What fashionable makeup options do makeup artists offer this year? How to choose the right make-up for the owners of blue, brown, green and gray eyes, step by step instructions. Prom makeup is a responsible choice for many girls. After all, a well-chosen make-up can harmoniously complement a beautiful outfit and help create a complete image of a graduate. In 2017, the main trend is naturalness and naturalness. And how to create a truly royal image at the same time, we will consider further.
Fashion makeup trends for prom in 2017
In 2017, world stylists and makeup artists offer graduates to opt for natural makeup. First, naturalness is back in fashion. Secondly, just such a make-up will perfectly emphasize the charm of young girls at a solemn event.
The main condition of makeup for prom 2017 is that it should not age a young beauty. Many make-up options are designed for adult women and emphasize their dignity, mature beauty. Therefore, before opting for a particular makeup, it is recommended to experiment to choose the one that suits you.
In addition, when choosing a make-up, of course, you should pay attention to the features of the outfit, its color, fabric, hair, eyes and skin color. Best of all, a professional makeup artist or stylist will cope with the choice of a suitable make-up. But if you show ingenuity and take into account all the subtleties, then it is quite possible to solve this problem on your own.
It is important to take into account the basic rules of make-up. The focus is on the lips or eyes. If you have picked up a wonderful bright lipstick to match the color of your prom dress, then it is enough to slightly emphasize the eyes - make graceful arrows and stick fake eyelashes on the outer corner of the eyelid. If you decide to focus on the eyes, for example, smokey ice suits you, then the lipstick should be neutral in color and not too flashy. It should be remembered that makeup is the last step in creating a complete look. You need to choose a fashionable make-up for a specific dress and hairstyle. If you want bright colored makeup, then it is recommended to perform it in 2-3 shades. Moreover, they should be in approximately the same color palette. Alternatively, you can apply a darker shade of shadows to the outer corner of the eyelid, a lighter shade to the movable part, and the lightest one - under the eyebrow and in the inner corner of the eye. And to complete the look, it is enough to draw a thin arrow along the line of growth of the eyelashes and paint them with mascara. In addition, you should remember the universal rules of good makeup:
- Perfect skin condition … Try to provide your skin with more thorough care for the next month before graduation. If possible, go for a professional facial cleansing to a beautician, take a course of masks. If you have a problematic dermis, then corrective decorative means will help to solve this deficiency.
- Good dream … Be sure to sleep well before the celebration. Your skin will look refreshed and your eyes refreshed. Remember that no cosmetic products can hide fatigue.
- Experiment with makeup beforehand … Don't leave this question to the last moment. As a rule, in a hurry it is not possible to apply a high-quality make-up. Moreover, in the pre-holiday bustle, there is hardly time to experiment with a shade of eyeshadow or lipstick.
How to do prom makeup for different eye colors
Graduation makeup is a responsible process that requires a careful approach. Consider the options for creating a make-up for girls with different shades of eyes.
Prom makeup for blue eyes
Blue eyes will look especially bright on the face if they are properly emphasized and highlighted. In holiday makeup for prom, you can safely use shadows that will contrast with the natural shade of the iris. Choose colors: milk chocolate, mocha, bronze, sand, peach, apricot, warm gray, marsh, lilac, lavender, plum, copper, orange, dark blue, yellow, steel.
Shimmers in a champagne shade are also well suited for solemn make-up. Many fashion houses this season recommend that blue-eyed people use a light make-up with pastel shadows applied in a translucent layer. This makeup is able to create the necessary contrast and at the same time looks gentle and soft. If in makeup you want to "play" not with shades, but with lines, then feel free to opt for the arrows. However, not on the classic ones. For example, it is fashionable to use soft dark gray arrows, slightly scattered and shaded in eye makeup for prom. They will add depth to the look. White pearl shadows in the inner corner of the eye go well with such arrows. They will help to "highlight" the look and open it.
Another idea that trendy makeup artists have come up with this year for blue-eyed female graduates is not to accentuate the eyes at all. In this case, they will attract attention with their purity and cold transparency. The emphasis should be on the lips. For this, matte lipstick of a raspberry or cherry red shade is well suited, depending on the color type. Consider an example of a stylish make-up for blue-eyed:
- Preparing the face for applying cosmetics. We cleanse the skin with micellar water, soothe it with a tonic.
- Apply foundation. For this we use a flat brush with artificial hair. We shade the foundation carefully, erasing the boundaries of the transitions. For even tone, apply the product to the neck and ears, "stretching" it. This will avoid the "mask effect".
