Makeup in the style of a Barbie doll

Barbie doll is a toy for girls from about 3 to 10 years old, the embodiment of a child's dream of "living" beauty, grace, a real toy-girl. A super-woman with a varied wardrobe, she has huge eyes, a beautiful face and bright makeup. The external effect is stunning, and almost every girl dreams of being the same, which is the reason for the emergence of a separate direction in make up.

It is difficult to find today a woman who, as a child, did not play with a Barbie doll and did not dream of being as beautiful as a long-legged, slender woman with blond hair and huge eyes. Everyone drew oriental arrows, circled their eyes to make them large and the look mysterious. Thanks to this, a separate direction in the style of a Barbie doll appeared in make up, with its own rules and laws.

Long gone are the days when girls and women went outside without preliminary cosmetic procedures with a face. The presence of make-up is required today, an unkempt face is considered a sign of bad taste. Conversely, it is generally accepted that a girl wearing Barbie makeup has:

• good upbringing;
• refined taste;
• perfect sense of proportion.

The statement, of course, is controversial - nothing prevents a badly brought up girl from mastering a brush perfectly, being an artist and a make-up artist, but a sense of proportion is required. Otherwise, excessively bright, provocative makeup will “cut your eyes” and create a carnival impression. A doll make up is no less demanding on well-groomed skin - it should be velvety, matte and radiant at the same time, reminiscent of precious porcelain.

When working with a face in the summer, you must remember - makeup should not "float"... Preference should be given to mineral cosmetics, especially powder. It is she who is able to provide gentle, gentle care, mattifying the skin and allowing it to breathe. Die-hard fans of the barbie style should temper their ardor: dense and opaque textures are good for visiting nightclubs, with their artificial flickering lighting and powerful air conditioning.

For a summer day, a natural make-up is more suitable, because the sun is not only our helper. Among other things, she is a great provocateur, capable of treacherously highlighting and showing the layers of powder and foundation under them, emphasizing the superimposed blush, paying attention to the pieces of mascara if the eyelashes are overly painted.

In addition, overuse of cosmetics during hot periods can lead to acne - nothing could be worse for Barbiegirl. Such girls are obliged to know and carefully select the necessary composition. Cosmetics, whose effects combine care and decorative properties, are the best choice for creating beauty that is safe for the skin.

To become like a style icon, you need to adopt several important techniques in make up and not only:

• well structured person;
• adherence to consistency, correct application of cosmetics.

No less important is the thoughtful work on the image as a whole, which should correspond not only to the face, but also to the bow, manners: Barbie with a cigarette in her mouth, cursing, what could be more disgusting ...

The initial stage, which has long become a classic, is skin cleansing. Bad, insufficiently clean skin a priori cannot be the basis of perfect make-up. It will ruin the whole effect, but masking insufficient care with “kilograms” of powder and foundation is considered bad form.

• Cleansing... If there is a holiday ahead, and it is imperative to be fully armed, it is worthwhile to allocate as much time as possible for spa treatments. To get rid of blackheads, you need to make a steam bath with a fruit and herbal decoction. For oily skin, use lime pieces and mint leaves, but dry skin prefers to deal with rosemary sprigs and orange slices, and the zest cannot be removed. All this is immersed in boiling water and boiled a little. After that, a classic inhalation is done - the container is removed from the fire, set on the table and, covering with your head, inhale pleasant vapors for a quarter of an hour. During this time, the pores will open, the skin will become soft, all that remains is to remove unpleasant defects. The finish line will be amazing.

• Spout... The charmingly snub nose is a classic. But this is not available for many girls, but this is not a reason to believe that the barbie style is not available to them. Correction with a shimmery primer or light highlighter will come to the rescue, as well as a darker tone of powder or bronzer. Contouring should be done: the area to the left and right of the bridge of the nose is covered with a darker tone.

• Cheekbones... Barbie cheeks are accented with light pink blush. This gives the appearance a freshness and youthfulness. Preference should be given to creamy or gel textures, which will allow for more perfect shading and a natural look. You can do the same with a silk powder blush. In addition, you should use a highlighter with a lighter undertone, which will give relief to the cheekbones, emphasize their expressiveness. To do this, apply a little light tone with a wide brush to the protruding part of the bone, accentuating it with a light glare. Mineral products are best used as they apply easily and evenly to the surface of the skin for a natural, not carnival, effect.

• Lips... In this case, careful drawing, the use of a contour, matte dense bright shades are not required. Barbie is a young girl, and her image is freshness, tenderness, airiness. Vamp lipstick does not fit this style in any way. The best option is a transparent or translucent shine with mother-of-pearl. The gloss is applied to the middle of the lips, then stretched towards the corners. After the lips are shaped, it remains to apply the final touch - the center of the lips is accentuated with a smear of pearlescent shine.

• Eyes... The most difficult and artistic part, you need to approach it as responsibly as possible. The accent in the "doll" make-up is done not only on the eyelid, but also on the length of the eyelashes, achieving a wide-open look. When choosing mascara, one should give preference to the volumetric type with an increase in length - the eyelashes should be long, curled upward, reminiscent of a butterfly's wing. Light shimmery shadows are applied to the upper eyelid as a base, then an orbital fold is isolated, which visually enlarges the eyes.

A lilac or pink tone is applied with arcuate movements. The lash line is emphasized with a white pencil, which will "open up" the look even more. The line is drawn as close to the mucous membrane as possible, since the main contour will be contrasting. The arrow is performed with a glossy and luscious palette, filling the space between the cilia, connecting it into a voluminous arrow line.

• Brows... To create an ideal contour, the eyebrows are thinned, having previously well massaged the place of the future procedure. Having achieved a slight redness, the master at the same time receives a small anesthetic effect - it will be less painful to pull out the hairs. If the eyebrows are good on their own, don't physically tweak them. The brow pencil should be slightly darker than the eyebrow shadow.

As you can see, make up for a girl at home is not so difficult an event as not to be able to master it.... A few workouts at home in front of a mirror will give confidence to your hands, and the experience will come soon.

The presented make up is dominated by lilac and pink shadows, a silver highlighter and pink lip gloss are used. The cheekbones are skillfully accentuated, the nose is clearly contoured, but everything looks as natural as possible, as if the facial features are like that by nature.

A striking example is Lauren Gray's makeup - plump lips, huge eyes, clearly contoured eyebrows and a structured face, long eyelashes reminiscent of a butterfly wing and blond curls - the perfect make up of a barbie style.

Another perfect job. Ash curls frame the oval of the face with gorgeous, well-groomed skin reminiscent of Dresden porcelain. Perfectly traced eyebrows, shaped cheekbones, chiseled nose and wide-open eyes - the exact image of a Barbie doll. Metallic shadows accentuate the glow of the eyes.
