Anna Kirikova's Latest Beauty Feature Highlights Expressive Cosmetics

— September 5, 2016 — Fashion
Photographer Anna Kirikova's latest beauty feature highlights linear makeup applications that are showcased in a palette of bright blue, violet, yellow and pink tones. The makeup is loosely applied to resemble free-hand, lined drawings. While not ideal for everyday wear, this editorial's cosmetics are conceptual and captivating.

While minimalism dominated the last few fashion seasons -- both in terms of clothing and beauty picks -- self-expression and artistry has once again returned. This beauty feature is a great example of the fashion industry's newfound appreciation for imaginative and artistic makeup that opposes bare-faced applications in exchange for something more dynamic and eye-catching.

Nastya F of TANN Model Management stars in this editorial and collaborates with beauty artist Taya Joy who is responsible for both her hair and makeup looks.
