Manuela Balducci, Make-up Artist, Milan

Description

This extreme close-up macro beauty shot focuses on a single eye adorned with glossy, translucent blue gel droplets clustered across the eyelid, brow bone, and surrounding skin. The skin and eyelid are tinted in a matching cool blue tone, while the eyelashes and eyebrow remain dark and distinct beneath the gel beads. One prominent droplet melts downward across the closed lid crease, creating a fluid, textural effect. The lighting is soft and even, accentuating the high-gloss wet finish of the sculptural cosmetic application. This striking makeup artistry piece was created by Milan-based make-up artist Manuela Balducci.
