Beautiful eye makeup is a topic that excites many women.
Walkthrough
Make-up eyes today are comparable to the art of the artist. The task of the makeup artist is to show the depth and expressiveness of the look, while leaving the woman the right to individuality. Using different makeup techniques, you can create appropriate images for any style. The shape of the eyes of each representative of the fair sex is individual. It determines the method of applying cosmetics.
Thanks to the changeable mood, a woman is constantly in search of the perfect make-up that would present her in the best light. It is due to such experiments that eye makeup is so diverse today that it allows you to try on any image, taking into account the most demanding preferences.
It should be noted that eye makeup of different colors differs in a number of nuances. What is good for a brunette, is completely unsuitable for a blonde. In addition, you need to keep in mind the color type, as well as skin tone.
What will be needed?
When choosing cosmetics for the eyes, it is necessary to take into account many factors. In addition to an arsenal of the right cosmetics and brushes for application, you need to take care of preparing the skin. In addition, in order to choose the perfect makeup, you need to consider the color, cut and depth of the eyes.
The basic rule of flawless makeup is perfect skin. The eyes do not look beautiful if they are surrounded by age spots and pimples. Hygiene and care of the dermis is a prerequisite, so you first need to put your skin in order.
Preparing a flat background
The choice of cosmetics cannot be accidental. It is advisable to buy products marked HD, which provide the most natural result with a dense layer of application, when you need to hide skin imperfections. To give your face a flawless look you will need:
- Base makeup;
- tone cream;
- concealer;
- loose powder.
There should always be two shades of foundation in a cosmetic bag: a dark tone is needed to even out the base, a light one masks what the first layer could not hide.
In addition to toners, you need a concealer. It gives the skin a perfect look and should be one shade lighter than the skin in tone. It evens out the complexion and is indispensable if there is no light foundation. Powder is needed loose: it lays down in a thin, translucent layer, while giving the skin a haze.
Cosmetics and tools
Eye makeup is not complete without the use of brushes:
- gloss with beveled pile (eyebrow shaping);
- narrow round (emphasis);
- small (drawing shadows);
- round medium (shading shadows).
Make-up eyes are not feasible without beautiful shadows. Their texture can be matte, with sparkles (glitter), shimmer. Shadows come in several varieties:
- dry (single or in a set with an applicator);
- in the form of a pencil (a convenient option for beginners);
- liquid (ultra-resistant, an alternative to liquid eyeliner);
- cream eyeshadow (softened th pencil).
The most necessary are dry, others are selected at will.
Flashy and acid paints are unacceptable: the color palette of shadows should be noble. If you want to add creativity and luxury, you can use rhinestones.
To highlight the eyes, make the look wide open and expressive, you will need appropriate accents. The cosmetic bag should contain a pencil and eyeliner. For a variety of style, it is worth buying mascara in two colors: brown and black. The first is appropriate during the day, the second is indispensable in the evening and is the accent of a solemn make-up.
Beautiful eye makeup does not tolerate monotony: one pencil is not enough. Often make-up is performed in two or even three shades. Therefore, brown, black and white pencils are a must. Blondes should add a gray pencil to this palette: in combination with shadows, it can bring lightness and naturalness to the image.
Few people pay attention to this, but without an even, clear and symmetrical shape of the eyebrows, perfect eye makeup is impossible. Today, the fashion industry offers various makeup accessories. For a flawless look, you will need eyebrow stencils. This simple technique allows you to make them symmetrical, while varying the shape.
The minimum makeup for eyebrows is a pencil. You should not buy a black product: the eyes are the focus of makeup.Everything else is secondary. When adding a pencil to a cosmetic bag, you need to take into account its tone, taking into account the color of the hair:
- the shade of the eyebrows of brunettes should be a tone lighter than the hair;
- the eyebrows of blondes are a tone or two darker than the natural color of the curls.
Beautiful eye makeup is emphasized by the right lipstick.
