Makeup schemes: name, description, application rules and photos

Makeup perfectly complements any image of the girl and corrects the flaws that you want to hide. We can say with confidence that almost everything depends on the make-up - that is why it is important to know how to apply tone, make eye and eyebrow makeup. Each girl has her own make-up, but there are certain makeup techniques and schemes, following which you can create an amazing image.

The Most Important Rules to Know

There are basic principles of eye makeup that are important for absolutely every girl to know. If you follow them, you can add a unique and brilliant image. Therefore, before disassembling makeup schemes step by step, we will understand this:

• Remember: if you have an emphasis on the eyes, you need to make the lips more neutral, and, conversely, make the eye makeup minimal and natural when using bright lipstick. This is the most important rule in makeup. Remember the accents!
• In eye makeup, it is best to use two or three shades.
• The method of applying shadows, of course, depends directly on the shape of your eyelid. Like the arrows. Using different makeup techniques, you can visually change your eyes: make them longer and wider. Decide which eye shape you have to get the most perfect eye makeup.
• Almost everything depends on shading. Remember that careful shading is the key to a successful and attractive eye makeup. Next, you will see makeup schemes and photos and make sure that shading is an extremely important point in all makeup.
• Do you know what a primer is? It must be applied not only to the face, but also to the eyelids. This will protect your delicate skin and enhance the resistance of eye makeup. If you don’t have a special primer, try applying your regular foundation to your eyelid skin.

Makeup and eye color

Perform eye makeup based on your skin tone and eye color. For example, green eyes are ideally accentuated by red, violet, pink and copper colors, but almost all colors are suitable for brown eyes. Brown eyes will look especially good with blue and green shades: this will add depth and expressiveness to the look. But blue-eyed should choose brown, peach and gold colors.

What brushes to use for applying shadows?

There are a huge number of different makeup brushes, each of which is most effective in a particular task. Various tools are also available for applying shadows. Therefore, before starting to consider the various makeup schemes with shadows, we will deal with brushes:

• The first brush is the base brush for the shadows. As a rule, it has soft bristles and a rounded tip, ideal for applying shadows. At the same time, they should be distributed evenly and not irritate the delicate skin of your eyelids.
• But the brush for blending is a more fluffy brush with a rounded tip, with which you can shade and mix different colors among themselves.
• There is also an eyeliner brush. It is small and thin - just for applying any kind of eyeliner.
• A special brush for the crease of the eyelid is a small and dense brush with a small pointed tip, convenient for applying shadows to the crease of the eyelid.
• A beveled brush is ideal not only for eyebrow shaping, but also for applying shadows to the eyelash line.

Various shadow textures

You probably know that shadows, like any cosmetics, are different and have not only different shades, but also their texture. On this basis, shadows can be divided into several types:

• Cream shadows are most convenient for finger application and are great for all beginners. They can also be applied as a base for eyelids. They are great for creating a solid makeup.
• But friable shadows with a dry texture require more experience in applying. With their help, bright and evening images in makeup are created.
• Dry pressed shadows can be applied without any problems and blend well.

Eye makeup scheme and technique: natural make-up

Let's start with the simplest: natural makeup without makeup. There is no need to use tons of eyeliner, massive carcasses and shadows with flickering particles. In this makeup you use a minimum of means with which you can get the most natural look. Remember: no bright shadows, arrows and shadows with a shimmer! Prefer nude makeup with peach, brown, and light gray delicate shades.

1. First you need to tackle the skin tone: apply a foundation, hide unwanted skin defects, use a concealer to hide the dark bags under the eyes and apply a primer and a little of the same foundation on your eyelids. Do not neglect the base: it does not allow shadows to slide and increases the durability of the product.
2. Curl your eyelashes with a curler to give them a beautiful bend.
3. You can skip this step if you want, but with the help of shadows that are close to your skin tone, you can slightly darken the crease of the eyelid, as well as apply the lightest shade under the eyebrow and in the inner corner of the eye.
4. Use a black pencil or black shadow to fill the space between the cilia on the upper eyelid. This simple trick will visually make your eyelashes thicker.
5. Ink lightly paint the eyelashes and comb them with a special brush.

This makeup can be used as your everyday.

Classic makeup: scheme

Classic makeup was not called classic for nothing: it is universal and suits absolutely everyone. The technique of applying shadows is the same, but you can experiment with colors!

