Practicing Claudia's Make-up On Myself

Tools/equipment needed:



 First of all, I created a rough smokey eye consisting of gold, brown and black. 
 I then added black eyeliner to the waterline

I literally rubbed my eyes to smudge the make-up, so that it looked old and ruined the make-up

I then applied foundation, bronzer and blusher, ensuring that the skin looked quite sun kissed as Claudia would've often been exposed to the sun, making her quite tanned. I then added highlighter to create quite a dewy look for now

I then used the supracolor palette, fake blood, and cosmetic/stipple sponge to create a cut/graze on the forehead and a large bruise on the neck


I used the Kryolan highlighter quite heavily on the face to make it look like I was sweating. I concentrated down the middle of the face (forehead, upper lip and chin) and under the eyes. 

 I then splattered fake dirt all over the face, and smudged some of it in to show the lack of hygiene and the tough fights Claudia would have been involved in
Finally, I put water in this Nike bottle and squeezed in quite closely to my face so that it splattered water all over my face, smudging the make-up further and making it look like I was sweating more


I was quite satisfied with how this looked, and I really liked how well the Kryolan highlighter added to the look. However, I think the bruise on the neck is slightly too big and takes up too much of the neck - I want it to be less central and slightly smaller. Therefore, I am going to do some more research into bruising around the neck, just to ensure that everything is looking as realistic as possible.
