How to draw arrows? This question is constantly tormenting both young fashionistas, who are just starting their acquaintance with cosmetics, and women with a rich makeup experience. Arrows are a great attribute of makeup, but it’s quite difficult to draw them, and they are far from universal. Therefore, before you draw arrows and “go out into the light,” you should practice several times at home in front of the mirror in order to “fill your hand” and bring the movements to automatism and a perfect result.
So, we take into account the fact that the arrows look a little heavy in the overall image, so young girls should not draw them so as not to look vulgar. If the desire to resemble the fatal seductresses of the sixties of the last century still prevails, then the arrows should be made as thin as possible so that they are almost invisible. It is worth noting that makeup with arrows can be done in the late afternoon if you need to go to a party or another holiday, but during working hours, eyes should be made up more easily.
The second point, which also cannot be neglected, is that the arrows visually reduce the eyes. If the eyes are small, then the line of the arrows should be thin, and if large, then it is worth experimenting with thicker lines. In addition, there is such an option as colored arrows of light tones (in gold or silver), which against the background of densely tinted eyelashes create beautiful images of a deep look. In any case, which option would not be chosen, the arrows in the eyes should look as natural as possible. It depends on the thickness of the arrow, and on the material of its application, and on additional shading agents used by women when making up.
If the problem of how to draw arrows is resolved and the skill is developed, then it's time to move on to the question: how to draw arrows? The modern beauty industry offers a choice of such means:
- ordinary eyeshadows - with the help of shadows you can get a blurry smoky effect that will give the eyes languor and mystery. In this case, you should buy a palette of high-quality shades of various shades and several brushes with sharp tips - each shade has its own brush.
- an eyeliner will perfectly make arrows that will look much brighter and richer than arrows with shadows. At the same time, fine arrows for eyes of any shape are obtained with a pencil, because there is always the possibility of correction with a cotton swab, but incorrectly applied arrows with shadows require washing much more in area. It is better to take hard pencils that will not be smeared - they are also easier to erase. When using a pencil, it is important to consider - beautiful arrows in the eyes are the result of painstaking work, so even with the first mistakes you should not be upset. Not the gods burned pots, but what can not a woman learn to do? Draw arrows? Well, no, we are born with the ability to be beautiful - the main thing in this matter is patience and desire for success.
- eyeliners (liquid, gel) - this is the peak of make-up skill! Using eyeliners, the color of the arrows turns out to be more intense, however, it is difficult to draw them in this case - due to the strong contrast with the fair skin of the eyelids, any blemishes are visible. All this is again easily eliminated with cotton swabs.
So, the tool is selected, now we go directly to the process - how to draw arrows. To get a picture that will be after application, you need to make arrows on the open eyelid. If you keep the eyelid lowered, you get the exact opposite effect - the arrows will be ugly and crooked. If possible, you need to lean your hand on something in order to avoid unnecessary movements. With any blemish, it must be washed immediately, before the eyeliner is dry, otherwise the makeup will be sloppy.
After the arrows are drawn, they must be compared and “adjusted” to a single standard. Gradually, this standard will be developed on an automatic level and there will be no problems with application. At the very end of this mystery, mascara is applied to the eyelashes.
