Where to begin?
Agree that without a beautiful shape, there is no point in dyeing the hairs. Even if you are fluent in the brush, the line without correction looks unattractive, rough and sloppy. Therefore, a separate place should be given to this issue.
Remember to start plucking after the perfect line has been drawn. You can determine the starting point by placing a long pencil on the face so that it simultaneously touches the wing of the nose and the inner corner of the eye. If you find that your arc is longer, you will have to remove it. Well, if it's shorter - add.
We carry out the second position (the highest) visually. Mark the edge of the iris and wing of the nose and extend the imaginary line so that it intersects. This will be the top of the bend.
The ending is obtained by connecting the lateral point on the nose wing and the angle on the outside of the eye. Feel free to say goodbye to the remainder that goes beyond the specified border.
A line should be drawn along the marked points. Thus, you will see which zone needs shaping, and which one needs to change the shade.
General recommendations are always useful, but individual characteristics of appearance must be taken into account.
- If you need to visually reduce the bridge of the nose, it is worth bringing the starting points closer to one another.
- A face with a widening forehead can be corrected by marking certain places. Place the pencil so that it is slightly farther, on the dimple of the olfactory organ. This will extend the arc. This manipulation is also useful for those with all body parts concentrated in the middle.
It is also important to take into account the shape of the face. For example, horizontal, smooth and curved are suitable for a round. Square - ascending, with a high rise. Triangular - ascending round. And only an oval variety is available.
Advice! If you don't want to waste time, go to a beauty salon. A professional master will carry out the work efficiently and beautifully.
Pencil drawing
The method is common among modern women of fashion, but has its own nuances. Choosing the right tool is important. The option for the eyes will not work, as it is softer than the special one. You should have hair that looks like real hair. They are thin and black. Blondes should get a dark brown shade, brunettes - chocolate or black, red - with red pigment.
The main secret of the treatment is that before starting the procedure, you should not apply a tonal foundation, otherwise the cosmetic will slip and wear off. Each stroke should reach five millimeters and be applied with light movements in the direction of growth.
For flawless makeup, you also need a stiff brush or a washed mascara brush. So, let's look at the step-by-step execution technique.
- Point all hairs down.
- Draw the bottom contour thinly and evenly.
- Do not bring the top to the widest part by 10 mm.
- Begin shading the resulting pattern with neat shading from top to bottom.
- While imaging the tip, lift it 1mm to give the look a youthful and sexy look. Some experts believe that this should not be done for naturalness. Try both options and choose the one that suits you.
- Comb and style as you are used to.
- Peel off some paint from the base to get rid of the overly graphical artificial beginning.
- For a natural look, blend the applied make-up.
Many girls are interested in the question of whether it is possible to use a tool designed for the eyes for our purposes. It has a soft texture, so working with it is similar to the procedure with shadows. The basic rule is not to go beyond your own contours. It must be very carefully shaded and removed with a cotton pad. Make sure that the hairs do not stick together. This is possible due to the soft lead.
Separately, it should be said about the black color. Consider your skin tone. Dark-skinned people need not worry, the darkest remedy will suit them. And for fair-skinned people it is better to give preference to a dark gray tone. Dark brown is also suitable if it does not stand out from the general picture in daytime.
Advice! To give the necessary shape, you can use special templates that are sold in cosmetics stores.
Distribution of shadows
If you are afraid that the strokes from the lead will be too noticeable, shadows come to your rescue. They look more harmonious, they are not difficult to lie down, and they also hold steadily throughout the day. But there are also disadvantages. Dry products are not resistant to moisture, so it is better to refuse them in summer or before visiting the pool.
Makeup artists recommend this type of procedure for girls with wide eyebrows. This will fill in all the space between hairs, accentuate the color and give them volume.
What do you need to perform the manipulation? Manufacturers offer customers whole sets that include a palette with several shades. They can be mixed with each other. The kit also contains a beveled brush, setting wax, stencils, a mirror and tweezers.
When choosing a product, give preference to a dense matte texture that differs from the standard eyelids. You may be offered different types.
- Dry products are considered the most common. They are easy to apply and mix. Designed to cover the entire surface.
- Persistent - liquid. They freeze quickly, so they need to be distributed with special care and accuracy.
- Gel specimens are average in structure between the two previous ones.
To find the right tone, consider your hairs. For brunettes, the scale is 1 - 2 tones lighter, and for blondes, it is darker. If you have black hair and dark skin, a resinous tone looks perfect. Beige is for platinum blondes, and taupe for Russocks.
