STYLING IDEAS (HAIR & MAKEUP)

For the styling of my model for the cover photo, I want an extremely dramatic look, even more so than the scene girls I have been looking at, however still following them connotations. I want black to be the most bold colour on her face in terms of makeup, white/pale skin with a pale pink blusher to enhance her cheeks. Thick eyeliner on the bottom of the eye, but not going into the centre as this makes the eye look bigger. Thicker, winged eyeliner on the top eyelid to extend the eye, and then a mixture of black, grey and either pink, purple, or blue (dependent on the colour of the hair) eyeshadows to make the eyes look incredibly dominent and the main feature on the  face. Her eyelashes will be huge (fake) and the bottom will aso be thick, but parted. Eyelashes are important because they are the main part of the eye that can be dramatised. As well as the makeup, I am going to buy bright (purple, pink or blue) contacts for my model to put in and although I could change the eye colour on photoshop, I feel it would be more effective (and more fun) to put contacts in. Lip colours will be quite gothic, dark reds, purples and blacks, to show off the lips and create a sophisticated, scene look. Finally for the makeup, I want to add something to her face to make her that bit more edgier, bring attention to her face, and to do that I am going to add a small amount of face art. These are eyeliner tricks and it creates a more dramatic image. 
For hair, the bigger and brighter the better! Ideally I want long straight hair, that is extremely backcombed and teased so it shapes around the head. I would part the hair to the very side of their head so I could create a big 'scene fringe' which is quite a significant detail of a scene girls hair. The hair would either be purple, blue or pink, as I feel these colours relate most to the kind of image I am trying to go for as well as the fact they are the most different and unique colours compared to natural hair colours. 





This photo shows the heavy eye makeup, and uses a lot of the same colours I want to with the greys and blacks. This girl is also extremely pale and has very red lips, which relates to the kind of makeup I am thinking about.    












This makeup is also beautiful and her hair is amazing, showing the style I would love to create especially with the big fringe. Again she is very pale and has incredibly black eyes and is in fact wearing pink/peach coloured contacts which make her eyes look fantastic. 






The eye makeup on this photo is extraordinarily beautiful, as well as the dark lips, pale skin and piercing. Although her hair doesn't follow usually connotations of a scene girl, her makeup does and suits the genre I want to fit the styling in.   




This is such a beautiful eye design, and although I would make a few changes in the eyelash length and size of the winged eyeliner, If I made it a little bit more over the top, this is exactly the kind of eye makeup I want.  


This is perhaps some of the most beautiful eye makeup I have ever seen, and If I could do something like this on my model It would look unbelievable! I'd change the colour scheme of it to match the hair colour. 



I found this fascinating, it's so different and pretty. I love the use of black gems and purple glitter and imagining my model with purple hair and this eye makeup is exciting, it would look brilliant. 












These are the coloured contacts I want my model to wear, and it's easy to see by looking at the photos how much of an impact they make on the eye. I'd probably go for a single colour like the first picture because It 

would look more to the colour theme, however the second image is just beautiful.     











This is the kind of face art I would like to try and do because it gives such an amazing impression and it's so dramatic. It looks very haunting  mysterious and I would definitely use black to do it because of how effective it is.
