Close-set eyes: features and correction with makeup

Each woman is awarded by nature with unique data. It’s just scary to imagine a world in which absolutely everything is identical and similar to a single template ideal. But it is very characteristic for the fair sex to look for shortcomings among their external features, and even worry about them. Although adjusting the appearance with the help of competent use of cosmetics is not difficult at all. The article will discuss such an individual facial features as close-set eyes.

Before applying makeup, each woman should decide on her type and features of external features. Sometimes it’s not easy to determine exactly whether the position of the eyes is close. The ideal parameter is the gap between the eyes, equal to the width of the eye itself. With a close proximity, this distance is correspondingly less.

To determine your type, stand in front of the mirror and mentally try to draw two vertical lines from the corners of the eyes. This will be the width. The size of the nose bridge is determined by measuring the distance from the inner corners of the eye sockets. Visually compare these indicators. If the width of the bridge of the nose differs from the parameters of the eye contours in a smaller direction, this is a clear sign of closely located eyes.

Often, because of this feature, the eyes of women look small in size. This is especially true for eye contours that are round in shape. At the same time, the gaze seems to deepen and it seems that the person is looking as if from underneath.However, in the case of the correct selection of the colors of the makeup and the knowledge of some of the secrets of applying it with a similar facial feature, you can easily adjust your appearance.

Next you will find a step-by-step explanation of how to apply classic daily and evening makeup.

To begin with, you should even out your complexion with foundation and powder.

After that, you can begin to apply eye shadow. The first to apply dark shades on the outer corners of the eyelids. Brush movements are neat and short, pointing up. Thus, the eye contours will visually stretch to the outer edges.

Shade the shadows well. You can also use a soft pencil for external contours.

The next step is to apply shadow on the inner corners. The task here is to highlight them in tone. Thus, the edges visually move slightly away from the nose. For this zone, select the lightest shades of the shadows.

At the final stage, you need to make up eyelashes and make eyebrows.

Apply a light foundation on the upper eyelids. A beige or pale pink hue is best. From the middle of the century to the outer corners, draw a line with a pencil along the line of the base of the cilia.

The fold above the upper eyelid at the outer edge of the eye should also be darkened with shadows. Well blend the applied shadows and the strip from the pencil closer to the corners.

The final touch is the drawing of an arrow. She must be thin and elegant. A dark eyeliner is used to draw it.

However, you can do without it, if, in your opinion, the makeup is already somewhat overloaded.

Since the basic rule for proper makeup and eyeliner for close-set eyes is to darken the outer corners, arrows are often used to create the image of the owners of this type.

The so-called retro style is very popular and original. The emphasis on the eyes is enhanced by the fact that the lips remain dim. With an eyeliner or a very thin pencil, you need to draw arrows at the external contours. Long arrows visually stretch your eyes.

An additional effect will help to create a more dense coloring of the eyelashes from the outside. After applying the main layer of mascara, an additional layer is applied to the cilia at the outer corners of the eyes, which will make a darker emphasis on this area.

Also, using the arrow, you can adjust the too rounded shape of the eye contour. To do this, draw a clear arrow, which will protrude beyond the eyelid by about a centimeter. If everyday makeup is applied, it is better not to do the arrows longer than 0.5 cm.

To properly use makeup and apply makeup that is suitable for your type, you need to remember a few simple tips and recommendations of professional makeup artists.

• Owners of closely set eyes should remember the most suitable corrective makeup scheme. It consists in the fact that the inner corners are lightened with shadows or a pencil, while the outer corners, on the contrary, are obscured. The border of lightening and darkening should be selected individually. For example, the rounder the eyes, the longer the dark area should be. Since in this case, the goal will be to narrow and extend the eye contours to the outer edges.
• Dark shadows or pencil should be shaded only near the outer corners. In the middle of the century, the line should remain quite thin.

• Black or dark eyeliner should not be continuous throughout the eyelid. This applies to both the lower and upper eyeliner.
• For added emphasis, you can use false eyelashes or their extensions on the outer edges of the eyelid.Cilia are attached approximately from the middle to the edge of the upper eyelid.

• Eyebrows play an important role in the visual perception of the gaze. For a nearby type, it is best to use the extension of the outer tail of the eyebrow using pencil drawing. Eyebrows should be made thinner. Light and light brown eyebrows do not need to bring a black or very dark pencil.
• Cream shadows are not very convenient to use. Many of them tend to slide into small lumps and make the tone of the eyelid uneven.
• Peach and turquoise shades should be applied in moderation. Superimposed too thick, they can create the illusion of sick, tired and swollen eyes.

You should also touch on the theme of the most suitable shades of shadow. The selection of colors depends very much on the shade of the eyes themselves, as well as the size and shape of the contour.

• Under the green color of the iris shades of shades that are close to copper and light brown are perfect. Also, the natural color of the eyes can be emphasized by using a small amount of shades of green, but not too bright.
• For brown eyes dark brown, chocolate and light beige shades should be included in the make-up. Black eyeliner will make the look especially expressive. Classic blue and purple shades are also acceptable for brown-eyed girls and women.

• To the eyes of cold shades (gray, blue) should select shadows of a similar cold spectrum. Shades with a metallic sheen look good on the eyelids of blue-eyed and gray-eyed girls.
• For small close-set eyes it is better to use more natural and light colors and do not overdo it with eyeliner. Since excessive darkening of the eyelids will further reduce the eyes visually.

If you look very, very carefully, mentally removing the effect of makeup, you can see that no celebrity is the owner of an absolutely perfect face. Individual characteristics obtained from nature are simply correctly emphasized and harmoniously adjusted with cosmetics. So, each girl and woman can learn the rules of applying makeup for their type of face and use them when creating their own image. The result will be a beautiful appearance that will delight both your beloved and those around you.
