Beautiful casual makeup - the key to success throughout the day. Correctly selected make-up will help in work, and at business meetings, and on a date. Make-up for each day is significantly different from the evening or holiday, so before you begin to implement it, you must familiarize yourself with all the features.
The basic rules of day makeup
Eye makeup for every day differs from other options in the color palette, application techniques, the choice of appropriate shades of lipstick for lips. In addition, it is important to follow all the steps of applying make-up on the face.
Mostly daytime makeup is identified with nude.
The basic rules and steps of everyday makeup include:
- Preparing the foundation: applying a moisturizer, foundation, concealer, highlighter, using powder and blush or bronzer;
- Styling and correction of eyebrows in accordance with the hair color;
- The design and selection of eyes with the help of shadows, mascara, eyeliner or pencil;
- Use lipstick and contour.
In addition to carefully selecting the foundation and powder for the face, suitable to the skin tone, it is very important to choose a palette of shadows for simple makeup. Shadows should be invisible, but at the same time to perform proper functions: emphasize the eye expressively, correct their shape and draw attention to the look.
Ideal shades of eye shadow for day makeup:
- Peach;
- Beige;
- Corporeal;
- Light brown;
- Cinnamon;
- Chocolate;
- Champagne;
- Powdery;
- Dusty rose;
- Golden.
Shading can be either matte or mother-of-pearl. However, it is recommended to avoid applying too much sheen. An exception is the use of a shimmer in a make-up intended for a date.
For everyday makeup, it is recommended to use warm shades of lipstick, you can also resort to the use of lip gloss or tint dim tone.
Lipstick can be replaced by a subtle blusher with a creamy texture.
Lip lip gloss is recommended to choose depending on the finish:
- Opaque: beige, light brown, cinnamon or corporal shade;
- Pearl: pale pink, champagne, with a red undertone or mauve nuances.
For everyday make-up, colorful, eye-catching lipsticks are absolutely not suitable. Saturated lip colors are allowed as a subtone if lipstick in nude shades.
Of the techniques, smoky ice in delicate colors, a relief method of applying shadows and a “loop” that helps to highlight the outer corner of the eye with a darker nuance will be the most relevant. You can also decorate everyday makeup with the help of arrows.
We select everyday make-up depending on the eye color
Beautiful light make-up for every day directly depends not only on the time of day, purpose, shade of hair, but also on eye color. Before applying makeup you need to decide on a color palette that fits directly to the eyes, which will help to highlight the look.
Shadows need to be chosen in several shades, but a single scale that goes from light to dark. This will help make the look and face more expressive. You must also take into account the color of the carcass and eyeliner, so that the shades do not merge with the base, but they do not contrast much.
For a balanced everyday image, it is recommended to combine a bright base with arrows in pastel colors or a light pearl shimmer.
Make-up artists advise lovers to emphasize the lower eyelid with an additional arrow to change tactics and use a soft pencil or shades of neutral shades that are easy to shade instead of liner.
For brown eyes
For brown-eyed girls, it’s easy to find a beautiful make-up for every day. Neutral shades of shades are suitable for such a face, so any make-up made in the right color palette will look perfect.
Shades of shadows suitable for hazel eyes:
- Light pink;
- Pink;
- Peach;
- Beige;
- Chocolate;
- Smoky.
In this case, depending on the skin tone, it is recommended to use a blush with a cold subtone or bronzer. Overly abundant contouring of the face will look artificial, which can spoil the overall impression of the makeup.
Beautiful makeup for brown eyes can be created with the help of eye shadows with a golden sheen and a bronze liner.
For lips brown-eyed girls should be preferred to saturated shades of lipstick:
- Lilac;
- Lilov;
- Corporal;
- Brown.
From the techniques of applying shadows fit: Smoky ice, cut crease, loop. The most interesting option for every day is cut crease, in which the emphasis is on the crease between the mobile and fixed eyelids. However, for daytime makeup it is better to choose a non-standard version with a transparent shimmer.
You can run this technique pretty quickly, armed with the necessary palettes and brushes.
Step 1: we put on a mobile eyelid a shadow basis. The color of the shadows can be any, but it is desirable to choose as close as possible to the natural skin tone, for example: beige, solid, light brown or even peach. With the help of a brush, the shadows blend up over the still eyelid to the eyebrows.
Step 2: between the mobile and stationary eyelids, we apply shadows of a darker shade with a red or bronze undertone. This is the main element of the cut crease technique. The line also needs to be shaded slightly up and down to create a smoother transition. It is important not to overlap the existing base with the new color.
