Smeared Cosmetic Captures

This Playing Fashion Editorial Features Red Lips and Smeared Cosmetics

— December 19, 2013 — Fashion
This crimson cosmetics series for Playing Fashion Magazine features smeared lipstick and smeared eye shadow. Model Roosmarijn de Kok sports some enchanting shades of red on her lips in this ravishing editorial, which is simply entitled 'Red.' Kok is hauntingly pale in these stunning cosmetic captures, which really helps to make her crimson lips pop.

This editorial is meant to be a kind of tribute to red cosmetics. These bold and romantic photos take traditional shades of red lipstick and make them stand out in unusual ways. In one shot Kok's lips look as if they've been covered in glitter. In another shot her lips have been darkened around the edges with some black lipstick, which gives them a vampiric vibe.

These edgy shots remind female viewers that red lipstick never goes out of style.
