Makeup for the Flying Age: Tips and Walkthroughs

Hanging eyelid is a very common problem that occurs both in young girls and in women of age. The fact is that the hanging eyelid visually reduces the eyes, it is also very difficult to apply makeup so as to make the eyes open and expressive.

The beautiful half of humanity seeks to do everything possible to look great. A good helper in this matter is makeup, which, when properly applied, will turn the girl into a queen by hiding some external flaws, one of which is a hanging eyelid. It gives the look of fatigue and makes the face sad.

Hanging eyelid or, as it is often called, hanging, heavy, lowered or hidden, is a special anatomical structure of the eyes, in which the upper eyelid is lowered onto the lower (movable), forming the so-called "hood" of the skin. This feature is innate or acquired.

Hanging eyelid is the result of age-related changes. (women face it after 50 years of age), national traits, dramatic weight loss, allergic reactions and small edema that have appeared after incorrectly chosen cosmetics.

The upper eyelid may also hang due to deep-set eyes.

In total, there are three types of overhanging centuries:

• the moving upper eyelid area becomes invisible;
• only the portion of the upper eyelid is visible from the inner corner of the eye;
• eyelid sags until the middle of the cut eyes.

Despite the nature of the appearance, women who have this shape of the structure of the eye, face a lot of problems when applying cosmetics:

• the shadows do not last long, rolling in the fold of the eyelid;
• the ends of the drawn arrows can “break”, their contour will be lost, or, moreover, the line from the liner or pencil will be printed on the upper eyelid;
• mascara stains the upper eyelid.

In the case of an acquired overhang nature, this flaw can be removed by performing special exercises. Additional benefits will be obtained through recreation, drinking clean water and taking vitamins.

The main goal of each of the professional techniques is the adjustment of the lowered upper eyelids.

We recommend using a few tricks makeup artists when applying makeup, so as not to get the opposite effect:

• First of all, it is necessary to determine the shape of the eyebrows. The eyebrow of the raised and extended form helps to open a look visually. Avoid thick hair on the eyebrows. Creating a beautiful line is best left to a specialist. Support for the created form can be done on your own.

• Picking up the shadows, do not stop the selection on pearl shades. These tones are used exclusively for making fine lines. The result of this manipulation will be stale look.
• Matte shadows should be applied a continuous coating.Focus on the shade of the iris, selecting the color gamut of shadows. In addition, the type of skin and hair color is important.

• The inner corners of the eyes can be emphasized with light shades of a pencil. The dark eyeliner should be applied before reaching the middle of the eye.
• Use a dark pencil only to highlight the corners of the eyes from the outside. In addition, this area should be decorated with darker shades of shadows.

• Eyeliner, arrows and all clear lines need to be shaded after they are applied. Lack of boundaries can visually lift the upper zone of the eye.
• Disguise the lower sagging can be using concealer. However, use it with caution, as excess light will create the opposite effect.

• Dark shadows, which are used to highlight external corners, can be applied beyond the boundaries of the eye. Do not forget to observe a reasonable measure when applying shadows.
• Stylists often use a method to help enlarge their eyes, making them more open. It is based on the application of white shadows in the area of ​​the inner corners of the eyes and their shading with a slight approach to the nose bridge.

• Having painted the crease of the moving eyelid with shadows of dark shades, you can change the visual perception of the eye section, removing the swelling.
• Thanks to the luxurious volumetric eyelashes, you can hide the hanging eyelids. In this case, the upper ciliary row can be densely and carefully painted over with ink, while the lower one, apart from the corners, can be left undyed. If you are the owner of rare and short eyelashes, then you can go through the extension procedure. Most importantly, they look natural and do not cause discomfort to the eyes.

You can hide the hanging eyelids by applying shadows, a pencil or a mascara. Moreover, the desired effect will be obtained from the use of them as individual components, and in the complex. Applying makeup with a pencil or eye shadow may require special skills.

This is due to the fact that you need to know where to start drawing an arrow. Makeup should fulfill its main task - to visually make small eyes large.

Drawing an arrow should be started from the center of the eyelid, gradually expanding it, raising the area of ​​the outer corner of the eye. Do not make the line too thin, as it may create a visual sensation of several folds in the eyelid. Therefore, to draw an arrow, use a pencil rather than eyeliner.

