The Assessment And Final Shoot.

 I have successfully completed my makeup assessment on the New Elizabethans and I have photographs to show.








Evaluation:
I am very happy with the outcome of my final piece completely finished. I feel that it brings out some basic features of Queen Elizabeth but looking very edgy and high fashion modern, high fashion is the look I was going for to make something modern to me I want to really push the barrier and go to the next level even if it is just practically a basic makeup.
I completed my own design on my own model, I didn’t get a chance to get another makeup artist to complete my makeup look that I wanted to achieve during the assessment because of personal reason, and I feel that this gave me an advantage to the project and regret missing out, but I am happier with the outcome now than when my partner did the look on me.
I changed up my final look a little from my practice run because it was a different model and I thought during the assessment she would have not looked as good if I completed it exactly as I did on the previous model. I don’t feel that I changed too much to the whole look, I kept the skin pale, strong brows, contouring with pink and highlighting with the same pigment as I used over the eyes. I just changed the intensity around and used slightly different colours, and changed the lips to an all over colour. I am very happy with the final outcome and I wouldn’t change anything.  

Final design

After researching Elizabeth, her in the past and a modern version of her I have come up with my final design. 
Unfortunately I'm not able to upload a drawing of my final design, but I do have a practice shot of the makeup I will be doing during my assessment. 






These are my final designs, I want it to be a very fresh by keeping the skin pale and only using pinky shimmers, pinks, and whites. I also rebelled against having blocked out eye brows by making them bold, that is my big modern twist on the whole thing, keeping the brows but making them more dramatic by really filling them in. Brows were a hug fashion statement last year, a lot of designers or even in magazine spreads were a basic face and then strong brows, so I really want to keep a good modern brown game in my end design.
Instead of just using blush on the apples of the cheeks like Elizabeth had, I contoured the face using 3 different shades of pink blush, the deepest colour at the hollows of the cheek bone and then fading it up with the medium to the lightest. I also highlighted the cheeks with a pigment shimmery pinkish eye shadow that I also used all over the lids. On the eyes I did a strong wash of white eye shadow followed by using the pigment again, I then finished the eyes with a little bit of mascara on the top lashes to really tie the whole look together.
On the lips I used a pink based purple lipstick and lightly dabbed it in the center of the lip and fading out, this gave it a real old style feel to the completed look that I really liked.

Using colours.

I have made a makeup look just using one colour and using all the tones of that colour to complete a whole look. 
The colour I chose was red, I love the colour red but it can be very harsh to use, so here I experimented with the different tones of red, mostly dark. 
I used a light red in the crease, and the darkened the eye look with a bright red to show under the darkest colour and then I went in and deepened the whole look with a very dark red eye-shadow, the eye-shadow is almost black but under it has a red tone to it all.
I also use a very dark red lipstick, again almost black red and then set it with the darkest colour red I used on the lid for a very Gothic look.  
I finally did my photo-shoot using a red dress I made and I'm very happy with my whole makeup look, the pictures and the colour I decided to chose.

Colour charts

There are 3 different types of colour wheels, the primary, the secondary, and the tertiary.

The primary colour wheel is made up with 3 different colours:

-Red
-Blue
-Yellow

The secondary colour wheel is made up with 6 different colours:

-Red
-Orange 
-Yellow
-Green 
-Blue
-Purple

And the tertiary colour wheel is made up of 12 different colours, all these colours are mixers of:

-Red
-Orange
-Yellow
-Green
-Blue
-Purple

These colours are in 2 different shades, so red will be in 2 different shades of the colour and so on with all the other colours.





Colour wheels, and being able to use colours were very important, colours can compliment each other by using the colours opposite each other like, red and green, purple and yellow, blue and orange etc.
This can help with applying eye shadow by the colour eye, so if you have blue eyes and you want to make them stand out you'll use a orange/ copper eye shadow and so on. 
You can also use the colours to counteract curtain things such as acne/redness in the skin by using a green underneath and using a salmon-ish colour to cover up under eyes.

Being able to use a colour wheel is very important as a makeup artist, all colours from foundation to eye-shadow to lipstick all have these as bases, a colour from here can be lightened and darkened by adding white to lighten and black to darken. As an example foundations normally have 2 different tones is, either a yellow based for yellow based skins and then a pink tone for pink toned skin, as a makeup artist you have to be able to look at a colour and see what base colour it is to then mix and counteract to apply a perfect finished makeup look. 

Beyonce... The Queen?

