Going Bare: Industry Heavy Weights Go Sans Makeup For Viva Modeling Agency

While we all would like to assume that the beautiful people we see in magazines are the result of fabulous makeup and excellent retouching, that isn't necessarily true. To celebrate the launch of Viva Modeling Agency in London, model icons Kirsty Hume, Edita Vilkeviciute, Natalia Vodianova, and Raquel Zimmerman posed for photographer Scott Trindle completely makeup free and entirely un-retouched. The Result? Beautiful images filled with natural beauty.

While the whole "beautiful people with no makeup on" thing has been done in gossip publications many times, it is hard to be impressed knowing that the images produced have been manipulated via PhotoShop. The shoot for Viva Modeling agency is quite different from those gossip publications in that what you see is truly what you get. In the image of Raquel Zimmerman you are able to see small scaring underneath her right eye. While this is technically an imperfection it is what makes the image so captivating to look at because even with the blemish, Raquel is still beautiful. The other women look incredible as well with their natural flaws and flaunt them with confidence.