The line on the lower eyelid needs to start from the inner corner of the eye, and when approaching the outer corner, it should be done slightly raised upward.

Before starting the procedure, sharpen the instrument well so that the resulting arrow is level.

As in the case of a pencil, the color gamut of the shadows should be dark and matte, so as not to attract attention with brilliant hues to the area of ​​the face that needs to be masked. But the area of ​​the inner corner of the eye can be colored with light shadows, like the outer corner of the eyebrow.

However, closer to the center, the light color should turn into dark, and on the outer corner of the eye to become pure black. Applying a shadow of dark shade can hide the hanging eyelid. The only thing - do not forget to shade them.

The result will not be so obvious if mascara is used without using shadows or without arrows. Therefore, a stunning result will be achieved after using the complex of these cosmetics.

Cilia is recommended not to do straight, but a little twisted upward.This technique will help make the eyes bigger and mask the defect of the eyelid. When buying mascara, give preference to models that create a twisting effect.

Makeup Smoky Eyes is considered the most preferred for women with impeded centuries.

Before you start creating an image, stock up with a shadow base or cream shadows of the corresponding color palette, a flat brush to apply cream shadows, a palette of shadows of natural shades, a fluffy brush for feathering, a flat shadow brush, gel liner, an eyeliner, and ink.

Proper step by step instructions for creating makeup consists of the following steps:

• Using a flat brush, apply a base or cream shadows on the entire area of ​​the upper and lower eyelids, you can slightly go beyond the folds of the upper eyelids. As a result, you will prepare the basis for dry shadows, which will make the color shade of the shadows brighter and will not allow them to slide in a day.
• Take a palette of your favorite shades of shadows and apply the lightest on the sub-area with a fluffy brush.

• Using the same brush, apply a layer of medium hue of shadows to the entire area of ​​the moving eyelid, slightly going beyond the fold. You can check the correctness of applying the shadows in this way: look straight ahead, relax your eyelids and see if the second shade is visible above the crease of the eyelid. If so, then the whole procedure is correct;
• A small flat brush with the darkest shade can make up the entire movable eyelid, without going beyond the fold. Take a fluffy brush, mix 2 shades of shadows. This process is performed by several movements of the brush on the border of two colors until it disappears.

• Again, take a flat brush with the darkest shade, applying it on the site of the lower eyelid. Do not leave unpainted areas near the outer corner of the eye. If there are any, fill them with the darkest color.
• Then go to the liner. Type a little money on the brush and apply it on the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid. Wait for the first layer to dry and repeat the process again, painting the upper eyelid mid-lash area in parallel.
• Draw the eyeliner arrow on the upper eyelid. Do not try to make it perfectly smooth, because it will subsequently be shaded. Pencil can serve as an alternative to eyeliner.

• To add a raisin to the image, you can apply bright blue shadows on the arrow and shade or choose the darkest shade from the palette and shade the arrow with it.
• Walk with a fluffy brush on the outer edges of the visage to get the perfect shading.
• At the end, apply mascara on the eyelashes in the direction from the roots to the tips, carefully coloring. At this stage, you can stop either to give a greater effect to glue false eyelashes, then re-apply mascara to combine artificial eyelashes with natural.

Girls of Asian appearance stand out with a narrow slit of eyes. Along with this, there may be no folds in the eyelid or there is a hanging eyelid. Often, makeup artists call it “eyes without eyelids,” but this should not detract from the other merits of such appearance. You can hide this feature with the correct makeup.

The amber technique is a suitable option. It is based on a smooth transition from one shade to another. Shadows of a dark palette need to be applied close to the eyelashes, as you remove, the color should become lighter. Such a technique will be able to form visually the depth needed by the eyes of Asian ladies, who have almost no folds in the eyelids.

A lady after 45 years old begins to lose its former beauty, which can be supported by the miraculous powers of cosmetics or by the magic hands of make-up artists. At this time there are problems with the elasticity of the skin, among which the most common is the “heavy” eyelid.

Age makeup is considered a separate serious science, which stylists carefully study and undergo serious practice.

The lady will be able to independently create the right anti-aging makeup, using well-chosen cosmetics:

• Powder and blush with a cream base. This composition is evenly distributed on the skin of the face, hiding wrinkles and other imperfections.

