This Dazed and Confused September 2013 editorial will shock you with its daring experimentation into the world of make up.
Although models Bridget Hall, Casey Legler, Danielle Zinaich and Esther De Jong all appear in this photo shoot, its hard to tell who's who behind all of the heavy and dramatic smears of make up across each of their faces. Reminiscent of Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight, the model's rock stark white faces filled with dark make up and blood red lips. Photographer Daniel Jackson captures them against a red background which adds to the sinister theme of the shoot while make up artist Francelle shines with her amazingly devilish creations.
The Dazed and Confused September 2013 photo shoot was also styled by Alastair McKimm along side hair stylist Esther Langham.
