Lust Object: The Beauty Book by Darren Tieste

These are the types of Lust Objects we adore: Beautiful things for a good reason and a great cause. Scarlett Johannsen graces the cover of The Beauty Book — A 312 page coffee table extravaganza where all proceeds go to brain cancer. Entirely shot by Aussie photographer Darren Tieste and produced with the help of Pantera Sarah, this project started three years ago when Tieste’s dear friend died of brain cancer. It created a spark in him to do more than just donate to the funeral — he wanted to create something bigger. Another good note: Some of the featured images were shot right here at Smashbox Studios!

The roster of contributing beauties and handsome gents include stars like Hugh Jackman, Amy Adams, Justin Timberlake, Eva Longoria, Ryan Seacrest and many more, also inclusive with powerhouse press by Siri Garber of Platform 32 PR. Ooooh, Mr. Timberlake himself went on Ellen this month to talk about just how important the project is as well as Twitter buzz already in the works. The Beauty Book launches worldwide the 1st week in December and the best way to purchase it is by clicking right here …with pre-orders currently available. Bookmark? Yes, please. Inspired? Completely.