• Dense tonal basis. The first deep wrinkles signal the end of a barely visible foundation. Good masking of wrinkles will require a more dense tonal means.
• Contour pencil, which will replace lipstick. The pencil lays down more densely, providing steady color. Do not forget to use moisturizers for the lips, for example, hygienic lipstick with various essential oils.
• Shadows that should replace eyeliner, have the property to roll and move to the upper eyelid. They will better cover the area of ​​the century, will not be clogged in wrinkles and will not be printed on the eyelid.

Anti-aging make-up is characterized by distinctive features, which are guided by which should create your image:

• Eliminate the use of eyeliner due to the fact that the hanging eyelids will not allow it to settle down in a straight line.
• Never use a pencil and a shadow of a red palette that will add to your eyes a feeling of fatigue.
• Do not use blue, purple, lilac shades of shadows, as they will make the bruises under the eyes more visible.

• Replace the ink and pencil with black sharp tones with less flashy ones, in particular, dark brown ones.
• Drawn make-up lines should aim up, not down. Otherwise, the masking of defects will be replaced by underlining the sagging skin.

Remember that the dark color gamut visually reduces, and light - increases and approximates. The ability to play light and shade is very important for age makeup. Lightening and darkening of the desired eyelid zones can change the size and shape of the folds, and often completely hide them.

In the main, when the eyelids are hanging, the part of the inner corner of the eye is covered with light shades, while the dark ones are covered with a fold and slightly along the outer edges.

Ladies at the age of 45 years will not fit a round line above the eyes due to giving visual aging to the face. Also, pay attention to the edges of the eyebrows, which should not fall below the corners of the eyes. Draw on the eyebrows through thin strokes of a calm color, which should be one tone brighter than the color of the shadows.

In the presence of swollen or drooping eyelids, you must carefully approach the creation of the image:

• Make-up should be natural;
• eyebrows should be made of medium thickness;
• choose the shades of matte models with calm shades: ivory and tea rose palettes are suitable for fair-skinned ladies, beige-brown tones are suitable for dark-skinned ones;

• above the fold it is worth putting shadows that are a couple of tones darker;
• the area of ​​the upper eyelids is slightly underlined with the help of a soft pencil and its shading;
• small application of shadows of the light palette on the area of ​​the inner corner of the eye;
• at the end you should apply mascara on the top row of eyelashes.

Summarizing the features of the age make-up for the hanging eyelids, we can highlight the lack of "graphic", applying soft and "blurry" lines.

The narrow shape of the eyes is mainly characteristic of Asian girls. Visually increase their size by using properly selected cosmetics.

Make-up in this case is applied using nude color palette. Choosing a primary color, give preference to beige, peach or light brown.A darker shade is used to cover the outer corner of the eye with a 45 ° tilt, then a line is drawn that outlines the eye.

All this must be carefully shaded. The same color should be applied in small quantities on the inside corners. It is necessary to shade and lower eyelid - the area of ​​the inner corner of a light shade, closer to the edges of the eyes - dark. Almond-shaped eyes look advantageous with false eyelashes.

Disguise the eyelid, having small eyes, you can use a special technique of applying cosmetics to the eyes.

With the help of feathering impose a dark shade towards the temple. As a basis, choose a light color that needs to be applied to the border of the eyebrows. Below them should also be applied slightly visible shadows. The design of the lower border of the eye should be done in the following way: apply eye shadow as low as possible, washing out the border with a hard brush.

The arched eyebrows can significantly mask the hanging eyelids in the case of deep-set eyes. The pale color of the shadows can highlight them.

The movable eyelid should be covered with a medium color tone, while the dark one is applied at a steep angle towards the temple with a strong shading. The outer zone of the lower eyelid is also painted in a dark color, the inner one is lightened.

For young ladies with lowered eyes, the hanging eyelid is raised by using the effect of the contoured moving part.

The main plot is painted in nude shade. The edge of the eyelashes must be drawn with a dark pencil and then shaded. The average color shade will outline the mobile eyelid and “brought” to the eyebrows. The lower edge of the eye is covered with an average color palette, connecting with it the same, but applied to the upper part of the eye.

In the case of bulging eyes, the problem of hanging eyelids can be solved by drawing an artificial upper fold. To this end, the entire upper part is covered with a highlighter or white eye shadow, then a crease is drawn in darker. Make-up should be applied, guided by the following rule: the middle of the eyes should be left more lightened, and darkened - the inner and outer corners. They should be joined together above the line drawn earlier. The base of the eyebrows must be highlighted with a highlighter.

