Make-up expert Kyne Santos shows us how to transform into Salvador Dalí's Mae West-inspired artwork

Our go-to makeup expert Kyne Santos (aka Online Kyne) is back with a look inspired by the work of surrealist artist Salvador Dalí.

In this video, Kyne takes Dalí's fascination with American actress and sex symbol Mae West to the next level. Dalí created several pieces of work around Mae West — including a sofa inspired by her lips and a mind-bending room inspired by her face and signature blonde curls (housed at his museum in Figueres, Spain). Now thanks to Kyne, you can have Mae West's face-inspired room on your own face. It's too surreal. Dalí would approve.

Watch Exhibitionists on Friday nights at 12:30 a.m. (1 NT) and Sundays at 3:30 p.m. (4NT) on CBC Television.
