golden ink

In pursuit of bright colors and new solutions, designers of cosmetic companies, together with stylists, create more and more new products. Since the 1990s, colored mascara has been consistently popular, which every year goes further and further beyond youth cosmetics and theatrical make-up. Now it is not uncommon to meet a woman with purple, green or blue eyelashes, not only at a festive event, but also on the street or in the office.

One of the unusual solutions is a golden hue. Mascara with a metallic effect appeared on store shelves recently, but has already gained popularity. At the same time, golden mascara has become the most popular, which is not surprising - gold has always been associated with luxury and beauty, so this color is often chosen for evening receptions and youth parties. Apply a thin layer of mascara - and the shiny particles contained in it will give the eyelashes a light, unobtrusive shimmer. Or create a thick layer that will give the lashes a luxurious look worthy of a queen.

Traditional "royal" combinations are gold and black, gold and red, gold and purple. Red in eye makeup must be used very carefully, as it can give them a painful look and spoil the whole image. Black eyeliner combined with golden mascara will be a much more effective and “safe” solution. Apply eyeliner around the entire contour of the eyes, make straight arrows - and you will be a worthy successor to Cleopatra.

Purple color in combination with golden ink gives even more room for creative experiments. You can use both eyeliner and shades of a rich purple hue. And purple or plum can be a compromise option if you still haven’t decided to use red cosmetics. In addition, you can experiment with the simultaneous use of gold and purple mascara.

Gold mascara is useful in everyday life. It is especially relevant in summer - against the background of tanned skin, eyelashes of this color look very impressive. In addition, cosmetics with a metallic effect in the sun gives additional shine and radiance to the eyes.

Of all the color types, it is best suited for representatives of “warm” colors. The warmth of the golden hue goes well with the warm undertone of the skin, does not contrast with it and does not give the face an unhealthy pallor. In addition, gold perfectly emphasizes brown eyes. It will be much more difficult to adapt golden mascara to owners of fair skin and blond hair. It is permissible for them to use only a single-layer version of the application, otherwise such makeup will make the face heavier. And perhaps a better solution would be to abandon it altogether in favor of, for example, silver.

Colored mascaras rarely have the qualities for which women use mascara - this is giving volume, lengthening.In this regard, professional makeup artists advise you to first apply the usual black with the desired effect, and on top of it already colored and only on the tips. Based on this, some brands create double tubes with two brushes. Such a model can be found, for example, among the products of the Max Factor brand - this brown-gold mascara "Masterpiece Beyond Length Mascara", which since 2014 has remained one of the most popular options for golden mascara.

2014 was the peak of the popularity of golden mascara, its production was taken up by MAC, Yves Rocher and others. Now it can even be found in the catalogs of companies such as Oriflame. And IsaDora mascara is positioned as firming and hypoallergenic, so it will be a great find for people with sensitive skin.

The most common complaint about metallic mascara is poor quality coverage. Special particles are added to the composition of this cosmetic product, which give shine, so the uniformity of the coating is disturbed. Poor-quality mascara can stick eyelashes together, begin to crumble very quickly (sometimes even during application) and stain the face with sparkles that are not so easily removed from the skin. In addition, glitter can make it difficult to remove makeup, so be sure to pay attention to this and rinse your face thoroughly.
