For this beauty shoot, we worked with makeup artist Lochie Stonehouse and model Sophie to create a striking cover look inspired by the native flora and fauna of Aotearoa. Paua shell, kōwhai, and native flax and grasses were intricately woven into the makeup looks, adding texture and a connection to the landscape. The makeup focused on clean, sun-kissed skin, embodying the warmth and effortless feeling of a Kiwi spring summer.
