    1. Your instinct was right! I can't believe I missed it... yes Richard Sharah of Visage Fade to Grey video fame did the make-up indeed! Well spotted. I wasn't sure as it looks a little different to his signature look.

  3. This spread is utterly, utterly, utterly IMMACULATE. The first photograph of the very top is outstanding. The make up work is flawless and so captivating!
