How to draw matte eye shadow?

Eye shadow is a must-have cosmetic for many women. Many of them prefer matte eye shadow to pearlescent eye shadow, but many people don't know how to draw matte eye shadow when using it. So what is the best way to draw matte eye shadow? What are the specific steps of matte eye shadow painting? What good eye shadows are there?

1, how to draw matte eye shadow?

Step 1: Take matte brown eye shadow cream with your fingers and apply the whole eyelid from the middle of the eyelid near the root of eyelashes.

Step 2: Choose an eye shadow that is darker than the brown eye shadow, and apply it to the folds of double eyelids with the larger end of the eye shadow stick.

Step 3: Then use the eye shadow tray of the previous step and draw eyeliner near the root of eyelashes with the small end of the eye shadow stick.

Step 4: Brush the upper and lower eyelashes, apply natural false eyelashes, and then brush the mascara again to make the true and false eyelashes fit better.

2, matte eye shadow building steps

Before it's too late, let's start at once!

Texture of eye shadow: matte

What are the textures of eye shadow? Everyone's classification may be different. For convenience, we can now roughly divide it into matte, pearlescent and sequined. First of all, matte eye shadow. Matte eye shadow refers to those eye shadows that basically have no sequins or pearls. Just find a few examples:

▲ Matte eye shadow tray is generally like this.

▲ The color test display of matte eye shadow tray basically does not flash, and it is low-key and restrained.

Generally speaking, matte eye shadow will feel drier than the other two eye shadows. Relatively speaking, coloring is better and it is not easy to smudge. Because the particles of pearlescent and sequins are generally slightly thicker than colored powder, matte eye shadow is generally more delicate. In contrast, matte eye shadow also tests the material of eye shadow. If you want to buy a plate of pearl eye shadow or sequined eye shadow, open-shelf products within 100 yuan may have a good effect. But if you are going to buy matte eye shadow, you'd better reserve more budget. Of course, the charm of matte eye shadow is not here. None of the above advantages is as good as one: because it doesn't flash or stand out, many girls with swollen eyelids take matte eye shadow as the first item!

However, although many ingenious girls can smudge the matte eye shadow beautifully, many girls with swollen eyelids find that after using the legendary super matte eye shadow, the effect is like:

▲ being beaten by people

Why is this happening? In fact, it is determined by its own texture. Because of the texture, matte eye shadow is more difficult to smudge than other eye shadows. Therefore, if you want to use matte eye shadow, you'd better allocate some budget to buy a small eye shadow brush instead of relying on a sponge or fingers-this lazy method may be no problem for other eye shadows, but for matte eye shadow, it is easy to become uneven and become a lump. In short, you can see from your eye makeup that you are using eye shadow on your fingers, because finger prints are difficult to remove.

In addition, this texture also determines the higher requirements for users' blooming skills. Therefore, if your eye stereo is average (the eye socket is not very deep) and your smudging skills are not very good, it is recommended to start with a slightly shiny pearlescent eye shadow.

You may have noticed that I mentioned "the stereoscopic degree of eyes is average", and then you may say, what does this have to do with the choice of eye shadow texture? The main reason is that matte eye shadow is easier to color than other eye shadows, and the color is generally heavier. According to our last issue, the deeper the eye socket, the more harmonious it is to use deep eye shadow. On the contrary, if the stereoscopic degree of the eyes is average, the effect will be more unnatural if the eye shadow painting deliberately emphasizes color.

▲ People whose eye sockets are not deep are not as deep as possible!

Therefore, if your eye condition is average, or as mentioned above, it is a small white with poor blooming skills, then I suggest you use matte eye shadow in the following ways:

▲ Use lighter and more transparent colors, which are basically deeper than eyelids. As a base makeup, you can create a natural makeup.

▲ Dark matte discs can be used locally to create a sense of depth (click on the big picture to see some dotted lines on the left, which can be enhanced with matte eye shadow.

▲ In addition, because matte eye shadow is more difficult to smudge than pearlescent, it is also a good substitute for eye shadow eyeliner, which can be used to draw the end of the eye or the lower eyeliner.

▲ Of course, if you have a single eyelid/inner double eyelid/narrow outer double eyelid, you can apply it in a small area with matte eye shadow. It is suggested that the width of double eyelids should not exceed too much, and the single eyelid is slightly exposed under normal conditions (for example, 1-2mm).

In short, the secret of matte eye shadow is small area and light color. Want to challenge some difficult moves, practice smudging well!

