Mika Curella, Make-up Artist, New York

Description

This close-up vertical portrait captures a person with artfully applied blue and silver eye makeup, featuring bold, smudged pigments on the eyelids and dark lashes. The subject's hands are positioned near the face, with fingers partially obscuring the view in a soft foreground blur. Dark, wavy hair frames the face, falling across the forehead and cheek. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting the contours of the skin and the metallic sheen of the eyeshadow. The background is a neutral grey studio backdrop, keeping the focus entirely on the striking cosmetic artistry by Mika Curella.
