Instagrammer mimles does some impressive optical illusions on her own face, but this is impressive even by her high standards: she turned her own head upside down . Scroll through her post to see how she did it.

See my stories for comparison! This was also largely inspired by the recent drawings of @miles_art and an upside-down face makeup illusion done by my talented and beautiful friend/ex-colleague @jaylenetyme who was inspired by @glenalen! Jaylene was my makeup mentor when I was a student at @blancheworld and her celebrity makeup transformations had played a large part in inspiring me to try out illusions when I first began my journey! Follow @jaylenetyme for beautiful makeup artistry! I also recommend you guys to check out @promisetamang who has also done a similar upside-down face and it's incredible! I remember following her Xanga page looong before I became a makeup artist and I've always thought that her creativity is absolutely inspiring!
