More experimenting with a pale base for Miss Havisham

To continue experimenting with a very pale base that I can use for my Miss Havisham I created this look on myself at home. I used the Supracolour pallet, Illamasqua translucent powder and a Sleek Ultra Matt eye shadow pallet.
The powdery base makeup
To create this makeup look I wanted to keep the same pale base makeup, like in my previous post. Once I had applied the base I heavily powdered my face to see what kind of effect it would leave. I really liked the dusty and heaviness of using a lot of powder to create this effect.


I thought I would experiment with eye shadows to try and create a greyish tone to some areas of the skin. I decided to apply the grey around the bottom of the eyes and around the mouth. I personally prefer working with powder but I found that it was looking too powdery on the skin. I also found that it was very difficult to blend the grey so that it doesn't look so patchy really difficult.

However I do really like how the greyish tones work with my wig. I think I would like to keep some grey tones to my final design for my Miss Havisham.



The finished result.
