Logos
Variable logos inspired by cut and paste, DIY style punk zines.

Graphic Elements
Sharp lines and overlapping elements to create the layered, imperfect effect like band stickers on the bathroom wall of a music venue.
Photo Treatment
Black and white bitmap photos to add some grit and texture, as well as callback to the brand’s grassroots, punk inspiration. Isolated colors for makeup to emphasize the artistry and impact of makeup as a tool of self-expression.
