Consultation notes.

consultation notes. 
Consultation notes are extremely important to take when creating a look and doing a clients makeup. 
This is because when taking these notes you gain an understanding on whether your client will be allergic to any of the products that you intent to use and whether thier skin looks to be sensitive or not. 

Here are the consultation notes that I have taken throughout the term for my technical file. 




Creating Miss Havisham: Continuity images.

Here are the images from my Miss Havisham continuity assessment. 
For this look I decided to stick to my practice design and steps as I felt that this worked really well and was achievable within the time allocated to create our looks. 

Here are the steps I took with my look: 
Hair:
1) Begin by sectioning the hair into 3 sections. A small section at the front, a middle section and a lower section.
2) Then put the middle section in a pony tail.
3) Twist the pony tail round until it creates a bun
4) Spray the bun with dry shampoo.
5) Pin this in place with curby grips if needed.
6) Curl the lower section of hair, lightly hairspray and coat with a layer of dry shampoo.
7) Decorate the bun with these curls securing in place with curby grips.
8) Curl the section of hair at the front. 
9) Hairspray this and lightly coat with dry shampoo
10)Gently backcomb this section, making it look messy. 
11) Place the flowers on the top of the bun and secure with curby grips.
12) Gently pull some random bits of hair free to create an undone look. 
13) Finally hairspray and dry shampoo the whole head.

10) Apply a layer of Vaseline to this to make it look as though it is weeping. 





How to create using old age stipple. 

1) Apply a layer of barrier foam to the skin (in this case it was the hand) 

2) Then stretch the skin out so that it is all smooth and there are no wrinkles.

Ready made gelatine scars.

Witch hazel solution (found in most toners) 
Talcum powder 
Prosade 
Kryolan supra colour palette

2) Melt the edges of the mould using a cotton bud and witch hazel solution. 
3) Once this has been done and looks natural, powder the mould with talcum powder. 
4) Take the Kryolan supra colour palette and fill in the wound using a mixture of red, brown and black depending on the age of the wound/scar. 
5) Fill the wound with the Kryolan wound filler 
6) Apply fresh scratch around the mould to make it look more authentic. 
7) Dab the purple, pink and brown from the viva palette around the wound to again make this look more authentic.
8) To remove this use the mould release and proclean solution.
