The editorial starring model Elsa Andrade for Elle Vietnam centers around a different type of porcelain doll. Sleek and exotic, her Asian features are accentuated by artistic eyeliner strokes, red lips and perfectly powered skin. Not to mention the subtly sculptural shape of her raven black hair.
Lensed by photographer Xi Sinsong in collaboration with creative director Phuong My, the editorial starring Elsa Andrade for Elle Vietnam may showcase minimalist makeup looks, but they have been dramatically executed to prove to women that simple can be as eye-catching as flamboyant. Using only NARS Cosmetics, makeup artist Misha Shahzada painted the dark-haired beauty as though she were a canvas. Hairstylist Arturo Swayze perfected the studio looks a coif that is somehow both put together and ruffled.
