For this genre we needed dark makeup with heavy black eyeliner and eyeshadow. We looked at different grunge artist for inspiration. We wanted to exaggerate the genre whilst keeping a 'girly' vibe. Our research mainly focused around the grunge group the pretty reckless as it fully embodied the dark genre whilst still being girly. For our hair we decided to backcomb it to create a lot of volume much like Taylor Momsen, lead singer of The Pretty Reckless, has. This element is common in many grunge videos so means it will easily be connoted with the genre. As for makeup it was mainly focused on very dark, heavy eyeliner and eyeshadow which meant this was easy to replicate. We used very light foundation and no bronzer/blush in order to eventuate the darkness of the eyes.
We used the look from the pretty reckless as our main inspiration as we felt they embodied the grunge genre through their makeup and costume.
