# Shadowy Supermodel Snaps 'Sparkle' by Natalia Madejska Tells a Subtle Beauty Story By Erin Kirkpatrick | Published 2012-05-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkle-by-natalia-madejska References: [designscene.net](http://www.designscene.net/2012/05/sparkle-natalia-madejska.html) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/nataliamadejska) 'Sparkle' by Natalia Madejska was a collaboration of the Austrian-born fashion photographer and makeup artist Manuela Holzl. Madejska and Holzl teamed up in order to capture an elegant, [minimalist beauty story](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit).

In the [black and white photographs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25), it is more difficult to see the illuminating add-ons, adding a hint of subtlety. In the two colored photographs, one is able to see the extent of the sparkles spread on the model's exterior.
