diana carreiro (@diana_carreiro). We discovered this artist through her work with grey-haired model-du-jour Maye Musk and were hooked. Check out her Paper Dolls posts for spring/summer 2019 inspo—we can’t wait to try the white cat eye.

simone otis (@simoneotis). Remember those super natural-looking images for Shoppers Drug Mart’s winter campaign? Otis is the artist behind them. What we love? The gorgeous, real-looking skin, with freckles, fine lines and pores in all their glory.

ronnie tremblay (@ronnietremblay). Tremblay puts the ‘art’ into makeup artistry. We were captivated by her recent series with androgynous model Kris Lodu: Black eyeliner was used to scribble lines around the eyes and then acid-bright eyeshadows painted in abstract shapes.