As a modern day superstar is beyonce really the un-named queen?
She is very strong, powerful, well loved but does she make a good modern day Elizabeth? In class a lot of people have spoke about, or even chosen there final project on Beyonce and here I'm going to debate it. 
She is an amazing musician, and an even more amazing person. She has the confident to be a queen and no one can deny in these pictures she doesn't look beautiful enough to be a queen, saying so I personal don't think she could be, I look at these pictures and I see her but I see under it all and threw the beautiful clothing and amazing makeup, she isn't my inspiration because I want my inspiration to come from a strong woman, all the way threw. It's sometimes not just the makeup, it's how you hold it all, it's how you hold yourself that brings it all together. That is why my inspiration is coming from models, the models used for fashion shows and photo-shoots, with out this sounding condescending models are constantly criticized, constantly picked at but in photographs they hold the look with such strength, the strength only a queen would hold.

These are a few of the pictures I have chosen as my modern day contemporary Elizabethan style. I really wanted to find something light and nude, how I saw the portrait but in modern day.
My favorite picture is the first one, the lighting of it and the colour's used are so much like the rainbow portrait and it really made me feel that if the painting was to be changed into modern day it would be like this. The rich hair colour, use of the pale skin and the contrasting make-up to enhance it, even down hair piece. I feel is very well done and put together.

We have been looking at a few famous portraits of Queen Elizabeth, out of the few we have to chose from I straight away knew which one I love the most. Queen Elizabeth: The Rainbow Portrait.
There is something so mystical about this portrait, how pastel the painting is, very light, very faint, but still with a rich strong orange colour. All the colours in this painting are warm, and red based, it makes her look more beautiful how the colours just insinuate her pale skin and her golden hair.
Her sheer head wear is painted so detailed to give the fairish feel to the whole painting, how it was all so painted to make it look magical, mystical, light and almost rainbow like was for such a purpose, it constantly has little hints threw out the painting to show there is more that meets the eye, and that's why I love it so much.

The eyes painted on the dress, makes it seem that she knows and seeings everything. She look caring, lovable, and friendly straight away but then the fact that the painter painted the eyes onto the dress, and the snake on the arm shows that as caring as she may seem, she knows right from wrong and if you do, do wrong she will know and she won't be so friendly or caring then.

I could go on forever about this painting and I feel that I have put my side across on why I chose it and why I'm using it for inspiration but now it's time for me to show what I will create for my modern day take on this portrait.

ELIZABETH

Elizabeth

While Studying Queen Elizabeth we watched the film called "Elizabeth" staring Cate Blanchette, released in 2008.
We were able to find out more about her as a person and a ruler from the film, yes it may have not been exactly correct to a historical book, mainly because in the film industry you do have to change bits here and there to make it look more appealing to there audience but also because there are still some facts we don't know are true or false.
The film gave me more information about her and her life. Seeing how she ruled, her choices, her decisions and the history of her, it also gave me a chance to look into the fashion. What she wore back in that period, how she had her make-up and how she had her hair. Not exactly but an idea to give me inspiration for the project, it made me inspired for the assignment.

Queen Elizabeth

Queen Elizabeth 1st

We are currently studying Elizabeth, she was an extraordinary woman. An inspiration to woman from then and still now, even her make-up, even her look was so powerful that we still now try to create it.
In this project I will be looking at her in whole, her life, her style, her make-up, her story and eventually being inspired and creating my own version of the famous Queen Elizabeth.

The Tudors didn't have the make-up we have today, they used other materials to use as make-up to create there style back then, such as the famous white skin.
Some of the materials they used to make make-up were:
- White Led and Vinegar, too create the very pale white face.
- Counseled (Crushed Beetles) used to stain the cheeks and lips red.
- Coal, to darken the lashes slightly.

All these products had there slight down sides, but the worse was the white led and vinegar, it eventually turned the skin grey, caused spots, aging to the skin, and more. Back then they didn't care about the side effects, it was always about appearances and being expected. The way you looked told the people who you were and how high up on the class status you are, the more tanned you were meant you were lower class because it meant you were outside working and that if you were pale you were inside not having to work for your money.
It always comes down to looks, looks were and still now everything. It's how your seen by other people, and its how you present yourself to society.

Summer Project 2014


My summer project was to create a mood board based on what I would like to become in 5 years time.
As you see my mood board, it has vogue in the middle and cover photographs/ catwalk photographs around the edging. This is to show that my future dream is to become a make-up/ stylist in 5 years time. Working with high end fashion magazines, to working behind the scene with a major fashion designer for the couture shows.
I have studied everything from textiles-fashion to hairdressing-make-up and after the years of studying and working in each field I know exactly where I want to be who I want to be.
Being here and University and studying make-up/ Hairdressing is all apart of becoming who I can be in this picture.
This is me in 5 years time.
