Makeup for blue eyes

How different blue eyes can be! Some ladies look full of tenderness, like a box of kittens, while others pierce with ice, like a sword of a skilled warrior. Skillfully set the right tone helps make-up. How to skillfully play with paints, shapes and halftones, so that from the Snow Queen in a couple of strokes of the brush to turn into an angel, we will tell right now.

In short, the key feature of makeup will be the ability to go from one extreme to another. Blue-eyed go crazy with the lightest, sweetest shades of nude matte palettes, but aggressive red sparkles can also decorate the eye, and it will look just amazing. Even the most black color will only emphasize the brightness of the blue. The eyes will not get lost or dim in the abundance of the surrounding color.

If you want to make a delicate makeup, don't be afraid to use pink shadows. It can range from the lightest, subtlest shade to the richest pink, the classic Barbie color. All shades of beige and light gray are also at your disposal.

When it comes to brighter evening makeup, all shades of metallic shadows (gold, silver, bronze, rose gold) are perfect for blue-eyed people. Black "smoky eyes" is a win-win option. Deep burgundy tones or blood reds will also work beautifully against blues and make the eyes look more predatory.

Blue eyes are difficult to ruin, so makeup can be bright, dark, nude, brown, purple, pink, beige - absolutely anyone. The rest is nuances, of which there are quite a lot: the shape of the eye and face, hair color, age, outfit ... However, color solutions are far from all the features that need to be discussed. Pay attention to the location and shape of the eyes.

Your main goal will be to smooth out differences in the depth of the superciliary arch and eyelid. Most often, light colors are used for these techniques, pastel colors will be especially good. The mobile eyelid should be painted in darker "clothes". The lower lash line and the outer corner of the eye are also visually enlarged with the help of dark colors. The area bordering the upper crease of the eyelid must be covered with a transitional medium shade, and the area above the eyebrow can be made up with the lightest, even mother-of-pearl tone. The extra shine will help make your eyes look even wider, so you can use a highlighter instead of shadows.

The first thing to remember if you have small eyes - black eyeliner is your Achilles heel. Throw it away if you already have it, and if not, never buy it. You cannot use it for good. Your faithful companion should be a white pencil, which must be applied to the inner eyelid.

Curled eyelashes open the eyes, visually making the eyes larger than they really are. It is not recommended to use false eyelashes. They, like thick black arrows, hide space very much. If you want to increase their mass, increase eyelashes, but not too thick. You can try to use bunches, but you also need to know the measure with them.

For blue eyes, an ash-gray palette is suitable. With its help, you can add volume well and at the same time emphasize the color of the iris. Just below you will find a step-by-step instruction for "smoky eyes" in gray tones, which you can repeat without the help of an experienced makeup artist.

At first glance, such eyes are a dream, but their owners can also face some difficulties. For example, large eyes may be too round. In this case, it is best to use arrows. Give the look a bit of oriental aesthetics, slightly stretch the corners to achieve more expressiveness.

With mascara, too, try not to overdo it. A few coats of raven will make you the comical Elvira of the Darkness. If you want to make a contour, apply it with a pencil and along the inside of the eye. Apply dark shades of shadows on the moving part of the eyelid, and paint the area under the eyebrow in light colors. The main thing - do not use mother-of-pearl shades for this, they will add unnecessary volume, but only matte even colors. If you want to enhance the pigment, use a primer.

Having decided on the shape of the eyes, let's not forget about such an important factor as hair color.Depending on the shade and temperature, makeup can vary greatly.

The classic Russian beauty has grey-blue eyes and blond hair. Girls with such data do not want to be overloaded with a multi-layered difficult make-up. They are very suitable for the most simple and natural look. A little mascara, an even complexion with drops of blush in orange or pink shades, as well as small neat arrows or a little dusty light makeup in gray tones will be enough to look amazing. If this is an evening make-up, you can add some gold or even rusty shades, creating a semblance of “smoky eyes”. Smooth transitions are the main secret of successful makeup.