To make the drawing perfect, choose your distribution method.
- Full sketching gives the effect. Shade all the way.
- Simulate hairs where necessary with partial paint over.
- If you have a drooping eyelid, accentuate under the lower border with shadows of a light range.
- You can adjust the fit of the eyes with a gradient.
- Widely spaced eyes mask the painting of the head with a dark palette, which dies down to the tip. For close-set ones, the opposite scheme is used.
General descriptions do not guarantee perfect results, so we offer step-by-step instructions.
- Comb the hairline in the direction of growth to visually assess its condition. If necessary, remove excess with tweezers.
- Moisturize the integument with a cream.It is better if it has a matting effect. Wait until it is completely dry. Thanks to this secret, the pigment will hold for a long time, and also apply softer.
- Simplify the process with a beige pencil outline or skin shadow.
- Gradually draw a complete sketch. Start from the head and move smoothly to the ponytail. Follow small strokes. Pay special attention to the kink. Please note that the brush should be angled and the pigment should be composed of several layers. If there is excess, remove it by blending and brushing.
- Use a light concealer to highlight the underbrow area for contrast.
If you practice a few times, you will realize that self-coloring is not as difficult as it seems.
Advice! Remember that natural beauty is trending, so don't go overboard with cosmetics. They shouldn't stand out from the big picture.
The paint gives a long lasting effect
In order not to waste time every time you apply makeup to draw eyebrows with a pencil or shadows, you can use paint. It is more resistant and stays in its original form for two weeks. It will not smudge, rub off or fade. But the technique requires certain skills.
Our version differs from the means for hair in increased safety. Does not spoil hair and does not cause chemical burns on the face. They do not harm the eyes in case of contact with them, but it is still necessary to wash thoroughly. Therefore, choose only specially formulated products. Give preference to popular and proven brands. In this case, experiments can cost you your health.
We suggest paying attention to the following compositions:
- Estel Professional Only Looks;
- Concept;
- Rocolor.
Choose a shade according to the previously described principles 1 - 2 tones darker or lighter than a natural mop.
The main difference is that you should definitely test for an allergic reaction. It is a chemical product and therefore contains aggressive components. A day before the manipulation, apply a small amount of the drug on the elbow bend or on the skin of the wrist. If no irritation has arisen, you can safely apply it to your face.
So, let's start coloring.
In addition to the coloring composition, you will need tweezers, cotton wool, a pencil, fat cream, a brush and a mixing container. The last two tools are usually included in a set offered by manufacturers.
- Remove all excess hair in the first step. It is better for blondes to carry out the correction at the end of the procedure.
- Mark the outlines with a dark or white bar to avoid errors that will occur during distribution.
- To prevent the mixture from being absorbed into unnecessary areas, lubricate around with a fat cream. If you do hit the wrong area, use a waterproof mascara remover.
- Mix the composition according to the instructions. To do this, add 8-10 drops of an oxidizing agent to 2 grams of paint. Note that you will get a slightly light tone, but do not change the dosage, otherwise the eyebrows will be too dark.
- With a thin beveled brush, apply with a gentle, pressing motion to spread the mixture. Makeup artists recommend starting from the middle, gradually moving towards the tip. The inner part is changed last, as it should be a little lighter.
- Quickly remove the excess with a cotton swab so that no unnecessary marks remain.
- Wait for the required period (10-15 minutes) in the supine position.
- Erase the contours of the pencil, and lubricate the eyebrows with cream.
- Remove the dye with a sponge, which you previously moistened with warm water.
If you don't like the resulting shade, wash it off with your own tonic. Mix lemon juice and ammonia. It is better to do this right away, because after a day it will not be possible to remove it.
Advice! Be sure to disinfect the skin after modeling to avoid infection.
How to use henna?
Naturally, there are many benefits to using natural dyes. They are safe, affordable and easy to use. In addition, henna is diluted with water, not ammonia.
The disadvantages of lavsonia are that it should be kept for 40 minutes. If there are wrinkles and scars on the skin, they will remain colorless. On a greasy surface, the result will not last long.
The product is sold in a colorless and ginger version. Add a dye or herbal extract to get the shade you want. You can achieve chestnut with coffee. A little lighter - basma. It also depends on the concentration of additional components.
The procedure does not differ from exposure to special paint.
Advice!Don't try to follow fashion strictly. Girls with too wide an arc look ridiculous and funny. Harmony must be observed in everything.
