Makeup for a brunette with blue eyes
Day makeup of a blue-eyed brunette
Applying makeup for blue-eyed brunettes begins with leveling the tone. Choose a foundation based on your natural complexion and skin type. If you have inflammation, age spots, or spider veins, cover them up with concealer.
Dark-skinned brunettes can emphasize eyebrows with black color. For fair-skinned girls with dark hair and blue eyes, it is better to choose brown tones for daytime eyebrow makeup. Apply white shadows on the movable eyelid, and from the crease of the eyelid to the eyebrow – light shadows with a satin or pearlescent sheen. Above the outer corner of the eye, apply a coffee, golden brown or gray color and blend it over the crease of the eyelid.
It is not recommended to emphasize blue eyes with blue shades. They can distort the natural color of the iris, making it dull and watery.
For daytime makeup, brunettes can use eyeliner and mascara of any dark color. Draw a thin and neat line with liquid or helium liner on the upper eyelid and line the lower eyelid with the pencil along the growth of the eyelashes.
Saturated colors of blush and lipstick are suitable for brunettes. However, in daytime makeup, it is better to avoid overly bright colors, so it is recommended to choose a neutral pink blush and lipstick in a wine, cherry or dark coral shade.
Evening makeup for a brunette with blue eyes
In evening makeup, blue-eyed brunettes can use almost all colors. Feel free to experiment with shimmery eyeshadows, powders, blush and lip gloss. However, it is important to be careful when using glitter cosmetics to avoid looking like a Christmas tree.
For complex makeup, apply over a base coat. There are bases for foundation, eyeshadow, mascara and lipstick
Smoky makeup, also known as “smoky ice”, looks especially impressive with blue eyes and dark hair. Apply a few similar shades to your lids, such as dark green, emerald, and pistachio. The darkest color should be above the outer corner of the eye. On the moving eyelid, apply a shade of medium intensity, and the lightest one – under the eyebrow. Blend the shadows well to create a hazy effect.
In evening makeup, brunettes can afford the brightest shades of blush and lipstick: scarlet, crimson, crimson and fuchsia. It must be remembered that in a harmonious make-up, blush and lipstick should be shades of the same color.
