I would like to read it as emphasizing the tension between the sleek EDM sound she is exploring and the usual emotional rawness/raggedness of her lyrics/music.
But maybe I'm just over analyzing
Also, I think the idiosyncrasies in the font are just a matter of graphic design balance (vowels are in lowercase, left, left, right, increasing number of letters so Colours is in the middle) but they also wanted a smidgen of visual interest.
Makeup and nail polish are great. They match the cleanness of the covers, and the nail tint gives off a cool (cold), stony vibe. Recently, I've been obsessed with geologic colors like slate.

Looking forward to your opinion on the album.
