Miss Havisham final design

I decided to make my final design for my continuity assessments a Miss Havisham very soon after she had had her heart broken, I think she is going to be Miss Havisham a couple of days after her wedding day. This means her hair will still be relatively neat in a typical early Victorian hairstyle with ringlets beside the face and a plaited bun at the back adorned with some little flowers, just a bit messy from sleeping in it and not as perfect as it would have been on her wedding day. She will have quite a plain face as obvious make-up was still frowned upon during this time but from all the crying she will have lightly red patches around her eyes and tear streaks all down her cheeks. As a nervous habit she would have bitten her lips  so that they will look very sore and crusty.

Step-by-step make-up:

1. Cleanse, tone and moisturise the skin
2. Lightly fill in the eyebrows with a matte mid brown tone eyeshadow from a neutral matte Kryolan eyehadow palette
3. Using D32 from the Derma Color palette on a brush apply around the eyes and on the waterline to make them look sore and as if she has been crying a lot
4. Using the same eyeshadow shade using a light fluffy shadow brush add some of this into the crease of the eyelid so that it is barely noticeable
5. Apply a small amount of blusher to the center off the cheeks for a natural rosy effect.
6. Dampen cotton buds and wipe them down the face from beneath the eye and down the cheeks to make it look like the model has been crying
7. Using the kryolan lip palette, pick a pinky nude shade and apply to the lips just so they are slightly pinker than usual to make it look like the model has bitten lips
8. Take Duo Adhesive and using a cotton bud apply to the lips, make sure the model keeps their lips separated so that they don't stick together
9. Using tweezers pick at the glue on the lips so it looks like peeling skin 

Make-up:

• Neutral matte Kryolan eyeshadow palette
• Illamasqua/Kryolan blush palettes
• Derma Color palette
•  Kryolan lip palette
• Duo adhesive

Step-by-step hair:

1. Create a middle parting using a tail comb
2. On each side of the parting create a section that goes back to just behind the ear and use section clips to secure into place
3. Create a pony tail with all of the rest of the hair and plait all the way down the length of the ponytail and twist into a bun, securing with grips and pins
4. Using a small curling wand curl the hair at the sides of the face into ringlets going in the direction towards the face rather than away
5. Add artifical flowers to the bun and back of the head for decoration

• Tail comb
• Hair brush
