The art of makeup is for this reason called that it is possible to apply cosmetics correctly only after learning this first. Good makeup is truly an art that comes to life only in the hands of a person with artistic taste. However, this does not mean at all that the mere mortal cannot master this art. Everything is possible! And comprehension of the basics should begin with the three whales on which the art of makeup is based : cosmetics must be applied naturally, it must be to the face and match the situation.
There are three varieties of makeup: day, night and special (special). The daylight is characterized by naturalness and light shades, it should be almost invisible in bright light. Evening should be more expressive and vibrant, consistent with clothing and accessories. Special - for catwalks, beauty contests and cinema. It’s better to trust a professional to choose makeup for especially important occasions (for example, for a wedding). But in all other circumstances, you can safely experiment.
Good makeup does not begin with colors, but with skin care. The program for caring for her is selected taking into account the age-related characteristics of the skin, its type and condition. Be sure to clean it twice a day with milk, foam or mousse, tone and nourish with a moisturizer. Periodically, it is also necessary to apply additional care in the form of masks.
You need to start applying makeup with a thin layer of a simple foundation. You can correct the complexion and mask minor skin imperfections with the help of foundation and a special corrector. The color of the tone and powder should match the complexion to make the look look natural. Blush should be used very carefully, especially during the day, so that they do not seem too bright.
The shape and color of the eyebrows significantly affects the look of the make-up. The correct form makes the eyes expressive and open. To achieve the correctness of the shapes, you need to remember that the inner corner of the eyebrows should be at the level of the inner corner of the eyes, and the ending should be on the tangent between the corner of the lips and the outer edge of the eye. Too thick eyebrows make the image heavier and even add extra years, so you should get rid of unnecessary hairs.
The art of makeup is based on such an important principle as the presence of only one accent - either the eyes or the lips. Otherwise, the makeup will look tasteless and even vulgar.
Shadows can be any shade. If the eyes are set close, it is recommended to shade the inner corner with a light pencil, if wide - with a dark one. The color of the shadows is selected individually depending on the shade of the eyes and the type of makeup. Contrast shadows help emphasize the natural color of the eyes. For example, green eyes are much more profitable to shade with pink shades than to resort to green. Do not get involved in eyeliner. It should be perfectly thin and even, because with careless or excessive application it can simply age you.
When using mascara, the art of makeup recommends following the golden rule: each eyelash should be separate, gluing should not be allowed, only in this case you can achieve expressive look and exquisite look.
Lip makeup should be done so as to correctly adjust their shape: for example, give volume or make it less puffy. This effect can be achieved using a contour pencil of the same color with lipstick. To correct the shape, the contour must be applied along the inner or outer line of the lips, and then complete the makeup with lipstick. It is advisable to choose the color of the lipstick so that it harmonizes with the natural color of the lips.
The make-up artist recommends starting makeup on lips by applying a small amount of hygienic lipstick on them to soften them a little. Then with the help of a sponge you can apply a little foundation and a light layer of powder on them. So the lipstick will last much longer.
So that the makeup does not “float”, it is better to use cosmetics based on wax or silicone. Dare! Beauty helps to achieve a lot in life!
