Ретро
Ретро-макияж очень схож с голливудским. Разница между данными техниками заключается в форме стрелок. Для ретро мейкапа идеальный вариант - базовая чёрная стрелка без уголка, дополненная цветовым акцентом на складке века. Данный приём позволяет визуально увеличить глаза.
Ещё одна особенность макияжа в технике «ретро» - густые ресницы. Наиболее простой способ добиться такого эффекта - тщательная прорисовка по линии роста ресниц. Некоторые визажисты даже рекомендуют прорисовывать дополнительно нижние реснички под веком.
Последнее и не менее важное правило мейкапа в стиле ретро - яркая помада. В качестве основы на губы можно наносить праймер, румяна или затемнять их карандашом. Лучшие варианты губной помады для техники «ретро»:
- Фиолетовая;
- Бордовая;
- Каштановый;
- Розово-лиловый;
- Тёмно-сиреневый.
Красиво будет смотреться градиентный макияж губ, при этом светлые тона необходимо наносить на середину, а тёмные ближе к уголкам. Также для яркости визажисты советуют добавлять немного обычного блеска в центр губ, легонько растушёвывая.
Птичье крыло
Для визуального увеличения глаз и изменения их формы зачастую прибегают к технике «птичье крыло» или «птичка». Заключается данная техника в нанесении теней за пределы века с поднятым углом ко внешнему кончику бровей.
Птичье крыло зачастую украшают половинчатыми стрелками, что помогает «распахнуть» взгляд и сделать его более глубоким. Из цветов теней наиболее актуальными являются:
- Brown;
- Бронзовый;
- Мокрый асфальт;
- Чёрный или графитный;
- Violet;
- Красный.
На внутренний уголок глаза обязательно добавляют светлые тени: бежевый, палевые жёлтые, шампань или белые. Ресницы прокрашивают исключительно чёрной тушью, но только верхние, не затрагивая нижний ряд.
Помады, подходящие к птичьему крылу, выбирают в соответствии с оттенком теней. Универсальным вариантом являются нюдовые тона с кремовой текстурой или нежно-розовые градиентные варианты. Блеск для губ или тинт теряется на фоне насыщенного мейкапа.
Независимо от выбранной техники нанесения теней, макияж должен соответствовать назначению и выполнять его следует исключительно в тех цветах, что подходят ко времени суток и сезону. Также нужно помнить о соответствии образа причёске и наряду.
