The function of the eyelids is to protect the eye from external influences and from drying out. The eyelid consists of a movable, upper and lower parts and has a fold. The skin of this delicate area of the face is very thin and delicate, easily stretched. The upper part can hang over the movable one, hiding the crease. This is a structural feature of the eyelids or age-related changes. This area needs special care to maintain elasticity and firmness.
For an excellent condition of the eyelids, it is necessary to regularly use products that moisturize the skin of the delicate zone and promote the production of collagen. Hanging eyelids change facial expression: the look becomes sad and dejected. The natural feature of the structure of such eyelids, as well as age-related changes in this area, can be corrected with the help of decorative cosmetics.
How to do eye makeup for impending eyelids
As with any other make-up, you should not forget about flawless skin tone. Use correctors to hide flaws and highlight the advantages of your face. The main thing is to have as few imperfections as possible, then makeup will make your hanging eyelids the highlight of the image. Apply shades on the closed eye to more clearly draw each part of the eyelid and periodically open it to see the pattern when the eyelid is open. Start with the eyebrows: a clean line with a break and a shortened length will frame the eyes well. Be sure to use an eyeshadow base that will prevent smudging and improve application.
Make the very first stroke under the break of the eyebrow. It can be a highlighter or light pearlescent shadows. This highlight visually lifts the hanging eyelids. The main thing is not to apply a light shade at the end of the eyebrow. This will focus on the structural features of the eyes. Cover the inner corner of the eye and the moving eyelid with a shade of shadow close to the skin tone. In no case do not go beyond the boundaries of the moving eyelid. Otherwise, make the overhang of the upper eyelid more pronounced. The next feature of the make-up is the drawing of the crease with a dark shade of matte shadows, which should start at the inner corner of the eye and end at the outer with the transition to the moving eyelid. The crease should be shaded and clearly visible both with closed and open eyes.
A prerequisite for makeup is that the outer corner of the movable eyelid should visually lift the overhanging eyelids, making the look open and light. The next step is drawing the ciliary edge. This emphasis will make a clear boundary between the moving eyelid and the crease. Make this stroke better with long-lasting eyeliner or matte shadows in a wet way.
It all depends on how mucheyelid droops. A stable eyeliner will not allow the traced ciliary edge to be imprinted on the crease. On the lower eyelid, two-thirds from the outer corner of the eye, apply the same shade as on the crease. In conclusion, focus on light matte shadows in the middle of the moving eyelid. Eye makeup with impending eyelids is ready. Make sure that the borders of the shades are well shaded. Add powder, blush, lipstick, mascara to your makeup, and you are irresistible!
