This photo shoot features the same artistic lines and [intense eyebrows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-makeup-product) found in [anime makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animeinspired-glasses), but in a way that doesn't look quite so cartoonish. Click through the gallery above to see more images from Mamuka Kikalishvili's 'Anna & Tamta,' and you'll see what I mean. These makeup looks incorporate white and charcoal colors in harmony, with expertly-applied [extended eyeliner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bigshow-multiuse-eyeshadow-pen) and super-dark Spock brows.
