Age makeup for the eyelids

The main purpose of any makeup - to hide the flaws and emphasize the dignity. A woman after 45 years old already loses her natural beauty, and her appearance is saved by the miraculous powers of cosmetics or the magic hands of makeup artists. At this age, problems with the elasticity of the skin come to the fore, the most common is the eyelid hanging above the eye. This problem can be solved with the help of plastic surgery (blepharoplasty), but many women do not decide on such a desperate step, pinning their hopes on the age makeup.

Not all women, even those over 50, are faced with such a concept as “hanging eyelid”, but it is quite easy to diagnose this problem. Such an eyelid is distinguished by low elasticity of the skin and the appearance of a "hood" formed by the skin under the brow arcs. Most often, such a flaw is associated with a genetic predisposition and is especially common in the Asian context of the eyes. In some cases, the change of the century is associated with psychological problems. With prolonged stress, stress, chronic fatigue, tension arises in the area of ​​the nose bridge, which leads to an extra fold above the eyes. Of course, plastic surgery today can easily cope with such a flaw, but many women still prefer to correct the problem with makeup.

Age makeup is a separate serious science that makeup artists study in detail and practice a lot. A woman at home is also able to do the right anti-aging makeup, it is enough to practice and correctly choose cosmetics, including:

• Powder and blush on a cream basis. This texture falls much more delicate crumbly and provides masking of wrinkles and other shortcomings.
• Dense tone foundation. The pore of light fluids ends with the arrival of deep wrinkles. For their masking you will need a more dense foundation.
• Instead of lipstick use contour pencil. The pigment of a pencil lays down more densely and provides firmness of color.
• Do not forget to use moisturizers for lip skin. For example, it may be hygienic lipstick with mint essential oil in the composition.
• Eyeliner, which tends to roll and imprint on the upper eyelid, replace shadows. They are much more delicate on the skin, not clogged in wrinkles and are not imprinted on the looming century.

Age makeup has its own characteristics that must be considered when applying cosmetics.

• Avoid makeup eyeliner, as the looming skin of the eyelids will not allow it to lie flat.
• Never choose the tone of a pencil and eye shadow with a red pigment, such a hue will give the eyes a look of even greater fatigue.
• Give up the shades of bluepurple and lilac, they strengthen the bruises under the eyes.
• Sharp black tones carcass and pencil should be replaced by a more muted, for example, dark brown.
• Makeup lines should strive upwards, not downwards; otherwise, instead of masking flaws, loose skin will be emphasized.

Of course, it is not enough to know the principles of applying cosmetics, you need to be able to select it by texture, durability, and most importantly - color.

It is important to remember that dark shades visually reduce, while light ones increase and bring closer. Playing with chiaroscuro is very important in the art of age makeup. With the help of lightening and darkening of the desired areas of the eyelid, you can edit the size and shape of the fold, and sometimes mask it completely. Usually, when the eyelid is hanging, the light shades of the shadows are applied to the inner corner of the eye, and the dark ones - to the fold area and slightly along the outer edge.

The fashion trend to "smoky eyes" can play a cruel joke with a woman over 45 years old.

Much more advantageous option - the use of calm colors, for example, brown and gray tones. In addition, the selected tone should be in harmony with the shade of the face and the color of the eyebrows.

Eyebrows are a frame of our eyes. Well-groomed and bright enough, they can divert people's attention from the impending century and the eye itself, which is why it is so important to have a beautiful eyebrow shape. It is chosen in beauty salons under the guidance of an experienced master, and then supported on an ongoing basis, pulling out excess hair. In addition, do not forget to tint eyebrows. To do this, you can use the gel, a special pencil and a brush comb. Always gently shade strokes, but do not go beyond the shape of the eyebrows.

Women aged 45 years should not make a round line above the eyes, as it visually ages the face. You should also pay attention to the edges of the eyebrows: they should not fall below the corners of the eyes. Hairs should be drawn with thin strokes, in a calm color one tone brighter than the selected shadows.

Hanging eyelid makes a woman look tired and indifferent, so it is important to be able to mask this problem. As in the classic "make up", you need to act in stages and pay attention to the nuances: the color scheme, the design of eyebrows and the selection of cosmetics.

1. Align the tone of the face and eyelids. Apply foundation or cream powder.
2. Carefully draw eyebrows and blend the line.
3. Selecting the average tone of the shadows. and apply to all mobile eyelids (including the hanging).
4. In darker color we create "imaginary eyelid", that is, draws an arched line right in the middle of the impending century. The same color draws a corner from the drawn line to the outer corner of the eye. Shade both lines.
5. Tint eyelashes or glue overhead.
