Nowadays, there are a wide variety of types of makeup. While some are trendy, others are fading into the background. But beautiful shooters are unlikely to ever lose their relevance. Even the inhabitants of ancient Egypt used them to gain a more expressive look. Well, the greatest peak of popularity came in the 50-60s of the last century, when they really began to become fashionable.
Beautiful arrows can be drawn with a soft pencil, liquid or helium eyeliner, an automatic pencil-felt-tip pen and even ordinary shadows. Each tool is good in its own way, but still the easiest way to work with a pencil. Liquid eyeliner during application requires some skill, as one inaccurate smear will damage the makeup. The plus of the helium liner is that during its dilution, you can achieve the consistency you need, thereby obtaining completely different saturation of the arrows. An automatic pencil-marker allows you to draw clear lines due to a certain supply of coloring matter. Well, the shadows provide you with a field for creativity. A rich palette of colors will allow you to create arrows of various colors depending on the mood and type of makeup.
How to draw beautiful arrows on your eyes
Let's look at the main points of this process. If you are just starting out with arrows as an element of makeup, use a regular soft pencil to fill your hand. Start the arrow from the inner corner of the eye and end at the outer. The line should be as close as possible to the eyelashes. First try to draw dots or short strokes in order to outline the passage of the line, and then connect them together.
Beautiful arrows with eyeliner are done in the same way as with a pencil. The hand should be put on the table for the first time so that it does not shake, and the line is smooth. Before using a helium liner, it should be diluted with water, and then draw an arrow with a brush.
The remaining tools for creating arrows are applied in the same way. The most important thing is to ensure that the line is as even as possible, has a thickness that will suit your eyes. And the thickness, as, in fact, the length, is the most diverse. The main thing is not to overdo it.
Beautiful arrows: some useful tips
- If the arrow is drawn with liquid eyeliner, before applying it to the eyelid, you can apply dry powder, which will allow the product to lie more evenly.
- The lower eyelid is best drawn with a soft pencil, without resorting to eyeliner.
- If you can’t make a straight line, remove the excess with the help of makeup remover and a cotton swab.
- When drawing an arrow, try to pull the eyelid a little. In this case, the process can be substantially facilitated.
Beautiful arrows are a whole art, but not as inaccessible as it might seem at first glance. Train at home, try different lengths and thicknesses, and you can definitely pick up an arrow that will fit perfectly with the cut of your eyes.
