Eyeshadow

Shadows are compact

( dry) and creamy( liquid).

Dry shadows hold well, they are easy to apply.

Creamy shadows are more difficult to apply on the eyelids, especially if the make-up is complex. In addition, liquid shadows are less shaded than dry ones, and are kept less - after a few hours they roll down on the eyelids. However, creamy shadows look much brighter than dry ones;also liquid shadows are better combined with each other in color, and in complex makiyazh - easily and imperceptibly pass into another color, not designating the border of the transition. Women who have a lot of wrinkles around their eyes, it is better to abandon the use of pearlescent shadows - they will emphasize the age even more.

Eye Contour Removal Tools

1. Liquid eyeliner gives the thinnest and brightest line compared to other cosmetic products. It is impossible to shade or paint over, so using the piping requires skill, a firm hand and accuracy.

All well-known cosmetic companies produce liquid linings of various colors. Not too different in composition, the eyeliner is divided into 2 groups according to the method of application to the eyelids:

eyeliner with a brush;

eyeliner-marker( with a rod).

"Felt-tip pens" is more convenient to use, since it has a solid tip and a dosed ink supply.

2. Contour eyeliner. Because of the convenience in use and the variety of colors, this is perhaps the most common means of decorative cosmetics.

Today there are 3 main types of eyeliner:

is an ordinary wooden, which must be sharpened;

retractable pencil in plastic case;

thick pencil with a soft pearly rod.

The usual wooden pencil for the effect is most similar to the liquid eyeliner. He lays down a thin enough matte line and creates a clear outline of the eyes( provided that it is well sharpened).It is dullness, unlike bright liquid podvodki looks natural. In addition, a wooden pencil is more convenient to use: it can be applied with subtle marks, its line can be slightly shaded, corrected and, if necessary, wiped. The inconvenience is only the constant need to sharpen.

Retractable pencil. It does not need to be sharpened, and therefore it always lies with a wide soft line. By its effect, this pencil approaches the shadows. The contour from it is vague, easily shaded and at the same time well shades the eyes.

Thick pencil with mother-of-pearl reflow. He lays down so wide a line that there is no need to shade it. A thick pencil is not black. Beautiful color shades make it suitable for performing daytime make-up.

Some firms produce double-sided thick pencils, both sides of which have the same color, but different degrees of pearlescent. More matte side can be emphasized, and pearly shade the outline.

When choosing a contour eyeliner, especially if you prefer a wooden eyelid, make sure that it is not too hard to scratch the delicate skin around the eyes. However, the excessively soft pencil quickly spreads out, which leads to loss of the contour. The softness test should be carried out on the inner side of the wrist, whose skin, according to tenderness, is similar to the skin of the eyelids. The line from the pencil should be thin, clear, continuous, and thus the pencil should not leave on a skin dents or superficial scratches.
