Don't you wish you could become someone else for a day? How about a celebrity even? Well apparently, this is no struggle for make-up artist and queen Aurelio Sanchez who has closed down drag shows with his jaw dropping transformations into some pretty famous divas. Aurelio uses his skills to transform into some of the most famous entertainers of the world, and yet his work is so eerily realistic, it seems hard to notice that it's not the celebrities themselves. Needless to say, his social media has blown up, and he's leaving quite the mark on the drag circuit with his looks. I follow him on his Instagram. I dare say his Cher may even be better than that of Chad Michaels. Aurelio is always influenced by everything around him and wants to keep learning and growing as a person and an artist. He says the hardest part to the transformations is taking it all off, as he really enjoys the looks, and it can take hours to transform and sometimes weeks to prepare for a shoot or a drag show, so he tries to enjoy the final result as much as possible. Of course, the most challenging part is not the make-up itself, but the process and essence of creating a character and delivering the illusion of the person as close as possible. I can believe that. I always hated taking the make-up off after being in drag, as it never ceased to amaze me how different I looked in drag, and friends always loved it too. It's crazy what just make up can do. But this is other level. It's truly amazing and I have not been left yet with my jaw closed with his looks. And just how freakin' hot is he? That smile!!! Aurelio could show me more than just make up tips!!! Yes he could!
