Look 10 years younger: the best eye makeup techniques that will instantly tighten your face
Eyeliner, mascara, and pencils or eyebrow shadows are versatile products that are indispensable for creating a flawless makeup look. They form the basis for classic makeup and help to emphasize natural beauty.
Makeup artists emphasize that several techniques for eye makeup can instantly tighten the face. Mandie Brice, a professional makeup artist and beauty specialist, and Natasha Moor, founder of the cosmetics brand, talked about the best life hacks for mature skin.
Apply eyeliner only to the upper eyelid
Eyeliner can instantly emphasize the eyes and make the look more expressive and attractive. For women over 50, makeup artists advise applying eyeliner only to the upper eyelid, drawing a minimalist line.
The method of application is very important. An excessively thick line applied evenly along the eyelid will create a tired effect, while a light line on the upper eyelid, slightly extending beyond the outer part, is ideal.
Another interesting tip is to add radiance. Using an illuminating highlighter in the inner corner visually makes the eyes look fresh and shiny.
The right eyebrow products
Makeup artists advise against using a rich eyebrow pencil in favor of cream or powder products.
"Eyebrows are more science than art, so if you want to create the perfect makeup, you should use geometry to find specific points and then fill them in," said Bris.
So it's better to use cream or powder because these products are easier to blend and look more natural. Please note that eyebrows should not be too dark – they should not contrast too much with hair color.
Wiggle & Lift mascara application technique
As it turns out, it's quite easy to create the illusion of an eyelid lift using just mascara. Experts advise that after you curl your lashes, look down and apply mascara as close to the waterline on the upper eyelid as possible.
It's also important to choose a mascara with the right brush for your lashes. It is worth lifting the lashes on the inner and outer corners of the eyes, as this will give the look more sophistication and expression. The technique called "mascara cocktailing" is also gaining popularity – it is the use of several brushes to give eyelashes extra volume, length, and definition.
