Its important to me that my films are visually strikingthe tinsel in the hair does exactly that.

Madison picked three colors for dimension: a dusty rose, magenta, and dark purple.

Applying it took six hours, double her estimated time.

She had some monster bruises, and a lot of her skin is showing, Johnson points out.

Whenever Mikey put it on, she felt like the character was complete, Johnson says.

But in the latter half Anis makeup is almost entirely stripped away.

We used fake eyelashes as her security blanket in her girlfriend look, Johnson says.

Then during the home invasion, those come off and shes not wearing much makeup.

Shes really rocking her natural beauty for a lot of the movie.

The nails, on the other hand, remain extra throughout.

The nails go hand in hand with that line of work because theyre so alluring, Sierakowski says.

Sex work is work, and these people should be celebrated.

Sierakowski adds: Dancing takes a lot of energyphysically, mentally, and emotionally.

I have such major respect for the people who do it.

(Thats very true to Sean, Johnson notes.

Hes just so real and down to earth but also fun and cool.)

It was an emotional moment, getting her ready one last time together, Sierakowski recalls.

And after Mikey put her lip liner on, she was like, I feel like Ani again.
