- Prep / Prime: sheer foundation and light powder.
- Eyes: a soft wash of eye shadow primer gently buffed out with a buffing brush. A creamy shell color all over the eyelid contoured with a soft brown. A little drama was added to the inner corners by using a charcoal color to intensify the look. White eyeliner was used inside the eye to brighten the model's eyes and make them bigger with black, liquid liner on the top.
- Cheeks: soft pink tone blush to accent the apples of her checks.
- Lips: a sheer soft rose petal lipstick overlaid with clear gloss.

Melissa did not depict thinking outside the box. It is a standard, glamourous beauty work. She has not showcased her work by using an unconventional model.
