Editor’s Letter

August 2024

Sally Morris Editor-in-chief Welcome to the Spellbound Brushstrokes August Issue!

As August ushers in the final days of summer, fantasy makeup undergoes a mesmerizing metamorphosis, seamlessly blending the whimsical essence of warm, sun-drenched days with the approaching mystique of autumn’s golden embrace. This transitional month witnesses makeup artists crafting ethereal masterpieces that capture the essence of both seasons, creating a visual symphony that celebrates the changing of nature’s palette.

In this magical interlude, makeup palettes burst with a harmonious fusion of vibrant summer hues and rich autumnal tones. Artists skillfully incorporate shimmering golds and lustrous bronzes, evoking memories of sun-kissed skin and lazy beach days, while simultaneously introducing deeper, more mysterious shades like lush forest greens and enigmatic midnight blues that hint at the cooler nights to come.

Glitter, in all its sparkling glory, takes center stage in these fantastical creations. With an eco-conscious twist, artists opt for biodegradable options, meticulously crafting constellation-like patterns that dance across cheekbones and eyelids. These twinkling designs pay homage to the starry nights of late summer, when the sky seems to hold endless possibilities and dreams take flight on the warm evening breeze.

The artistry doesn’t stop at a mere sprinkling of glitter; intricate designs come to life on faces, transforming them into living canvases of fantasy and wonder. Delicate fairy wings, rendered with gossamer-fine strokes, flutter at the corners of eyes. Enchanted forest motifs spring forth, with tiny woodland creatures peeking out from behind painted foliage. Mystical beings from the realms of imagination are brought into existence through the skilled hands of makeup maestros, their features carefully delineated to blur the lines between reality and fantasy.

Adding an extra layer of enchantment to these already magical looks, artists incorporate elements that glow under blacklight. This innovative touch brings an otherworldly dimension to summer’s twilight festivities, as faces illuminate with an ethereal radiance that seems to capture the very essence of fireflies and faerie lights.

Next month we will be welcoming you back during the change in seasons, ushering in the autumn season - we look forward to seeing you there!
