Modern Gothic Make Up Research

Julianne Moore Cover for T - Magazine





From these images i love the experimentation with the loose crimped hair. Direction and placement of even small sections of the hair over the face can give an impact immediately. It can really add character or the emotion being portrayed in the photo.

The middle image of the make up for Gareth Pu's collection is most striking and i love the use of exaggerated red eyeshadow creeping up to the brow bone. It's very bold but it works as a statement. I also spotted a subtle tear line coming down from the models eye on the left which is different and makes it stand out from the perfect runway tradition of make up.

The wet and sleek back hair ideas here creates a disturbing aspect of perfection. They also strengthen the focus of the strong make up on every feature of the face. The lips are gothic inspired but instead using contemporary colours and promoted as fashionable.
