Each girl’s makeup bag should have a specific makeup list for both every day and for a special occasion. Without a doubt, without shadows in the makeup - nowhere, with their help you can not only create a unique image, but also adjust the shape and shape of the eyes. Today, a lot of types of shadows have appeared - liquid, baked, pearlescent, glaze, mousse shadows, friable, matte shadows, and this is far from all. Let us dwell in more detail on matte shadows.
First, we briefly describe what shadows exist, and how matte shadows differ from all other types. So, eyeshadows are liquid, compact, gel and loose. Compact are divided into pearlescent and matte shadows, as well as baked. Compact are called compressed shadows with a lot of pigment. They are usually sold with a sponge or brush made of artificial pile.
Baked shadows got their name because during the manufacturing process the components are poured with water and then evaporated. They can be applied with either a dry brush or a wet method, then the color will become brighter. Pearlescent shadows contain a lot of glitter, or shine, so they are ideal for evening makeup and creating bright holiday images. Matte shadows are also used to create unique images and for podium make-up, but they, apart from brilliant ones, are ideal for day and office makeup. Moreover, use
shadow with glitter during the day is considered a sign of bad taste.
Liquid shadows are sold with an applicator, so they are harder to apply and they do not shade, although they successfully replace eyeliner. Because of their texture, gel shadows require high make-up artist skill, and it is better to apply them with a thin brush. Loose shadows can also not be obeyed by beginners, since they need to be applied very carefully.
To create a vivid image, a lot of things are now on sale: eye shadow palettes, lipstick palettes and other cosmetics, in which the colors are chosen so that with their help you can create beautiful professional makeup for different occasions.
How to make matte shadows last longer?

In the office, natural, inconspicuous makeup is preferable. In order to keep the shadows longer, you need to learn some secrets.
First, any shadows will fall on a fat-free surface, so you need to powder your eyelids, especially if you have oily skin.
Second - use a base, this will make the color brighter, and the shadows will last longer.

Fourth - do not use cheap cosmetics. Let it be better for you to have 3 shades of high-quality cosmetics, which will last longer and have less harm to the skin than a full cosmetic bag of shadows that crumble in 5 minutes after application.
