The shape, thickness and type of arrows for the corners are always selected by specialists in the salon strictly individually.

This color type of tattoo differs from the rest by the color of the tone applied to the eyelids. The original rainbow, bright colors or classic colors (black, brown, ash) look interesting. For the implementation of the makeup in question, it is undesirable to choose shades of pink or blue, since they will quickly lose their former saturation, they will look like bruises.

A type of makeup with the effect of shadows on the eyelids. Gives different results. Most often, women want to decorate their eyes with an arrow, shaded to a large width with a fine brush.

The choice of technique should be based on the features of the structure of the eyes.

• If in the distance between the eyes, you can visually place another, then the eyelash type or the classic arrows are ideal.
• With close-set eyes, it is better not to draw the inner corners. You can use the arrow on the outside of the eyelid, but it shouldn't be too dark or dense.
• If there is an overhanging eyelid and lowered corners, then a tattoo in the form of a neat thin arrow is suitable... She might not be too flashy. In this case, at the outer corner, this part can be slightly bent and raised.
• For ladies with bulging eyes, it is better to paint over the line along the ciliary edge... A thin arrow complemented by shading will do.

We will learn how to properly prepare for applying a long-lasting make-up.

• Do not take aspirin because it thinns the blood and can cause bruising.
• Within 2-3 days before the procedure, it is advisable to take antiviral drugs so as not to provoke herpes.
• It is worth taking an anti-allergen such as Suprastin or Loratadin per day. So allergies will be prevented, minor swelling will remain.

We will find out exactly how the procedure for applying beautiful makeup is carried out.

• First, the master needs to draw the arrows with a special marker / pencil. It turns out a kind of sketch. If both the master and the client are satisfied with everything, you can proceed to the next step.
• The skin on the eyelids is treated with an anesthetic gel / cream.
• After the surfaces are numb, the master, using a sterile needle, proceeds to carefully pierce the skin and add pigment, moving along the sketch lines.
• At the end of the procedure, the skin needs treatment with healing compounds / ointments.

It is important to provide care for the area that was treated during the procedure.

• In the early days, the skin will turn red and be swollen. At this time, the eyes can be gently rinsed with cool clean water or brewed green tea.
• Further, crusts will appear on the skin. At this time, it is better not to wet it with water. You cannot peel off the crusts. Dried skin should come off on its own.
• Inflamed areas 2-3 times a day should be treated and smeared with special gels with panthenol.
• It usually takes 2 to 3 weeks for complete healing. At this time, you can not paint, build eyelashes, use lotions, foams, wash with other cosmetics.

A well-applied permanent make-up can last for 5-10 years. After the specified time, all lines fade and fade, acquire a shade with green or blue. However, even after that, the makeup will not disappear at 100%: its contours will remain forever.

We will find out what consequences the application of the considered type of make-up leads to.

• In the first days after the procedure, significant swelling forms around the eyes. Often women talk about a burning sensation. Crusts appear on the regenerating skin.
• Tattooing can lead to infection of the tissues around the eye. The conjunctiva may be damaged. Sometimes after this, barley appears, the tissues fester, and a rash appears.
• If the master worked poorly, the arrows may have uneven edges. Lines on the skin can also be crooked.
• If the vessels are too close to the upper layers of the skin, they can be easily damaged.
• Often, girls are stopped not at all by temporary edema and swelling, but by the fact that after the introduction of a pigment element, profuse eyelash loss begins. True, this phenomenon is temporary. Hair will begin to grow back within 3-4 weeks.

Full recovery occurs in 2-4 weeks. During this period, redness and swelling go away, the applied pattern is aligned. After 1-1.5 months, the master is engaged in correction, while eliminating all minor flaws, leveling the drawing.

Reapplication of the pigment is recommended only after 2-4 years... During this period, the tattoo will become a little faded, it may change its color (sometimes the drawing turns blue). However, the laser will only be able to destroy the dark type pigment.

Removal of the pigment substance is done in several ways:

• by means of aggressive chemicals;
• clarification with special solutions;
• electric current (electrocoagulation);
• laser removal.

Not all methods are completely safe, especially when it comes to using powerful chemicals. This can cause burns. Such operations should only be performed by a first-class specialist.

A thin line between the eyelashes looks very nice, leaving in a neat and not too raised arrow. In this case, a slight expansion of the strip can take place closer to the outer corner.

A good option is a very thin line between the eyelashes with discreet shading. In this case, the line can turn into a short and thin arrow. The inner corner may not be affected at all.
