Face Charts



The main focus for this look is the feather eyelashes. The are large and very out there yet soft and delicate. The skin is pale and porcelain like with a bright red smudged lip.


The theme here is wealth and royalty as the face is heavily highlighted with a metallic gold and bronze shine. The face is drawn in to the centre with the direction of the contouring and this creates a strong look. The lips are dusted with gold and the eyelashes are left bare.


I attempted the look on myself. The look isn't as strong as I'd hoped for as I didn’t apply a base before and I had left over mascara still on. But the gold is striking and works well with the bronze.


This look was inspired by the lash deco workshop that we had. I wanted to find suitable materials that could be transferred onto the face. I left the face very plain, pale and with a pink blush. I also left the lips, brows and lashes bare to create a heavy focus on the lace. I didn’t have enough lace to do both eyes at this point but the you can still see the direction the look was going in. The lace is navy which is softer than black and it doesn’t overpower the face. Lace is symbolic of virginal and innocence, but the twist of it being a dark colour contradicts this.
