My work station

I think this make-up look was successful and I was able to achieve the desired look - the make-up looked natural but yet made Estella look quite flawless, young and like a typical beauty of the era. 

Hair

Equipment needed:

• Paddle Brush
• Hair grips
• Pin tail comb
• A hair band
• Sectioning clips

I was very satisfied with this hair style because I think it has a very 'pretty' feel to it and is the typical style that would have been worn by a young Victorian beauty, such as Estella. I feel the actual shape of the style was effective, and I was able to hide the majority of the hair grips which was my main concern. If I were to recreate the look, I would potentially try to make the curls in the fringe slightly tighter and neater, but I do not think Estella's hair would have been pristine and perfect because she was still quite young and so would've ruffled it up slightly. 

Final Images

Overall, I was actually very pleased with how my Estella character turned out - the hair was definitely the best I had done it so far, and the I thought the make-up looked quite authentic and fitted the era accordingly. I also managed to complete the look on time and to the standard that I wanted, so I thought the assessment went well and was successful.
