Makeup for teenagers

Looking beautiful is every girl's dream. Starting from adolescence, a whole arsenal of cosmetics is used. Often the look of the makeup of young natures looks repulsive. When applying make-up, it is worth considering the fact that makeup for teenagers is a separate topic that deserves special attention.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to look like an adult. However, a high-quality make-up implies not only emphasizing facial features: it is important to be able to hide flaws.

Teenage makeup cannot be bright and flashy: today any girl knows that it is ugly and looks ridiculous. However, without the necessary skills and rules for applying cosmetics, the result simply cannot be perfect.

The first rule of cosmetics is naturalness. Makeup should be subtle and light. It is a cute, natural appearance that will create the best impression.

The second rule of makeup is facial skin care.Due to changes in the hormonal background (against the background of the maturation of the body), during this period, the skin often faces a deterioration in its condition. If a girl considers herself an adult, you need to start with careful facial skin care. Otherwise, you can lose the beauty and health of the dermis, as well as become a hostage to your own complexes.

Skin in adolescence is especially vulnerable. Choosing the first cosmetics, you need to give preference to good quality mineral products. It is desirable that the preparations are hypoallergenic and suitable for particularly sensitive, delicate skin. Rule number three is the choice of high-quality cosmetics with a calming and healing effect.

The fourth rule is the emphasis of age. Professional stylists emphasize that the purpose of teenagers' makeup is to accentuate the charm of youth. In no case is it allowed to coarsen facial features using all available beauty artillery.

High-quality makeup involves the use of special tools. There should not be many of them: the main thing is that they are applied correctly:

• a large round brush - for powder;
• small brush - for blush;
• two small ones (flat and voluminous) - for shading shadows;
• eyelash curlers;
• small brush - for stretching lipstick.

Makeup essentials for teenagers include:

• bactericidal concealer;
• loose powder;
• base for shadows;
• shadows;
• dark gray or brown mascara;
• pomade;
• transparent lip gloss.

It is not recommended for young natures to use a pencil or eyeliner: this can change facial features for the worse, add age. If you don’t want to give up a pencil, you need to purchase a tool to match your hair color. Moreover, the task will be to ensure that the pencil on the face is not visible: it must be gently shaded to create the effect of naturalness.

It is important to understand that any appropriate makeup is not a reason to demonstrate the entire arsenal of cosmetics. You should not be equal to adult women, whose make-up screams with all acid paints.

The choice of shade of powder, blush should strive towards natural colors, as close as possible to the natural skin tone. Shades with the addition of peach and pinkish undertones are allowed (depending on skin type). The concealer should be half a tone lighter than the natural complexion.

Shadows can be taken in two or four shades. This will create a natural effect when shading. You should not buy acid, pink or blue shades: cold colors look ugly, pink and reddish ones will give the eyes a sick and swollen look. Experiments with aggressive tones are unacceptable: you cannot destroy natural beauty.

Ideally, the color of the lipstick is transparent. In adolescence, the girl's lips are distinguished by their natural brightness. You can buy clear gloss. And if you want a little accent, then you should look at coral, coffee, nude and light terracotta shades.It is better to refrain from mother-of-pearl: this effect requires clean skin and white teeth.

Shadows and eyebrow pencil - a separate issue. It seems to teenagers that too bright and wide eyebrows are the standard of beauty. In fact, they should not stand out, it is tasteless and looks rude.

You can’t allow a lot of accents on your face: in this case, they cease to be accents, creating the image of a gypsy out of a girl. At any age, it is important to emphasize the health of the skin and the expressiveness of the look. You need to show their natural beauty.

Stylists working in the fashion industry recommend that teenagers start using cosmetics at the same time as their facial skin care series. Do not apply make-up on uncleaned skin. In addition, make-up must be removed in the evening: it is unacceptable to sleep with makeup on your face.

Among the tips there are several undeniable rules:

• with sick and injured skin, makeup looks deplorable;
• before applying cosmetics, it is important to moisturize and prepare the dermis;
• you need to select shades of cosmetics in accordance with the color of the eyes, skin and hair, as well as taking into account a specific case (for lessons, birthday, disco);
• you can not use a dense masking preparation: it will create the effect of a mask and emphasize the foci of rashes;
• the dramatic tone in makeup should be minimized (less dark colors that create a negative effect);
• you should never copy someone's style, imitating a specific person: it is important to remain yourself, this will allow you to be individual;
• there is no need to use mascara every day: this can cause a decrease in the number of eyelashes.

One of the terrible trends common among schoolgirls is the “duck lips” effect. You need to understand one thing: it is beautiful to be natural. Even after making up your lips, you do not need to show makeup and shape in this way.

