It's hard not to be completely enamored with Dana Taylor in this beauty editorial. Although the looks are hand's down more artistic than realistic, the use of [bright purple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radiant-lilac) in such a creative way might inspire some women to have a little more fun with their makeup routine as the winter weather let's up and spring can be felt in the air.

Shot by photographer Billy Rood, Dana Taylor appears in the latest issue of Fifty8 Magazine. She was the muse of [makeup artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maczine) Liz Olivier, who appeared to use her more as a blank canvas than a model. The visual striking looks were complemented with [cool, slick, grungy hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aging-disgracefully-collection) by stylist Monae Everett and matching purple nails by manicurist Omary.
