Sugar-Covered Lips

‘Portraits' by Frederic Frognier Takes a Sweet Approach to Close-Up

I'm a huge fan of the sugar-covered lips in 'Portraits' by Frederic Frognier. This photo set is unlike most close-ups in that the model's makeup is an edible treat. If this doesn't conjure up wintry sugarplum fantasies, I don't know what will.

Implications - Looks like these are definitely very Gaga-inspired and allow fashionable people to explore their own creativity. They give "divalicious" a literal meaning; dress up in dramatic diva wear and taste delicious at the same time!
