In the modern world of fashion and beauty, make-up correction is indispensable, as it is a unique tool that allows you to work wonders. Any skin defect or flaw is easily hidden, and the face gets the desired shape. This process begins with modeling and leveling, therefore, it resembles the work of an artist who, when drawing a picture, first primes the canvas, then makes general sketches, and only then proceeds to draw all the important details.

The "general plan" is performed with the help of blush and powder. "Drawing" the face should be done with good lighting, taking into account the general recommendations of modeling.

An oval face is considered the standard of beauty, but representatives of a rectangular or heart-shaped face should not be upset, because thanks to makeup, this shape can be quickly changed. Often this requires only the application of a base foundation, and the skin color immediately evens out. To obtain the desired face shape, there are some features of applying makeup:

• Round shape. An elongated and elongated face is made slightly round with the help of dark contours, they darken the edge of the chin, cheekbones, temples and the upper part of the forehead. All side areas are slightly lightened. Blush is applied horizontally in wide lines. As a result, the face acquires the necessary proportions and visually expands.
• For a "polygonal" shape (square or rectangle) a smoothing correction is applied, in which dark shades of makeup are applied from right to left and from top to bottom in symmetrical lines. The eye area, bridge of the nose, forehead and chin are brightened, and the cheekbones are covered with blush. A similar procedure is performed with both a rectangular and square face, the only thing is that darker colors are required for "squares".

• Rhombus characterized by high forms, but if such a look does not correspond to the nature of the beauty, then the rough contours of the cheekbones can be easily smoothed out with makeup. Light tones are superimposed on the entire forehead area, in some cases on the corners of the jaws. In this case, the blush is shaded with smooth movements from the temples down.
• "Pear" or trapezoid. This is a face with a large jaw. To equalize the proportions between the upper and lower zones of the face, the cheekbones are darkened, after which blush is applied with wide lines. At the same time, the forehead is lightened, and the chin is reduced due to the correction of the corners of the jaw.
• Triangle. The main task of makeup in this case is to narrow the wide forehead and widen the narrow chin. A dark contour is superimposed on the cheekbones and temples, and the area of ​​​​the eyes and forehead is lightened.

To achieve the maximum effect from makeup correction, it is necessary not only to know the type of your face, but also to choose the right cosmetics.Thanks to a skillful play with colors, you can narrow your forehead, lift your nose or round your face in a matter of minutes.

• highlighter;
• concealer;
• Tonal base;
• Powder;
• Blush.

It should be noted that all cosmetics are selected depending on the type of skin and face shape. The most ideal is an oval face, it is perfect in its proportions and, as a rule, does not need to be adjusted. For women with this shape, it is enough just to emphasize the natural beauty with blush, they are applied to the cheekbones with smooth movements. A slight highlighting of the central part of the face is also allowed. As for the representatives of the Mongoloid and pear-shaped type of face, it is very important for them to choose the right foundation, blush and shadows.

Thanks to competent makeup, it is possible to hide all skin defects and rough shapes. In order for the process of creating an image to please with an excellent result, makeup artists recommend choosing cosmetics depending on the type of appearance. As you know, makeup artists conditionally divide women into four main types: Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring.

Women "Winter"characterized by naturally black eyebrows and eyelashes, a pink tint to the lips and a pale complexion. Therefore, such girls should pay special attention in makeup to bright and deep shades, excluding yellow. Lipstick should be chosen in rich tones, and dark shadows are well suited for the eyes.

Girls are much rarerSpring".They have light eyelashes and eyebrows, blond hair and a heart-shaped chin. For this color type, transparent, delicate tones are used for makeup correction. Blush are selected in red tones. Makeup in dark colors is not recommended, as the image will turn out to be unnatural.

For beauties with color type "Summer» characterized by the presence of beautiful ruddy skin, gray eyes and hair of any color. In this case, for makeup, an exclusively cold range of purple, blue or gray is selected. As for the mysterious women?Autumn”, then they are especially distinguished by their color and expressiveness. Their makeup should consist strictly of cosmetics in matte shades; shadows and blush with tints or shine cannot be used to correct the face.

Of course, makeup can work wonders, it helps to emphasize the contour of the face, reduce the forehead, create the effect of full lips, and widen the eyes. But all this is possible only if the girls not only choose the right makeup, but also skillfully apply it. Therefore, corrective makeup must be performed step by step. First of all, you should choose a tonal base according to your skin type. To get rid of large facial features and achieve ideal shapes in the image, it is recommended to use different shades of cream - light colors are suitable for the entire surface of the face, but those areas that need to be slightly reduced will be covered with darker shades.

It should be remembered that each skin color has its own tone. For the correct application of makeup, this must be taken into account.Light skin goes well with natural and pink tonal colors, dark skin harmonizes with yellow and beige, and for pink, you can use olive gamut.

In makeup, it is also important to apply powder correctly. Colored powder can improve skin tone, especially for triangular and diamond-shaped faces, where color correction is often used. Translucent powder helps smooth out pores, but bronze powder is considered a good choice for creating a tan effect. This cosmetic product is applied in several ways, but the most popular is powdering with a soft brush. For dry skin, as well as when making glossy makeup, it is best to use a powder puff, it evenly moves over the face and blends the powder with smooth movements.

As for blush, their purpose is to model the face by mixing several colors. They are applied in a thin layer over the powder, and then shaded with a brush. If oily blush is used in makeup, then they are applied with a sponge or fingers.

Makeup can be done both independently and use the services of professional makeup artists. The modern pace of life and the constant lack of time makes many women use cosmetics on their own, so in such cases, you should use the following recommendations:

• Before starting correction the skin of the face is thoroughly cleansed, a special peeling will help with this.After the epidermis is clean, it is moisturized with a cream and a tonal base is applied.
• Foundation is used in small quantities. A thick base layer will not only spoil the makeup, but also make wrinkles expressive.
• Powder used at the very end of makeup. It is applied with a special brush.

• To relieve signs of eye fatigue and masking "bags" should choose a concealer. It helps to hide fine wrinkles and minor imperfections in the epidermis.
• Blush is applied exclusively to the cheekbones. The correctness of their placement is easily determined - the cheeks are retracted, the resulting contour will be the main place for blush.

To date, corrective makeup is a universal tool in cosmetology, but in order to achieve an unusual effect with its help, you need to use cosmetics correctly. The slightest inaccuracies can only harm and ruin everything. So, for example, you can’t apply makeup on dry skin, otherwise you get a terrible look of flakes. The same goes for choosing the tone of the base. If you want to make the face rounder, incorrect color correction will give it rough features.

You can't sleep with makeup on. This mistake is very harmful to the skin. Regardless of the prevailing conditions, cosmetics should be washed off with milk or simple washing. Excessive application of powder is also unacceptable, as it will close the pores and increase the secretion of sebum. Mascara deserves special attention. Eyelashes need to be painted in several layers, but in moderation. A thick layer will cause them to stick together and the image will instantly deteriorate.