In order to make-up turned the young lady into a real queen, choosing a shade of shadow, consider the color of the eyes.

Brown-eyed persons with hanging eyelids should be avoided when applying cosmetics pinkish and bright yellow shades. By applying beige, peach, golden flowers, you can visually expand brown eyes. The transition from a pale palette to a dark one should be slightly shaded.

When creating an evening look, it is allowed to use more saturated colors, preferably purple or blue shades.

Young ladies with green eyes are recommended to prefer brown, blue or red shadows. It should not use flashy and soft shades. Do not forget about the need for shading. Also, keep in mind that cosmetics for a green-eyed girl should have a warm palette.

It is recommended to combine two or more shades, guided by their fuzzy gradation from light to dark.

Blue-eyed representatives of the beautiful half of humanity will be able to create the perfect image using one scheme. It is carried out in gray, orange or brown colors. The combination of burgundy and yellow is ideal. Do not make borders clear using brown shadows.

Proper day makeup for owners of eyebrows is based on a neutral palette of shadows. Suitable for this warm brown and gray-brown shades. To highlight certain areas, you should use white shadow-highlighter.

Additionally, dark brown and charcoal black pencils are required.You need to prepare black and brown or classic black mascara.

Having prepared all the necessary tools, you can proceed directly to the process of creating makeup:

• Using the gray-brown shade of the shadows, select the zone of the mobile upper eyelid and the eyelid below. Bottom draw a line that should not reach the outer corner of the eye.
• The entire fold should be painted with a warm brown color and the creation of volume in the area of ​​the outer corner. Outline the area above the fold.
• With brown shadows that have a gray tint, focus on the outer corner, darkening it slightly.
• Use a warm brown color to highlight the mid-lower eyelid. You can eliminate the flashiness of this detail by holding a thin line above the gray-brown shadows.

• The area of ​​the inner corner must be framed with a highlighter. Carefully cover them top and bottom.
• Paint the inner half of the mobile century with white shadows. Cover the two halves with a highlighter, creating a highlight.
• Highlight the top-level zone with a highlighter.
• Using a black pencil, carefully select the area of ​​growth of the upper eyelashes.
• If the eyes are not very small, you can circle around the area of ​​the lower mucosa with a brown pencil.
• The final stage will be drawing mascara.

Choosing the tone, saturation of the color palette for evening makeup, consider the nature of the event. So, make-up, made in thin, transparent and delicate notes, “gets lost” among the frequent flashes of light on the dance floor.

The presence of soft, diffused lighting, which is inherent in a romantic meeting, will transform the palette of cold shades to grayish, the green color will change to brown. These features will help you choose the appropriate decorative range.

Like other types of visage, the evening should be started with the application of the base. Using a flat brush, it is necessary to distribute the light shade shadows with a slight shimmer over the upper eyelid zone, leaving the area of ​​the outer third unpainted (you need to start from the inner corner zone). No need to go beyond the section above the fold.

With the help of a small flat brush and dark matte shadows should be allocated 1/3 of the upper eyelid from the outer corner. Next, you need to extend the contour up to the intersection with the orbital line. It should turn out the so-called arrow, which has an upturned tip.

The same dark scale should fill 1/3 of the upper eyelid to the orbital contour, starting from the end of the arrow. It is recommended to carry out feathering using diagonal movements. Use the same brush with the remnants of dark shadows to determine the fold line on the upper eyelid, without closing the eye, moving from the outside corner to the inside without affecting the last third.

By means of matte red-brown shadows it is necessary to soften the border of two shades on the upper eyelid. This step can be assigned to a special fluffy brush for blending.

The same brush should be applied red-brown shadows on the area of ​​the folds of the upper eyelid, as well as 1/3 of the lower eyelid, gently feathering the borders of dark brown hue.

Use a small brush to cover the underside with light satin shadows, as well as the skin of the inner corner of the eye. Also use this shade for painting the lower eyelid by 2/3, starting from the inner corner. The image needs to be completed by painting the eyelashes with mascara, which will lengthen the eyelashes.

• Eyebrows should not stand out much. It is enough just to correct them and give them a natural shade. To compensate for the hanging eyelid, it is worth a little "lift" the tail of an eyebrow.
