Timed Assessment

For my final timed assessment i feel that this went successfully and we completed everything in the allotted time and did not make any error. Similar to mine we both felt that this makeup was the best outcome out of all the practises and we also did it in the allotted time space. I feel that i was happy with the outcome and i also feel that Rebecca was happy with the way her design outcome. I feel i was professional throughout and did well from having to do blocking out eyebrows and then re drawing thin eyebrows back on, which i found difficult, however with practise i feel this is a obsticle i have overcome and now feel more confident in the process of blocking out eyebrows.

Second practice with Rebecca

On our second practise we had a better idea of what i was doing, so was already feeling more confident this time around. Also Rebecca had made eyebrow stencils like we had previously discussed, which again made me feel better. 

I feel that through using the stencils the eyebrows were even and looked a lot better, as when they were uneven the whole makeup look looked uneven and not balanced, not giving it that clean polished look that i was striving for. 

I feel the final outcome for this look was better then the previous attempt at the makeup look, and i think Rebecca was happy with the oucome of this also. This time we also applied false eyelashes which i feel pulled the look even more together. Things i need to remeber for the final assessment is to not tap out the product on the brush agian, as although i knew this from last time i foud it hard to break out of the habit. Also to just try and speed up the process so as not to finsih too late, and preferentially before the hour and fifteen minutes is up. 

First practise with Rebecca

First of all we started by blocking out the eyebrow using two layers of pritt stick

We then tried two methods of covering the eyebrow, as i expressed to my tutor that the part of the makeup that most concerned me was the blocking of the eyebrow, she suggested that i try one with powder on the eyebrrow, and the other using three different types of concealer.

We proffered the  concealer side for the eyebrows as the powder made the eyebrow look cakey and made the makeup patchy.

Another part of the makeup look i found difficult was apply the cream black product for the eyebrows, as i found that free handing the eyebrows and trying to make them symmetrical was difficult. So after talking to Rebecca about this issue we decided to make stencils as not only would the eyebrows be the same but it would also be less time consuming.

We then applied the shading down the sides of the nose using a smashbox palette using a large fluffy brush. I also found that with this look i didn't need to tap out the brush as it makes the process of building the colour longer. I then powdered the skin and contoured the face using a buisness card to create a sharp line, then blended out and used a blush over the top, which we again decided was too strong and to use a subtle colour on the following attampt. I however did not have time to finish the whole look to a complete standard i would of been happy with due to the difficulties i found when practising, however we both hoped to improve on the time on the next attempt at the look.

Design and step by step for Rebeccas design

This was Rebecca's final design for her contemporary Elizabethan. with this for my evaluation, sh had also practised on herself and had printed off a step by step for me to follow along with a written version on this. I found both really useful for me. However when i discovered i had to block eyebrows out with glue i was slightly hesitant as i felt this was my weakest area in the techniques we had learnt, however Rebecca reassured me that we could practise a lot until we got it to a high standard, and a standard me and Rebecca were both happy with.

Timed Assessment (Rebecca as Makeup Artist, Samara as Makeup Designer)

During our timed assessment Rebecca kept a very professional attitude, whilst also bring along all the necessary products with her, beside a cape, which we substituted for a towel, which worked equally well. Everything about the makeup ran smoothly and we was the first to finish also. I defiantly feel that the mistakes that we had made the previous night enabled this look to be the most successful out of all the practises before hand. I was very pleased with my overall look as it was true to my vision of what i wanted, and was true to the face chart, without ruining the flow of the brush strokes and being too restrictive. I defiantly feel that one of the main areas which helped me and Rebecca with out timed assessment was our enthusiasm for wanting to get the designers work as accurate as possible, and also communication, and being able to be open enough to correct and praise the over when necessary. I also really liked the lace collar around the neck as i feel this gave the look a lot more Elizabethan. When designing my look i was worried that the look was too contemporary and that it didn't look Elizabethan enough, however  now that the look is complete and i have got the picture, i am no longer worried as looking at the images i think that it does look Elizabethan, and the lace around the neck defiantly adds to the look.

Second and Third practise with Rebecca

On her second practise of my make-up design all went well, still areas that needed working on such as the amount of product used but overall we felt it was a success. However we decided to practise the night before the times assessment, and things did not run smoothly, with a number of errors coming up, the main problem was Rebecca applying too much cream product, this resulting in the look that i wanted becoming too messy, and not looking though out were the product was being placed as the product was just being smeared over the face. We both agreed that this wasn't the desired look i was going for, but although the practise was a slight disaster, it resulted in good things, as everything we had done wrong in the third practise we was able to take note and correct what we had done for the timed assessment which was the following day. Overall, the look that was created was not what i wanted, however we learned from our mistakes. However the most successful part of the look Rebecca created was the neck as this was exactly what i wanted in my look.
