Makeup under a burgundy dress
Burgundy color has a number of shades and several meanings. This color palette is considered very rich, sophisticated, sensual, but at the same time restrained and mysterious. Burgundy color is associated with a rich bouquet of fragrant expensive wine. It is a seasoned and multifaceted drink - as well as a color that speaks of the good taste of those who prefer it. Only a true connoisseur of beauty can appreciate all the charm of burgundy, as well as a high-quality grape drink.
Color palette
Dark red with brown and raspberry tints - this is burgundy. There is nothing surprising in the fact that he is considered noble. It is this lady who will choose a burgundy dress as an evening dress. We can safely say that this is a strong, passionate and sexual nature that is not afraid of anything and is ready for new discoveries and achievements. She is full of energy, ready to act and take risks.
Makeup under a burgundy dress should reflect the energetic nature of this color. You can safely do a make-up with an emphasis on the lips. To do this, lipstick should be chosen to match the tone (or slightly different). In this case, cherry-colored, red and, of course, burgundy cosmetic products are perfect. For evening make-up, this is the best option.
In the daytime version, it is better not to highlight the lips, otherwise the image will turn out to be too flashy. You can use colorless gloss or lipstick in natural and pastel shades as a lip product.
The color palette for the eyelids is selected depending on the tone of the skin, hair, eyes. The latter, with the help of the right shadows, can be easily emphasized and highlighted. However, there are also colors that are ideal for both brown-eyed and light-eyed beauties in a burgundy outfit. These are beige shades, golden and brown. For a brunette with blue eyes, you can choose a bold version with pink-raspberry shadows as an evening make-up.
Universal blush for all fashionistas in burgundy - bronze. They beautifully highlight the cheekbones, emphasizing the natural beauty of the curves of the lines.
Step-by-step instruction
An evening make-up for brunettes in a burgundy dress can be done on your own, without turning to professional makeup artists. It is worth disassembling the option suitable for brown eyes. Before starting work, the skin of the eyelids should be degreased so that the makeup lasts longer and lays down better. Then apply eye primer. It will smooth the skin, moisturize it, make the color of the shadows brighter and more saturated, and prevent them from rolling and clogging into folds and corners.
To work, you will need white matte shadows, black eyeliner, dark gray and dark red or burgundy shadows, as well as black mascara. To begin with, apply white shadows to the moving eyelid (upper and under the eyebrow). Then line the upper and lower eyelids (near the eyelashes) with a black pencil. Lengthen the eye and emphasize with an arrow in the outer corner, coming from the upper and lower eyelids. Blend the arrow, making it voluminous, and apply dark gray eye shadow on the outer corner and on the crease line of the upper eyelid.
Blend it all well so that there are no sharp transitions between color and texture. Dark red shadows are applied from above at the very last moment, on the outer part of the eyelid. The color also fades. Eyelashes, upper and lower, are stained with black ink in several layers. Do not forget about the eyebrows: they should be voluminous and thick, clearly defined and dyed.
Makeup for blondes
For blondes (as well as for fair-haired ones) there are some nuances in choosing makeup for a burgundy dress. It is better to focus on the eyes, it is also worth emphasizing them additionally. This can be done using black eyeliner or a pencil. Eyebrows in this case can be left in their natural form, only emphasizing their shape with a transparent fixing gel. Black eyeliner is applied to both the lower and upper eyelids.
White shimmery eyeliner (or shadows applied to the inner corners of the eyes) will help make the look even more expressive. For blondes, it is better to choose light pink (or another delicate color) as foundation shadows. Skin tone should be perfectly even. To hide redness and unevenness, as well as black circles under the eyes, be sure to use a concealer. It is worth picking up blush and lipstick in natural shades, you can use a transparent gloss on the lips.
The emphasis can also be placed on the lips - with the help of matte lipstick. In this case, the color of the lipstick should match the shade of the dress as closely as possible. The lipstick should lie perfectly flat, for this you need to use a special primer. Blush choose from a pink palette to create a bright and healthy look. On the eyes, you can use only a pencil, mascara and light shadows throughout the eyelid; eyebrows should be as natural as possible.
Graduation dress
For such a special and exciting event, a burgundy dress is perfect. The graduate will look like a real queen of the evening in it and will eclipse everyone with her mysterious and sophisticated way.
For a blond mermaid with long hair, a dark red or burgundy floor-length dress is ideal - with a top made of mesh material. The outfit adorns the original belt. A make-up for such an image will be required with an emphasis on the eyes. In this case, even smoky eyes will do. The bright jet black look is sure to grab attention.
It will be necessary to emphasize and highlight the eyebrows. They should look wide, thick and voluminous. With this makeup, it is best to use blush and lipstick in natural tones, as close to natural as possible. Skin tone is evened out with primer, foundation and concealer. The face should be perfectly even and smooth.

For eye makeup, you can use two shades of bronze shimmering shadows: a lighter tone is superimposed closer to the inner corner of the eyelid, a dark one to the outer. Be sure to blend the makeup well so that there is no noticeable transition from one color to another. At the same time, eyebrows can be covered with a transparent gel so that they retain their natural look. Additional eyeliner is not required. Black mascara is applied to the eyelashes with a twisting effect.
