On Instagram, makeup is typically used to craft mind-blowing works of art.

I've seen makeup artists completely transform themselves into various celebrities and even Disney characters.

This time, I'm taking a look at Middle East-based artist Saint Hoax, who transformed a portrait of Kanye West into Kim Kardashian West!

According to Daily Mail, the self-described "sociopolitical activist" and "pseudonymous satirist" used his artistic contouring skills to transform the 38-year-old musician into his reality-TV star wife. The results? Well, they'll certainly blow you away.

Saint Hoax completed the makeup transformation using an assortment of foundation and other cosmetics.

A description of his work on his website reveals his purpose. The description says,

An embedded infatuation with pop culture and politics drove Saint Hoax to share his... vision. Hoax combines tangible and digital mediums to create beautiful visual lies that tell an ugly truth.

Check out the videos below for a closer look at his transformations!

Satirical artist Saint Hoax transformed a portrait of Kanye West into Kim Kardashian West using a handful of beauty products.

In his latest art pieces, Hoax was able to prove "the power of contouring" with just the blink of an eye. He even transforms Jay Z into Beyoncé.

Each of these pieces is part of his series titled "Fame Drags You Out." Here, he transforms Drake into Nicki Minaj.