1. Apply the main color to the entire moving eyelid, the lightest shades are applied to the area under the eyebrow and to the inner corner of the eye.
2. The fold of the eyelid is distinguished by the darkest shadows. The same shade of shadows is applied along the contour of the growth of eyelashes.
3. For evening and most spectacular makeup, you can work out dark areas with a color even darker, for example, dark gray or even black.
4. In evening makeup, you can also barely distinguish the lower eyelid.
5. Carefully draw a line of eyelash growth: so they will be visually thicker.
6. Ink your eyelashes or even use false eyelashes, after curling your eyelashes with a curler.

This is an eye makeup scheme for beginners who need to get familiar with the classic way to apply eye shadow.

Smokey eyes

Let's look at another evening makeup scheme that you might like - Smokey Ice. Such a smoky make-up is considered one of the most popular among girls around the world. Smokey Ice is a haze effect on the eyes. The classic version uses black colors, but you can also experiment with color, seamlessly moving from a light shade to dark. Rely on the color of your eyes - so you can get the most attractive and winning look. The following makeup scheme is suitable not only for black: try to do everything using the same technique with a different color. For example, using peach or pink shades, you can get a wonderful daytime makeup.

Classic Smokey Ice - Black

1. Fully paint over, using black, the entire moving eyelid, the lower lash line and mucous membrane.
2. Then with a fluffy brush, carefully blend the borders, creating a haze effect.
3. Apply brown shadows to the border of the resulting lines to make a smoother transition. Do the same on the lower eyelid.
4. Under the eyebrows and on the inner corner of the eye, apply a highlighter or the lightest shadows in your palette.
5. Apply enough mascara to your eyelashes.

Makeup "Loop"

A universal makeup technique that looks no less impressive and suits absolutely everyone:

1. First prepare the skin of the eyelids, apply a primer and a little foundation on the moving eyelid.
2. On the upper eyelid, draw an arrow using brown or gray. Round it up, starting from the mid-century line.
3. Draw the surface behind the loop formed in the same color, as if painting over the outer corner.
4. Going down, draw an arrow that connects the upper eyelid with the lower.
5. Thoroughly blend all strokes.
6. Draw the inner surface of the eyelid with a white pencil.
7. You can draw an arrow on a moving eyelid.
8. Ink mascara.

Makeup "Bird"

The name of the makeup, of course, is unusual, but in fact, this technique is really common:

1. Prepare the skin of the eyelids, apply a tone, light shadows or highlighter on the inner corner of the eye and on the area under the eyebrow.
2. Arm yourself with a beveled brush, and with the help of its brown shadows, draw a line along the growth of eyelashes, starting from the middle of the eyelid, and then stretch it. You can choose the length of the arrow as you like.
3. The resulting tail will be a triangle-shaped arrow in the future. Starting at the tip, draw this line into the crease of the eyelid until about the middle. Blend everything thoroughly using a peach shade.
4. The upper line of eyelash growth needs to be made clear: for this, again draw it with the same brown shadows. Fill the empty space of the ponytail with the same color. Blend the borders to get a slight haze effect.
5. With a light pencil, paint over the mucous membrane of the eye to make the look wider and more expressive.
6. Ink mascara. You can twist them with a special tool.

A little bit about the arrows

Everyone has eyes of various shapes, which means that there is no such technique of drawing arrows that would suit absolutely everyone. Arrows are the perfect thing in makeup that will make the eye longer, larger, and the look wider and more expressive. To begin, we advise you to understand the shape of the eye and which arrows are right for you, because everything is individual!

• For girls with a classic shape of the eyes - almond-shaped - light arrows are suitable. Paint about one third of the lower eyelid with eyeliner or dark shadows. The resulting line needs to be extended closer to the crease of the eyelid. This line will become the direction of your arrow. Then draw a contour along the eyelashes, gradually thickening the arrow.
• If your corners of your eyes are down, then remember: the tail should be large enough and directed towards the temple. The lower mucosa should be stained with a black pencil, but this step is optional.
• To visually increase relatively small eyes, the tail of the arrow must be made elongated.
• Round eyes need to be visually narrowed. The mucous membrane of the eye should be emphasized with a dark pencil or black eyeliner. The eyelash growth line should be colored with a thin line, but the tail of the arrow should be horizontal, as if stretching your round eye.
• For girls with an impending eyelid, arrows should be made wide, filling the entire visible surface of the eyelid.
• But for girls with Asian appearance arrows should be in the "cat style". With an eyeliner or a dark pencil, draw a contour around the eye, and point the tails to the side of the temples.
