Estella Assessment

The assessment for Estella was Informal and I had 1 hour and 30 minutes to create the whole look as my own interpretation of Estella. I created a face chart which listed all the products I needed to use for the make-up and a step by step guide. I also created a hair chart with a step by step guide, this way it helped me along the way enabling me to create my look to the best of my ability in the amount of time given.

I started off with the Estella make-up and I firstly began by applying a natural colour foundation base to the face, neck and ears making sure it was all blended well using my blending brush. I then contoured the convex areas of the face using black eye-shadow from my Kryolan make-up pallet. I then created the black eye on the right hand side of my model by using a variety of different colours from my Kryolan eye-shadow pallet, including purples, yellow, greens and black. Then to create the sore on the top left hand side of my models lip I used a small amount of latex, gently dried it with a cool heat on the hair-dryer and once it was completely dry I then applied different shades of red using my Supracolor make-up pallet.

I then created my own hair design for Estella and to do this I sectioned the hair into two parts right through the middle, starting from one side of the temple through to the other side. I then started with the top section I then took a small section of hair from the back of the head to enable me to do a plait. Before creating the plait I folded the top section of hair over leaving a gap in the middle and I put it in place using Kirby grips. I then took the smaller section of hair from the top and created plait going all the way around the fold and pinned it into place. I used the exact same procedure to create the bottom section.
