This was my first attempt at trying out my final design. I used the white Illamasqua skin base for the base of the whole face. I buffed it out with a buffing brush. Looking at the image now, I think that it looks slightly on the white side instead of being on the pale side. I used the Illamasqua black shadow to contour the cheeks the jaw line and the forehead. However, I kept this fairly light as I wanted this to look natural and be like make-up that was done during the nineteenth century. As in those times there was nothing like contouring. I did this as I wanted the face to have a sunken appearance and not making it look dramatic in any way.
I applied the white base over the lips and put the black shadow over it to give it a thirsty for blood look and put on the fangs. On the eyes I used the yellow Kryolan yellow shadow as the base on top of the lid and the lower lash line. I then went in with the purple shadow from the mac eyeshadow palette. I used this to create the darkness around the eyes and also make them appear as shadows underneath the eyes. I used a natural neutral colour on the eye lids and used brown in the crease and inner corners of the eyes. I lined the inner corners of the eyes with black gel liner. However I thought this looked very contemporary. I will avoid dong this for the final assessment. I used the purple to create the veins around the eyes. I was not quite happy with how they looked as they did not look really like veins. I also thought using another medium would be a better option than using eyeshadows.
