Singer Lee Hyori has channeled the colorful style of iconic artist Andy Warhol for her latest pictorial with ‘Clio‘.

On February 14th, the cosmetics brand released this still-cut from their 2012 Spring/Summer collection. Bright, vivid colors seem to be the mainstay of the collection — emerald greens, cerulean blues, canary yellows and bubblegum pinks work together on a canvas of peach tones for a brilliant effect. The makeup artists for this shoot were careful to leave Hyori’s cheeks untouched, since she already carried loud nails and eyes.
