Futuristic Eyeshadow Editorials

Photographer Jamie Nelson Captures the Bold Makeup Looks for Nylon

Talented photographer Jamie Nelson recently shot stunning model Zanna Van Vorstenbosch for the up-and-coming August 2014 issue of hipster fashion magazine Nylon. The shoot surrounded fanciful makeup looks filled with exuberant rosy hues.

This technicolor editorial focused solely on bold makeup looks for the hot summer seasons. Makeup artist Jenny Smith decked Vorstenbosch out in a series of chromatic cosmetic looks that rendered the fair porcelain beauty unbelievably dark and edgy. The shoot, fittingly titled 'Brave New World,' captured several futuristic pink eyeshadow looks. The rosy pigment began at Vorstenbosch's eyelids and effortlessly traveled down to her cheekbones as the eyeshadow doubled up as blusher. Vorstenbosch's bold makeup looks were complemented with thick mascara, shimmering lips and cornrowed hair.
