    Update, 6/15/15: After trying his hand at other members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan (see below!), Ballesteros transformed himself into Caitlyn Jenner, as well as her ex-wife Kris Jenner and stepdaughter Khloé Kardashian. 

    We think these latest borrowed-from-the-ladies looks are as gorgeous as they are impressive.

    Kim Kardashian's contoured cheekbones? Kylie Jenner's XXL pout? If this guy can pull 'em off, there's hope for women everywhere. 

    Paolo Ballesteros, a 32-year-old Filipino actor and makeup artist, has a mind-blowing superpower (also known as the art of makeup application) that allows him to transform into virtually any female celebrity. Over the past few days, he's unveiled extreme makeovers that've earned him doppelgänger comparisons to the newly-platinum Kardashian, Jenner, Fifty Shades of Grey's Dakota Johnson, Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore, and Cher. 

    Sure, he's a bit heavy-handed with his application, but if Ballesteros is teaching a master class in how to transform into Hollywood starlets for the day, sign us up.
