Makeup is an art, and mastering it is not as easy as it seems. Nowadays, natural beauty is in fashion, as they say - makeup-nomakeup. But sometimes it happens that when creating a natural image, we are mistaken somewhere. The result is frankly vulgar makeup, which causes either ridicule or bewilderment. How to avoid such a phenomenon on your face? Are there "rules" by which vulgar makeup is done? Yes, they are, and we will focus on them now.
A little preface
On the streets of our native cities, we very often meet the fair sex, who wear vulgar makeup. Photographs in magazines even sometimes show us such "hits", and looking at them, some believe that it is fashionable and beautiful. We note right away: what is printed in a fashion magazine is a carnival. Such a make-up is created to maintain a particular image or to demonstrate a specifichairstyles. In real life, such "paints" are extremely inappropriate, so you should forget about them. But if this truth is simple and understandable to everyone, why do we still see how women, not sparing themselves, leave the house with an unaesthetically designed face, and assume that everything is in order with them? The fact is that even when trying to create a nude, neutral make-up, sometimes you can make mistakes. Shade mismatch, improperly selected eyebrow shape, excess mascara - these and many other details noticeably spoil the image. We will describe in detail how to avoid such mistakes below, but for now let's look at another, much more deplorable case…
Makeup from the past
To understand what vulgar makeup looks like, just remember the fashion of the 80s and 90s. No, not the one that was printed on the glossy Vogue and Elle, but the one that was distributed in the post-Soviet space. Blue shadows, red lipsticks, black lip pencils, pink blush, blue brasmatiks, liquid glitter eyeshadows - all this could be combined in one make-up. Most women firmly believed: the brighter, the more fashionable. And the ladies did not spare money for the purchase of low-quality, but very bright cosmetics. It turned out a rather vulgar make-up, which was appropriate not only in the evening, but also during the day, at work. Nowadays, such "trends" are considered bad manners, but some ladies continue to paint like this. It is useless to look for mistakes here - all makeup in this case is a complete mistake. And to correct the situation, it is best to familiarize yourself with new make-up techniques, and then study the mistakes that you can make.
Modernrules
At first glance, it seems that the fashion world has left blue shadows and black lip contour in the distant past, and this war paint has been replaced by nude palettes and bronzers with natural shine. But as soon as you open Instagram, we see makeup tutorials that allow you to create an equally bright and catchy look, only now using those same skin tones. Is this possible? Yes, if you overdo it with a highlighter, apply several layers of brown shadows, stick on false eyelashes - and your face turns into something shimmery. Such techniques should be avoided, since with their help you can only make a vulgar make-up, devoid of a sense of proportion and taste. All these "tricks" are good for working in front of the camera, for stage and TV shows. They are also useful for themed parties.
Now we turn to the main question: how to make vulgar makeup, or rather, what mistakes we make, and as a result of what actions the integrity and naturalness of the image collapses.
Foundation
Problem: those who grew up in the 80s and 90s remember the miraculous foundation "Ballet" and its mask effect. Although this product is long gone, the new textures, when properly layered, make it possible to achieve a similar "ballet effect". Often, girls who have problematic skin go overboard with the tonal foundation in the hope of hiding all the flaws. In such cases, on the contrary, they become more noticeable, in addition, the cream begins to clog into folds, making the face look older andsloppy.
Solution: concealer will allow you to hide imperfections, which should be applied pointwise. It is best to finish your complexion with a mineral rather than compact powder.
Excessive sculpting
Problem: A few years ago, sculpting burst into the lives of ordinary girls. This is a make-up technique in which the relief of the face is worked out with light and dark pigments. This technique is necessary for working in front of the camera and for the stage, but in everyday life it is superfluous, especially if you go too far with the amount of paint. After this trend left the top of popularity, many cosmetologists and stylists began to assure women that sculpting was the new generation of vulgar makeup.
Solution: If your face is too rough, you can afford some light contouring. Highlight the top of the cheekbones with a small amount of light pigment, and emphasize the bottom with a bronzer. Leave a dark current under the lower lip and a light one above the upper. Slightly darken the edges of the forehead and wings of the nose. Be sure to blend the dye thoroughly and set with mineral powder.
