Design Notes

In preparation for my assessment, I decided to write a list of the products that I would be using and the process that I would go through. I feel that this would make the assessment easier for me because I would not be worrying about what I needed to do next.

Make-up Notes
- Start by applying matte primer to the skin
- Check for any spots or blemishes that will need covering. These need to be as covered as possible as they do not count as continuity. 
- Using a spatula, place the wax on the back of your hand to warm up the product. This will make it more maneuverable on the skin
- Apply this to the area where you want the cut to be. Ensure that it is applied evenly and slowly build up the product. Where the cut will form, apply slightly more product as you will be cutting into this
- Create the cut in the direction and length that you want it using the same spatula
- Over the top of this apply the liquid latex and dry until clear. 
- Using the acetone, you can blend the edges into the skin to make it more realistic
- Over the top of the cut, apply the skin base to the skin and ensure that it is evenly placed
- Then you can start to create the cut by apply the wound filler and blood. You can add some colour over the cut and around it to make it more realistic
- Then add the colour onto the eyes
- Start by adding the red across the crease and under the eye. You should create a circular shape around the eye. Build up the colour to the intensity that you want
- Then add the purple and blue to the eye make the colours darker and more intense. Focus each colour more into the crease of the eye
- To intensify even more, add the black into the crease and close to the eye
- Using the red pencil add this under the eye and in the waterline
- Apply the black eyeshadow to the face to accentuate the features. This should be applied under the cheek bones, the forehead and under the chin. Ensure that it is blended evenly
- To the lips add a mixture of the red and blue shades 
- Using a mascara wand add white into the eyebrows

- Wet down hair to make it easier to style
- Once wet, create a side parting using the comb and dry hair in the direction that you want it
- Apply a small amount of wax to the hair to keep it in place
- To this add the talcum powder to the hair. Make sure that more is applied to the scalp as you want the skin to appear white
