The first book on the work of make-up artist Lucy Bridge, made in close collaboration with creative director Veronica Ditting. Ten specially commissioned stories by leading photographers sit alongside "Looks in Progress", behind-the-scenes shots that reveal Bridge's process and way of working. Her work challenges conventional ideas of beauty, and her use of colour and texture is bold and expressive. Carlijn Jacobs's story pushes dramatic colour and experimental texture into exaggerated, dynamic looks. Sam Rock's photographs document expressive body painting that blurs the line between make-up and clothing. With more than 380 images, the book is a rich source of inspiration for anyone interested in beauty, image-making and visual culture.
