Description

This close-up portrait from the Monroe project for Beauty Papers features model Alex Consani in a striking editorial configuration. The subject's face is altered with transparent lifting tape and fine metal pins attached near the temple and ear, pulling the skin back. Photographed by Oliver Hadlee Pearch with styling by Vanessa Reid, hair by Olivier Schawalder, and makeup by Sam Visser, the image emphasizes high-concept beauty styling. The lighting is clean and directional, casting soft shadows and highlighting the detailed textures of the skin, freckles, and pins against a neutral grey background.