We need soft, muted colors, otherwise the lipstick will interrupt the accent of the eyes. The best tones are translucent, natural. You can use a bright color, but only in special cases or when lips become an accent.
Types of make up
The main tools that determine the look of makeup are shadows, pencil or eyeliner. The intensity and nature of makeup depends on them. Depending on the purpose, make-up can be:
- everyday (natural);
- puppet (for Asian eyes);
- evening (saturated and bright);
- professional (for photo shoots).
Makeup for every day is natural.
This is an easy and simple eye make-up. Basically, cosmetics of natural and muted tones are used.
Doll make-up in the style of Korean women is universal and is distinguished by the presence of light shades of shadows and nude cosmetics. This is a gentle make-up for sagging eyelids with the effect of a wide-open look.
An evening look cannot be faded: bright, saturated and even dark tones of the palette are welcome. Not only brown, but also blue, green, gold, silver shadows, as well as black accents in the form of eyeliner and mascara are used.
Professional makeup is done by a makeup artist and involves the correct placement of accents for the camera. It is always rich, but not vulgar, takes into account a certain image, age, gender and theme. The palette of tones can be varied.In addition, additional decor (rhinestones, face art) can be used here.
In addition to the main types, beautiful eye makeup is performed using the following techniques:
- "banana" (the design of the moving eyelid resembles an exotic fruit);
- "bird" (a technique that makes the upper eyelids look like the open wings of birds);
- "cat's eye" (changing the shape of the eye through eyeliner, giving it a slanted look);
- pencil (make-up with pencils);
- "smoky eyes" (smoky eye make-up, ideal for evening and formal events).
Lessons for beginners
Make a beautiful eye makeup on the strength of any girl. You can follow the step-by-step ritual of professional makeup artists, putting into practice their schemes and different techniques. To make a make-up correctly and avoid mistakes, it is better not to experiment with the instructions of professionals.
Depending on the shape and shape of the eyes, the technique of applying cosmetics can be:
- classical;
- horizontal;
- vertical;
- diagonal.
All techniques are good for deep-set eyes. The classic is universal and designed for eyes of any type and cut. Horizontal can be used for owners of bulging and round eyes.
Using different techniques, you can effortlessly change the shape of the eyes, make them expressive and present in the best light.
For round eyes
The main task is to change the shape towards the almond-shaped. Matte shadows of medium and dark tones are taken as the basis (mother-of-pearl and a light shade will enhance the roundness of the eyes).
A lighter tone should be applied to the area of \u200b\u200bthe eyelid from the ciliary edge to the eyebrow line. A dark shade accentuates the outer corner and slightly emphasizes the lower (fixed) eyelid, reducing the roundness of the eyes.
Mandatory adjustment in the form of an arrow on the movable eyelid, whether it be a pencil, a special marker or eyeliner. For expressive eyes, mascara is best applied to the upper lashes, increasing the intensity of the layer to the outer corner. The shape of the eyebrows should be clear, but without creative curves.
For almond-shaped
Almond-shaped eyes allow a lot of experiments. Selecting cat or Asian eyes is easy: you need light shadows, a pencil and mascara. To remove the heaviness of the look, you need to work with the shape of the eyebrows, slightly raising the outer edge.
If you want to increase the size of your eyes, you need light shadows: they are applied to the upper eyelid and slightly emphasize the lower one.
Then the outer corner is accentuated with a darker tone.
To enhance the effect, you need a thin line with white shadows or a pencil. The brown outline from the center of the moving eyelid and a little at the bottom will change the shape to the desired one. The final touch will be mascara in two layers on the upper and one on the lower eyelid. You need to be careful with the arrows: they can make the eyes narrower.
For light
This eye color needs light shades of shadows and an emphasis on the lips. Dark shadows are not desirable, but if the hair is dark, then it is acceptable. The choice of cosmetics palette depends on the specific case and time of day. It is important not to overload the image with excess cosmetics.