If red is your natural color, then you naturally have pale skin. In this scenario, the eyes on your face already stand out as a bright spot. To make an interesting make-up, a little mascara and light shimmery pink-gray shades will be enough. Such makeup looks quite expensive and at the same time is not too difficult to perform.

Juicy cyclamen color on your lips, a little blush on your cheeks, remove freckles with a primer and a good foundation and you are ready to go. There are not many red-haired beauties, but such spectacular ones are even more so, so don't worry, you will definitely be remembered.

If the red color is acquired, plus you are a lover of sunbathing, golden shades will look best on you. By experimenting with rainbow colors, you have a chance to look like a schoolgirl who secretly used a cosmetic bag from her mother.Do not use flashy colors and nuclear shades. If you want to revitalize your face, do it with lipstick. Everything will suit you, from maroon to nude beige, almost transparent.

If you are a kind of Megan Fox, almost everything will suit you. Insidious orange, dangerous purple or even snake emerald green, everything can be "on time". The only thing you need to pay attention to is the tone. Cold or warm, that is the question. Do not mix colors of different temperatures. If your hair gives off red, you should not use cold shades in makeup. This will cause dissonance in the image. Your ensemble needs to be harmonious, so pay attention to the reflections and features of the pigments, the inclusion of sparkles and the behavior of shadows in natural light. Before applying eye makeup, you can try it on the back of your hand.

The most important role in adjusting makeup along the oval of the face will be played by blush, highlighters, bronzers, in general, everything that can be attributed to the sculpting technique.

The color of the eyes itself will directly affect the tones of the same powder. For example, with pale skin and blue eyes, sugar pink colors will always look great, and on more tanned, coral orange will perfectly emphasize the blue tint. You can use the so-called "baked" blush, where in addition to the main matte color, there is often a shimmer shine. For blue-eyed people, it is better to choose powders with golden granules, and not with a cold glow.

A long chin and a high forehead will need to be balanced. Visually round the cheeks, applying blush to the center and shading in a horizontal direction.We apply a fairly prominent blush to the middle of the chin. It is better to shade the color with your fingers from the middle to the edges, exactly along the oval of the face. Additionally, you can highlight the cheekbones by powdering them a little with a bronzer.

It is better to choose shadows of light shades, as they will visually open the eyes. Don't forget the highlighter. Apply it under the brow and above the cheekbones. Additionally, you can brighten the outer corner of the eye, the same highlighter or white matte shadows will do just fine.

You need to fight with the lack of sharp corners and well-defined lines. To do this, you need to take the powder a couple of tones darker than your natural skin tone and darken the cheekbones. If you want to add blush, apply it in a triangle shape from the cheek to the nose with the sharp end pointing towards the ear. To highlight the eyes, you can use brown or black coloring along the contour. The main thing is to shade the line well. It is better to refuse clear arrows, do more make-up with shadows to play with volumes as you need it.

A wide forehead and an equally wide lower jaw, almost parallel to it, suggest that makeup will smooth out rough lines a little. Be sure to use foundation to set the light tone on the lower cheeks and chin. You can use a bronzer or powder a couple of shades darker than usual to darken the lower jaw and cheekbones. Try to achieve a triangular face shape.

You need to make sure that they have a curve so that they follow the shape of your eye. In this case, the line should not be too geometric. The transition should be soft, smooth, like a gentle sea wave.

As for shadows, don't use bright colors or many different colors in one look, they will only draw attention to the high forehead. When making a contour, forget about black eyeliner, brown, gray or purple pencil will look better with blue eyes.

Makeup for blue eyes, however, as for any other, is of the following types:

1. Everyday. Pastel colors, very careful shading and the most natural look are the key concepts of makeup for every day. It should be not too flashy so as not to distract from work, but at the same time stylish enough to make you feel at your best.

2. Classical. An even tone of the face, eyes with arrows, neat and small, a summer natural blush and juicy lips.

3. Natural. Its feature is not just a minimum of cosmetics, it may not be so small, the main thing is to use shades that are close to more natural colors.

