When it comes to deciding between cosmetic products, seeing what they look like on models or magazine ads can make a big difference, and these stunning close-up beauty editorials will give fashionistas some great tips on how to do their makeup.
Even though ordinary fashion spreads often feature models wearing makeup of some sort, the clothing designs are often at the forefront of the shoot, but these close-up beauty editorials are putting a much larger emphasis on such things as eyeshadow, blush and lipstick color. Showcasing a model's face up-close is a fantastic way to market the cosmetics used to accentuate her look.
From magnified eyeshadow editorials to bold beehive beauty editorials, these close-up beauty looks are demonstrating the types of stunning techniques that can be done with cosmetics.
