Dew first, gold after.

The category sits between two shelves, so the set is built in two halves. The first is cool and wet: white walls, slicked-back hair, a dewy finish catching every highlight. A pink lip tint goes on with a wand, a glass serum bottle is held at the collarbone, a lime-green balm is lifted to the cheek like a compact.

The lime balm is the colour accent of the series, the only saturated object in a white room. In one frame the jar is open, in the next the closed lid is pressed to the cheekbone with a grin. It is product demonstration through play, the kind of frame that reads in a scroll without a caption.

The second half moves to sand and shadow. A gold shimmer sits on the cheekbones and shoulders, the lip turns a warm terracotta, and the products change to white: a cream jar, a slim bottle, a soft tube. The same idea, skincare that leaves colour behind, now in the light of late afternoon.
