Of course, the eyes are a mirror of the soul, but then the eyelids are a beautiful cut of this mirror, and choosing shadows, we strive to emphasize the external beauty of our eyes.
It is not so important what goal we pursue: to lure, surprise or profitably shade – eye makeup attracts the attention of others to our eyes. And how skillfully, competently and correctly use shades for the eyelids and how best to apply them will tell the “cosmetic bag”.
First, we will deal with the color of the eyes and shadows that are suitable for them.
Brown eyes favorably shade dark brown, gold, green, blue, purple, coral shadows. Pink and beige shadows will make the eyes of such eyes more lively and playful.
Persian, gold, copper and brown shadows, as well as dark green and purple, are suitable for blue eyes. Pink and lilac shadows will enhance the natural beauty of such eyes.
Green eyes favorably emphasize blue, brown, lilac and purple shadows. Emerald shade will give dark purple, terracotta and dark blue shadows.
Blue, blue, green and any other shadows, except shades of the same gray color, are suitable for gray eyes. Remember that the color of the shadows should not match the color of the eye!
If you have a heterogeneous color, for example, gray-green in specking, choose the shadows that emphasize the color you need (for example, gray to emphasize the grayness of the eyes). And you can combine these colors.
Shadow combination.
Start makeup by applying light shadows and so on, ending with the darkest.
If you apply shadows in several stages, start with light tones from the inner corner of the eye. In the middle of the century, apply neutral tones, and on the outer corner of the eye – the darkest.
The selected colors should be neutral, for example, light green and dark green or two shades of brown. Carefully mask, shade the boundaries of flowers.
Now we apply shadows correctly.
Skillfully apply makeup on the eyes is not one or two days. Any woman needs an initial practice to learn how to emphasize her natural beauty with the help of brushes alone. Maybe with the advice of the “cosmetic bag” things will go much faster for you!
First, apply the lightest shadows with the help of a large brush. Shadows can only be applied to the eyelid, but you can also on the interval between the century and the eyebrow. Your movements should follow in the direction from the inner corner of the eye to the external.
Next, apply more dark shadows to the fold of the century with a small brush and blend them with a flat brush. This is done in the direction up, as thoroughly as possible, so that there are no clearly allocated lines.
For expressiveness, apply a little light shadows on the inner corner of the eye and a little dark shadows on the outer edge.
Finally, a couple of subtleties:
Too bright eyes cannot be painted with very dark shadows – they will simply be lost in them, and it will look creepy. The same applies to dark eyes and light shadows. You always need to know the measure. Shiny creamy shades based on wax or oil are suitable for dry skin, and matte and gel teni for oily.
Good luck! “cosmetic bag” wants you to always stay beautiful!
