Continuity assessment. Part 1. Second Attempt with my sister modelling.

This is my second first part of my continuity assessment. My model Ben was really sick so he couldn't make it for the second part of this assessment. I was told my Kat and Sue that my assessment needed to be completed by the next day so I had to find a model that would model for the first and second half of my assessment. I had to start again and re-design my design to fit my new model as I had designed my previous design around my previous model and his hair. I organised with my sister to come in and model for the next day for both, the first and second part of my continuity assessment, with a 3 hour break in between. I re-designed the Dorian Gray look to suit her. 

I came in to the room and set up my station.

Technique and Application:

1. I first sectioned my models hair into 3 sections. One for the back bun, and one either side of the middle parting. 
2. I then clipped the 2 sections either side of the middle parting. To keep them out of the way.
3. I then tied up the back section into a ponytail.
4. I then split the ponytail into 2 sections and plaited each one securing them with a clear band. 
5. I then twisted these 2 plaits into a bun and secured then with bobby pins. 
6. I made sure the pins were hidden and the hair was neat and tidy. Cleaning the stray hairs with hairspray.
7. I then began to curl each side of the parting into ringlets. 
8. Once I had finished the hair, I lightly pinned the hair off of the face so I could begin The makeup application.
9. I began by cleansing, toning and moisturising Bizzee's face.
10. I then applied primer to create an even base.
11. I then began to apply the foundation to cover any uneven colouration. 
12. I then applied concealer under the eyes and to any blemishes. 
13. I then applied translucent powder to set the base.
14. I then contoured under Bizzee's cheekbones to create a hollow look under the cheekbones. 
15. I then applied blusher to the apple of the cheeks.
16. I then lightly filled in my sisters eyebrows to even out the colour. She has had her eyebrows tattooed on so I only had to fill them in slightly. 
17. I then applied the tiniest amount of mascara to the lashes to make them look as natural as possible. 
18. I then applied the lipstick to Bizzee's lips with a lip brush. I applied this lightly as I wanted the colour to be close to her natural colour. 
19. When I was finished I then applied translucent powder to set all of the makeup.
20. I then used the moments before taking the photos to fix any stray hairs or any mistakes. 

Outcome and Thoughts: 

This was a very last minute process. I had to start over due to my previous model being sick and the deadline being tomorrow. I was really nervous but once I had my model sorted it was time to re-do my face plan and notes for the timed assessment. I really wanted to use this opportunity to show that I can adapt to new situations or plan changes. This happens a lot in the industry and I thought it was a good experience to prepare me for it. I thought it went really well especially as I hadn't had any time to practise this look. I had however had done my sister's makeup before so I was comfortable with the application. I feel that this is a good representation of my character and the Victorian era and I'm very pleased with the outcome.
