The most common difficulty that appears in many girls is the incorrect selection of arrows according to the type of eyes. In addition, some simply do not understand when it is necessary to draw thin, and when thick. Today we will try to destroy all the myths about classical shooters. In addition, we learn how to draw them, consider all the secrets and tips. So let's get started.
How can you draw perfect arrows?
Before disassembling the technique of the correct arrows, you need to find out what cosmetic products you can draw them:
- The shadows. A tool for those who are not yet confident in their arrows and often make mistakes. Shadows can always be washed off quickly and try to draw a line again. It is worth remembering that it is better to choose thin beveled brushes.
- Gel eyeliners. A cosmetic product that most make-up artists use. Firstly, it is quite economically consumed. Secondly, the line is bright, saturated. Thirdly, gel eyeliners are incredibly resistant and plastic.
- Eyeliner felt-tip pen. A good option for daily use. They can quickly draw beautiful, bright arrows that will hold well. Unfortunately, such products quickly run out or dry out.
Tips to help you draw the right and perfect arrows
Best arrow drawing tips:
- If you are not confident in your abilities, but you want to have bright and graphic arrows, then first draw a line with shadows, and then circle the result with eyeliner. The first product is easier to rinse, so you can always quickly fix a mistake.
- Do not draw arrows too thick right away. It is better to start with small ones and gradually add thickness to them. So you can immediately see when you need to stop.
- Do makeup in front of a large mirror. Usually, when you color your eyebrows or eyes in front of a small mirror, you do not get the result you want. If you immediately look at the big one, the picture will be fully visible.
- Remember that there must always be support. If the hand constantly hangs, then the arrow will turn out uneven.
What are the shapes of the eyes?
Any make-up artist will say with confidence that arrows need to be drawn based on the shape of the eyes. So you can hide the flaws, emphasize the advantages and get an excellent result:
- Almond shaped. Such eyes are usually small in size, slightly squinted. Arrows of medium thickness with a short, high raised tip will suit girls with such eyes.
- Round eyes. The main problem of this type is volume. When drawing arrows, you must try to slightly extend the eye. Therefore, you need to make a smooth increase in the thickness of the line from the inner corner to the outer. It is worth remembering that the tip should be long enough.
- Asian eyes. For girls with this shape of eyes, thick arrows with a small tip will do. They will help visually expand and slightly reduce the length of the eye.
- Eyes with lowered corners. The main task here is to raise the outer part. To do this, make a fairly long, high raised tip.
Technique of drawing perfect arrows
So now let's find out how to draw classic arrows:
- The correct position. You need to move as close as possible to a larger mirror. Now you need to make sure that the arm has support.
- Find the tip and the highest point of the arrow. We bring the pencil to the corner of the nose, mentally draw a line through the pupil and put an invisible point. There will be an inflection arrow. Now put the pencil to the corner of the nose, draw a line visually through the outer corner, mark the point of the end of the arrow.
- Now connect all the points. If you can’t immediately draw a straight line, then you can make it in several stages, and then smooth out irregularities.
- In the end, you need to draw a corner, which is a continuation of the cilia. After that, you need to connect the highest point with the base and fill in the empty triangle.
Perfect shooter technique for an evening event
If you want to make beautiful makeup with classic arrows for an evening event, then you need to use slightly different rules:
- Create the perfect face tone. Clear, vivid arrows require perfect skin. Any imperfections will become more noticeable.
- Underlined fold of the eyelid. In evening makeup, it is necessary to highlight the eyes more strongly. To do this, you need to take medium brown shadows and a fluffy brush, which must be applied to the orbital fold.
- Arrow. It should be saturated black. If you want to add a touch of unusualness, you can use pigment to match the color of the dress. Yes, do not forget that the line should be thicker and the tip longer.
- Underlined lower eyelid. This will help frame the rest of the eyes. To do this, you can use the same shadows that stood out the fold. The main thing is to add a shade a little darker near the ciliary contour and smoothly blend. In addition, you can stain the lower mucosa with a white pencil, so the makeup will look fresher.
Classic Feather Shooter Technique
So, let's learn how to draw classic arrows on the eyes with a feathery effect:
- We take a bold pencil of saturated brown or black color. They can create a clean and beautiful transition.
- Use it to draw an arrow. You can not make it even.
- Now with the help of a tightly packed brush, which is called the "barrel", blend the pencil up. To make things go faster, you can use the shadows. True, it is worth remembering that if you want black arrows, then you can not use gray shadows. It’s easier to make dirt with them.
- Once you succeed in creating a neat transition, you can apply some bright color on top, for example, red or green.
- In the end, do not forget to repeat the same actions on the lower eyelid. It is worth remembering that as soon as the arrows are ready, you need to trim the tip with a dense flat brush and foundation. This will result in a cleaner and more professional result.
