Makeup for girls

Makeup for women and teenagers is a completely natural and acceptable phenomenon. This is a sign of grooming, a way of self-expression. Such a make-up does not cause a storm of emotions and condemnation. Makeup for girls is a special topic, one of the most discussed and controversial.

To understand what children's makeup is, you need to take into account its difference from an adult and a teenager. This is not a reason to look older and look like your mother, older sister, your idol from the TV screen, as many mistakenly believe. In fact, this is a one-time technique that is necessary for a specific case.

Children's makeup is a way to teach yourself from the best side. It is not applicable in ordinary life, as it is inappropriate: the girl is beautiful by nature and it is unacceptable to spoil the natural beauty of the child. Such a make-up helps out in special cases, it adds brightness and uniqueness to the image. Such cosmetics are especially relevant for girls aged 9, 10 and 11: little girls simply do not need them.

Children's cosmetics is different from other analogues.Unlike the purpose of the arsenal of adults and adolescents, these products are not aimed at correcting facial features. Its task is to show the individuality of the child in the right situation.

Some mothers buy children's cosmetics for their daughters almost from kindergarten age. And although, in pursuit of fashion trends, it seems to them that a painted child looks irresistible, in fact, the look of a girl resembles a teenager with an undeveloped body.

One of the features that do not allow applying makeup early is the structure of the skin: in children, it is thinner, therefore less protected and has increased penetration.

For children's make-up, hypoallergenic water-based and natural-based cosmetics with a light and gentle effect are used. It is fundamentally different from other analogues, as it is developed taking into account the increased tendency of the delicate skin of children to injury.

Children's cosmetics take into account the structure of the epidermal cells of each age, therefore it has a neutral PH, does not contain chemical components and preservatives that destroy the skin structure.

Children's make-up is a way to stand out in a particular case. It can be stage or festive. Depending on the occasion, it is great for:

• photoshoot;

• Birthday;

• performances (ballroom dancing, gymnastics);

• stage image (children's theatre);

• holiday;

• Prom in elementary school.

In general, this is a godsend for children, with which you can be yourself and at the same time be special. Such cosmetics do not clog pores, are distinguished by the saturation of the shades of the palette and do not irritate the delicate skin of the face.

Children's makeup can be traditional and fantasy (face art), when a unique pattern is applied to the face. The subject of the second method (face painting) is varied. Popular drawings of such a make-up are:

• wings of butterflies and birds;

• muzzles of animals;

• faces of clowns;

• pirate sketches;

• images of favorite idols (Monster High, Winx);

• horror stories in Halloween style;

• stars, sparks, hearts;

• small independent patterns.

Make-up girls do not accept the "heavy artillery" of cosmetics. Even face painting (drawing with water-based paints) should be easy. Otherwise, the appearance will lose the charm of age. Do not wear makeup to school: this is not a place to showcase children's makeup.

Painting a girl like a grown woman is ugly and tasteless. Even fashion shows of children's clothing collections by eminent couturiers bypass aggressive children's makeup. Experienced makeup artists slightly accentuate the eyes, leaving the children the right to individuality.

The purpose of children's makeup is to surprise and draw attention. In one case, this is a bright make-up, in the other - skillful facial accents. This is a godsend for those who want to bring a holiday to every opportunity.

For a theme party, performances, dances, colorful colors are allowed, but it is subject to a certain theme. For example, Halloween-style makeup is not to be confused with anything else. The same can be said about the make-up of a girl participating in a dance competition.

Makeup for performances is a hot topic.In cases where it is necessary, you can highlight the eyes and draw a picture in the same style as the clothes. So facial features will be visible from afar: this is the purpose of such makeup. Clothing and makeup should be in the same style and color.

Makeup under the photo, graduation 4th grade, birthday - a delicate work of a makeup artist. This is not a simple standard make-up: it is no less important than hairstyles and clothes.

