Miss Havisham - Practicing My Make-up Designs

Design 1:
This make-up design shows Miss Havisham as Pip might see her; an old lady.  I like the effect that this make-up creates, but I don't think it's the right look for my perception of Miss Havisham.  This is because I don't imagine her to be an old lady, but a heartbroken younger woman instead.

Design 2:
This make-up design represents Miss Havisham as a broken hearted lady, who is not as old as Pip makes her out to be in the book.  I like this design, because it makes the eyes look really sore from crying, which is the effect that I wanted to portray.  This is the way in which I imagined Miss Havisham from the beginning of the project, so therefore this will be my final Miss Havisham make-up look.

Design 3: 
This make-up design is very similar to the one above, however I have added an extra sore patch of skin on the left cheek.  This was to create the idea that Miss Havisham is a nervous self harmer, meaning that she scratches herself when she is nervous but so much so that she actually hurts herself.  I like this idea, but it's not how I imagine Miss Havisham.
