Neat and sophisticated eye makeup will make the look expressive and attractive. In the make-up, the arrows play an important role in the eyes , they give a special charm and mystery to the image. But not everyone can draw beautiful, smooth, symmetrical lines.
There are no women who don’t have arrows, but there are those who don’t know how to draw arrows correctly, so that they match the shape and size of the eyes and do not make the eyes look caricatured or even vulgar.
The arrows are wide, thin, long, directed towards the temples, and even a lot of different options. Eyes are divided into several main types:
• Almond-shaped. Typically, eyes of this shape are located at a standard distance relative to the bridge of the nose. Such eyes will go arrows of any thickness and length. Owners of such eyes can safely experiment with any thickness and length of lines. Knowing the basics and rules of how to make up arrows, you can create a unique image every time.
• The shape of the round eyes can be easily corrected by drawing a line from the base of the eye to the outer corner, slightly raising and thickening it from the middle. The end of such an arrow must be sharpened.
• The narrow shape is easy to visually expand, for this the line of the arrow should pass clearly along the growth of the eyelashes of the upper eyelid, its end should smoothly go up and not go beyond the outer corner of the eye.
• Eyes set at a great distance can easily be adjusted using arrows, the main thing is to learn a simple rule on how to draw arrows with eyeliner. To correct the shape of the wide-set eyes at the base, the arrow should be wide and taper to the outer edge.
Many girls, doing makeup with arrows, are defeated and abandon this venture. But they just don’t know the rules on how to draw arrows with eyeliner or pencil:
• The arrow must be drawn with a firm, non- trembling hand, resting on a hard surface.
• The eye on which the arrow is drawn should be slightly covered.
• There is no need to immediately make a thick line, first a thin line is laid along the growth of the eyelashes, and then thickens with strokes.
• For an even line, the arrow must be drawn in two steps: from the base of the eye to the middle and from the middle to the edge.
• In no case should the space between the eyelashes and the drawn line be left unpainted, it is ugly and untidy.
About tools and products
The arrows are drawn last, after all the stages of applying makeup, and therefore it is very important to choose the right product and follow the rules on how to draw arrows with eyeliner, pencil, eye shadow or a special marker.
All products have their drawbacks. So, for example, a comfortable brush does not always come across in the liner, and this will not play into the hands of a fashionista who does not know how to draw arrows with liquid eyeliner.
An eyeliner pencil will be a good option, but will not be able to hold out all day, but to use the waterproof type, you need to have at least a little practice.
The felt-tip pen draws thick lines, and it is not recommended to start a “friendship” with arrows from this product.
Shadows are ideal, because in case of failure they can always be shaded, avoiding washing and damage to all makeup due to one incorrect hand movement.
