Creating my final design of Estella

Estella make-up:
Equipments:

• Cleanser, toner, moisturizer
• An apron
• Couch roll
• Cotton pads
• Cotton buds
• Eyelash curler
• A spatula
• Steel palette
• A foundation palette
• Primer
• Loose powder
• A puff
• A foundation brush
• Concealer palette
• A fine brush
• Illamasqua eye shadow palette
• Kryolan eye shadow palette
• Missha honey melting tint (bitter rose colour)
• Blush palette
• A blush brush
• Contouring palette
• A contouring brush
• An angle brush
• An eye shadow brush
• A lip brush

1) Clean, tone and moisturize the model’s face and put the apron on the model. Ask if she has got any allergies or wear any contact lenses.
2) Apply primer on the model's face.
3) Apply the lightest colour (Alabaster) from the foundation palette onto the face and neck with a foundation brush. Use the colour D4 and D7 from the concealer palette and apply the mixture on the under eyes to cover the dark circles.
4) Use the loose powder to powder the face with a puff.
5) Mix the colour black and brown from the Illamasqua eye shadow palette and create a dark brown colour. After that, apply it onto the brows using an angle brush (create arched eyebrows).
6) Apply the white pepper colour from the Kryolan eye shadow palette onto the eyelids with an eye shadow brush.
7) Contour the nose and under the cheekbones with the brown colour from the Illamasqua contouring palette. Then use the highlighter from the same palette and apply it onto the forehead, cheeks, nose and chin.
8) Finally, use the Missha melting tint and apply it onto the lips with a lip brush.

 

Hairstyle:
Equipments:

• A brush, a comb and a tail comb
• Hair tongs
• A hair bobble
• Bobby pins
• Hair pins
• Blue Ribbon x 1
• Hair spray

 
1) Brush your model’s hair with the hair brush to make sure no tangles there. Divide the hair into middle parting. After that, divide the hair into front and back section. Like the picture shown below.













2) Grab some of the hair from the top part at the back and tie it into a high ponytail with a hair bobble.

3) Divide the hair from the ponytail into three different amounts of hair and use the hair tongs to curl the hair. Then, use bobby pins to secure the curls and place them in different direction curls. But for my model, I've curled in small section as it will be difficult to make the hair curly if I curled the hair with too many hair.
4) Then, for the bottom part of the hair, take section of hair and curl them with the hair tong. After that, secure it with the bobby pins and try to gather them in the middle (around the ponytail).

5) For the last bottom section of hair at the back, leave down and do not pin it up.

6) For the front section, divide the hair on each side into 4 sections (the three sections on the top should got more hair than the last section). Curl the top three sections and remember to hold the hair tongs horizontally when curling the hair.

7) Curl the forth section and remember to hold the hair tongs vertically as you want the side to be smooth. After that, pin the hair to the back.

8)  For the third section, pin it to the back section as well. Then, join the first and second section together and pin them to the back as well (the fringe will create a wave). 

9) Finally, attached the blue ribbon at the bottom part of the hair at the back using a hair pin.

On above are the photos of my final make-up and hair design of Estella. I found it very different to work on my partner's head compare to do the hairstyle on the practice head and I found it quite difficult to work on my partner's hair as well. When I did the practice on my practice head, the curls do stay in shape very easily as it hasn't got smooth, sleek hair. But when I did the hairstyle on my partner's hair, because the hair is smooth and sleek, the curls didn't stay in shape very easily. In order to improve next time, as you can see the two loose curls leaving down on the shoulders aren't the same and so next time, I should get the same amounts of hair in order to balance the two sides.
