'Elizabeth: The Golden Age' Make-up Comparison

Alexandra Byrne was the make-up artist in Elizabeth: The Golden Age.


I think my final design definitely has some similarities with the make-up in the film - one of the main ones being the colour of the face. In the film, Elizabeth is always seen to have a very pale white face, and in my design, the outer part of the face is also this colour. 


Furthermore, she often appears to have quite pink rosy cheeks and lips, again this is similar to in my final design, the only slight difference is that not necessarily all of the apples of the cheeks are red, because some parts actually fall into the skin coloured part of the face, which instead has contemporary contouring and highlighting. 


The main difference between my design and the make-up in the film is the eyes - I have extremely dark and very heavy smokey eyes, along with long eyelashes. Whereas in the film, there is barely any eye make-up, and everything is very natural.
