Hair charts for Claudia and Quentin

The hair for quentin i was looking at pulled back hair, but it is kind of difficult to achieve this look as i have never done it before and dont know if it will work, i was inpsired by greasers, to make that sort of bad guy look. I think i should have looked into buy something to create it more in this image.

For claudia's hair i wanted something big and frizzy, so crimp the hair downwards, but leave the top of the hair straight, as i want to backcomb the crimped part. I think i want to focus nore on claudia tho, as my word is face and i want to show that as much as possible.

Face Charts for Claudia.

 This face chart was a 1920s look for Claudia and i was inspired by images on pinterest of John Paul Gautier catwalk show, of really emotional looking makeup that was created on the models face. I like the messy look of the eyeshadow, as it does stand out and over the top. The lips i like the colour of as it contrasts well with the eyes.

Brushes used:
Eyeshadow Brush
Blending Brush
Foundation Brush

This is slightly the same as the first one, but the eyeshadow is down the face, as though she has been crying and the lips are the same purple, which do not over lap the upper lip, as that is the 1920s look, i think i like this one the best and would use this for my final design of Claudia. I will create this look with the products i have labelled next to it, as these are the best products to use to do it. For the lips i want to make the purple heavier and the black to, so it creates emotion and show makes the lips stand out against the pale skin.

Brushes Used:
Eyeshadow brush
Blending brush
Foundation brush

I dont like this one as much as the other two, because the eyeshadow is covering most of the face and i dont think it looks 1920s enough and doesnt show the emotion that i want to get through, and as my key word is face, i want to look at the face as much as possible and create makeup that stands out.

American Horror Story seasons

I have chosen American Horror Story: Hotel as my Tv series.

American Horror Story is a Tv series and has 5 season of different characters, places and plot.

5th season
Hotel

Set in a hotel in Los Angeles, called the Cortez, strange things happen there, includes vampires, ghost, murderers, victims and tell you their stories, even going back into past events. I have chosen this i think it goes with the characters i have chosen, as they go with the atmosphere of the hotel and where weird things happen. I like this season the better, as it is a lot darker than the others, and a lot more sexual scenes in it.

1920s Make up

Before this era, make up was only seen to be applied on prostitutes and performers, but in the 1920s it was the era of the flapper, where the cupid bow was considered, and dark eyes were seen everywhere. First the skin was to be pale created using powder, The other was a lot of red lips, but created small and smaller than the natural lip line.

The eyebrows were very thin and drawn on downwards towards the temple, rouge was also used on the cheeks,but applied in a circular motion. In the 1920s the first to appear was eyeliner, inspired by the Egyptions at that time. Also the swivel lipstick seemed to become popular and was invented in that era,

A good article that i read about 1920s make up was interesing , and is a website called Fashion gone rogue and tells you about how it started the trend of wearing makeup in that era.

Gothic Inspiration Editorial Magazine Photo Shoot.

A editorial photo shoot for Vogue Netherlands 2012, for a Neo-Victorian theme.

The photographer was Marc de Groot, who is Amsterdam based.

I think that these are interesting and show gothic in fashion and that it is stylish to dress like this.
I like looking at interesting,out there editorial shoots, as i like fantasy and this shows that, especially with vampires and monsters that relate to gothic. Its not just about the makeup, the fashion stands out to and, i like how regular fashion is made into something unique and is shown in some of these images.

When looking at photos i look at the way the fashion is represented and how the make up relates to it, and this does it and to me relates to films and images that have been seen before, but in there own interpretation of it.

Practising veins.

 Products used

Latex
Kryolan Supracolor Palette
Blending Brush
Cheap paint brush


What i did here was create the veins with latex, then let it dry, then applied the blue and purple mixed colour to the product and to make it look like veins, but i dont think it worked that well, as i think the latex doesn't look raised above the skin enough, so does not look realistic, even the colour needs to be mixed properly of what matches the veins in my arm, and the colour i think it easier to apply the tuplast, but the way the latex is applied on the skin doesnt work well.

























I tried it again, but much bigger on the arm, but i still dont think it work as well, as the latex, does not make it look realistic, with no raised surface. The colour is a bit better on this one, but still needs more colour like purple or a darker blue to get it to match.

Dirty teeth

Products used 
Baby Bud
Surgical Spirit
Teeth Enamel

First had to dry the teeth, then applied the tooth enamel in black onto the teeth, to make them look rotten, with the baby bud, but can clean it up with surgical spirit if it is to much. To get it all off use a baby bud dipped in surgical spirit and rub over the surface (be careful not to swallow it).


I think that it works, but what i dont like is that the enamel flakes off and is not a nice consistancy, but it look relistic, i dont think i would do this again, as i dont think it looks that good and doesnt look like anything i would to do for a character or in a design i would create.

Health and Safety

When using the surgical spirit to remove, be careful not to swallow.
