After creating the look and practising all the products and the way of applying it on myself, I created the face chart. I know it wrong to create the facechart after I have decided the look, because the face chart has to be my sketch and the guidance of the look. Personally, I prefer to try the look by practising it to see how it works and to see if the details or accessories that I am using are going to work on the skin and find out the way of making them stay on the skin. So, for the actual makeup I am thinking to have dewy skin, as it rends more the idea of freshness and youth. A little bit of contouring just to evidence the face structure and highlighter on the cheekbones, lip bow and chin, to reflect the light on those areas. On the face chart I used MAC red lipstick and as I don't actually have the Ellis Faas lipstick. I sticked the petals with Pritt stick glue and even though it was really hard to make them stay. I cut the petals into small pieces because for the size of the facechart they were too big and were covering the entire face. I couldn't apply the eyelashes on the face chart because they didn't stay, so I drew them.
The next day, during the practical makeup session I practiced the makeup on the actual model. It helped me to understand better if that suits the model's face and if the look would come out exactly as I wanted it to. Applying the makeup on yourself is always different than working on someone, so that practice was more than useful. We know our faces very well and we know what suits better ourselves, but each person has his/her own type of skin, different features, skin colour, and even the hair colour and its length in my point of view influences the entire look. So, here is my first attempt to create the look on the model:

Some petals were not staying as I wanted them to and I think that was because of the face shape that is different from my own. I have also noticed that the petals needed more colour because they were quite patchy and it was harder to stick them on the model than doing it on myself. Overall, I was very happy with the result and I kept loving it more and more every time I was looking at it.
