Ballroom Trial

So tonight i did a trial makeup on my friend for her ballroom dancing and i gotta say i really enjoyed it!

I used to do it a LONG time ago and not stress about it, but now that i am studying it i get really stressed out about whether i have done it right or not. I was really happy with the first one i did.


So this is the BEFORE shot!


And this is the AFTER:




The reason she is holding the piece of material (is NOT cos she is a dag or that i thought it was cool ;p ) is because her dresses have not been made yet and we needed to be sure that the colours we had chosen were correct for the dress she was wearing. I LOVE these colours on her cos it makes her eyes look more green and stand out more.

In hindsight i probably should've taken more pics with her eyes shut etc so you could see the design and also so i could critique myself but it was just too late. Right now it's 1150pm and we only just finished and i also have to work tomorrow morning (BLURGH on a SATURDAY!!!). But i guess i can do all that stuff on the day and at least we weill have the dresses to get the full effect!

The next look was a bit of a blunder!!!! We just totally picked the wrong colours. The colour of her next dress is BRIGHT orange... like NEON! (eg the colour that is in the bottom left of the picture below) We needed extremely bright colours but the ones that i had just were not working so i will have to go and buy some or find something quick smart from my old kit!

Otherwise i think i did okay but i know i can do better!!! I am sure it will be fine on the day as i have done this for her SO many times...
Anyways good night all!!! Hopefully i get some sleep!! All in all a good trial!!! She was happy so that's all that counts!
