Candice Swanepoel transforms into Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe was hands down one of the most gorgeous women to have ever graced the earth, and if there is anyone who could do her remarkable beauty any justice, it is without a shadow of a doubt South African supermodel Candice Swanepoel.

The twenty-six year-old head turner took to Instagram on Thursday (January 8th) and shared a stunning behind-the-scenes snapshot with her nearly five million followers showing her amazing transformation into the late Hollywood sex symbol as part of her latest campaign for American cosmetics powerhouse Max Factor. The Victoria’s Secret Angel was dolled up by makeup and hair geniuses Pat McGrath (creative director) and Shay Ashual, respectively.

“Through my work with @maxfactor I’m lucky to be able to transform through makeup. Here @patmcgrathreal and @shayashual transformed me into Marilyn. Fact is Mr max factor was originally responsible for making Norma Jean into Marilyn all those years ago…It’s the perfect time of year to give yourself a dramatic new look or be more adventurous with your makeup. #glamjan #maxfactor,” Swanepoel captioned the photo.
