Timed Assessment Practise - As The Make Up Artist

In this week's lessons I was practising my partner's make up design for the timed assessment next week. I was initially daunted by the design as it seemed complex and involved many different shapes and technically challenging steps. However once we began practising and working through the steps it became clear that this was a really interesting and fun design to create. Due to its complexity the first practice involved some timing issues which would mean in the assessment time would potentially run out. This was due to discussion taking place surrounding the design, but also me getting used to the design layout. During the first session the design changed slightly as it became clear that other ideas and looks would be better. This increased the steps within the make up, but helped to develop the look further. In the second practise the amount of time that it took to apply the make up reduced meaning that the look was achievable. This increased my confidence as I knew what I had to do and knew that I could realistically carry it out. Overall the second practice was more successful as the look and aim from my designer was clearer in my mind. After both practices I am looking forward to creating it in the timed assessment.
