Research and Planning: Makeup Test Shots.

These are the test shots to the four different makeup looks I think would suit my music magazine genre, in terms of Mise-en-scène. 

The first is a very simple look, with a thick layer of waterline eyeliner and some mascara.

The second is also quite simple, with eyeliner, and the corners of my eyes outlined with eyeliner.

For the third, I filled in the flicks to make a full cateye. This isn't as easy to make, but it is bold.

The fourth is the most complex, using eyeshadow to create a smokey look.

I think for my music magazine, I will go for the first look. This is because despite the last two being very bold and making a statement, many alternative rock females spend very little time in makeup in order to seem much more natural. 

I didn't do any test shots using lipstick or blusher, as the eyes are always the most important, and multiple artists usually pay little attention to anything else other than the eyes.
