Miss Havisham; everyone has heard of her she's someone who displays extreme abuse to her body in the sheltered environment she had entrapped herself into. Doing makeup onto a extremely young person to convey these effects was always a little harder compared to someone who was over 40; for my planning of Miss Havisham i had always wanted my model/partner to look minimalistic yet convincing; to me Miss Havisham's makeup and hair would of been long since sweated of her face lets face it. The makeup I did for kyomi was planned out to suit her emphasising he yellow tones in her skin under her eyes to look sleep deprived. Lips were dry and pale as were her now aged brows.
For the first practical as always I was a stressing but I felt like the overall final look was good especially with the use of the veil in which i had ripped and stained for it adding the prop made the overall photo more convincing even with my models septum and black top. Overall with assessment one I was quite happy the hair itself was a test in itself as I was applying a wig to Kyomi's hair. In the second assessment I believe the hair went a better as by that time I was confident in applying the wig to the head. I left the veil in my room which was a huge mistake as obviously for continuity thats not something any professional would do. I had prepared myself mentally having analysed my first assessment and also printed off a couple for the actual day in case I needed further direction. The biggest risk I decided to do in the look was of course the lips that were coloured and covered with eyelash glue to look dry and chapped in the second part of the assessment i was actually surprised in how similar it was in that area. Looking at the photos I have also noticed the first looks more yellowy in its colouring I believe this is due to the lighting being brighter in the second whilst shooting. In the second photo the black blur on the shoulder is my attempt at editing a tattoo out; in time though i will learn to perfect if things like that occur.
