Heavily made-up Cara Delevingne almost unrecognisable on magazine cover

Cara Delevingne is undoubtedly one of the fashion industry’s most sought after models with countless runway appearances and beauty campaigns plastered across her CV.

After taking a brief hiatus from the catwalk to focus on her acting career, she’s back and looks unrecognisable on her latest cover shoot.

For LOVE magazine, the 26-year-old is pictured decked in theatrical make-up with burnt orange eyeshadow and powder pink blush dusted over her cheeks.

In an unsurprising move, the model delivers serious eyebrow envy with her iconic brows heavily pencilled in.

A studded Prada headpiece and crisp white shirt finishes the standout newsstand aesthetic which makes up one of three magazine covers in the publication’s #MovingLove series.

Yet despite her indisputable beauty, the model admits in the interview that she struggled with self perception growing up.

“My idea of beauty as a kid was that everything was beautiful,” she said. “But beauty to me was nature and animals and the sky.”

“Everything was beautiful. I didn’t necessarily think of people as beautiful, and definitely not that I was beautiful myself.”

In reference to her own experience with body image, she added: “The first time I really felt beautiful was when someone truly said that they loved me for me.”

But she’s not the only A-lister to appear in the biannual magazine’s #MovingLove series, as David Beckham also stars on one of the covers.

The former footballer is pictured sporting teal eyeshadow and smudged eyeliner on the cover decked in head-to-toe Dior.

In the interview, the father-of-four opened up about his childhood and dreams of becoming a professional footballer.

“I was always that kid in the corner that didn’t really say much,” he said. “I knew that once I was on the field, I was confident. It was all I ever wanted: to be a professional footballer.”
