Watch this male Instagram star morph into Emma Watson
If you've ever wondered what it takes to turn yourself into a Hollywood star, this seriously impressive make-up artist just showed us exactly how a celebrity-inspired beauty transformation is done.
Filipino actor, TV host and Instagram star Paolo Ballesteros used his incredible make-up skills, along with the help of a wig, to morph into Emma Watson. Thanks to the perfectly placed freckles, rosy pink lips and side-swept fringe, it's safe to say he is the spitting image of the Harry Potter star.

After Watson's doppelgänger freaked everyone out earlier this year, Ballesteros could be her long-lost twin. And his make-up skills are even more impressive when you see the actor up close IRL...

This isn't the first time Ballesteros has worked his make-up magic and blown away his two million Instagram followers, though.
His previous celebrity transformations include Wonder Woman, Gigi Hadid and, most recently, Lily Collins, although the Watson makeover has to be his most authentic yet.
