Make Up Designs: Final 3

One of my favourite things in life is getting a new sketchbook, or notebook. It's just a really comforting ideal for me. To me, it means I get to start a fresh and have a blank canvas. So when I picked up my facecharts I was secretly over come with joy. I couldn't even begin to explain to my classmates because they just wouldn't get it.
I take them home and I instantly get artist block. This sucks. So I re-read my Lady in Waiting post and see where I can find the inspiration for a make up design. I decided to focus on the story of her being taken to the Tower of London. I mean, it wasn't cliché and it just gave me the opportunity to make a really cool and quirky look.

Design one:

I had watched some YouTube videos on FaceCharting (I have just totally coined this word as my own) I thought I'd give my first design a go using cream based products. HA! Mr.YouTube made it soooo easy. How wrong was I? I used the lightest pan stick I had and suddenly my facechart looked like she'd spent the last 4 months in St.Barts soaking up the rays.

Design Two:


I felt like my first facechart was a disaster. So I looked through my references and realised that I needed a white base. It wasn't optional. I liked the idea of the same eyeshadows, so I pretty much used the same products witha  few 'swap outs'  On the paper I contoured it witha  neutral skin tone eyeshadow because I didn't like just a plain white face, it looked weird. I've put this kind of overthinking down to my arty background. During one of lessons with Sue, she was really supporting us trying out new techniques to get different textures. So I changed how I did the brushstrokes on the Mud Splatters.

Design Three:
So it was at this point at 2am I had a meltdown. My two designs looked shocking and I felt embarassed to show anyone. So somehow, I managed to create this design. I feel proud of it. I think it was simple and edgy. It's something I could see on a runway or a photoshoot for someone like McQueen. It's not too much but it's enough. I wasn't a fan of the smudged lip. So I look at the Tudor Rose for inspiration. It was everywhere in the painting and it's still everywhere in the archutecture in London today. I wanted to include the mud splatter but I didn't want to ruin the facechart (I'm still precious about them) and I hadn't decided how I wanted to do them. I'm pretty sure this is going to the design I use.
