Superb makeup can take on an artistic form, creating a picture perfect photo. With saturated colors, luscious lips, eye-popping red, pink and with a dash of glitter, these images are a example of perfection and cleverly control art direction. These beautifully painted faces are the end result for the makeup artist who uses the face as a canvas for creation; it sets a tone for a very creative approach in the cosmetic industry.
These photos tell a story of flawless beauty, at times reminding me of old Hollywood starlets and other times it’s a 70’s pop-art movement. This makeup is bright, smoky, sensual. It’s perfect!
