Breaking out of winter’s tight grip gets easier with punched up beauty looks of the neon variety. In the latest MDCBeauty story, freckled wonder Carissa Pinkston stands out in painterly prismatic looks softly captured by photographer Matthew Priestley. Through all the smoke and mirrors, makeup artist Tiffany Patton chisels vivid colors into flattering shapes with highlighter touches with Carissa’s copper coils perfectly fluffed by Clay Nielsen. This modern experimentation with color and shape is accented by quirky styling selections from Rachel Gilman.
