Visiting make-up artist Arina Artemova told how to apply glitter to lips and eyelids correctly, and advised her favorite products for perfect eyelashes and actual “metallic” make-up.
Glitter
Glitter on the lips is already a tradition for the New Year's party. Make Up For Ever has a very wide range of shades. Contour the lips with a pencil to give them a nice symmetrical shape, then apply balm and glitter on the lips with your fingertips. Loose particles can be easily removed with an eyebrow brush or tape.
To keep the glitter on your lips longer, use a special base or cover the glitter with a sheer, dense gloss. For example, "liquid glass" from M. A. C.
terra and all kinds of mica can be applied to the eyelids. Determine the area of application yourself: you can "paint over" the entire eyelid with them, or you can make an arrow. The latter are convenient to paint with glitter eyeliner from Urban Decay.
Berry shades on lips
d-favorite of this season! Use a variety of shades, from warm wine to cold plum. Dior has very comfortable matte and long-lasting lipsticks. The main advantage is that they do not dry out.
1960s
kt spider legs, deliberate and catchy! Define the shape of the eye with a basic shade of shadows, paint the lash line with a black liner and add sweeping lines from the growth of the eyelashes to the eyebrows, they should be chaotic, but not far beyond the "shape". Look for my favorite ultra black liner from Tom Ford. I recommend the Illamasqua brand to lovers of gel eyeliners.
Nude with emphasis on the eyes or lips
To achieve this effect, you need good preliminary care. First moisturize your skin (Kiehl's Ultra Facial is a great all-round cream), then apply some cream under the eyes (Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado - oily and instantly "revives").
If you do not want to feel the tone on yourself, use BB cream, I am in love with the gold and silver beauty balm from Dr. Jart +, it adjusts to the skin tone and is completely weightless.
Choose for yourself, you can make eyelashes of an unusual shape, now there are a lot of false options! Another idea: a monochrome accent in the form of blush and lipstick in the same shade.
Metallic shadows
My favorite trend! This time we are not talking about translucent shadows and textures, but about saturated shades. Apply metallic eyeshadow widely over the entire eyelid.
To give them strength and saturation, mix the eyeshadow with a fixative such as M. A. C and apply with a damp brush. Nars has chic metallic eyeshadows - they are ultra pigmented.
Contrasts
Faces (and not only) shades can be applied in contrast. Use 2-3 colors to highlight your eye color.
Arrows
lki is the main trend of the next season. If black arrows seem boring to you, go for colored arrows! A good range of shades can be found at Inglot. If they are too bright for you, try Dolce & Gabbana liners. Their colors go from black to emerald and blue. And the line also has a chic gold eyeliner.
Natural eyebrows
about drawn and deliberately wide eyebrows are not so relevant now. Use clear styling gels. The trend is to keep eyebrows of the width and shade that nature gave you.
Radiance
Play with the glow on your skin. Stir in a couple of drops of highlighter to match and apply on face, avoiding the T-zone, and leave the remaining areas matte. Metallic shine can be applied to cheekbones and eyes. I found very pigmented liquid highlighters from the Cover FX brand.
