Who here is a fan of those catfish videos that became popular on TikTok? You know the videos in which ladies show themselves without makeup, only to quickly give you the glammed-up version?

If that's why you joined TikTok, then I have the ultimate transformation for you. Something tells me that once you see it, you will be shocked. Check it out, and let me know what you think.

 TikTok user Alyssa Segrist is quite the star.

She boasts 345,000 followers so far. But her latest video is the one everyone is talking about. In it, you can see Alyssa — who wears dentures — with no makeup on, missing her eyebrows and all.

And then the clip suddenly reveals a different side.

This time Alyssa is all glammed-up. She sings along to Kelis’ "Milkshake" song, which I think is pretty appropriate, lol. And the difference in the two looks is pretty unbelievable. You have to see it for yourself.

Check this out:

Whoa! What did I tell you, huh? It's pretty mind-blowing. Am I right? So apparently, this lady has had some dental issues, and that's why she's missing her teeth. But when she wants to look all made-up, that's when she uses her false teeth.

If she isn't the ultimate catfish I don't know who is, ha, ha.

This lady has got it down. And it seems that the people who are digging this video agree with it, too. She's been getting quite the praise for her makeup skills.

Boy, I wish I was as good at makeup as her.

And so do a lot of people, as I have read in the comments. If you struggle with this, Alyssa said it took her some time to master this skill. So don't give up! Your time will come, too.

As they say, practice makes perfect, no?

I think it's cool that she's showing people that even if you have challenges, the power of makeup can make up for it. It certainly can't be easy to have to wear dentures at the age of 22. Am I right?

She even manages to paint over her missing eyebrows.

Oh my goodness. That makes a huge difference, no? I feel like my makeup isn't finished unless I have my brows perfected. So I can somehow understand what it would feel like to not have any at all.

She also shows off an impressive cat-eye liquid eyeliner, too.

Now, that's something I was never really good at I admit. These days I don't even bother with eyeliner at all. So kudos to her for creating this dramatic look.

So what do you think of this video?

Didn't I tell you this is the ultimate catfish transformation or what? It's probably the most dramatic one I have seen in a while. It definitely inspires me to take my makeup game up a notch. This lady can teach me a thing or two, that's for sure. How about you? Are your makeup skills on point, or could you use a lesson, too?
