Magazine Covers - April 2011

Verve - Anushka Sharma
Elle - Lisa Haydon

My issue with both the covers is the model faces. Anushka is barely recognizable - I understand using photoshop to make models look flawless or thin but to make Anushka not look like herself is self-defeating - isnt her face the selling point?
I love the color composition of Elle - very impactful and spring-y but Lisa's makeup is so horrid! Why?
