Varieties of white makeup

There are many types of white makeup using various cosmetics.

With white eyeliner

This eyeliner is suitable for any eyes, appropriate for everyday and formal make-up. She is capable of:

  • Enlarge the eyes, make them brighter (a line is drawn along the contour of the eyes). If the skin is dark, in order to avoid a sharp contrast, a black pencil is additionally used (on both eyelids along the lash line).

  • Hide signs of fatigue (glare whitens the inner corners of the eyes).
Liner on inner corners
  • Create the effect of voluminous eyelashes (eyeliner along the inside of the lower eyelid).

with white arrows

In everyday makeup, an arrow is used, starting from the inner corner of the eye or from the middle of the eyelid and slightly raised upwards. For special occasions, they come up with something more refined.

Arrows give the look clarity and beauty. They are not suitable for those with narrow eyes and are a good option for those with round or close to each other eyes.

With white eyeliner

The pencil performs the same functions as the eyeliner. It also helps:

  • Soften shades of shadows, transitions from color to color (apply to the desired part of the eyelid over the shadows and blend).
  • Enlarge lips (highlight the checkmark on the upper lip).

Only the creation of beautiful, correct lines leads to the desired result. This is possible if the rod is well sharpened, and the line is drawn without stopping, as close to the eyelashes as possible.

With white shadows

White shades are suitable for everyone. They look especially interesting with blue or gray eyes. Pure white shadows are emphasized with black.

Their use gives:

  • Eyebrow shaping.
  • The effect of increasing the size of the eyes when applied to the inner corners and drawing a thin arrow to the eyelid. At the same time, close or wide planting of the eyes is also corrected.
  • Softening the color of too bright shadows (it is enough to apply a little white on top of them).
  • Skin smoothing when applied under powder or cream.
  • Correction of the oval and facial features (applied to the cheekbones).

With white ink

This mascara has the following effects:

  • lengthens eyelashes, adds volume;
  • makes eyes brighter;
  • creates contrast with other eye products;
  • looks perfect in makeup, made in cold colors;
  • used as a basis for other colors, making them more expressive;
  • used to fix sequins.

Completely white eyelashes make the face look paler, less expressive. Usually, black or brown mascara is applied first, and then a white edge is made.

With white sequins

Sequins make the features more expressive, the image is more interesting. They are applied to different parts of the face (the T zone is excluded) in bulk without clear boundaries. Using glitter on several parts of the face at once is a bad form.

On weekdays, they are used in a minimal amount. During the holidays, you can let your imagination run wild. It is permissible to mix sequins of white and other colors.

With white glitter

White glitter is used for day and evening make-up. It is applied on the eyelids, in the corners of the eyes, on the arrows, lips, various parts of the face in a continuous layer or pointwise.

The daily option involves moderate use of glitter. Festive makeup requires more. Images using the tool are distinguished by extravagance, originality, attractiveness.

What is not allowed in white makeup?

White makeup loses all its charm if done carelessly. There should not be too much white in general and in individual zones, otherwise there is a risk of getting an undesirable effect. For example, when applying a lot of white under the eyes, this area looks puffy.

Skillfully applied white makeup can advantageously transform the appearance. You will always look great if you master the techniques of using its products. This is a wonderful find for those who like to fantasize and move away from stereotypes.
