Like Cleopatra and Marilyn Monroe: types of arrows that never go out of style
Makeup with arrows has long ceased to be exclusively evening. Now girls draw them at any time of the day, and rightly so! Arrows create a seductive look and feline eyes.
A professional make-up artist told us which arrows are and will always be relevant. Take note!
Ancient Egypt
For the first time, it was the Egyptians who came up with the idea of drawing arrows. By the way, 2,000 years ago they were painted by everyone, including men. The makeup was of a religious nature. With the help of eyeliner, the inhabitants of Ancient Egypt painted "cat" eyes - this animal, as we know, they worshiped.
Previously, clay, henna and river silt were used to create an eyeliner, which were mixed with each other. Today, stores have eyeliner for every taste, so you don't have to spend time creating it.
Classic
The neat little hands are suitable for both daytime and evening makeup. In the classic version, they emphasize the lash line, so you don't even need to paint them with mascara.
How to draw? It's simple. Paint over the lash line with black pencil, and on the moving eyelid, draw a line with an eyeliner and make a small corner. The arrows are ready!
For reference: sometimes it is not easy to draw neat arrows. To do this, use a pencil to create an outline.
Oriental
The girls of the East cover their faces, but not completely. The eyes remain open, on which they focus. Surprisingly, oriental arrows are suitable for girls with both European and exotic looks.
Admirers of oriental arrows usually draw them with antimony (you can buy such a pencil in a store). To repeat the arrows, you need to paint over the outline under the eyelashes on the upper and lower eyelids well. The tip of the arrow should be long and aim towards the temples.
In the style of Marilyn Monroe
The image of Marilyn Monroe has become a cult, it is not surprising that many are trying to repeat it. In addition to voluminous white curls and bright lips, the actress's trick was the arrows that continue the natural line of the eyelid.
To create such arrows, carefully draw the upper contour of the eyelashes with eyeliner, slightly lift and sharpen the tip.
