Makeup for brunettes

Carefully executed makeup can transform any girl and add her self-confidence. It's no secret that the color palette of decorative cosmetics should be selected based on the characteristics of the appearance, in particular, the color type. Today we will talk about which beauty products are suitable for brunettes and how to make a beautiful competent make up with their help.

Gorgeous dark-haired beauties, as a rule, by nature have quite bright data. Therefore, their makeup should be natural and not go beyond, emphasizing the dignity of the face.

By overloading it with a large number of accents, you can achieve not an effective image, but vulgarity. To prevent this from happening, use the following information:

• The choice of tinting agent should depend on the natural color of the skin - a cream with a tan effect is suitable for swarthy brunettes, beige or ivory for ladies with fair skin. This rule also applies to the choice of powder;
• Blush pick up in warm colors. Shades of coral and peach are best suited;
• With eye makeup, you can dream up a little and add colors: for girls with darker skin, gold, purple, brown, dark green and gray shades are suitable; light-skinned people can use a delicate silver-pearl range, beige, pinkish shades;
• To focus on the lips, brunettes can use bright lipsticks and glosses. Red, burgundy, plum colors will look great. If the focus is already on the eyes, choose a neutral beige lipstick;
• If you wear bangs, remember that on dark and blond hair, it looks like a contrast enhancer with the eyes. Therefore, do not perform too dark and aggressive make-up on the eyelids, give up black and, in general, any too gloomy shades.

Dark-haired girls have several types. Now we will take a closer look at the choice of products for each of them:

• Blonde hair + light eyes. This type is also called "brown-haired". It includes all gray-, green- and blue-eyed beauties with hair of brown shades lighter than chestnut. Their skin is often honey-beige, sometimes with freckles. This color combination implies an emphasis on the lips. However, this does not mean that you need to forget about the eyes. The perfect mix will be shadows in the color of the iris, dark gray or brown eyeliner on the upper eyelid and red or cherry lips. To give them fullness and juiciness, you can apply a drop of gloss over lipstick. It is better to emphasize the cheekbones with blush a couple of tones darker than the skin;
• Dark hair + light eyes. Quite an interesting combination, evoking associations with a panther or a she-wolf. A light smoky eye in brown or gray will help to emphasize and enhance this effect. You can also add some colored shadows to match your outfit on the moving eyelid. Delicate peach or noble beige are suitable for cheeks, and let the lipstick be neutral, it’s better to just add volume to the lips by applying pink gloss;
• Dark hair + dark eyes. A girl with brown or black eyes and raven hair looks like an oriental princess. And her makeup must be appropriate. Eliminate light shadows from your palette and opt for purple-black or gray tones. Cover the cilia with voluminous mascara in two layers, draw an arrow along the upper eyelid. Make lips juicy, experiment with burgundy and other rich shades of lipsticks and glosses. Highlight cheekbones with blush 2-3 tones darker than skin color.

Another gradation for the types of make-up for brunettes is based on what time of day and what event the makeup is intended for. Naturally, it is impossible to wear the same makeup for a party, wedding or going to work. Therefore, listen to our advice and choose the color scheme according to the occasion:

• Day makeup. Sunlight ruthlessly betrays the slightest errors made when performing make-up. If you do not want to look like a painted doll, use a palette of shades that are as close to natural as possible. No glitter, aggressive blush and boldly outlined eyes - muted "smoky", black or brown mascara, smooth skin with slightly blushed "apples" of the cheekbones and tender lips - this is what your choice should be;
• Evening. But this option opens up scope for your imagination. In the evening, bright eyes, juicy lips, and even some excesses like arrows or sequins look organic on black-haired girls. On extremely pale skin, you can apply a tint a couple of tones darker to create the effect of a tanned face. If you know how to do contouring - do it, this is just the case when there is an opportunity to experiment a little.If you don’t know how, it doesn’t matter, emphasize the cheekbones with dark blush, highlight the arches of the eyebrows with light shadows, and tint the eyebrows themselves to match the hair and give them a clear outline. Let the eyes and lips be bright, you don’t even have to choose what to focus on - evening makeup allows them to be equally rich in study;
• Wedding. It is very important not to "overdo it" here. The bride is a priori a gentle airy creature and her image should be just as gentle and airy. For eye makeup, smoky gray and beige-chocolate colors are suitable here, the tone of the face must be as even as possible, remembering, however, the “mask effect” and using a tone-on-tone tint with natural skin color. Under the cheekbones, you can literally apply a couple of strokes of blush, on the lips - resistant lipstick of any suitable shade from a pink-red range.

