Makeup for green eyes and dark hair, light, red, for every day, for a wedding. Step-by-step instruction

The selection of decorative cosmetics, as well as the makeup technique for the owners of rare green eyes, depend on their shade, color saturation, and hair tone. Red, platinum and dark hair require a different approach.

Features of makeup for green-eyed girls

Before applying decorative cosmetics, it is required to determine the tone and shape of the eyes, skin tone and hairstyles. Owners of the iris of the green palette need to take into account that the make-up will have some differences depending on the saturation of the tone and the presence of other shades in it.

However, there are a number of general tips that can be used by everyone without exception:

• Better to stick to the complement principle rather than sharp contrast. In this regard, shades of beige and peach palette, soft pink, green, golden are more suitable. Choosing a play on contrast, you should use lighter and subtle notes of flashy colors - pastel purple, bronze, lilac, terracotta, lavender, red.
• It is better to remove shadows of the entire range of blue tones from the cosmetic bag. They don't match the color of the eyes and make the look harder.
• A favorite is to choose warm shades and get rid of cold ones (with the exception of purple). It is better to remove the decorative coating of the eyelid with notes of silver and white from the cosmetic bag, they, like all cold ones, "reduce" the saturation and expressiveness of the iris tone.

• It is permissible to use dry blush instead of shadows (a pink or beige palette is desirable).
• Avoid green with a yellow tint, it creates the effect of turning the iris into brown notes.
• Brown or gray eyeliner is preferable; use of black pencil is limited. Festive make-up allows the use of shades of gold, plum, violet or greenery (not matching the tone of the iris), the arrows can be burgundy.
• Mascara is recommended to choose black, brown is acceptable, for evening events - green, golden or purple.
• Bright tones in cosmetics imply the choice of only one tone, its use in a particular product.

• Apply foundation, remove unabsorbed product. The shade is selected depending on the skin tone. The density of the product is selected depending on the condition and quality of the skin. For green-eyed girls, it's best to avoid shiny options.
• Use a corrective agent (if redness, wrinkles, circles under the eyes are present). It should be applied in bright, preferably natural, lighting in order to accurately see all the tones. Green concealer will hide redness, pink - circles under the eyes and wrinkles, orange will cover very pronounced traces of insomnia. It is better to use a palette with several shades of the same color to mask the problem area without a visible transition. You can apply concealer only in a very thin layer, evenly, using a damp sponge, brush or fingertips. Apply a light eye shadow base and rest of your makeup.

• Make your eyebrows. To do this, using a pencil, you should mark the contour, remove all the hairs that protrude beyond it, comb the eyebrows. Using a beveled brush, apply shadows of the selected range with short strokes, blend them. You can use a pencil.
• Eyes up. First, several contour points are applied along the growth line of the cilia, which are then connected in the direction from the outer edge to the inner, making it gradually thinner. The line is completed 3-5 mm before the end of the century. Repeat the same steps on the lower part, only this strip needs to be made thinner. The upper and lower lines should be connected at the outer corner, they can go into the arrow, if the shape and fit of the organ of vision allows.
• Apply beige pigment under the eyebrows. For fair-skinned girls, pink is more suitable, for owners of a swarthy tone, a dull brown.
• Apply shadows. The direction of movement of the hand is from the outer corner to the eyebrow. First, a basic light shade is applied, then, only on the eyelid, a medium tone is applied and the transition is shaded. Apply a dark color from the center of the skin covering the eye to the corner of the eye, smooth the border with a brush. Fix everything with colorless powder.

• Apply mascara. It is advisable to use a voluminous version. The direction of movement is from the root to the tips from left to right (right eye) or from right to left (left eye). Moving the brush, you should do twisting actions. After applying the mascara, they are combed with a brush to separate, and then another layer is applied.
• Use lipstick.
