In all of the images below, the one on the left is the first time I created the look, and the one on the right is the second time... It is key to note that the lighting is slightly different between the 2 (the 2nd time the images were slightly brighter), thus the make-up may look slightly different, but it should not affect it to a large extent. Although, on a film/TV set, this would not be my job to control the lighting and cameras, therefore this problem would not occur.
Overall, I was actually quite proud of how the 2 looks compared to each other - I think they looked very similar and I felt there was no obvious differences between the 2. As a whole, I think the make-up continuity was slightly better than the hair, because I feel the make-up is almost a perfect match, whereas the hair has very subtle slight differences, but it is very difficult to determine how the hair actually falls, but I feel that the actual styling of the hair is pretty much the same.
The main difference that I realise as I look through the images is actually the headband; in some comparisons between the 2 images, the flowers are in a slightly different place, or the headband is slightly lower down or higher up than in the other image. Therefore this has taught me a key lesson, which is that accessories are just as important as the actual make-up and hair styling.
I believe my make-up application has improved quite a lot throughout this project and that I am now feeling more confident and comfortable as a make-up artist. The main turning point where I felt my design came together was when I invested in the extremely thin paintbrush to create the wrinkles - I feel that from then on my application became neater and 'sharper' and I became more concentrated and involved in the project.
Overall, I have actually quite enjoyed the project as a whole, and it has definitely taught me about the importance, as well as the difficulty, of continuity when you are a make-up artist/hair stylist.