The choice of decorative cosmetics for every day and for a solemn occasion is a responsible and difficult task. You must clearly imagine how a particular color of eye shadow, lipstick or blush will look on your face in certain conditions; what makeup options you can perform with the selected tools. We recommend that you take a closer look at the following color palette:

• Toners and blush. When choosing them, you, of course, should take into account your natural skin color. Most often, brunettes are suitable for products containing yellowish pigments or beige-brown. But never choose a red or too light beige powder with a pink tint - with a high probability it will not suit you. To highlight the cheekbones, give preference to peach, coral or tan blush;
• Shadows, eyeliner and mascara. The palette of shades of shadows for makeup brunettes is quite extensive.You can use almost any shades, except for too light ones, but it is still better to give preference to black-gray and beige-brown tones. Don't be afraid of colored eyeshadows - you can decorate your eyes with purple, blue, dark green or even gold and silver colors. Shooter lovers will be delighted with the possibility of using rich black or chocolate eyeliner. Mascara - volumizing or lengthening, also black or brown;
• Lipstick and lip gloss. To create juicy lips, brunettes can use products in pink, as well as bright scarlet, plum, burgundy or brown. If you want to first outline the contour of the lips with a pencil, choose a shade slightly darker than lipstick and blend thoroughly.

Fashionable modern make-up involves careful study of all the details of the image. There should not be anything superfluous in it, but you should not completely neglect it either. Therefore, let's learn how to do it correctly step by step:

• Skin preparation. Wash your face thoroughly with make-up remover. Apply your regular day cream. Wait until it is completely absorbed;
• Correcting imperfections. If you don't have them, you're in luck. But if there are spots, post-acne marks or protruding vascular networks, you need to work out these areas with a corrector. Its color is selected depending on the hidden problem: if these are spots from pimples, then we choose a green remedy, close the capillary network with yellow; pink color is suitable for improving the complexion, and purple will hide an unsuccessful self-tanner. The corrector is applied with dots and blended over the problem area. Under the eyes, if you need to hide signs of fatigue and blue circles, apply a concealer on a tone lighter than the skin;

• Alignment of complexion and placement of accents. With a round sponge-sponge or a voluminous brush, carefully apply and blend the tinting cream. We go beyond the boundaries of the face to avoid the "mask effect". Next, mattify the skin with mineral powder. If desired, you can highlight the back of the nose with a highlighter, put a “dot” above the upper lip, highlight the bend of the eyebrow and the protruding zygomatic bone. As a final touch, we apply blush, highlighting the line of the cheekbones;
• Brows. To begin with, we give them a beautiful shape, removing excess hairs with tweezers. Next, with a special pencil, we apply small strokes along the line of eyebrow growth. We shade them a little with a cotton swab, fix the shape with a gel;

• Eyes. We apply the base on the mobile upper eyelid. It is necessary so that the shadows last as long as possible and do not roll into a crease. After that, apply colored shadows of the selected shade. Remember, the closer to the outer corner of the eye, the darker the color should be. You can emphasize the inner corner with a drop of highlighter. If necessary, paint over the upper lash line with a pencil or liquid eyeliner, along the lower eyelid you can shade a darker shade of shadows (the one used for the outer corners of the eyes). Apply 2 coats of volumizing or lengthening mascara to lashes.
