Practice look of Miss Havisham - Hair and Makeup

I knew straight away what look I wanted to create for Miss Havisham. I took inspiration from the 2011 BBC series of Great Expectations.

Starting with the hair-

 


I first sectioned the hair into three sections, the front section was curled and pinned into the third section which was a messy bun with two curls dropping out of it. The third section was curled and messed up with back combing. I didn't want to create anything to time consuming or intricate as this had to be re done twice for continuity.

MAKEUP PRODUCT LIST:

• Ultrafoundation
• Illamasqua skin base foundation
• translucent setting powder
• red lip liner
• duo glue
• red supra colours
• fake scratch blood

Again, I didn't want anything to hard to recreate as I needed to get it perfect for continuity purposes.
I started with creating a lighter hollowed out base using cream foundation and paints. I then set everything with translucent powder. I applied grey paint into the parting and the eyebrows to make it look like she was greying. I then applied three layers of duo glue and picked holes following my face chart. Filled these holes with cream paints and fake blood to look like an infection was occurring.

Im very happy how my first practice went of my character went.
