Bald Cap and Beginning the Experimental Process:

Today I began experimenting by mixing some colours to get my desired base colour as I don’t have a white alcohol paint for the base, and I created some colour swatches on my arm to help see the colours.

These are my colour swatches:

I then created a bald cap:

Final Makeup Evaluation

  Final Makeup Write Up: 11 th May 2021: Today, after all of my preparation and hard work, I was finally able to use my practical skills to create my final makeup. This is my final look: These are some photos of my process:  Evaluation: This makeup translated onto the face really well and looked how I had imagined it; grease and alcohol paints were used which means that the makeup would last longer if needed and there’s no chance of the makeup sweating off like aqua paints would which is very important for this look as any inconsistencies would be very obvious and would ruin the look. The colours were also the colours I had hoped for and the light complimented the colours extremely well.    The hair was also how I had imagined it and the curls weren’t too tight, I had also backcombed the hair so that it helped support the crown during the final photos. However, some of the edges of the prosthetics weren’t completely blended so they could be seen slightly...

1990s Research

1990s Research: Makeup in the 1990s was very varied and contained lots of different subcultures including heroin chic, grunge, indie, raves were still popular, and the Ibiza theme became very popular which meant that festivals were very popular. Heroin chic was a look that consisted of pale skin, dark circles under the eyes and looking unhealthily skinny and almost emaciated. Some people described the models as looking skeletal and there was a public outcry as it glamourized drug use and eating disorders. Heroin became popular against middle classes and could be snorted rather than injected which removed some of the previous stigma, it was shown in fashion through unhealthily skinny models but also in films such as ‘Pulp Fiction’ and ‘Trainspotting’ (The Recovery Village, 2019). Some models that are famously known for this are Kate Moss, Jaime King, and Jodie Kidd and Calvin Klein were one of the most famous brands using heroin chic in their campaigns and many famous models posed f...