Step 3: over the drawn line we put the shadows on the tone darker than the previous ones. This is necessary for greater effect. Do not need to shade them. Also add a little light shade of beige shade or with golden nuance under the fold of the eyebrows.
Step 4: With the help of shimmering translucent shadows, we select a mobile eyelid. Despite the fact that the makeup is designed for a weekday, such an element will not spoil it and will not overload it, but will only give the look the necessary shine.
Step 5: we paint over eyelashes with black or dark brown ink. If a girl is going on a date, then you can supplement it with ordinary arrows, suitable for the shape of the eyes and face.
Lipstick for lips under such makeup is selected in nude shades and can be:
- Peach;
- Champagne colors;
- Pale pink;
- Light brown;
- Coral.
It is better to choose lipstick with a liquid texture or vice versa matte. Pearlescent nuances on the lips in this case will be inappropriate, especially in bright pink or purple hues.
For green eyes
It is quite difficult for owners of green eyes to choose a light and beautiful make-up for every day. This is due to the fact that the ideal gamut of shades for green-eyed girls is purple, able to emphasize the brightness of the look, but not the only one.
Warm shades of shadows are suitable for everyday makeup for green eyes:
- Peach;
- Copper;
- Bronze;
- Coffee with milk;
- Golden;
- Pearl.
Blush for the face is better to choose a peach or pale pink. Mascara is a classic black color, and arrows - green, especially in combination with nude makeup.
The favorite technique of most make-up artists - Smokey Ice, made in golden tones will help to create a bright, but not vulgar makeup for green eyes.
The Smokey Ace technique is also called “smoky” because it consists in creating a smooth transition from bright nuances to dark ones from the inner corner of the eyes to the outer. Green-eyed girls are perfect palette: beige, golden-brown. When creating such makeup, follow the instructions.
Step 1: training. On the eyelid, apply beige or flesh shades and carefully blend. Shadows can be replaced with a dry concealer, which will not only give the desired tone, but also hide the possible imperfections of the skin.
Then, using a narrow brush along the lower eyelid from the middle of the outer corner of the eye, draw a thin line with brown shadows, bending the corner upwards.
Step 2: applying shadows. Closer to the inner corner of the eye we apply golden shadows, increasing the amount by the middle of the century. At the outer corner, add dark shadows with a bronze tint from the same palette. Repeat the application of shadows on the lower eyelid.
Step 3: feathering With a medium-sized brush and soft nap, gently blend the shadows together for a smooth transition. Repeat the procedure with the edges of the shadows. Add a bit of dark bronze to the lower eyelid, slightly drawing a narrow line.
Step 4: the design of the eyelashes and lips. Black ink stained upper and lower lashes. Then remove the remnants of the shadows with a brush. For a bronze smokey ice lipstick suitable for lips in a warm range:
- Beige;
- Peach;
- Champagne;
- Light brown
Despite the unusual color scheme, this makeup is quite relevant for everyday affairs. It perfectly emphasizes the green shade of the eyes, looks neat and at the same time not overloaded with additional elements, like the evening one.
For gray eyes
Gray eye color - one of the rarest. It includes various shades: blue, green, blue, sometimes even brown. That is why the choice of shades for the makeup of gray eyes is quite extensive, in particular, including orange undertones:
- Cool brown;
- Taupe;
- Melon;
- Salmon;
- Copper;
- Wine.
However, for daytime makeup of gray eyes it is better to choose low-key shades of shadows or nudes with a red tint. The peach color is considered to be a universal color for make-up of the face, and relief and cut crease will look most beneficial from the techniques.
The classic version of the cut crease technique is to separate the mobile and stationary century with an expressively delineated line. In this case, the upper part is smoky, and the bottom - clear. This effect can be created with the help of shadows or even dry concealers.
Everyday cut crease can be done in three simple steps.
Step 1: on the eyelid, apply the main color, a tone or two darker than the natural skin tone. Experts advise to leave unstained a small strip above the eyelash growth line.
Step 2: we put dark shadows on a fold and a motionless eyelid. The color should be with warm nuances, preferably peach or brown with an orange subtone. Shadows should extend beyond the outer corner of the eye.
Step 3: we put light shadows on a mobile eyelid. Instead of light, beige or skin shadows, you can use concealer, which coincides with the skin tone, to give the image a natural look. Shadows draw a straight line over the eyelid, without blending. The line should be smooth and clear.
Step 4: we paint over eyelashes. This should be done carefully from the very base of the growth of eyelashes. For such make-up it is better to use dark brown mascara, but in no case is it light or black. It is also better to avoid colored mascara or bright eyeliner.
