Gray eyeshadows

Every person is unique. Even the twins have certain, not always even visible to the eye distinctive features in appearance. Gray eyes are considered to be universal, because they go both to blondes and brunettes, dark-skinned young ladies and girls with pale skin.

In nature there is no “pure” shade of gray eyes. Often, the iris is characterized by bluish or green patches. Probably, the majority of owners of gray eyes have often heard in their address a comparison with a chameleon. Indeed, depending on the color of clothes, make-up style and the tone of the shadows, the shade of the cornea may vary.

Shadows for gray eyes - an optional element of makeup, but thanks to them you can completely change and dramatically change their appearance.

Gray eyes often carry the second name - chameleons. Pay attention to what shade the iris gets near the water - the eyes become gray-blue. And in the bright sun can transform into sky blue. If, for example, you choose a wardrobe for an image in rich shades of green, then you will notice how gray eyes will turn gray-green or even with an emerald shimmer.

Another advantage of owners of gray eyes is that they do not need to use shadows in make-up in order to achieve greater showiness of the image. It is enough to make an eyeliner along the contour of the upper and partially lower eyelids. However, if you want to make your eyes more attractive and expressive, give preference to a palette of beige, sandy and dusty-white shades of shadows. Make-up with lilac and violet colors will look harmonious.

But rich pink and dark brown tones are undesirable for women with gray eyes. By themselves, these colors are very beautiful and with the right make-up can effectively look at the gray-eyed young ladies. But makeup with the use of brick-pink and warm dark brown tones is better to entrust the hands of professional makeup artists.

The fashion trends of the past few seasons are the shadows of a bronze, silver and pearl tone. Most often they are used to create a stylish evening look.

All girls and women use decorative cosmetics, but, unfortunately, not every one of them knows the rules that should be followed when choosing eye shadows. First of all, you do not need to buy cheap cosmetic products of unknown companies. Despite the overpriced, it is better to overpay and buy a quality product of one of the famous brands.

It is also important to pay attention to the expiration date, because expired cosmetics badly falls, rolls, has an uneven tone, etc. However, this is not such a misfortune in comparison with the fact that expired goods often negatively affect the human body. To avoid health problems do not forget to look at the shelf life of the purchased goods. Component composition is another equally important criterion for choosing decorative cosmetics. Especially this question is important to those people who have a predisposition to allergic reactions.

When choosing eye shadow should pay attention to the texture of the cosmetic product.

The compatibility of decorative cosmetics with the color type of appearance is the main criterion for proper makeup.Several rules for the selection of shadows in accordance with the color of hair:

• For brunettes with light skin and eyes of a heavenly hue, cosmetics of gray and blue tones are recommended, so that calm women are suitable for such women. For dark girls with dark skin and dark eyes, almost all shades of green or shade are suitable, the colors of which match the color of the eyes.

• For green-eyed or brown-eyed blondes with honey skin tone, shades of brown or green are the best choice. But the blue-eyed fair-skinned ladies recommended a palette in gray and blue tones.

• For dark brown-haired women with dark eyes, black, dark gray and dark brown shadows are suitable. For light brown hair and light-colored skin, makeup artists advise you to select shades that are identical to the color of the iris.

• For red hair, blue eyes and pale transparent skin will be characteristic shades of green and blue palette. But a suitable color scheme for red-haired beauties with peanut or green eyes consists of golden and all shades of green.

When choosing cosmetics, girls try to focus not only on the color of their hair, but also on the shade and features of the skin. In order not to lose my way with the tone of the shadows, the following recommendations will come to the rescue:

• For skin prone to rashes and redness, shadows do not fit, which further emphasize problem areas. These are all shades of light pink, red, red-violet and green.

• If the skin is inherent in natural yellowness, then purple, orange and yellow shadows should not be present in a cosmetic bag.

• Owners of transparent pale or bluish skin need to exclude shades of orange and blue, as they can visually emphasize pallor or blueness.
• Makeup artists are advised to look at caramel, vanilla, beige and golden shades of eye shadow to girls with dark skin.

• The “warm” skin tone eliminates the use of a pink and violet palette of shades.
• To emphasize the natural beauty, brown, beige and pale pink shades are suitable for girls with a “cold” type of skin.
• With light skin, light green and soft-purple shades harmoniously look.

Depending on the type of makeup (day, evening, everyday, in accordance with the image, etc.), the technique of applying shadows can be very diverse. They can be applied as an independent decorative cosmetics or used as a second layer, painted in one color or combined several tones. However, there is the so-called classic method, which can be taken as the basis for any makeup.
