Knowing how to correctly draw arrows on your eyes is always beneficial - this classic makeup element is suitable for anyone (if you choose the right shape and color) and will always contribute to creating a vivid image. Spend just a few minutes training and learn a useful skill for the future.
First of all, you need to understand which arrows you should draw. Some believe that this makeup element does not suit them at all, just because they could not find the option that suits them. The shape of the eyes, eyebrows and some features of the face as a whole affect the appearance of the arrows that will decorate your image. As a rule, problems arise when searching for the ideal line thickness and the degree of its going beyond the outer corner of the eye. Experiment in front of the mirror - this is the only way you can surely choose the appropriate shape and understand how to correctly draw arrows on the eyes.
How can I decorate my eyes? The brightest, most resistant and well-defined arrows are obtained using liquid eyeliner. The only problem is learning how to use it is quite difficult, therefore, this is not the best choice for a beginner. Handling with eyeliner is much easier. Moreover, if desired, the arrows drawn by him can be instantly turned into smokey eyes. Remember that pencil should be sharpened regularly. Special brushes for make-up allow you to draw arrows even using ordinary eye shadow.
Some sources advise you to choose the color depending on the time of year (that is, your color type). It is worth noting that all the rules of makeup are relative, and the only way to learn how to create the perfect look for you is through experimentation. Choose the color of the cosmetic product that you want.
So, how to draw arrows on the eyes? Let's talk about the process itself. Before proceeding, apply powder or foundation under your eyelids - the arrows will turn out brighter and last longer. It is desirable that the drawing hand has support. First, outline the arrow outline with a dashed line, then connect the line and expand it if necessary. If you decide to use eyeliner, but are still not very strong in the makeup technique, first paint your eyes with a pencil and only then circle what happened. Pull the eyelid to the temple - it will be easier to make a straight arrow. Make sure that there are no gaps between the drawn line and the eyelashes: you will not only lose the volume that can be achieved with eyeliner, but simply add sloppyness to the image.
Ready-made arrows need correction? Dampen a cotton swab with makeup remover and touch up the necessary parts. If the makeup was done with a pencil, you can simply create the aforementioned smokey eyes (blend the line and add a shade lighter on the eyelid). Finally, the mascara should be selected based on the color (everything is clear here - the shades should match as much as possible) and the thickness of the lines: lengthening is suitable for thin ones, and volumetric for thickened ones. Now you know how to draw arrows on your eyes.
