“You may not be a makeup artist, but you must draw eyebrows.” So ironically reformulating the quote of the famous Russian writer N. A. Nekrasov, one can express modern makeup trends. Not a single make up will look harmonious and attractive if the eyebrows are incorrectly underlined or even worse - not let down at all. Today on the agenda are beautiful eyebrows for brunettes, or rather, aspects of correctly determining the right color and shape for girls with dark hair.
The form
Each type of face has its own perfect eyebrow shape. To create it at home, you need to do just a few manipulations. We will describe how to draw a perfect shape with a pencil step by step. By following the guidelines below, you can always look perfect.
First, divide the brow arches into three conditional parts: start, peak and end. To correctly distinguish between these areas, take a pencil (or brush), attach it parallel to the nose starting from the wing.
The point the pencil will point to should be the beginning of the eyebrow.
Next, attach one end of the same pencil to the center of the chin, and position the rod so that it passes through the pupil of the eye (eyes should look straight ahead at this moment). The point that the other end of the pencil points to will be the peak of your brow arc, that is, its highest point. The same pencil will help you determine the end point of the eyebrow, directed from the arc of the nose directly through the outer corner of the eyelid.
So, there are three main points. Now we begin to draw an eyebrow arch.Remember that its beginning should not be too dark, on the contrary, this part should be as light as possible compared with the other two parts. But the ending should be the darkest part. The tail of the eyebrow arc should be drawn with great care: starting from the peak of the arc, the line should gradually come to naught, and the end of the eyebrow should not be thick, gradually the eyebrow at its end should become thinner and thinner.
Modern modeling techniques
The most common and proven way to model eyebrows is to color them with a pencil, lipstick, or eye shadow. However, the disadvantage of this procedure is its frequency.
Choosing this method, you will be forced to do the same manipulations dailyand sometimes even several times a day. It is for this reason that some girls resort to such types of techniques that provide a shade for a longer period.
You do not need to be afraid of these manipulations if you choose the right color.
Tattoo
This permanent makeup technique is familiar to many girls. It is worth noting that some makeup artists are categorical opponents of this procedure, as they believe that the classic tattoo on the eyebrows looks extremely unnatural and unnatural.
In addition, there is always the risk of a wrong shade, which is subsequently extremely difficult to fix, because it is essentially the same tattoo. There are several alternatives that have replaced the classic tattoo. They give the most natural effect. These are microblading and powdery eyebrows.
Microblading
Microblading is also known as 6d tattooing. The effect of this procedure is more natural. Manual tattooing here differs from the usual version: the effect of artificial hairs is created, the eyebrows in the end look more thick.
The procedure is carried out by a specialist manually using a blade, the paint is introduced only into the surface layers of the epidermis.
The so-called powdery eyebrows are also the result of a tattoo technique that is softer and not as painful as classic tattooing. Ultimately, the eyebrows are quite light, but voluminous.
It seems that they were let down with a light pencil or tinted with delicate shadows. This type of staining is hardly suitable for brunettes. But for blondes - this is exactly what the makeup artist ordered.
Color
Having decided on the aforementioned modeling techniques, it is very important to determine the color for tattooing, because its effect will last more than one day or even a week. It's no secret that the shade of eyebrows should be selected based on skin tone and hair color. At the same time, do not forget about eye color. It also plays an important role in creating a harmonious look. Considering the recommendations of makeup artists, it can be noted that it is not so difficult to choose the color of eyebrows. Most of them agree on one thing: the shade should be a tone or two darker than the hair. However, this rule does not apply to girls with dark hair. Here you need to do everything exactly the opposite: a tone lighter than hair.
The black color of eyebrows can harmoniously look only in girls with blue-black hair and dark skin, whose appearance is close to gypsy in type.
Other owners of black hair should give preference to dark brown and chocolate shades. Especially attractive are such options for brown-eyed girls. Beauties with green eyes are recommended to give preference to graphite or dark gray tones. However, such options are contraindicated in brunettes with gray eyes. “Wet asphalt” will be ideal for them. The dark blue eyes of dark-haired girls look great with eyebrows in the shade of “dark graphite”. Naturally, brunettes are out of the question about light brows.
