“The skin is really beautiful and fresh, not too shiny.
There’s a softness to it.”
He added, “This look embodies the grungy, sad, pretty girl energy.”
“I think people are tired of looking perfect,” he said.

KVD beauty ambassador Sandra Saenz also remarked on today’s take on goth styles.

She also has plenty of pieces stockpiled for a range of gothic looks.
