I seriously can’t get enough of every single one of these looks. The ways the colors blend together so naturally on her face make it seem as though they’ve always been there, like she [Larsson] is a painting or mosaic. The looks not only define her facial features and structure, but they’re true exhibits of the fun I think makeup has been missing over the last few years. The world’s become so daunting and bleak, why shouldn’t we get to experience and take part in looks like this? They’re reminders of a different time, before social media was at the forefront of our decision making and color faded away. The looks are supposed to inspire you, leave you wanting to try them out yourself and see what you can come up with. The brighter the eyeshadow, the better!
I’ve got nothing but love, respect, adoration AND admiration for both Zara Larsson and Sophia Sinot and the beautiful, jaw-dropping, and inspiring work they’re doing together. Although the Midnight Sun tour ends later this year, we’ve still got some time to see what they come up with before summer is “over.” And I can’t wait.
