Description

A close-up side-profile portrait captured against an overexposed, high-key white background. The subject features dense silver glitter makeup applied across the eye and temple area, catching the light. Bare shoulders and neck contours are highlighted by subtle edge lighting, with loose brown hair brushed away from the face. Photographed by Xiuyu Chang with styling by Wei Mao and hair by Xiang Zi for Esquire China's Local Heroes project.
