Future Faces - Meet the New Beauty Stars
Marie Claire - UK|April 2016

Fashion, music, art and culture have always influenced beauty ideals. And now social media and phone screens are defining it too. We talk exclusively to the stars of Calvin Klein’s ck2 campaign to find out what beauty means to a new generation.

Future Faces - Meet the New Beauty Stars

VICTORIA BRITO, 23, Brazil [with Sung Jin Park]

‘Beauty means freedom. It’s not about “this is what beauty is supposed to be”. I’m like a chameleon;I can transform my look, and my girlfriend has an androgynous style, too. There are no defined roles or aesthetics – for instance she’s Jamaican with short blonde hair, brown eyes and strong brows.

I live in New York and, although it’s a place of opportunity, it doesn’t smell great. So, I wake up, shower, moisturise, then spritz ck2 [£53 for 100ml] behind my ears and present myself to the world. If you smell good and look good, your foot is 50 per cent through the door.

My beauty icon is Iman. I had the amazing privilege of meeting her when I was 14. She was guest editing for a magazine called Trace and handpicked me to do a shoot called Black Girls Rule. She embraced me and I will never forget that, or her.

Having 131k Instagram followers is a good thing, but it’s hard work. Put it this way, I just walked into Starbucks and a guy said, “You’re vickatrillion on Instagram!” I’m still trying to get used to Insta-fame, but I have to be careful who I make friends with for that reason, too.

What do I want in life? Happiness, and that comes in unique ways. I also want my career to break down barriers and to work on more creative, visual stuff, like break-dancing on Instagram to the songs of the moment.

I listen to hip hop and R&B. Chris Brown and Rihanna are on my playlist. I’m also obsessed with Justin Bieber’s single Sorry right now.