Both here and there
Problem: stylists vied with each other: you need to highlight one thing - either lips or eyes, and this is the truth. You can not carefully paint over the eyelids with dark shadows and a black pencil, and then make up your lips with red or wine lipstick. So you will look like a representative of the oldest profession, and if there are still defects on your face, they will become much moreconspicuous.
Solution: Identify your strengths. If you have unearthly beauty eyes, work on them. Choose the right shade of shadows and the technique of applying them, choose the perfect shape of the arrows, paint over the cilia. If you are the owner of plump and sensual lips, focus on them. Bright and dark lipsticks will help you, and at the same time only lightly tint your eyes.
Watch your eyebrows
Problem: alas, quite recently women all over the world realized that it is the eyebrows that are responsible for the integrity of the image, they form our appearance. Often women ignore this point, turning their eyebrows either into thin threads of an unnatural shape, or into rough "logs" filled with tattoo paint. Both the first and second options look extremely vulgar, so you should find a middle ground.
Solution: Grow your eyebrows out and find out what their natural shape is. Color it with henna or work it out daily with shadows / pencil and gel. It is important to choose the tone of the dye that matches the color of the hair.
Too much glitter
Problem: Bronzers and highlighters are modern beauty products that were designed to make women more beautiful and still leave their beauty natural. It didn't work out quite as planned. When applying bronzer and highlighter at home, sometimes you don’t notice that the pigment has already been fixed on the skin in sufficient quantities. Going out into the street, the face does not just shine, but reflects everything around andlooks extremely untidy.
Solution: One layer of highlighter and bronzer is enough to shine without looking vulgar.
Very rosy cheeks
Problem: The rules of modern make-up dictate to us that blush, which women used to cover almost all cheeks, should be applied in small quantities on the cheeks between the stripes of the sculptor and highlighter. Trying to be brighter, girls often get carried away with pink and peach pigments, mixing them with light and dark lines that should frame them. The result is an unaesthetic mix that looks dirty, untidy and vulgar.
Solution: try to use blush only for special events, they are not needed for daytime makeup. You need to apply them in the thinnest layer, and on top you can cover with mineral powder. And try not to match the blush to match the lipstick - this is the last century.
Taboo for dark haired women
At first glance, it seems that brunettes have such a bright appearance that against her background, even the most expressive and catchy make-up will look organic. But in fact, it’s worth a little overdoing it, and the image becomes cheaper, becomes vulgar and untidy. What kind of vulgar makeup for brunettes is it, and what mistakes can dark-haired young ladies make when shaping their face?
- Very dark and very wide eyebrows. If your eyebrows are naturally black, then every extra hair will be very noticeable, so they will need to be adjusted regularly. When eyebrowsdyed in a dark color, make sure that it is a little lighter than the shade of the hair.
- Lack of a clear lip contour. This does not mean that you need to draw it with a black pencil. Just lips should be graphic, neat, complete. If the lipstick seems to be smeared, the image becomes sloppy and untidy.
- Bright shadows. Against the background of dark hair, green, blue, turquoise and other "juicy" shades will look funny and defiant.
Taboo for blonde ladies
For a blonde, vulgar makeup is any deviation from naturalness and naturalness, any use of bright or dark pigment. If the appearance is framed by light hair, you should be very careful when creating a make-up.
- When it comes to red lipstick, the tone should ideally match the tone of the skin and eyes. Lips should be graphic and neat.
- Arrows should be drawn very thin. Thick and uneven lines will cause the image to be vulgar.
- Excess blush is unacceptable.
- Just as shown in the photo, vulgar makeup for a blonde is too light lipstick, made up not on the contour of the lips. Lipstick color should be natural and natural.
Conclusion
Makeup is a whole science. Sometimes it seems that only a painter can master it. But don't despair. Practice, experiment, look for the most suitable colors and textures for yourself, and be sure toso that the image is natural, harmonious and holistic.
