Modern day interpretation - MAKEUP. . .


As I have already looked into 1920's make-up from the time and noted down the key features and referenced them in my blog, as well as looking at the traditional style of make-up I wanted to concentrate my focus on fashion-like styles and colors which have been used to create a similar, but more 'wacky' look. Using different techniques and tones, layering color to create iridescent shades and applying 'outside the box', I want to focus my final looks more into a high fashion/couture style look instead of just sticking to the traditional style because I feel that it would be too easy and as our project is to show our interpretation of our chosen books, I feel that practice my ideas and blogging them, hopefully my ideas will work out!

I found this image on Pinterest and the key aspect which I think brings this image together as a whole are the eyelashes. With the extra length on the outer lids and the hint of green at the base, really compliments the shadow and with the metallic green this really brings out the plum purple on the lips. This is an all-over really strong 20s inspired look and from this I shall take into consideration when I think of the final colors that I shall use for my final images, adding color onto the lashes to really make the eyes bop!!
