This is the case when it is better to pay a little extra, but be sure that there will be no side effects from use.
How to use?
To master the skill of drawing arrows, preliminary training is required. Makeup artists advise to practice drawing on the layout. For this you need to depict life-size eyes on a sheet of paper. Now you can practice a lot in drawing arrows of different lengths and shapes. This method allows you to master the basic principles and get a hand in the use of liner.
It is impossible to unequivocally answer the question of how to properly lead the eyes, because there are quite a lot of different techniques and methods that have the right to life. Therefore, it is good to try different ones in order to understand which one you like the most. Alternatively, you can start the arrow from the middle of the century, although most often the inner corner of the eye is chosen as the starting point.
The way is quite common when the points along the lash line are formed to form an arrow. Then these points are connected by one continuous line. Using the liner, the shooter can be drawn not only with one line, but also with intermittent strokes. This is the advantage of the liner to adjust the thickness and shape of the arrow in the process of drawing. Such a tool is not difficult to vary the length, thickness, bending and others. Instructions for the implementation of arrows for beginners:
- Before you begin to make-up, it is very important to take a comfortable position, to provide support with your elbow so that the hand does not flinch at the most crucial moment. The mirror should be placed before the eyes. It is important to provide enough light in the room.
- The liner is in the hand in a horizontal position and moves parallel to the growth line of the cilia.
- Draw the arrow with neat movements at the very base of the eyelashes, leaving no gaps.
- The arrow duplicates the line of eyelashes, and its tail is a continuation of the cut of the eye. The outer tip of the arrow must look up, otherwise the face will find a somewhat sad appearance.
- Remember that the arrow line thickens in the direction from the inner corner of the eye to the outside.
How to wash off?
There may be some difficulties with the removal of cosmetics, especially if we are dealing with a waterproof liner. The wrong technique stretches the delicate skin of the eyelids and provokes the premature formation of wrinkles. Manufacturers offer a variety of products with a different makeup remover formula: micellar water, milk, oil and gel-based products, two-phase liquids, and napkins. In addition, you can apply cosmetic oils (coconut, olive, jojoba), as well as highly refined vaseline.
Whatever of them you choose, based on your own preferences, follow the general requirements:
- Blot the cotton pad with makeup remover;
- Attach it to the eyelid for 10-20 seconds;
- Carefully run the disk along the lash line from the inner corner of the eye to the outer;
- Repeat the procedure with the clean side of the disc until the makeup is completely removed.
Remember that in no case can not rub and stretch the skin.
How to store?
In order for the marker to serve as long as possible, remember the following guidelines for its storage and use:
- The eyeliner is stored exclusively in a horizontal position on a flat surface. If it stands upright (in a glass or other container), it threatens the accumulation of the pigmenting element, its adhesion and the formation of blockages in the capillary tank.
- After applying the eyeliner cap should be tightly closed, which will indicate a characteristic click. The simplicity of this recommendation does not diminish its importance. Many simply neglect it, without even noticing it, as a result, the liner dries out ahead of time.
- Under the correct application means applying to clean skin free of shadows and the base under them. Otherwise, the capillary reservoir and the brush may be clogged with particles of cosmetics.
What to do if dried?
One of the drawbacks of such a tool is that it dries out rather quickly and, accordingly, becomes unsuitable. However, do not rush to throw it out prematurely, not trying to reanimate. So, the following simple actions should help revitalize the marker:
- Turn and leave the pen tip up for some time.
- The liner can be trotted, but not very intensively, since then, when painted, the liner can flow.
- Try to remove the rod and set it for a short time inside the reverse side so that the applicator is well saturated with liner.
If none of the above methods could not help, then the beauty product simply can not be restored. The only way out is to send it to the ballot box and purchase a new one.
What to do if bad draws?
It happens that a fairly new marker will no longer cope well with its task. Fortunately, there are many ways to fix it. If the liner applicator is dried up, inaccurate arrows may come out. It can be slightly cut with nail scissors, while repeating the original shape, which had a brush. You can put a dried eyeliner under a stream or in a glass with hot water - it will become more liquid, which means it will be better to draw.
There is an option to open the marker on the back and slightly dilute the cosmetic. Thermal water, vodka or alcohol, face lotion, eye drops, aloe juice, micellar water, light oils (almond, peach, grape seed, olive) are suitable for this purpose. Here is another quick way. Press hard and brush over the back of your hand. After the eyeliner is extruded, dial it on the tip of the applicator and draw arrows to it.
In no case should not apply makeup remover.
