The 'Blossoming Beauty' editorial in Vogue Korea's February 2014 issue sees Kim Sun Hee wearing florals in an unconventional way. Rather than donning a tried-and-true floral pattern, Hee models an array of floral-inspired makeup looks that think outside of the box. The vivid palette she wears mirrors the colors of the botanical arrangements next to her, offering visual continuity throughout the spread.
Though these beauty looks are probably a little too extravagant for everyday street wear, it's worth looking at Mother Nature for inspiration when picking out your next lipstick hue.
Both the bouquet arrangements and Hee's masterfully applied makeup are works of art in the Vogue Korea February 2014 issue, photographed by Hyea Won Kang.
