Andrés Velencoso dons androgynous makeup looks in an editorial by photographer Richard Burbridge. The model is outfitted by wardrobe stylist Jodie Barnes who dresses him in solid-colored and printed pieces that are designed to match his vivid cosmetics.

Gracing the Spring/Summer 2015 issue of Fantastic Man, the 'Made Up' image series challenges traditional beauty ideals. The photoshoot embraces androgynous makeup looks that are created by beauty expert Peter Philips. In this exclusive, Peter experiments with subtle and [bold cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanels-spring-2025) and showcases hot pink lipsticks, blue eyeshadows and rosy blush applications on his moustached model.

In addition to those cosmetics, the makeup artist also enhances model Andrés' face with the help of sleek eyeliner and lash-extending mascara.
