Timed Assessment Images


The moodboard above shows my inspiration for hair and makeup for the timed assessment. My makeup and hair is based on Nars doing a catwalk show for Marc Jacobs, for which Nars is a regular behind the scenes. The makeup is going to consist of dewy skin, dark lips and natural eyes. The hair is a slick back ponytail, which will be plaited in a twisted edge fishtail plait. 



Facechart showing the look I want to aim for in my assessment. In depth makeup list and the hair drawing will help me to get the idea from paper to face.

How to- Hair: Twisted Edge Fishtail Plait

- Brush the hair thoroughly to get rid of any knots and tangles.
- Place a small amount of gel onto the palm of your hand and work through the top of the hair including the roots. 
- Brush the hair up into a high, sleep ponytail. 
- Part the ponytail into two sections. 
- Start the braid off as you normally would, taking a strand from the right over to the left, and the left over to the right.
- Repeat this twice. 
- Take a piece from the right, instead of placing over the top onto the left section, take it behind and place into the left section. Repeat with the left section, taking it behind to the right.
- Repeat this twice. 
- Alternate the placing of hair from infront and behind. 
- Each section needs to be repeated twice, so two from the left and two from the right. 
- Tie the plait with a hairband once you are about two inches away from the ends of the hair. 
- Spray the ends of the hair with Kryolan Dark Red.
- Secure the hair style and any wispy pieces of hair with hairspray.


I made sure to have in depth step by steps so that I could get every aspect of my idea right. By writing a product list it ensured that I would not forget anything and everything would be prepared for the day. 


I got my model to fill out a consultation form because I had never worked on her before therefore I needed to know about her skin, the condition of her hair and also if she had any allergies. If anything came up during the application of makeup I would write it down on the sheet to keep everything up to date.







Above are my final images from my timed assessment. I managed to get everything finished on time. Being organised helped with this. The makeup is as I imagined. Very effortless with neutral colours and flawless skin. My favourite part is the hair. I love the 3D aspect of the plait, which creates texture against the sleek hair.