Each age has its own limitations. What is good at 16 and 17 years old is completely inappropriate at 12. In order not to oversaturate the face with an excess of cosmetics, you should pay attention to the age of the girl:

• 12 years - emphasis on skin health, subtle shadows and transparent gloss instead of lipstick. An alternative option is suitable as a mascara (transparent mascara-gel with vitamins A, E).
• 13 years old - skin cleansing components, connecting a concealer to mask imperfections of the skin, therapeutic mascara and translucent peach-colored lipstick.
• 14 years – a light mineral powder is added to the concealer (to correct the imperfections of the dermis). Makeup allows for slight variations in shades of shadows, pinkish lipstick with a light texture and the appearance of mascara (1 layer).
• 15 years - the time of the appearance of a light foundation, eyeliner and eyebrows. Mascara is still used in a minimal amount, carefully combing the eyelashes and not allowing them to stick together. Lipstick becomes a little richer.
• 16 years - honing work with eye and eyebrow pencil, natural color of eyeshadows with a smooth transition of shades, a minimum of lipstick. The makeup of a 16-year-old girl allows you to emphasize the expressiveness of the look.
• 17 years - selection of makeup shades for a specific style. Time for deliberate experimentation.Foundation, powder, concealer, brown pencil or eyebrow gel, light lipstick texture are allowed.

In most cases, the purpose of everyday makeup will be associated with the school:

• Everyday. The school make-up of the girl is subject to a strict dress code like that of adult women working in the office. Bright colors are unacceptable - this is inappropriate. There can be no arrows and weighting of the image: this is a daytime make-up, which is light and emphasizes the freshness of the face. The main focus is skin health.
• On September 1. A special day allows for some solemnity. Be sure to highlight the blush, show a fresh, rested tone of the face. It is better to enhance a good impression with a neat hairstyle.
• For the last call. 9th and 11th grade - transitional time. The days of parting with the school are a little sad, but especially solemn. In these cases, some make-up freedom is allowed. You can enhance the accent of the eyes, choose a more saturated color of the shadows.

In addition, there are other cases for the use of teenage cosmetics:

• Circle, extracurricular activity. Traditional modesty, a minimum of shine and moderation of shadows. If possible, do without a pencil. This is the case when the class is not important (6, 7, 9, etc.): it is important to make a good impression on others.
• For a birthday. A reason to diversify the style, emphasizing the sense of taste. You can add a pink tone of lipstick, a darker brown shade of eyeshadow and a little shimmer for the eyes.
• To the disco. Bright experiments within reason. Matte lipstick in nude tones, black mascara and a slight highlight of the eyebrow line are allowed. At the age of 16-17, you can accentuate the look with a thin strip of eyeliner without the effect of "cat's eyes".
• stage makeup. The intensity depends on the specific character. In some cases, make-up requires a thorough make-up using foundation, concealer, eyeliner and several layers of mascara (for the effect of big eyes).

Making up beautifully in stages is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. By following all the steps of the instructions step by step, you can easily master the simple tricks of teenage makeup.

The standard technique is taken as a basis. If it does not involve the use of foundation (the skin is clean and does not need it), this step is skipped.

• Highlighting the purity of the skin. Before applying cosmetics, it is important to wash the skin and rinse it with cold water: this will narrow the pores.
• A pea-sized foundation is applied to dried skin, spreading over the T-zone, nose, forehead, chin and cheeks.
• For shading use a large brush. The layer should be thin, invisible.
• Hiding the imperfections of the skin, with the help of a concealer, they get rid of dark circles around the eyes, visible acne or inflammation.
• The finishing touch of flawless skin is a light layer of mineral powder, which is applied with a powder puff.
• With the help of a brown pencil, the eyebrows are made a little brighter by outlining the shape and shading it. There should not be any visible contour lines: everything is as natural as possible.

• A light-colored shadow is applied to the moving eyelid. With the help of shadows of a dark tone, the outer corner is highlighted. A light tone is passed along the lower eyelid (barely noticeable).
• To visually increase the size of the eyes, a thin, almost imperceptible stroke with white shadows is drawn along the lash line. The same can be done on the bottom edge.
• If there is no way without a pencil, they draw a soft, soft line along the growth of the eyelashes.
• Using mascara, paint the upper eyelashes in one layer. The lower ones can be left untouched, but if you really want to, you can barely straighten them with mascara. It is important that the eyelashes look natural, so after applying the mascara they need to be combed.
• Lipstick is chosen to match the lips. At this age, there can be no pencil strokes. It is enough to apply a little pigment in the center of the lips and use a brush to stretch the lipstick to the borders. To keep your lips from looking dry, you can walk on top of a transparent gloss. However, the excess should be blotted with a paper towel.
