In preparation for my timed assessment, I have practised how to create Sally's sad looking eyes. This includes the basic steps on how to create the simple eyeshadow look to accompany her naive and emotional persona, as well as how I created Sally's tears and smudged make up whilst practising at home.
Step by Step:
1. Firstly, prime the eyes, I used a Mac Pro Longwear concealer to do this, as not only does it prime but covers any redness or veins on the eye.
2. Cover the mobile eyelid with a mixture of the matte cream shade and the shimmery cream shade from the Screen Face Palette using a flat shader brush. After this, use the mid tone brown from the same palette with a flufflier brush to define the crease.
3. Take the Kryolan palette, and using a small definer brush, take the warm brown shade and apply in the crease. This will add darkness and depth.
4. To line the top lash line, I used Mac Chromographic Pencil in Black Black. After I created the line, I used a pencil brush to smudge this out to create a slight smokey effect. I also took the pencil underneath the eye and smudged this out too.
5. To widen the eye, I lined the waterline with a white eye pencil.
6. Next, I applied a few coats of mascara to my top and bottom lashes (not waterproof though!) and filled in my brows with a dark brown pencil. I arched my brows more than usual to create that typical Sally Bowles brow.
7. Finally, I wanted to make it look as if my Sally had been crying. For my timed assessment I would ideally like to use a tear stick to create the tears, and consequently the tears should smudge the make-up. However, if this doesn't work, I shall ask my partner to use eye drops or a small amount of water to create that smudged effect.
