Ripping Yarns by Emma Miles


The Ripping Yarns story for Harrods was based on a puppet theme using wool as the strings. It was to be a quite androgynous and sinister story. 

With this in mind and the brief I was given I decided to focus on the eyebrows making them heavy and dense and emphasised.
I used darkness under the lower lash line to create a unconventional makeup to compliment the mood and feel for the story. 
A lot of contouring to hollow out her facial structure to give her a puppet like feel.
I used two different shape and sizes of Japonesque fake eyelashes and placed them in a way that enhance and elongate the upper lash line to make the eyes appear large, reminiscent of a puppet doll who eyes always seem to big for their puppets face.
And a strip of lower lashes to finish off the doll like effect.
