How to make smokey ice makeup: step by step
Doing makeup in the style of smokey ice does not require a visit to beauty salons. It is quite possible to do it yourself. You just need to practice a little.
Let's first figure out how to do the classic smoky ice. To do it, prepare the following:
- Concealer for masking skin imperfections.
- Powder for removing shine from the skin.
- Concealer.
- Black cosmetic eyeliner pencil.
- Base for applying eyeshadows. With it, the shadows will fall flat, will not roll down and gather in a fold.
- Three shades of shadows (black or dark gray, light and an intermediate shade between them).
- Black ink.
- The brush with which we will apply the shadows, as well as the makeup sponge.
- The first thing we need is an even skin tone. To do this, we mask all pimples, spots and other imperfections with a corrector.
- Now apply on top with a sponge or just with your fingers. concealer... We finish everything with the application of powder.
- We start to paint our eyes. Put the base under the eyeshadow on the upper eyelids.
- Now we focus on the eyes, for this we take a black pencil and use it for eyeliner. Draw the line as close to the lash line as possible on both the upper and lower eyelids. When you draw out the outer corner of the eye, point the "arrow" up. Use a brush to blend the line drawn by the pencil.
- Now we take the darkest shade shadows and apply it to the movable upper eyelid. With the same shade, we emphasize the crease of the eyelid.
- Apply a lighter shade a little higher. And apply the lightest tone on part of the eyelid from the eyebrows down to the crease. Blend all the borders of the sections well to get a smooth transition.
- We complete the eye makeup with mascara. Paint it all well eyelashes, pay special attention to the lashes at the outer corners of the eye.
This makeup option is perfect for an evening look. But for every day, you can use lighter makeup in the same technique.
Cover the movable and lower eyelid with shadows of a dark gray tone. To add depth to the look, accentuate the crease on the eyelid with dark brown matte eyeshadow and blend well so that there are no clear transitions. Accent the center of the upper and lower eyelids with silver eyeshadow.
Now take a black pencil and draw a mucous membrane with it. Use coral shades to dot the inner corners of the eyes. Use black mascara for lashes.
