Morning light

Alina came to the trial with one request: nothing that would make her feel like a stranger to herself. We removed every layer that was not necessary and kept only light — a fine, glowing base, warm cheeks and lashes defined with a single soft line.

Her hair was left in its natural wave, lifted slightly at the root and softened with the fingers instead of a brush, so the shape stayed loose all day.

In photographs the makeup reads as skin. In person it reads as rest.
