When figuring out what my final design would be, me and my partner discussed what would make it look more elizabethan as it looked more beauty editorial. This resulted in me changing my design and adding a paler base as well as rosy cheeks which is something that was quite common in the Elizabethan era as well as blocked out eyebrows. However when I tried this out it didn't look very effective as my eyebrows are dark but fine/short so it just looked strange.
Instead of blocking them out I asked my partner to fill them in then apply the pale base over the top so that my eyebrows had more shape.
This was to insure that the makeup didn't look too sinister as that wasn't what I was going for. As the lady in waiting I chose was Blanche Parry who was very caring, loyal and cared/close to Elizabeth for 56 years. After researching her i decided her makeup must be quite natural and didn't want it to be too dramatic as some designs that other people had done just seemed too intense as a lot of people seemed to get away from the Elizabethan brief.
