Eyebrow makeup tips and fake Eyelashes
There are many brow makeup products in the market, which help one groom, condition, enhance the look of the eyebrows and highlight the eyes.
Ways to add eye shadows for appealing eyebrows
- Among the easiest ways to fill a eyebrow is to use powder eye shadows in shades that closely match eyebrow color. A soft-textured matte powder is best when applied with delicate strokes of a wedge brush or thin, liner brush, starting from the center of the brow, working outward toward brow tip. After this, the strokes must be directed back toward the beginning of the brow, all the while using short, light strokes between the brow hairs. For stronger color, extra pressure is applied when defining the underside of the eye brow.
- Eyebrow pencils with a smooth, light texture and soft, dry finish are good for filling in eyebrows and give them a natural look too, while defining their shape. A thin tip eyebrow pencil allows for precision application between and beneath brow hairs and enhances beauty.
- Eyebrow plucking should ideally be timed just before hitting the sack as the sleep time that follows allows any subsequent redness to disappear overnight. Slant edge tweezers, which grip hairs easily, are best for shaping brows while combing hairs one way, then the other, helps remove loose strands.
- Eyebrow definers close to the natural hair color shade of a person are suitable for a natural look. The eye pencil used needs to be applied in small, feathered strokes, beginning at the inner corners and working outwards with colors blended in with a brush.
fake eyelashes: makeup tips
Fake eyelashes are made of either artificial or natural hair. The synthetic fake eyelashes are suitable for cosmetic purposes while the natural hair ones are generally used for medical supplementation in case of eyelash loss due to ill health.
- There are full and individual fake eyelashes available; the former give a glamorous look to the face while the individual ones are aimed at a natural, feminine look and are used in the exterior of the eyes to give a sensual sweep to the natural lashes.
- Colored fake eyelashes give a dramatic and vibrant appearance to the eyes and when brushed with mascara, do up deep black and brown eyes in a mesmerizing way.
How to apply fake eyelashes: tips and techniques
- Most packets of fake lashes come with specific instructions. However, the first step is always to review the length of the lashes by putting them close to the natural ones and trimming with scissors. The face and eyes need to be covered smoothly with foundation and concealer with the person, preferably, standing before a magnifier mirror. Small amounts of glue are dotted in the position of the fake lashes, which may take a few seconds to dry. The fake eyelashes, maneuvered onto the natural lash line, can be further adjusted with fingertips, tweezers or a toothpick.
