Marc Jacobs Beauty has just dropped the cosmetics brand’s Fall 2014 campaign, and it’s a goodie. Photographed by David Simons, rising star Natalie Westling is shown with an electric blue smoky eye and pale, pale skin. Although the bright, shimmery eye makeup looks striking together with the her dark red hair, Westling’s skin is what stands out most about this ad.
The model is photographed with what appears to be a light dusting of foundation or powder — some may even be blended onto her lips — but apart from that, her skin is pretty much naked. Whatever retouching was done on this image, it must have been minimal, because you can practically see Westling’s pores! It’s almost NSFW.
As tFSer Nepenthes put it, “I appreciate the fact that you can see her skin texture, unlike so many other beauty campaigns.”