This is a great summer option.

4. output image. Dark shades, glitter, bright colors - all this can be afforded in the evening. Your face can turn into a work of art of any genre - pop art, Japanese motifs, vintage and so on. The key word in this makeup is “image”.

Ideas for spectacular images that you can implement yourself:

1. Oriental makeup. If you want all the attention to your eyes, there is nothing better than choosing such a southern technique. She is at the same time frank and mysterious.A very thick layer of eyelashes and long black arrows that capture both the upper eyelid and the lower row of eyelashes frame the look like an expensive baguette picture.

2. Bright festive. It doesn’t matter where you are going: for a birthday, corporate party or just to meet friends, this evening you can afford a little color. Try, for example, adding juicy orange hues.

3. Theatrical. It is distinguished by its dramatic image and bright colors. This is a make-up that will be visible from the far rows. Long false eyelashes, an aquamarine tone on the waterline, light shading of the dense dark eye liner, an elegant arrow and a dense “smoky eyes” in purple tones. It's intriguing, captivating, and could very well be done on your own.

4. Makeup for a specific dress or outfit. Of course, most often girls are interested in makeup under a white dress. Yes, bridal make up is one of the most popular types. Do not overload the image of the bride with bright shadows. Most often, the eyes are decorated with smoky and pink flowers. To make the image more noble, matte shades are used. Very soft arrows, drawn with dark shadows, will also add romance to the image, and a lush row of false eyelashes will add a puppet, innocence and freshness to the picture.

   Do not forget blush and a very gentle, slightly glossy lip gloss.

   Often, girls with blue eyes like to match dresses to match the iris, so a blue or turquoise dress is a popular option. Makeup in this case can be very similar to wedding.The same light and soft, but at the same time quite multi-layered and attractive.

We choose make up depending on age:

• Youth makeup may be brighter. If you want to add yellow - please try red - delicious. Youth is good because it is very difficult to spoil it, so if you want to experiment, there is simply no better time for this. You can use sequins, rhinestones, feathers, false eyelashes - any novelties and trends will look relevant on you.

• age makeup for a woman after 50 should be more discreet. More attention should be paid to skin tone and relief alignment than bright colors. Use primers to make wrinkles less noticeable, foundation or heavy powder will help hide pigmentation and imperfections. A little blush will give freshness, a beautiful, slightly tweaked shape of the eyebrows will reduce years, and natural colors will make the look lighter.

Let's take a look at one of the most versatile techniques that can create both a light tone and a dense evening coverage. This style does not limit age, dress or hair color. Of course, we are talking about "smoky eyes".

We will create an image using the example of a smoky gray shade, which is ideal for blue eyes. We act in stages:

1. Initially, we prepare the eyes by applying the base under the shadows. This is important, because the tool not only evens out the surface and allows you to blend the shadows very gently, but also enhances the color. Also, the primer prolongs the durability of makeup, which for many will be an important factor.

2. We dress the lower movable eyelid in a train of gray shadows. It is better if they are waterproof or super-resistant, since the shadows under the eye during the day can crumble and lubricate the contour.

3. We paint the upper movable eyelid in the same tone, drawing a slightly almond shape. The center of the eyelid can additionally be decorated with a shimmery lighter shade of gray.

4. Water line as from above, and from below, clearly outline with a black pencil. It is also important that it is waterproof, otherwise the whole structure will fall apart in a couple of hours.

5. On the top crease of the eyelid apply a dark brown tone and blend it very well.

6. Space under the eyebrow can be lightened with a highlighter or matte white shadows.

7. To the inner corner eyes add an accent of bright coral shadows.

8. Eyelashes are curled and tinted with mascara. You can apply multiple layers.

Now that you have completely different examples and options available for inspiration, you can easily change your makeup at least every day. Try to emphasize all the advantages, especially highlight the blue of the eyes, because this is such a rarity. Daily, evening, festive, even wedding makeup will now always be perfect, because you know what suits you and how you can skillfully hide flaws.
