Chiiz Volume 7 :Fashion Photography
When people stand in front of the mirror to have a good long look at themselves, they always hope to see a better reflection of themselves than what they have seen previously and with all this, they have grown conscious of how they appear and how comfortable they are with what they wear.Not only their clothes, but also their comfort level, express the sense of style and their conformity to the outer world.In this issue, what we have focussed on might not be the mainstream fashion and people might not get the hype that revolves around the fashion world but what we have here is something that is responsible for all that we have achieved so far in this industry. Be it natural beauty by Lynn Theisen, backstage brilliance by Ishaan Nair, or the street fashion by Rohit Arora which is now gaining popularity among the more prominent photographers.The interview with John Rawson is an eye opener. He is has been through it all andhis experiences form a great lesson for all of us. The series of Roshini Kumar with Suhail Nayyar is also a masterpiece in itself which is a true symbol of comfortable fashion statements. Rod Klein and Jorge Gonzalez’s underwater fashion photographs present an altogether different approach to see things.

With the promotion of natural<br />
beauty by Kim Kardashian and<br />
other celebrities, the idea of a “no<br />
makeup” makeup look, skincare has become<br />
an important factor in daily life. Good skin<br />
makes a perfect base and requires less makeup,<br />
just a bit of enhancement, appealing to people<br />
as everyday life continues to become busier and busier. Having<br />
a natural glow, evenly toned skin is now a standard many work<br />
towards through the use of various skin routines. In America, the<br />
average women’s skincare costs 8 dollars a day. This is also inspired<br />
by the K-beauty trend. Many Koreans find their skin as one of<br />
their most valuable assets. They practice rigorous ten step care skin<br />
routines on a daily basis, have specific clinics for skin care and are<br />
mainly inspired by K-drama stars and Kpop stars. As the fame of<br />
these idols from Korea spread all over the world so did their daily<br />
routines, their beautiful skin pulling in many people all over the<br />
world. As skin care becomes more popular people are also becoming<br />
more aware of the consequences of the chemicals present in skincare<br />
products, with the help of the internet. Many exfoliators contain<br />
beads that are non degradable, causing a lot of harm to the earth.<br />
Some of the chemicals found in skincare products actually cause<br />
more harm to skin than cleanse them. Through this research and the<br />
growth of veganism comes an entirely new form of skincare. It is still<br />
attempting to achieve the same goals but naturally. Many companies<br />
are beginning to make skincare products from all natural materials,<br />
such as clay, avocado, tea and many other materials. People are<br />
trying to push away animal cruelty, the use of animal products<br />
and return to their roots. Everyone is working backwards, back to<br />
when everything humans used came straight from the Earth. Many<br />
natural oils achieve the same effect as chemicals and are able to cater<br />
to all types of skin. The diversity of natural products, their ability to<br />
help all skin types and their ability to achieve skin standards without<br />
guilt make it very appealing to consumers.<br />
