Illamasqua Timed Assessment - INFLUENCES

For one of this unit we were also asked to complete a timed assessment which was inspired by Illamasqua.
My idea was not to go all out with the typical Illamasqua theme. I wanted to keep it quite subtle, as far as subtle goes with Illamasqua anyway. They are obviously well known for their outrageous, theatre influenced make-up and I wanted to keep that in mind. I chose to create a simple smokey eye, however when thinking of Illamasqua, I first thought red/plum tones. So create a smokey eye with a subtle colour on the lip.

Illamasqua was originally influenced by the 1930's Berlin scene. However I wanted to evolve the time scale, by using their make-up techniques and looks into consideration, but then using a make-up style through the ages as an influence.
I love the style of 60's make-up and want to create an eye look that incorporates the shape but use colours and techniques that I've researched and learnt from illamasqua.
Their make-up is known to be quite heavy and dramatic. I wanted to keep the eyes quite dramatic, with a pop of pink/plum.

Again, sticking with my 60's theme, I was inspired by the 60's beehive and want to create a more subtle beehive with half up half down.
