A RuPaul's Drag Race star gives Kris Jenner a real run for her money in a new time-lapse video, transforming into a near-identical lookalike of the Kardashian matriarch and momager using nothing but make-up and accessories.

At the start of the video, drag queen Alexis Michelle, 32, from New York, is seen totally bare-faced, wearing a backwards cap and a plain T-shirt - as far from Kris's normally-glamorous appearance as possible.

But within less than two minutes, the talented make-up guru undergoes an astonishing transformation, taking viewers through the complex make-up, hair, and costume changes required to turn her into a convincing Kris lookalike.

Before and after: RuPaul's Drag Race star Alexis Michelle transformed into Kardashian-Jenner matriarch Kris Jenner, documenting the lengthy process on camera

Step by step: The drag queen has to go through multiple steps in order to achieve the perfect complexion, highlight and contour and perfect Kris's signature look

Eye make-up on fleek: Kris, 61, is known for her seriously smokey eye make-up, and Alexis went to great lengths in order to imitate it

Spot the difference! The final touch to the look was a dark wig and a pair of diamond earrings

From start to finish, it's clear that the real keys to copying Kris's look are full eyelashes, smoky black eyeliner, high-arched eyebrows and, of course, the perfect contour.

The cherry on top is Alexis's nude lip liner and gloss duo, and a wig uncannily similar to the business mom's famous tresses.

Starting with a smile and donning a backwards baseball cap, the star begins her transformation by gluing the eyebrows into a high arched shape.

Alexis then applies several layers of foundation and concealer to give her a face a more Kris-esque appearance.

Next up is the contour - a beauty step that no Kardashian-Jenner would dare to skip - and one which takes Alexis a fair amount of concentration and work to perfect.

Another element of Kris's signature look that can't be missed is the smokey eye, and it's here that Alexis's skills really shine, as she is seen applying endless layers of shadow, liquid eyeliner and mascara, before topping off the exaggerated look with some false eyelashes.

Working it: Even before adding the wig, Alexis looked incredibly similar to Kris

The icing on the cake! However it was when the wig was in place that the resemblance between the two became quite uncanny

Uncannily Kris: Not only does Michelle mimic Kris's make-up perfectly, she also has the posture, accessories and sparkling down to a tee

But it's not just the make-up that Alexis manages to nail; she also perfects the businesswoman's style - donning a white jacket that is nearly identical to one worn by Kris in the past - her penchant for dazzling accessories, and her sassy attitude.

The New York performer was a contestant in the show's ninth season along with 13 other queens in the fight for the crown and the $100,000 prize.

The queen auditioned for a spot on RuPaul's Drag Race every year since Season 2 before finally making the cut.

Michelle snagged fifth place in the competition.

She might not have won the top spot, but she has 123,000 Instagram followers who devour her various makeup looks.

Today the star is on a nation-wide War on the Catwalk tour with other season nine contestants.
