28 • THE ARTISAN FALL 2025 ZOË: Our actress, though an adult, played a 15-year-old and even younger. I created two looks: a nearly make-up-free style to enhance her natural beauty, and a slightly more polished look for a teen heading to a city carnival. I loved the NARS light reflecting foundations I used for her, creating coverage but looking like "just skin." For her look as a 12-year-old, we softened her brows, removed all eye make-up, and minimized foundation, combined with her natural hair that was very effective. MICHAEL: Ursula also did Presley's younger brother, James, who has naturally curly hair which she enhanced by using a coil comb to define his texture. His overall style was magnified with hair creams and curl jellies. ZOE: Sinatra, portrayed by Julianne Nicholson, was one of our most complex characters. One moment she's a grieving mother, and in the next scene, she's orchestrated the poisoning of a beloved FBI agent. MICHAEL: To achieve Sinatra's look, I begin with a round- brush blowout and finish with a flat iron to create natural waves and texture. The structure and subtle details of the style reinforce Sinatra's composed yet commanding presence. ZOË: One of Julianne's first requests to me was not to cover her freckles, so we landed on a tinted moisturizer for a base and her younger scenes we played with a warmer skin tone and brighter neutrals to contrast with her look in Paradise City which slowly becomes less and less make-up as her world starts to unravel. President Cal Bradford is portrayed by James Marsden. In the Season 1 finale, President Bradford's hair styling and make-up played a vital role in visually tracking his emotional unraveling.
