Playfully abstract, it really showcases the artistry behind cosmetic application. The photoshoot itself is simple and fresh, letting the model's makeup, hair and accessories stand out colorfully. Shot by Copenhagen-based photographer Flemming Leitorp, the Danish Finest photo series clearly demonstrates the work of some of Denmark's finest, hence the title. The photoshoot was retouched by Anders Westergaard Poulsen of LIQUIT and modeled by the beautiful Fanny from Elite Model Management. Of course, the true stars of the Danish Finest photo series has to be stylist Sarah P as well as hair and makeup artist Sidsel Marie Bøg. Together, they created an eye-catching shoot that shows how makeup can be an art form. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Abstract Makeup:** The Danish Finest photo series showcases the artistic potential of abstract makeup. - **Fresh and Colorful:** The photoshoot emphasizes the trend of fresh and colorful makeup looks. - **Makeup as Art:** The Danish Finest series highlights the concept of makeup as a form of art. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Beauty and Cosmetics:** The Danish Finest series presents opportunities for disruptive innovations in the beauty and cosmetics industry. - **Fashion and Photography:** The collaboration between the photographer, stylist, and makeup artist opens up opportunities for disruptive innovations in the fashion and photography industry. - **Modeling and Talent Management:** The Danish Finest series showcases the potential for disruptive innovations in the modeling and talent management industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Beauty Palettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contour-and-highlight-palettes.md) - [Restyled Cinematic Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign.md) - [Surrealist Beauty Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toiletpaper-magazine.md) - [Mermaid-Inspired Makeup Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shells-jewel-collection.md) - [Grungy Movie-Inspired Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/half-magic-beauty.md) - [Floral High-End Makeup Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camlia-futura.md) - [Patisserie-Inspired Beauty Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/este-lauder-x-ladure.md) - [Beauty-Branded Film Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-basel-miami-beach.md) - [Fairytale-Inspired Beauty Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fairytales-collection.md)