The use of light shades will give lightness to the look. If you apply a make-up that exaggerates your eyes in the style of “smoky eyes” during the day, and even make up your lips with bright lipstick, the look will be vulgar and devoid of taste. Lightness is easier to create with light, almost white shadows at the inner corner, beige in the center and a shade of cocoa in the outer corner area. To highlight the eyes, you can use a dark gray eyeliner or a pencil of a similar shade.Mascara on the upper eyelid is the finishing touch.
For marsh
Swamp-colored eyes are unusual and need to be accentuated with a pencil or shadows. Such a make-up obeys the rules of cosmetics for brown and green eyes. In fact, you can use any shades of cosmetics, the game of contrasts is welcome, but the tone of the iris and shadows are not allowed to match.
A black soft pencil is a great solution. With its help, the upper and lower eyelids are accentuated and an arrow is drawn, which should not be too thin or wide. Shiny shadows are undesirable, but matte light on the inner and dark on the outer eyelid is the ideal solution. It is better to emphasize eyebrows not with a pencil, but with shadows to match the hair.
For brown
The perfect shade needs the right accent. For a casual look, light colors of cosmetics are good, evening make-up needs a bright palette, eyeliner and black mascara. The lines should be as thin as possible: this will open the eyes and not reduce the size of the eyes. An excellent option would be to shade the shadows with an ombre effect: sharp transitions are unacceptable, otherwise it will not be possible to emphasize the natural beauty.
Makeup in oriental style allows thicker arrows, but it is not at all necessary to make them too long: this can close the look. Eyelashes can be enlarged with loose powder or special two-phase mascara. The choice of eyeliner for brown-eyed girls is unlimited: using the contrast technique with shadows, it can be brown, purple, green, lilac.
For blue
It is better for blue-eyed natures not to overload the beauty of the eyes with a whole artillery of cosmetics. The sky shade can become dull against the background of wide eyeliner and black shadows. This make-up obeys the rules for light eyes and needs lightness.Only then will it be perfect. Bright colors are allowed for the evening, but then the accent of the lips is excluded.
Common mistakes
Eye makeup does not accept mistakes. Before applying cosmetics, it is worth considering the experience of makeup artists explaining the reason for unsuccessful makeup:
- the absence of a base under the shadow reduces the durability of cosmetics;
- too dense layers of foundation create a mask effect;
- too light concealer makes the eyes bulge and makes the bags under the eyes brighter;
- the effect of illuminated eyes is created by means of a corrector (not a concealer!);
- unkempt eyebrows spoil the overall impression, too thin ones add age and deprive facial features of relief;
- mascara with lumps and a sticky effect destroys perfect makeup (a special comb and no more than three layers of cosmetics are required);
- the blue color of the shadows is acceptable only for brown-eyed and blue-eyed girls (in some cases, and on the podium);
- the use of shadows of more than three shades is unacceptable and ugly;
- mother-of-pearl shadows in the outer corner of the eye spoil the intended style: the radiance of the eyes is achieved with the help of shimmering eyeliner or mother-of-pearl in the center of the eyelid;
- eyeliner on a fixed eyelid ages the face, eliminates the openness and expressiveness of the gaze, makes the eyes smaller;
- an abundance of blush deprives the image of lightness;
- sharp borders without a smooth transition spoil the entire make-up (you need shading);
- kayala eyeliner makes the eyes smaller;
- shiny shadows increase the size of the eyes, matte - reduce;
- the identical color of the eyes and shadows is unacceptable (in extreme cases, only a pencil or eyeliner can save makeup);
- the red color of the shadows makes the eyes sick, swollen and tearful;
- emphasizing the eyes, do not highlight the eyebrows or lips.
Knowing the authoritative opinion of stylists, it is not difficult to make beautiful eye makeup.
What to shoot?
Make-up removal is a prerequisite that allows the skin to retain youth and beauty for longer. If you do not remove cosmetics in time, this will cause clogged pores, acne, acne, wrinkles and premature aging of the skin.
