Some women spend thousands on surgery to look more like Angelina Jolie. Promise Phan does it in minutes with some lip liner and an eye pencil. She can also transform into Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift or even Michael Jackson on a whim.

Call her 'the human chameleon,' or as many have dubbed her in recent weeks, 'the Internet's newest beauty guru.' The young video blogger's talent for transforming into celebrities with little more than a blush brush and some eye shadow is changing the way people think about makeup

Posting under the innocuous username dope2111, Phan has churned out viral YouTube hits using her face as a blank canvas and celebrities as her muses. 

A makeup artist's guide to runway-ready skin 

"I have drawn portraits ever since I was a little girl," Phan tells Shine. "Now I use makeup instead of a pencil to draw with, and my face instead of paper to draw on." 

Last week, she transformed into Mona Lisa using some unconventional makeup approaches. She began with an Elmer's glue stick on her brow, and used scar wax to reshape her nose. In less than five minutes, she was worthy of the Louvre. 

Phan, a petite 22-year-old Nepalese American, doesn't stop at female celebrities. In January, she made a jaw-dropping transformation into pop star Drake. Using eye shadow, a stippling blush brush and a healthy glob of hair gel, she obtained not only the stubble and bone structure of the teen heartthrob, but also the swagger.

 I read that on yahoo, the last paragraph says that she is Nepalese American. I don't have any further information. It's good to see someone doing a great job, and if she is Nepalese, she makes us proud.

She is a very talented lady. Check her out on youtube. She is a Nepali married to a Vietnamese, that's why her last name is Phan.
But I gotta add that she is posing the wrong way for that Mona Lisa look-alike painting. Mona Lisa posed on the other side.

@bionerd , Don't worry she may end up being known to all one day ,well prabal gurung is already in a big platform ,even though i'm not into fashion and all but i  inclduing most pple know him coz he is already covered with top media as well as he's in that top place which made the difference i guess, well she (phan) is also getting there and surely many will know her soon ,hopefully (finger cross) .

bionerd , मेरो विचारमा कुनै पनि व्यक्ति सफल हुनुमा समय लाग्नु जरुरि नै छ | प्रगतिपथमा अथक र बेझिज्हक मिहेनेत्को परिणामले नै सफल व्यक्तिको परिचय बिस्तारै संसार माझमा फैलिंनछ | तेसैको परिणाम आजको यो समाचार हो | तपाइले भने झैँ day 1 बाट उनलाई कसैले चिनेन भन्नु मा अलि खोट छ |  अनि अर्को कुरा मैले प्रबल गुरुङ लाई amazon बाट चिनेको २ वर्ष अगाडी | कुनै एउटा design मा नेपालीको मिल्दो जुल्दो नाम brandname मा  देखेसी research गर्दा केटो नेपालको र स्थापित brand name को धनी भनेर चाल पाए र गौरब महसुस गरे |  येसरी सिधै सबैलाई  एकै भाडोमा मुसी पो नहाल्नु पर्ने थियो कि ?
