For our timed assessment we were asked to create a look for Illamasqua, this felt quite daunting because they always have such strong concepts and merge beauty with creativity so well.
As a starting point I decided I wanted my look to be contrasting in some way, from there I thought of a few contrasting themes of which I decided to choose Angelic/Warrior as the theme for my look. I then developed certain elements I though both fitted my theme and contrasted in some way (contrasting opposite on the same line) -
Angelic Warrior
- Fluffy crimped hair - Thick plaits
- Matte hair - Dewy Skin
- Pale skin - Bold colour hair
- White and gold colours - Strong/angled lines and gold leaf
(to represent actual metal)

Final Design
Final Images
Evaluation - Overall I am happy with these images, I am particularly happy with how the brows, lips and crimping went. I struggled with a few things, although I tried the plaits, I just didn't have time for them in the end, so I just put 1 coming from either side. I also struggled with the white lashes because I struggled to get the white right to the base of the lash, I need more practice of this. If I had more time to develop this concept I think it would definitely improve the look, because I think it could do with further developing and refining a bit more.
