Makeup & Hair for Estella




 The hair consisted of two pigtails braided and then wrapped around each other with curls pinned up from the bottom.


The front of the hairstyle was constructed by pinning the curls up when hot and then releasing when cool. As you can see here the makeup is natural, with tones of pink and brown. The lip was a lip gloss which turned out too shiny and bright so I powdered over the top to create this matte effect. I wanted to keep the eyes natural as women weren't allowed to wear makeup in the Victorian era. I like the shine to the face, this gives the model a healthy glow which I think Estella would have had in comparison to Miss Havisham's ill complexion.
