Beauty Editorial for Solstice
In the world of beauty editorials, there are few things more exciting than a brand new shoot that challenges our perceptions of beauty and pushes the boundaries of what we expect to see. That's exactly what we got with the latest editorial in Solstice Magazine, photographed by Eric Hason and featuring the stunning model Aja Brandman represented by State Management New York.
What makes this shoot so unique is the way in which Eric played with the concept of reflection and distortion, using a black Duvetyn fabric and mylar sheet to create an otherworldly effect that offsets Aja's natural beauty. The mylar sheet, which reflects and distorts light, gives the images a sense of dysmorphia that is both unsettling and captivating.
Of course, none of this would be possible without the expert skills of the makeup artist and hair stylist on set. Meeza Gee created a look that was both striking and subtle, emphasizing Aja's natural features while adding a touch of drama with bold eye makeup. Meanwhile, Kelly Mazzini's artful hairstyling brought a sense of texture and movement to the images, enhancing the overall sense of fluidity and distortion.
The end result is a series of images that are both beautiful and haunting, showcasing the power of art to challenge our perceptions and expand our understanding of what beauty can be. Whether you're a fan of fashion photography or just appreciate the artistry of makeup and hairstyling, this editorial is definitely worth a look.
As we move forward into a new era of beauty and self-expression, it's important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all definition of what makes someone beautiful. Instead, beauty is a constantly evolving concept that can be found in the most unexpected places. This editorial reminds us of that fact, and invites us to embrace the unconventional and the unexpected in all its forms.
But of course, none of this would be possible without the skillful application of makeup and hair styling. Meeza Gee used a range of high-quality products to create each look, including Cozzette Matte Eyeshadow, Dior Backstage Face and Body Foundation, Estée Lauder Double Wear Waterproof Gel Eye Pencil, Esum Brow Defining Pencil, and Estée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Mascara.
