Day and evening
It is not so important what schemes you use when it comes to time of day. It is considered a move to wear too bright makeup in the morning and afternoon hours. A similar situation happens if you go to a social event with natural day makeup. You just get lost on the general background.
In daytime make-up it is important to slightly emphasize the natural beauty of the eyes and make an even tone of the face, disguising the flaws. Beige, pink, golden hues or pale blue hues may well be present to the eyes. As for lipsticks, it is allowed to wear gloss, not too bright berry colors and matte nude lipstick.
In the evening you can afford much more. Arrows, smoky eyes, dark colors of lipstick, a lot of shine and shimmer. The main thing is to know the measure, but in general only your sense of style and format of an event or an evening can limit you.
It is important to distinguish between makeup seasons. For our country, this is especially important, because their change is more than clearly visible. Everything is simple - leave bright and berry shades for the summer. Cozy red and chocolate save for autumn. A more restrained makeup will get winter - at this time of the year it is generally better to think about leaving, and not about beauty. Well, spring for joy, use all the most delicate colors in your palettes.
Techniques and types of make-up
- No matter how trite it sounds, but the first is to consider the classic way. There is nothing difficult in it - most likely, you already own it, just did not know that it has a name. It is based on only three colors. If you like to buy shadows, not a piece, but with pallets, most likely, such a basic set will be already formed for you: light tone, medium and darkest.
The sequence of applying flowers should be the following: the palest tint is superimposed as a base on the entire upper eyelid. You can shade it right up to your brow. Next, the center is decorated with a medium tone. With it, you shade the eye and add extra volume. The darkest view is applied last and affects only the outer corner of the eye.
So you get a soft color transition from the center to the periphery.
- Next technique - vertical. It will suit the ladies who are worried about too narrow eyes. Using the correct shading vector, you can visually open your eyes.
The technique is contraindicated for owners of round or convex eyes.
When deciding on the order of application, the zones into which the eye is divided should be numbered:
- First part - This is a plot in the corner, closer to the nose.
- The second part of - a segment whose length is equal to the beginning of the eyebrow and the near face of the iris of the eye when you look straight.
- Third section - the entire gap, which fits in the size of your iris from edge to edge.
- Fourth is starting from the second edge of the iris and ends corner of the eye.
- Fifth begins from the extreme corner of the eye and ends with the eyebrow.
Remember these five pieces and arrange the colors in the correct order.
The maximum pale shade will need to be applied to the zone at number 1.It is not necessary to do this with the help of shadows, you can use a white pencil, highlighter or concealer. Next, apply light colors to the second zone. The third section will be transitional - its shade should be darker than the second, but lighter than the fourth. The fifth zone is the most intense and bright color.
Similarly, you can put a shadow on the lower eyelid, just allow yourself to skip a couple of zones, otherwise it is possible that the makeup will not look very nice.
- The next technique is horizontal. It is suitable for owners of round eyes, who so want to lengthen. The order of zones in it changes.
- Only the first zone remains in place.You can also lighten it with a highlighter or frosted light shadows.
- Second zone captures the growth line of your eyelashes. It is neatly fed with a dark pencil (black, brown, purple or marsh).
- Third zone occupies the entire movable eyelid, and in this segment of the shadow there must be a transitional middle hue.
- Crease of upper eyelid forms the fourth zone, and it needs to be covered with the darkest color you planned to use.
- In free space between the eyelid and eyebrow, which belongs to the fifth zone, it will be necessary to apply light shades. You can use the same highlighter or find an analogue in a palette, but a slightly darker shade.
- Another eye makeup technique is diagonal. From the name it becomes clear that the diagonal forms the basis. It is necessary to recall the division of the eye into zones that were used for vertical technology. In this case, all colors will be applied with a bias to the right - on the right eye, to the left - on the left.
Leave the first zone again under the highlighter. Apply a light tone of shadows to the second one, the third one with a transitional one, the fourth one with the darkest one, and paint the fifth one again with an average transition color.
This technique is used when you need to visually lift the outer corners of the eyes. The main thing is to smooth the transitions so that there are no clear boundaries, only then will you achieve the desired effect.
This is not all eye makeup techniques, although the geometric names are already running out.
- Next technique - as if taking your eyes in a ring, it is called “Banana”. Make-up can be done with a pencil or shadows. If you are trying to do this for the first time, for a clearer line, it is better to pick up a pencil.
It should start with applying a base on the entire area around the eye, including the mobile eyelid. From above, the “construction” will need to be powdered with matte shadows that are close in color to your natural skin tone (or slightly lighter). You can also use regular powder.
Next, bring the lower eyelid with a pencil. Start drawing from the middle of the eye. The closer you get to the end, the stronger the feathering should be. After that, where you have a deep crease between the moving part of the eyelid and the space above the eyebrow, draw a stroke with the same pencil in the shape of the eye. Smoothly connect the two pencil lines and gently blend them towards the temples.
Next, draw a small eyelet loop and add colors along the outer edge of the contour. Hue you choose to your taste.
Such a beautiful shadow game looks very unusual and interesting.
- The latest technique, which you learn from the article, the owner of the playful name "Bird". She is excellent when it comes to slightly rounded and closely set eyes. "Bird" acts by visually increasing the distance between them.
Apply the palest color in the zone number one, and paint over the entire part of the mobile century. In the middle, add a slightly noticeable stroke with a color a couple of tones darker. After that, draw a tick exactly in the shape of your beautiful eye with the help of dark shadows, then gently and carefully blend, moving from the eye to the temples. You should have a Roman numeral V. But this is not the end.In the space above the eyebrow and the top edge of the checkmark, apply a dark (but not maximally) shade of shadows to achieve a beautiful transition.
