Products used:
- Apply a light foundation all over the face (I am not using any concealer because I do not want the skin to be airbrushed and perfect - I am happy for natural blemishes to appear)
- Using a fine brush, apply supracolor to create wrinkles and creases on the face, especially on the forehead
- Using white supracolor, highlight around these areas
- Blend this all out, to make it look as realistic as possible
- Create a fairly soft/natural smokey eye, which is slightly darker in the outer corner
- Apply quite a light layer of mascara to the top and bottom lashes
- Apply a fairly light blusher to the cheeks
- Using a red blusher, apply this to the lips to create a quite natural rouge tint
Overall, I was fairly happy with this for a first attempt, but I was not too happy about the wrinkles and ageing technique I had used. I think the colour was slightly too orange, and the lines were slightly too thick, and it just did not look as realistic as I wanted. Also, I think I tried to age Miss Havisham too much - she is not supposed to look extremely old, therefore I will pull the reins back slightly on how many wrinkles she has and how prominent they are.
I will aim to improve this in my next practices, but I am happy with how the 'bridal' make-up turned out.
