For my Estella look I wanted to keep everything very simple and realistic looking. I went for a very natural make up that fits in with the time, as Victorian women did not wear bright or garish colours. I have gone for a perfect base, adding a rosy shade to the lips and cheeks. My Estella is set towards the end of the book when she is being abused by her husband, so I want the black eye to be the standout feature in this look. I have added a touch of blue under the eyes as this will make my model look more tired, as if she is worn down and stressed. I have chosen to recreate a fresh black eye, so will use mostly red and purple supra colour to create that finish. I have also taken into consideration where the fist would hit the face, so will add a small red mark on the top of the cheekbone where there would be some bruising. 
This next look option shows Estella in the middle of the book. She is wearing slightly more make up here as she is a young woman, but the look is still verynatrual with flushed lips and cheeks.
This is Estella at the earliest point of the book. Wearing very very minimal make up so it appears she is wearing none at all, I will use a dewy foundation for this look to Make Estellas base look fresh and youthful. I have added some freckles to the skin as they also are assosiated with natrual beauty and will accentuate the look of minimal make up.