- We carry out face shape correction. If you need to visually reduce the area, apply a darker correcting powder or concealer on it. We use a brush with a beveled end for application. As a rule, the cheekbones, the lower part of the chin, and the temporal zone need treatment.
- We fix the tone with translucent powder. Apply it with a large round brush all over the face and neck.
- We begin to apply shadows. We take mother-of-pearl or pearl as a basis. For application we use a flat artificial brush. We process the entire upper movable eyelid and slightly shade the area under the eyebrow.
- Draw the lower eyelid with a dark gray pencil. We draw a line from the middle to the outer corner. Also draw a "loop" on the upper eyelid from the outer corner to the middle along the natural curve. Using a soft flat brush, feather the line and connect it.
- Fix the shaded pencil line with dark shadows. We also shade them well.
- Apply a pink or peach-colored watercolor pigment to the entire movable eyelid with a slightly damp artificial brush.
- The inner corner of the eye and under the eyebrow are additionally lightened with white shadows. To obtain a smooth gradient, carefully blend the borders of the transition of shades. We also paint over the lower eyelid with a pink shade so that the color from the middle of the eye goes parallel to the black line.
- We draw an arrow along the line of eyelash growth with a black liquid eyeliner. It should widen slightly from the inner to the outer corner of the eye.
- We paint over the eyelashes with black ink.
- If necessary, we emphasize the eyebrows with shadows, a pencil and fix it with a special fondant.
- We outline the lips along the contour with a soft pencil. Apply a lipstick or gloss of a natural shade with a brush. It should not be too bright, as we emphasized in the eye makeup.
If you want to make your prom makeup for blue eyes more expressive, you can add some highlighter to the prominent parts of the face - cheekbones, foreheads, chin.
Prom makeup for green eyes
If you have green eyes, you can experiment with any warm shades, especially brown ones. It can be both completely dark and creamy colors. Also use shades of gray and gold in your makeup. For prom, you can choose brighter shades for green eyes, such as turquoise, lilac, lavender, and even reds. Color eyeliners, which will look appropriate on young girls, are also relevant this season. Therefore, you can safely draw arrows not with a classic black eyeliner, but with a colored one. So, for green-eyed, emerald or purple arrows are suitable. If you do not want to do too bright makeup, then you can use brown or gray eyeliner. Consider an example of interesting prom makeup for green eyes:
- Preparing the skin. This is an indispensable step that will help create a protective layer on the face between the epidermis and makeup. We can use toner, milk and toning or moisturizing cream. We apply the funds and wait until they are completely absorbed. Remove the remains with a dry paper towel.
- Apply the foundation on the face. We use a special sponge or an artificial brush for this. We make sure that there are no clear boundaries and the face does not look like a mask.
- Powder the face with a light transparent powder to remove excess shine.
- Contouring the face using peach blush or dark powder.
- Correct the shape of the eyebrows if necessary. We use a brush made of artificial hair and shadow of a suitable shade (for the color type).
- Apply matte beige shadows to the entire upper eyelid and the area under the eyebrow. We do this in order to facilitate further feathering of all shadows.
- Using a thin flat brush, draw a “check mark” in the outer corner of the eye with dark brown shadows. This will be a definite reference point.
- Apply brown pearlescent shadows by hammering the brush into the outer part of the eyelid. At the same time, paint over our checkmark and smoothly stretch the shade towards the middle. Shade all the lines with a soft fluffy brush.
- Shade the inner corner of the eye and the area under the eyebrow with white pearlescent shadows.
- We make out the lower eyelid. Darken it with a brown tint. Next, we make a bright accent: in the middle we apply bright green or purple shadows. It is desirable that they are iridescent, with shimmers. At the same time, it is important not to paint over the line of the lower eyelid completely, but only to add a color accent.
- We also paint over the inner corner of the lower eyelid with light pearlescent shadows.
- With a soft black or brown pencil, we emphasize the corners of the eye along the mucous membrane. Paint over the middle of the lower eyelid with a bright color to match the shadows.
- Using a black or brown eyeliner, draw a clear thin arrow along the lash line on the upper eyelid.
- We paint over the eyelashes with black ink. If you wish, you can glue artificial eyelashes to the outer corner of the eye.
- We outline the lips with a contour pencil of a peach shade. Lightly powder them and apply lipstick in a delicate golden hue.
