Eszter Magyar is the makeup artist behind Makeupbrutalism, the most irreverent Instagram account on the platform, which since 2018 has been publishing controversial looks to empower users to approach beauty differently.
Eszter’s subversive approach provokes the viewer who, in front of extreme make-up done with unconventional products, questions the sense and effectiveness of social network beauty standards and trends.

Born to tell a story that is different from the ordinary, Makeupbrutalism brings together the unique creations of her founder: bold, extravagant and sometimes painful make-up that is so excessive as to be grotesque.
In her creations, make-up inverts every trend, violates every custom and criticizes the social media trend that fuels the waste of beauty products.

Eszter Magyar thus responds to her creativity and in the meantime gives an alternative to those who follow her: you can use make-up to show your point of view, emphasise your diversity and demonstrate that is not only beauty but also a playful, creative and controversial form of art and communication.

See some of her creations here and follow her on Instagram to discover all her work.
