A few rules and tips
How to line your eyes with a pencil to increase the expressiveness of the look, give it magnetism and radiance? Here is what you can advise about this:
The shape of the eyes. Line type depends on it
- With an oval shape, draw the lower eyelid from the middle to the outer edge along the cilia growth line. The line becomes broken and thin; it can be shaded at will. The upper eyelid is brought in completely, only the starting point is taken slightly above the inner corner and the line is drawn, slightly beyond the ciliary. The stroke is brought to the outer edge, only without arrows - within this form of cut, they will be superfluous.
- How to line your eyes with a pencil if their shape resembles almonds? The lower eyelid is stained all over, without going beyond the border of the eyelashes. Upper - the line starts from the inner corner, is also carried out thinly along the cilia, then, closer to the middle, gradually thickens, and when brought to the end - you can make small arrows, from which the face acquires a perky, playful expression.
-
When the eyes are set deep, the lower eyelid is not painted, and the upper eyelid is outlined neatly and evenly exactly along the contour of the incision. Thickening is not necessary, they will hide the eyes even more.
- How to line your eyes with a pencil with a convex shape - here professional stylists can offer two options. The first - the lower eyelid is only stained with mascara, and the upper one - with a thick identical line from one corner to the other. If you want arrows, their corners rise up. The second option - both eyelids are tinted with bold lines, then the eyelashes are thickly painted. Stylists call this type of makeup "Twiggy", after the famous supermodel of the 60s Leslie Hornby.
-
In case of heavy eyelids, the upper one is not touched with a pencil, and the lower one is outlined completely, from corner to corner. The line is made straight, visually making the eyes longer.
- And, finally, how to line your eyes with a pencil and is it worth it at all if the corners are lowered or they themselves are small? The answer of makeup artists is unequivocal: no and no! The fact is that any clear lines emphasizethe size of such eyes or give them a whiny expression, like Pierrot's. Therefore, in this case, it is better to do with shadows.
2. Distance between eyes. If the eyes are set close, on the upper eyelid the line at the inner edge becomes thin, barely noticeable, and at the outer edge it is well drawn, with a thickening. Bottom - from the middle to the outer edge. With a distant or normal landing, both eyelids are stained.
3. It is not enough to know how to properly and beautifully make up your eyes - you need to take into account skin tone, hair and eye color, their compatibility with the color of pencils. Dark-haired and dark-skinned ladies can safely use black, the most popular color. Light-skinned ladies, of course, are more suitable for gray tones, and brown ones for red ones. The principle of harmony is necessary to create a beautiful, effective and natural make-up.
4. We draw eyes with a pencil of a suitable type. How to understand it? Elementary. We need clear lines - we also need a pencil with a hard lead, finely sharpened. It holds well, does not spread, suitable for persistent makeup. And if you need a haze effect, then a pencil with a soft lead is suitable. It can be shaded while maintaining the main line and its color.
5. The pencil is applied after the eyes are made up with shadows - so that the line does not smear.
As you can see, everything is not so difficult and scary, you just have to practice a little, experiment in front of the mirror. And everything will work out for you, and your eyes will shine on your face like stars.
