We do light eye makeup
Every girl or woman wants to shine the brightest of all, but not in all situations there is an opportunity to properly prove herself in makeup. Cosmetics are now used as a way to emphasize their most beautiful qualities in appearance and hide any flaws, nevertheless, it happens that everything turns out the other way around: abundant makeup only emphasizes the flaws, and this should not be so. For any event, the most correct solution is a light eye makeup.
Peculiarities
Light eye makeup is suitable for a wide variety of occasions as naturalness is a priority. There are several peculiarities of this type of makeup.
-
It is necessary to use only nude shades of shadows, that is, all shades of brown, white and black. Important: you should try to use black color in makeup as little as possible.
-
There should be no stark contrasts with the skin, all cosmetics should be well shaded.
What is necessary?
For light eye makeup, it is necessary to prepare such decorative cosmetics as:
-
concealer for eyes;
-
makeup base (primer);
-
mascara - there are many different colors of mascara, it is not necessary to be limited to the classic version;
-
eyeliner - white, black, brown and others;
-
certain shades of eyeshadow.
However, this is not a definitive list of what you can use with your makeup. For example, in some situations you can use a highlighter, bronzer and even lipstick.
With the correct use of the above cosmetics, you can easily get the most beautiful eye makeup you can think of.
Creation technology
With any make-up, it is necessary to prepare the skin for applying cosmetics, so that the skin does not harm in any way, and the cosmetics lay down evenly and for a long time. To do this, you need to apply a makeup base, that is, a primer, so that the cosmetics hold better. The following step-by-step sequence provides a simple option ideal for beginners.
Shadows
It is best to start by painting over the lower eyelid with shadows, it will be much more convenient to see the border for further makeup. It is necessary to draw a line, that is, the continuation of the lower eyelid to the outer corner of the eye.
So that the line does not turn out to be bold, the best option would be to use a pencil for this first, and then a brush in the shape of a spatula.
If you don't have one, any other flat-tipped brush will work as well.
What is left on the brush, that is, the remains of the pencil, apply to the fixed part of the eyelid. Thus, the eye will visually be larger.
Now you can apply shadows of absolutely any color to the moving part of the eyelid. If you feel like it, you can add a little sparkle.
Eyeliner
Since we are talking about light, daytime makeup, you can also draw an arrow using eyeliner.
Many are faced with such a problem as a drooping eyelid, but this is not a sentence at all. There are several options for how to draw an arrow on such an eyelid so that it does not "wrinkle", but looks smooth and sophisticated.
To begin with, it is worth mentioning how to make an arrow on a regular eyelid. This is a fairly quick option and is suitable for both beginners and professionals.
A small line should be drawn from the outer corner of the eye. Up or straight - here it already depends on taste preferences and the shape of the eye.
Mark a point on the movable eyelid and then connect the end of the line from the marked point. Thus, an arrow is formed.
Carefully paint over the empty space so that the arrow is solid.
Important: the tip of the arrow must be sharp.
If all of the above conditions are met, then the perfect arrow is guaranteed.
The next option is the arrow for the impending century. Naturally, all actions are described in stages.
Usually the arrow should be drawn from the edge of the eye, which goes up, but since the eyelid is overhanging, it turns out some kind of strange "hook".
You need to draw the same line in parallel to the side of the temple. That is, draw the same line, but slightly lower, in parallel.
It turns out that the arrow is a little torn off, so then draw a continuation of the upper eyelid, that is, connect these two lines at the base.
The top line needs to be erased.
Further, from the middle of the upper eyelid along the ciliary row, draw a thin line that extends from the center of the eye.
You need to go around the fold a little, but in no case with curved lines.
The bottom line of the arrow should be straight, the arrow goes even lower than the eye.
Align, wipe the arrow from below to make it more logical, thinner and more beautiful.
There are many variations on drawing arrows on the eyes, but not every method is effective. This step-by-step guide is ideal for those with an impending century.
Mascara
Paint over the eyelashes on the upper eyelid with mascara. At the bottom - it is better to abstain. If you overdo it with mascara on the lower eyelid, then the face can look like a "baby doll". However, if you still really want to tint, then in this case it is better to paint over not the whole eyelash row, but part of the outer corner of the eye.

Moving away from the classics, you can find many different variations of light eye makeup.
