This Asian Artist Shows Off Her Brilliant Makeup Skills By Transforming Herself To Look Like Different Celebrities
It's amazing yet honestly kind of creepy at the same time.
Nowadays, it is quite easy to pretend that you are someone you're not, thanks to the growing existence of editors like Photoshop or Pixlr, which can fool people or simply be used for fun. There is also the increasing popularity of "deepfakes," which are real photos or videos of people overlaid with different faces—making it easy for individuals to deceive whoever they want with these fake contents.
People now use deepfake technology for visual effects, and some even overlay fake faces (a celebrity's, for that matter) on racy videos just to attract views. Many industries may also use this as part of their digital strategies to combat extremist groups or interact with specific individuals they are targeting.
However, some people don't need technology or deepfakes to create a completely different appearance. Meet gillianisme, an Asian makeup artist on TikTok who creates content by transforming herself into various celebrities—and she does it excellently!
Gillian is living proof that one does not necessarily have to rely on technology to alter their identity; they only need a couple of brushes, some contour, and mascara. It's definitely not as easy as it looks, though, because looking at her work, she truly possesses remarkable skill!
She can transform herself into any person or character, and regardless of gender, race, or ethnicity, there is always a guarantee that Gillian can become that person. She has transformed herself to look like Scarlett Johansson, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Wanda Maximoff (her Scarlet Witch transformation, in particular), Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Chan, and many more!
The results are always astounding, and it's truly marvelous to consider how far Gillian's makeup skills and talent can go. It's no surprise that her videos have climbed to the top of TikTok's algorithm, and she definitely deserves the millions of likes and views she receives for her makeup looks!

It's both astonishing and amazing to think about how Gillian can skillfully transform herself using just her own makeup materials, making her eerily similar to her references—it can actually seem creepy to see! This kind of talent, sadly, is somewhat underrated, but fortunately, she is able to showcase it on her social media, where her work is definitely appreciated by her millions of viewers!