It is unacceptable to sleep with makeup: from this, the eyelashes become brittle and weakened, the dark circles around the eyes stand out brighter, and the skin of the eyelids becomes senile and sagging.
Correctly, makeup is removed as follows: first lipstick, then eyes, and then - the skin of the face and décolleté. Eye makeup is removed in the direction from the inner corner to the outer with delicate movements. A cotton pad can be moistened with water, and then add a cleanser: this will save makeup remover.
It is better to use lotion, micellar water or milk: their action is more gentle compared to soap. Other means of removing make-up include oils: castor, peach, almond. You can remove makeup using the Japanese technique: using oil applied all over the face. In this case, after the massage procedure, washing with mousse is provided, after which a moisturizing lotion is used.
The foam has a drying effect, so it is undesirable to use it, as it will dry out the skin of the eyelids.
How to choose colors?
In order not to make a mistake in choosing a color palette, you should start from your own eye color:
- blue-eyed shades of peach and coral colors are suitable for natures with a beige complexion; cosmetics in beige and brown tones harmonize perfectly with an ivory skin tone;
- green-eyed girls with a warm skin tone are shown nude and lilac colors of the palette, and if the skin tone is cold, it is better to use brick and coffee colors;
- owners of gray eyes and warm tones of the skin, powdery and terracotta shades of the palette are ideal; for a cold skin tone, you should pay attention to beige and purple colors;
- with hazel eyes harmonize purple, blue and emerald shade of cosmetics;
- dark brown eyes need a bronze, dark nude, swamp and emerald color of the shadows;
- for chameleon eyes (gray-blue), allowing you to change the color depending on the tone of cosmetics, you can use steel, light blue, diluted blue paints, graphite color, purple, beige, silver-coral, copper and grassy shades of the palette;
- an interesting solution for brown and marsh eyes there will be a black and white smoky make-up.
In addition, you can take into account the type of appearance (“lightness”).
For example, a light type (light skin tone, hair and eyes) is best suited for light tones of cosmetics, while dark and unusual shadows will look better on owners of dark hair and dark skin.

Using the techniques of makeup artists, you can repeat any make-up tutorial.
For chameleon eyes
Having evened out the skin tone and using the base under the shadow, they begin to create a bright make-up:
- with the help of a pencil shadow, an arrow is drawn on the ciliary line of the upper eyelid;
- using a brush, shade the arrow in the direction from the inner corner to the outer;
- the remnants of the shadows spend a couple of strokes on the lower eyelid, enhancing the color to the inner corner of the eye;
- then dark shadows are needed to accentuate the inner corner;
- a thin line is drawn in black along the eyelash growth line along the lower eyelid, the arrow along the upper one should be wider;
- to give the look a shimmer, liquid shadows with glitter are added at the base of the eyelashes;
- it remains to make up the eyelashes and comb them with a special brush.
Smokey eyes
Chic haze makeup is one of the most popular today. He is able to bring luxury and solemnity to the image. Moreover, such a make-up is performed simply:
- to keep the shadows for a long time, apply the base;
- then use black shadows or a special pencil, marking the crease of the upper eyelid and not touching the center;
- using a flat brush, shading is performed, after which the lower eyelid is emphasized with the edge of the brush and softens the transition;
- the center of the upper eyelid is filled with a shadow of a contrasting color (for example, blue) and the tone is stretched to the corners of the eye, connecting two shades of shadows;
- using a pencil, the contour of the eye is outlined with a thin line;
- the outer corner is darkened and shaded;
- at the end, the eyelashes are painted with black mascara: two or three layers of the upper and one or two layers of the lower ones (having made up the eyelashes, they are combed, eliminating the effect of “spider legs” - stickiness and lumps).
When performing beautiful eye makeup, one should not forget about the shape of the eyebrows: it must be well-groomed.
If you need to highlight the bend and demonstrate clarity, light shadows are applied at the lower eyebrow growth line a tone lighter than the complexion.
