This was  Sophie's third trial practicing my design. We used all the products that were we used in the previous practice session. Sophie started with applying the base, she then moved onto painting the gold over the eyebrows. She moved onto the cheeks did the liner over the eyes, lashes and then moved onto the lips.

Just doing this took Sophie an hour and ten minutes. This way she doesn't get the neck painted in gold and the lace going over the neck. I feel like this is a crucial part of the look as it reflects the design over the eyebrows and I also wanted it to be a part of my design as it represents a high collar.

To make things slightly easier for Sophie I curt out the shape of the lace exactly how I would want it in the final assessment and asked her to use it as a stencil to draw out the shape as it will be less time consuming and easier to match up the shape.

I made the lace more round from the side and wanted it to merge in with my hair line so that it just doesn't look stuck on. I also advised Sophie to stick the lace on top of the eyebrows as soon as the gold dries as this will give the duo glue time to dry and get clear.

As we were having time issues we decided to paint on the neck after just to see how much time it takes to paint it and stick the lace on. This literally took Sophie two minutes to do. We then both decided to prioritise the things I would like in the design and do them in an order. We wrote down a list which stated the order in which to create the design. This was the order:

• Base
• Design over brows
• Lips 
• Neck 

These were the main things I wanted to be in the final look as they heavily represented my lady in waiting. After Sophie will have completed these if we still have time I would then like her to contour the cheeks, line the eyes with liner, put the god over the lips and paint the lashes gold.

However, if we do not have enough time on the day of the final assessment I told Sophie she could leave out the lashes and the gold over the lips. Looking at the design I was pleased with what Sophie did and she also felt a little more at ease with how we ordered the steps in creating the look.