Prom makeup for brown eyes
The owners of brown eyes were more fortunate than others. After all, almost any shades in makeup suit them. However, this eye color is distinguished by a large number of shades. Therefore, it is recommended to select the most suitable color for decorative cosmetics for different shades. For very dark, almost black eyes, smoky ice makeup works well. It can be made in the following palettes: black, dark gray, chocolate, burgundy, plum. For not too dark brown eyes, shades of green, yellow, light brown, lilac, blue, blue, gray shades are suitable.
If you are the owner of light brown eyes, then choose golden, light silver, beige shades for yourself. Pay special attention to the choice of mascara. Brown eyes look beautiful framed by thick fluffy eyelashes. Therefore, choose black mascara that gives volume. Prom makeup for brown eyes can be done using the smokey ice technique. We do it according to the following instructions:
- Thoroughly cleanse the skin with micellar water and moisturize it with cream. We are especially careful with the area around the eyes, since this is where the main "work" lies ahead.
- Apply the foundation on the skin of the face. We use a corrector under the eyes, which has a denser structure to hide bruises.
- We accentuate the eyebrows. If you need a correction, use a pencil and a special fixing fondant.
- Apply a pearlescent base under the eyeshadow. Alternatively, you can apply a white pencil and carefully shade it so that the shadows do not subsequently crumble and do not lose brightness.
- Shade the area from the outer corner to the middle of the eyelid with a soft black pencil. We give the corners a little roundness.
- Using a soft fluffy natural hair brush, lighten the inner corner of the eye from below and above, smoothly "pull out" the color towards the middle of the eyelid.
- Apply graphite shadows from the outer corner to the middle of the movable eyelid. With a soft brush, blur the borders and joints in a circular motion.
- Darken the lower eyelid with a pencil. Slightly shade the line with shadows.
- Paint over the inner contour and corner of the eye with a black pencil. Add some light highlights under the eyebrow.
- Draw a black arrow along the lash line. It should expand towards the outer corner of the eye.
- Thoroughly paint over the eyelashes with black mascara. Bundles of artificial eyelashes glued on the outer corner of the eye will help to add expressiveness to the look.
- It is best to choose lipstick in a pastel shade to match the color of the outfit. It is not permissible to use lipstick of bright colors with such makeup, otherwise the make-up will look vulgar.
Graduation makeup for gray eyes
In the make-up of gray eyes, certain rules should be taken into account: cold shades will make them more gray, and warm ones will emphasize a blue note. Contrary to popular belief, in prom makeup for gray eyes, it is better not to use a blue pencil and shadows of the same shade. They cannot give expressiveness to the look, make it dimmer, deprive it of its natural depth. Peach, golden, sandy shades look good. And the pink palette is not recommended for gray eyes, as it will visually make them puffy and painful. It goes well with nude make-up with gray eyes. We carry it out with step-by-step instructions:
- We carefully treat the skin with tonic or micellar water. Apply moisturizer.
- Apply foundation. Makeup in the nude-face style requires a particularly careful tone, since it does not involve the use of bright shades and any skin flaw will be noticeable. Therefore, we try to achieve "porcelain" skin.
- Cover the face with a thin layer of loose transparent powder.
- Apply a thin layer of blush to the cheekbones.
- We emphasize the growth line of the eyebrows with a pencil of gray or brown-gray shades, depending on the color type.
- Apply beige satin shadows to the area of the upper movable eyelid. Spread the layer with a soft brush, achieving a perfectly even shade. It is recommended to use exactly the satin texture, since matte or pearlescent shadows do not allow achieving the "natural" effect in the make-up.
- Draw the arrows with a black soft pencil along the lash line on the upper and lower eyelids. We form a clear cut of the eye. We also draw along the zone of eyelash growth to achieve a rich contour. We try to draw so that the arrow is not clearly defined.
- At the outer corner of the eye, draw an arrow a few millimeters to the temple. We form such a tip from above and below, close the lines, achieving a beautiful almond-shaped eye shape.
- Shade the pencil lines with a soft brush. Helping with brown shadows.
- Below the arrow line along the lower eyelid, apply a small fuzzy strip of pastel shades of satin texture.
- We paint over the eyelashes with black ink. Ideally, you want to achieve the effect of additional volume.
- The lips can be made slightly brighter than the eyes. To do this, you can use lipstick or glitter berry shades that suit your color type. Don't forget to use a pencil to highlight the outline. The texture of the lipstick should also be satin or matte. Don't use glossy lip makeup.
