HAIR

• Apply heat protection
• Brush through well
• Do middle parting
• Part hair in 3 sections-> I on each side at the front for curling and one big one at the back which will be used for the bun
• At the back: take a small section of the bun section (on the top) to incorporate later in the nest, section the small section into 2 and plait both of them tightly ; section bun section into 3 sections-> 1 big middle one to do a twist, left and right smaller ones which will be plaited (take them a tiny bit apart->look is supposed to look a bit messy) and will be later wrapped around the twist bun part; take middle section and create a  twist-> wrap it loosely around itself  to create a bun shape but pin it very tightly so it won’t fall apart!; then take left and right section and plait-> take a bit apart and wrap it around twist; try to create a big bun, secure with pins and try to hide them as good as possible(but if not it doesn’t matter that much as the model will wear a veil over it )
• Go back to front: put hair spray in before curling-> better hold; curl front sections-> around 4 sections on each side, do nice ringlets; pin curls and leave them to cool down( maybe it would be the best to do the ringlets before doing the bun so they have enough time to cool down)
• Place nest on the right side of the head(right side if you stand behind the person)and pin it in tightly-> add the 2 plaits into nest-> weave through the twigs  and pin them
• Take pins out of the curls and comb them up to create messy curls
• Apply a bit of baby powder to make hair look dry->not too much because the look is supposed to be not too long after her almost wedding
• Place some  dried rose petals and leaves into the hair
• Pin in the veil-> veil is covering all of her head and a bit of forehead

And without the veil

Creating Miss Havisham: Practice _just make up

• Illamasqua skin base
• Kryolan Viva Brilliant Colour Medley Matt Sun eye shadow palette using caraway, white pepper, sage blossom

• Illamasqua translucent powder
• Make up Revolution London Salvation Palette-> run boy run, head start
• Kryolan super colour palette

When I did the first practice for the make up design I still used the face chart of the actual design. I later developed the design to make it less contemporary.

Steps:

• Make sure face is clean!

• Apply Chanel lumière base

• Mix a very light but not too white base using Illamasqua skin base and Kryolan Ultrafoundation palette in Alabaster

• Apply base, blend very well-> don’t forget to do neck and décolleté as well

• Powder with Illamasqua translucent powder

• Using Caraway from Kryolan eye shadow palette do contouring

• Create an ill/ sick looking look

• Apply Caraway also under eyes, add white pepper(parallel to nose), sage blossom (especially in inner corner of eye) and run boy run to create dark circles

• Apply a red( either from super colour palette or the MURL Salvation palette) on the waterline

• Use run boy run on eyelid

• Apply a bit of Head start(black) near the waterline

• The using the pipette create run down tears ->to create tears mix water with the grey pigment-> shake well!

• Curl eyelashes, no mascara!

• Apply duo on lips, let it dry and then pick up bits and create dry lips

• Apply lip stain or 081 super colour on lips to create the effect that she is/was biting her lips

• Stick rose petals on her face

• Stick some of the petals on her  décolleté

Afterwards I realized that the black underneath the eyes is definitely to modern so I removed some of it

It already looks a bit better. But after developing the look I also removed the the black on the moving lid.

The new face chart:

Practicing the developed design:

The run down tears are still quite dark in those images but I made them softer during the assessment.

Also I didn't do the hair here properly. I just put the nest in and placed the veil over the hair so I can see how it would look like.
