Rules for applying shadows.
Before applying the shadows, you should perform skin cleansing procedures. This procedure is important to ensure that the shadows do not roll off or fall off after application. Purification of the face should be carried out with the help of various tonics, creams, gels for washing or ordinary soap. After cleansing the skin, it is necessary to soak the skin around the eyes and start applying to the eyelids of the eye, using the following tips from makeup artists:
- Before applying to the eyelids, apply a nourishing cream on the eyes and leave it to absorb. Next, cover the eyelids with the base. She can perform powder or foundation. If the shadows have a cream texture, then the above procedure should not be done. After all, such shadows are made with the addition of a moisturizing complex, and therefore, when colliding with powder, they will necessarily roll down.
- Shadows should be applied to the eyelids before applying eyeliner or mascara. The remains of shadows do not chip from the eyelashes, because they will give them volume in this way.
- Shadows should be applied with the help of special applicators. For dry shadows, a wide brush with natural hair is suitable. Liquid eye shadow should be applied with finger smears. Movements are made from the middle of the century to the outer corner of the eye. In this direction, it is necessary to increase the intensity. For the effect of "open eyes" it is necessary to cover the inner corner of the eye and the cleavage under the eyebrow line with light shadows.
- The darkest color of the shadows is near the line of growth of the eyelashes, and the light shades of the shadows go to the eyebrows.
- Do not make sharp transitions, they should be smooth.
- Those women who like bright makeup should experiment with 3-4 shades at the same time.
- To create a smooth transition, use additional auxiliary tones.
Classic eye makeup.
After the cleaning procedures, the following consecutive movements are carried out:
- shadows of neutral tones, which are a little darker than the main face, should be applied to the entire upper eyelid, as well as a hollow of the inner corner of the eye;
- on a line of growth of the lower eyelashes with a fine brush, apply shadows until the middle of the century and blossom;
- on the mobile eyelid, apply an intense color, which smoothly passes to the lightest in accordance with the chosen palette.
The main rule of classical make-up is to properly shade the boundaries and correctly select shades.
Technique "Smoky eyes".
This year this technique is widely used at all possible fashion shows as a trend of the season. The technique of "smoky eyes" is as follows:
- For the application, you should use the shadows of one color palette, but with different tones and shades.
- It is recommended to use a contour pencil of the same color as the darkest shade in make-up.
- Shadows are superimposed on certain zones: dark shades are applied to the bottom of the mobile age, light tones to the middle part, and the lightest ones to the area under the eyebrow.
- In addition, the lower eyelid is tinted, but the color zone is smaller and in this case only 2 colors will be used: the darkest / lightest. The darkest shade is applied to the entire surface of the eyelid, but the lightest shade is applied to the inner corner of the eye.
- Further eyebrows (densely) are painted.
An important role in this case is played by the right choice of the palette, as well as the quality of the product.
The rules for choosing eye shadows according to eye color.
In the palette of a total of 7 colors, but the shades, tones and halftones in these colors are many. Picking the perfect color for yourself is very difficult. Well, when in the store you can use the sampler to pick the right tone, but if there is no such possibility? Usually women choose shadows under the color of their eyes, rather than contrasting tones. And this is wrong. After all, only contrasting shadows will help to distinguish the eyes on the general background. If you do not, then they just merge and your eyes will become faded.
Blue-eyed representatives of the fair sex will come up with shades of pink, purple and rusty shades. For women with green eyes, use dark purple, reddish, terracotta, copper, silver-gray and dark blue tones. Brown-eyed girls will be approached by shadows in ocher shades.
