To make the look for a date on the most romantic day of the year bright and dazzling in the literal sense of the word, we suggest using the tips that make-up artist Elena Kapitonova shared with the readers of Wday.ru.
Decorating a face, and even more so eyelashes, is a laborious and responsible process. But if going to a professional lashmaker is not included in your immediate plans, and you want to look 100% on the most romantic evening, you should have patience and tools that will make your makeup truly irresistible – glitter, rhinestones, feathers, sparkles, beads. By the way, rhinestones and stones are the trend of the season, which, as usual, smoothly passed from fashion shows into our reality, especially festive. You can glue the decor at home using base for makeup for sequins or false eyelash glue.
Glitter: subtle shine
It can be free-flowing, dry, or in palettes like eyeshadow. Glitter can be:
apply along the upper lashes;
make shiny arrows along the lower eyelid;
use under the eyebrows, repeating their shape;
cover the entire movable eyelid with sparkles;
simulate freckles.
How to apply: so that small particles do not get into the eyes, it is better to pick up glitter with a silicone applicator, and apply to a base, which can be used as a primer or cream eyeshadow.
Useful life hack: if at the time of application, a cotton pad or napkin is placed under the lower eyelashes, the glitter will not crumble on the face. They are fixed with a special spray.
Rhinestones: beauty trend
Rhinestones are what instantly turn everyday makeup into a festive one. They come in a variety of colors, sizes and shapes, such as in the form of hearts (which is especially suitable for February 14th) or geometric shapes. It is better to give preference to small ones that look more natural. To create a vivid image, you can:
glue on both eyelids;
apply around the eyes;
leave only in the corners – from the outside or inside;
stick over the eyebrows;
attach rhinestones of different sizes in the form of an arrow, and place the smallest ones on the tips of the eyelashes;
decorate the temporal zone and / or cheekbones, and the smaller ones are better placed between the larger ones;
if you use them for lip makeup, for example, on the lower lip on the side, then only for a photo shoot, since it will be difficult to talk, and even more so kiss, without fear of losing part of the decor.
Colors that match eye color: eg, brown-eyed golden ones are suitable, but you can play with color and, say, owners blue eyes decorate the tips of the eyelashes with red rhinestones. To understand how the selected color of rhinestones matches the image, attach them to your face.
How to apply: it is necessary to fasten the rhinestones separately with the help of transparent cosmetic eyelash glue on the false eyelashes, so that, removing this jewelry after the end of the holiday, you do not injure your own. And do everything very carefully, then they will definitely not get into the eye. Alternatively, you can purchase false eyelashes that are already decorated with rhinestones.
Overhead arrows
These arrows are usually made of thin velor and usually have a sticky backing. But in order to be guaranteed not to lose them during a holiday party, it is better to use eyelash glue. It must be applied to the back of the arrow and applied to the eyelid. It is worth choosing such arrows if you want to focus on the eyes. Or if you can’t learn how to draw straight lines yourself.
Miniature flowers, butterflies, feathers
Feathers can be long, short, shiny, with unusual prints and even decorated with rhinestones. With their help, you can create a “fox effect” – attach several bright and long feathers to the outer corner of the eye. A convenient option is ready-made feather eyelashes that are attached like false eyelashes.
Small artificial flowers or Butterflies can turn out to be a stylish highlight in the image, if you place them, for example, around the eyes. Or you can use a face art kit and draw them yourself using bright eyeliner.
Beads (broths)
These small beads may well replace rhinestones: they are not as bright and catchy, but they look very attractive.
It is always important to stop on time: then the romantic image will not only like the beloved, but will also evoke only the most pleasant memories.
