Due for your next brow appointment? Here’s a quick tip: Cancel it. The pro-imperfection beauty movement makes it mark on peepers, as seen on the runways of Chanel and Fendi. Skip the brow pencil and instead, use gel and comb upwards for a natural-looking fullness. Ditto eyeliner and falsies – mascara is all that’s needed to give lashes an extra lift. – SK

Difference.

The whimsical illustrations of lesley tang (www.lesleytang.com), aka yelselogy, wouldn’t be out of place in a gucci campaign. For the custom artwork opposite, she drew on her obsession with victorian ephemera for a visual socio-commentary on the current state of femininity. The full skirts from the period are imagined as bell jars and the women who don them turned into beautiful but ultimately ornamental specimens because. Tang’s message: “it can be looked at as a kind of commentary on how women were (and continue to be) portrayed.”
