Makeup for blondes

Marilyn Monroe, Catherine Deneuve, Brigitte Bardot - just a small list of women who have become style icons for all time. All these beauties were united by one common feature - blond hair, which became a bright detail of the image of each. In order for modern blondes to keep up with Hollywood stars, they must remember that the harmony between makeup and hair color is one of the main components of a great look.

Before revealing all the nuances of makeup for fair-haired girls, you should pay attention to some features of their appearance, which can be beaten with the help of cosmetics as profitably and beautifully as possible.

First of all, every girl should consider her skin tone.. For most blondes, it has a light shade, so pastel-colored foundation will be the best base for makeup. To even out skin tone, you can use powder, choosing a light beige shade, ivory or even a cold porcelain tone, great for ladies with a particularly light skin tone.

Some girls have a piquant feature - freckles on their faces. In no case should blondes mask them with a tonal remedy. This will create the effect of an unnatural mask and spoil all the tenderness and touchingness of the image.If a freckled young lady wants to make her face uniform, then it is better to use brightening lotions or folk remedies (lemon or cucumber juice) and apply an SPF cream to avoid UV exposure to the skin and the reappearance of freckles. For those who do not want to hide a piquant detail, it is recommended to apply a thin layer of mineral powder to make the face look natural.

Owners of blond or light brown hair are better off using lipstick in delicate shades. - peach, beige, pale pink. She will not overload the image and will not add vulgarity. Bright shades of blush should also be avoided, especially for chubby girls. Screaming tones will give the image excessive simplicity and even bad taste, and in some cases they will visually increase the size of the cheeks. For ladies with ash-colored hair, warm tones of blush are not at all suitable, because their fair skin is best shaded with more muted colors.

To achieve complete harmony between the color of blond hair and make-up, blondes should decide which cosmetics they will combine with each other.

Among the makeup options for blond beauties, the main ones can be distinguished: daytime and evening. Each of them involves a different level of intensity of the palette of cosmetics and the contrast between the face and hair color.

Daytime make-up is carried out using unobtrusive tones to avoid the effect of a face oversaturated with cosmetics. For such a make-up, let's say "smoky ice" in pastel, beige and light brown colors.Lips never stand out with a bright color, the maximum allowable saturation is light coral. No less popular is such a style of daytime makeup as nude. It implies an almost complete absence of cosmetics, but at the same time a perfectly even, natural complexion and the absence of skin defects.

Evening makeup for fair-haired young ladies involves a choice of two alternatives in the use of cosmetics. The first type of make-up is distinguished by highlighting the eyes using dark mascara and shadows, and the lips using warm lipstick, mostly pink or peach tones. The second type involves the absence of shadows on the eyelids, but the presence of classic black arrows made with a pencil or eyeliner.

There are two types of blondes - with natural hair color and girls who prefer to dye their hair in a light color.. The former, as a rule, are fair-skinned, and it is especially not recommended for them to overload their faces with greasy tonal creams. They are allowed to use only light powder and blush in nude tones. And owners of a tanned face (most often dyed blondies) can afford to use bronzers and foundations in golden or light bronze hues that do not contrast much with skin color.

The laconic relationship of makeup and hairstyles completes the style of any girl.. Lovers of light hair color wear a wide variety of hairstyles - from short haircuts to luxurious curls or ponytails, and a harmonious version of the make-up should be selected for each hairstyle.

Blondes with short haircuts should highlight their eyes with eyeliner or shadows, let's say the "smoky eyes" option. To make the eyes visually larger, do not brightly accentuate the lips. Nude makeup is perfect for lovers of squares, the shape of the square outlines the face, so there is no need to highlight it with cosmetics. If you want to correct the shape of the cheeks, then you can use a blush of saturated colors.

Girls with long hair are given more variety in the choice of make-up. If the blonde has fair skin, then it would be useful to emphasize the cheekbones with blush so that the skin does not merge with the hair color. In the absence of bangs, it is important to highlight the line of the eyebrows, so that they stand out clearly against the background of the general tone of the face. Young ladies with bangs need to pay more attention to the eyes, but do not overdo it with dark colors, so as not to create a shadow effect on the eyes. Lips can be highlighted with a bold color if you don't have a heavy jawline, otherwise hot pinks, raspberries and reds will make the lower face even heavier.

A truly advantageous rich lip color will look in combination with a ponytail and other hairstyles where the hair is pulled up.

But regardless of the hairstyle, every blond beauty must take into account the features of her face and the event on the occasion of which the make-up is created.

Another factor that blondes should consider when creating makeup is eye color.. It directly determines the palette of shadows and additional cosmetic touches that will further decorate the fair-haired young lady. The three most common eye colors are brown, blue and grey, with green eyes being less common in blondes. The rest of the girls have chameleon eyes, the color of which varies from various shades of gray and blue to green, and depending on the lighting, it can change periodically.

Blondes with gray eyes should not choose too bright tones for eye makeup, so as not to make the image defiant. For girls with this color of the iris, it is better to choose shades of gray, taupe, blue and other non-flashy shades. Especially the beauty of gray eyes will emphasize the combination of blue and gray shadows. Many shades of lipsticks are suitable for gray-eyed beauties, but a shimmering gloss will look best on the lips.

Fair-haired blue-eyed girls will suit almost the same color scheme in make-up as girls with gray eyes. But it is important to remember the special rules for using a pencil and eyeliner. It is undesirable to choose black, which creates an unnatural contrast between eyebrows and hair. For eyebrows, it is best to choose a shade a couple of tones darker than hair, and for eyes, use colored eyeliner.Shades of blue tones will not look as good as on grey-eyed ones, so you should opt for purple, gray, beige, brown shades.

Owners of an unusual combination of blond hair and brown eyes in makeup should avoid color accents on eyelashes and eyelids, so mascara and eyeliner should be chosen only in natural tones. Brown-eyed shades of green are perfect. And the choice of lipstick will depend on the shade of the iris. If the color is rich brown, then the lips should not attract attention with bright lipstick, but the owners of light brown eyes can focus on the lips, highlighting them with a scarlet or other intense tone.

For green-eyed blondies in makeup, a golden-brown range of shadows is suitable, perfectly shading the color of the iris. In makeup, replace black eyeliner with brown or olive hues.

Blondes with any appearance should remember a number of rules for step-by-step makeup application and avoid common mistakes.

• The skin of the face should be previously cleaned with lotion or foam.
• Applying powder or foundation multiple layers is not recommended. It is better to slightly even out the tone of the face, focusing on its freshness and beauty.
• Choosing a blush color depends on the individual color type of the blonde. As a rule, this is a summer or spring type, which involves either a slight highlight of the face with blush, or the use of warm tones.
• Eyebrows should be of moderate thickness and not much different from the color of the hair. They can be tinted with a special pencil or matte shadows.
• For lightly powdered eyelids you need to apply a layer of the selected shadows of a light shade, then shade the adjacent area with a darker tone, without much shading them over the upper eyelid.
• The image of a blonde suggests a certain amount of tenderness and lightness, so it is important to remember the moderation of makeup.
• The final step is to create the right contrast between the lips and eyes. In most cases, blondes are advised to opt for light shades of lipstick. It is permissible to use red lipstick only for girls with the “winter” color type, who have a bright appearance with a bit of contrast.

Women with blond hair always draw attention to themselves. They have charm and femininity. But the basis of their successful image is always a well-made make-up. Each blonde, adhering to the basic rules, can create a huge range of images for herself - from a romantic coquette to a luxurious diva.
