How to visually reduce the nose? You will be surprised to know how many ways there are to correct the flaws of this part of the face without surgery. Here's what you have in your arsenal: hairstyle, eyebrows, eye makeup, full face modeling and nose modeling. Even the color of the hair can affect the impression of the nose. And only when all this has undergone careful processing, you can see your nose as it really is. Perhaps he was never big, but simply seemed so.
How to visually reduce the nose, picking him the "right" environment
Very important is hairstyle, eyebrow design, face makeup in general. By working with them, you can distract attention from the imperfections of the nose, essentially not doing anything with it. After all, when we say that the nose is too big, we mean that it is large compared to something. And if the eyes, lips or face become larger, then the nose will visually decrease.
Eyebrows
In no case should they be plucked into a thin thread, while it is necessary to achieve symmetry and a pleasant "flying" shape with a well-defined bend. Check out the photos of Marlene Dietrich. Her nose, despite her beautiful shape, is not so small. But at the same time, the beautifully defined curved eyebrows compensate for the size of the nose and the truly German stiffness of the features. In most photographs, she seems to be perfect, and her nose is elegant and small.
Cheeks and chin
How to visually reduce the nose, emphasizing the line of the cheeks? And is it possible? The famous Russian model, the favorite of Vogue, Anya Selezneva, has a large and short nose, but still with an excessively wide round tip. However, when we look at her photographs, we hardly notice this, rather, we notice to ourselves that the face has its own zest and character. Why? The fact is that a broad nose harmonizes perfectly with very expressive, always well-emphasized cheekbones.
Pay particular attention to modeling the lower and lateral parts of the face. Beautiful cheekbones and chin with clear and smooth lines always look sensual and stylish.
Modeling the face as a whole
How to visually reduce the nose? The photo below demonstrates how much the impression of the nose can change due to makeup. For face modeling , highlighters, foundation, special powders, and shadows are used. The size and shape of the light and dark areas will be different for each woman. The basic rule sounds simple: light tone increases, dark tone decreases. For example, the nose is very long, but narrow, graceful, it looks almost perfect in front, and its length is noticeable only in profile. In this case, there is no need to darken the side of the nose. It is necessary to lighten the bridge of the nose, then it will seem a little closer, and the lower part (but not the tip) darken. Sometimes it’s not at all about the nose, but about other features of the face, for example, the distance from the upper lip to the nose is very short, and the nose seems long. In this case, the area above the lip must also be adjusted. Particular attention should be paid to eye makeup. The photograph below clearly shows how much it affects the overall impression - thanks to actively applied shadows around the eyes, the large nose has become almost invisible.
Hair
Well-groomed hair and a feminine hairstyle also attract attention. If you need to visually reduce the nose, then the hair pulled back to the back of the head is contraindicated. Avoid smooth hairstyles. The face should be framed by soft curls or waves, and the volume at the roots is desirable, which can be achieved using combing and special styling. The best hair length is medium, but it all depends on the overall appearance. Miniature women do not always have very magnificent hair, and too high forehead is contraindicated in high comb.
Bang
The basic rule is this: the more open the face, the less noticeable the nose. And the bangs can compensate for the big nose, and can also emphasize its size. That is why there are so many mistakes with her. It should be remembered: bangs are selected not only under the nose! You need to look at facial features in general. For example, if you have an elongated oval face, a heavy, but expressive chin, clear full lips, in this case a thick long bang will balance the overall impression and compensate for the narrowness of the face. In addition, the bangs can be different: asymmetric, overestimated, shortened, thinned out. Any flat lying thick bangs with an even and low-lying edge can only aggravate the flaw, but all other options can be safely considered, the strands air-framing the face are especially good, creating a sense of space and volume around the face. It is these hairstyles that Barbra Streisand wears.
How to visually reduce the nose thanks to daily care?
Unfortunately, it is not always convenient to apply modeling with tonal means. As a rule, it is used for special occasions, for example, for photographing, but even ordinary powder and constant care can reduce the nose. How often there is oily shiny skin on the nose, and even with black dots! But the shine on this protruding part of the face can visually make it even bigger. Therefore, matting wipes and powder are simply a must. Ideally, the skin on the nose should be completely clean, smooth, matte and without redness - all this will make the nose more accurate.
How to reduce the tip of the nose?
The tip of the nose can be made a little more upturned and neat with the help of special exercises. Surely you can arbitrarily inflate your nostrils, which clearly proves that there are muscles here, and you can work with them. One of the main exercises to reduce the nose: holding the tip of the nose with your finger, try to lower the upper lip.
While doing makeup, in a darker tone, draw short lines on the tip so that they are as if an extension of the side lines of the nose. Then emphasize in a lighter tone the back of the nose, without continuing the line at the tip. Achieve smooth borders between the funds. In order to learn how to correctly adjust the nose, first take a darker tone and clearly draw all the lines and spots, move away from the mirror as far as possible and evaluate the result from afar, and only then proceed to the final version with shading.
In any case, it should be remembered that only you yourself know about your shortcomings. And whether they will be considered flaws or highlights of appearance - it depends only on you. Even a large nose can be considered beautiful, purebred and noble. Ancient Greek beauties had a very expressive profile. In addition, it is likely that the nose just seems large due to incorrectly placed accents in appearance.