Choosing beauty products for children's makeup is not an easy task. It must be borne in mind that not all components of women's and teenage cosmetics are acceptable:

• there can be no tonal cream, its use will lead to early aging and flabbiness of the skin;

• loose mineral powder is allowed with a light texture, which is applied in the thinnest layer;

• in extreme cases, a bactericidal corrector is used to remove dark circles around the eyes;

• the choice of lipstick depends on the occasion: little girls do not need it (lip balm is enough), fashionistas 8 and 9 years old can pay attention to a transparent version with minimal shine;

• mascara is bought for older girls, its acceptable color is brown, close to the color of the eyelashes;

• for photo shoots, choose light shades that are close to the natural skin tone;

• no eyeliner: this is the prerogative of adults, you should not age the baby in this way;

• glitter shadows, brown, white pencil and bright black mascara are allowed only for performances (it is contraindicated for photo shoots, birthdays).

Face painting is suitable for all children. These paints are harmless and allow you to instantly change the child beyond recognition.

Despite the richest choice of cosmetic products for children, in its choice you can come across a lot of pitfalls. If the drug is labeled “for children”, this is far from an indicator of a good and harmless product. Bright colorful packaging is a tricky trick of companies that attract children. It is difficult to dissuade a girl from buying this or that cosmetics if the package shows her favorite cartoon character or musical idol.

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when shopping for make-up:

• cosmetics should not contain hormones of plant and animal origin;

• exotic components are not allowed: they can cause skin irritation and allergies. The action of cosmetics should be mild;

• if the whole chain is written on the package chemical ingredients, this product cannot be bought;

• any beauty product should be washed off with plain water;

• expiration date is an important condition: expired products can seriously injure delicate unformed skin;

• expensive does not mean the best: the manufacturer himself is important, whose products have a lot of positive reviews;

• it is better to make a purchase in a trusted store (no kiosks and sales from the hands of representatives of cosmetic companies).

Children's makeup in the understanding of many is to put on mom's makeup. In fact, the technique for applying cosmetics depends on the specific case. This is a carefully thought-out style (cat girl, fairy, owl, stage character, Indian flavor, etc.), which will require knowledge of certain nuances of applying makeup.

In addition, a lot depends on the age of the girl: what is appropriate at 11 years old is unacceptable for little 5-year-old fashionistas.

The technique is done with face painting (fat-free paints or makeup pencils, such as water-based Alpino) and paint brushes. Paints can be mixed until the desired tone is obtained, if necessary, they are diluted with water. The drawing can start from any area of ​​the face.

With each new stroke, the tone intensifies and the pattern is drawn without touching the area of ​​​​the eyes and mouth. This technique resembles gouache painting. Thanks to the technique, you can create an image of a clown, Japanese, dudes, owls, pirates, cat girls or art in the spirit of anime.

This makeup is needed so that the face looks expressive from the stage and facial features are visible. It is good for gymnasts and young actresses. It is applied with the help of special brushes, using bright colors of cosmetics. The technique can be mixed when using cosmetics and water-based face paints.

After powdering the skin of the face, shadows are applied to the eyelid area to match the stage costume, then contours are given to them so that they can be better seen from afar. Eyelashes are an important point: without them, makeup will not be bright enough. We must not forget about lipstick: the case requires it. So that it does not smear when touched, you need very little money. It is applied to the center of the lips, stretching to their borders.

Thematic makeup of the girl depends on the chosen image. This factor determines the intensity of the make-up and the set of cosmetics. In some cases, it is enough to correct the skin, powdering the gloss and barely walk on the upper eyelids with shadows. In others, a puppet image is specially created.

To do this, shadows of different shades are applied to the mobile and lower eyelids, creating an ombre effect.Then they use a brown pencil, drawing a line along the growth of the eyelashes along the upper eyelid and from below in the region of the outer corner of the eye, drawing a thin stroke that repeats the shape of the eye. The turn of the mascara comes: it is applied in one layer on the upper eyelashes.

This is a special style when a little freedom is allowed. It should be appropriate, natural. Since this day is special, you can allow some glitter and shadows. However, there should be a measure in everything: a generous make-up of a five-year-old child will be ideal only in the form of drawings on the skin.

Older girls can powder their face, apply some shadows and lightly tint their eyelashes. Instead of lipstick, it is better to use a transparent gloss: children often forget that their lips are made up, so it is possible that the lipstick will smear.

When decorating a child with cosmetics, one should not forget that beauty is naturalness and health. The first step to creating beautiful makeup should be hygiene. Clean and healthy facial skin is an excellent basis for any make-up, whether it be a classic or a carnival look.