(PS。 Personal experience that is not necessarily reliable at all: Because matte eye shadow is dry and difficult to push away, it is not recommended to use the "oil control" function before matte eye shadow, which will increase the difficulty of blooming. )

Matte eye makeup

Of course, the tutorial is not over yet. How can you not talk about your favorite eye makeup after putting on makeup? Last time I said the simplest monochrome painting, the students' response was not generally strong. This shows how much you love my course. If you have learned the monochrome drawing of eye shadow from the last tutorial, I will continue to give you strength today and teach you to draw the simplest two-color smudge. I guarantee that this method is the simplest and simplest. It is also easy for all students to master. Read carefully and slowly. Ensure that all students can learn. I like to clip my eyelashes properly before applying eye makeup. From the root to the top of my eyelashes, I will clip my eyelashes in three sections without worrying about falling off. Students who have difficulty clamping their eyes and eyelashes can use the local eyelash curler, which is very, very easy to use. You can clip eyelashes at the end of your eyes. I don't know why some people say that local eyelash curlers are not easy to use, or that not using them and not using them are two different things. Anyway ~ ~ is still this sentence, choosing what suits you is king!

This time, I drew my eyebrows first, hoping that the close-up of my eyes would be more stereoscopic, but it seems that there is no difference. Alas ~ there is no professional equipment, no professional photographer, and the photos are all drawn and taken by themselves. Is it easy for me? I-_ _ _-! Students, please give me a lot of support and give me the motivation to write a more powerful tutorial ~ a little off topic. Return to return ~ those who can't draw eyebrows can refer to the previous thrush tutorial!

This time, the eye supplies are basically these. I painted two makeup in the same way. Students should look at more examples to learn better ~ isn't it ~ hee hee ~

Last time I used eye shadow cream with sequins, this time I used Chinese cabbage eye cream with skin color that can perfectly replace UDPP. The texture is smooth and delicate, and the durability and color rendering of makeup are almost the same as UDPP. The key point of using this base cream is: don't use sponge stick to directly take cream and apply it to eyelids, because eyelids are thin and have relatively many textures, and it is easy to get stuck and agglomerate if it is not well controlled. So first apply a proper amount on the back of your hand, then apply a little evenly with your fingers in a circle, and then apply it to your eyelids.

Just spread it horizontally along the grain, which is very convenient.

When drawing two-color smudge for the first time, students are advised to choose two different shades of the same color system (such as dark blue and light blue, deep purple and light purple, dark green and light green) for practice. Because it is easier to transition and smudge evenly. This is Maybelline's 4-color eye shadow tray.

Draw the whole eyelid with a big eye shadow brush, which is exactly the same as the monochrome painting taught last time. Students who don't understand this, go and review the last monochrome tutorial. I won't repeat it here.

So is the other side.

The first color is complete.

Wipe the paper towel with the same brush, and then take a dark color of the same color.

When we paint eye shadow, we can imagine our eyes as a semicircle. What we need to draw in dark color is the outer half of the semicircle, which is where I draw the shadow.

There are no specific rules for the shape of dark blocks, so you can draw them as you like. You can draw half as good as the picture above, or you can draw an oblique piece like me. Anyway, you can draw as you like, as long as it looks good. Don't worry about abrupt boundaries, just draw dark blocks.

In the previous monochrome and dark blocks, we used the simplest technique of "painting" colors. Then, it is the focus of this eye makeup, which requires the technique of "dizzy". What is smearing? Generally speaking, the color smudge is even and natural, and you can't see the boundary between the two colors. When two colors are smudged, it is recommended to choose another clean and special smudge brush. It is best to choose a round head brush with a slightly thicker head and loose hair, which is neither soft nor hard. Too hard smudge brush will take away all the previous colors, too soft smudge brush is not strong enough, and sometimes the colors will not smudge.

When you feel dizzy, you have to do two steps. The first step is to use a clean smudge brush to gently sweep up and down at the junction of dark and light colors, so that the boundary will become blurred and form a natural transition.

The second step is to apply a clean smudge brush to the dark block and smudge it several times from left to right. It can be properly brought to the edge of the light-colored block in front, and the boundary is blurred outside, and the transition is naturally completed.

In the same way on the other side, draw a dark block first, then stun the middle boundary, and finally stun the outer boundary of the color block.

Eye shadow finishing

You can see the effect of opening, because of the transition of depth, the eyes will become more stereoscopic than monochrome.

The color matching method of the lower eye shadow is the same as that of the upper eye shadow, with dark eyes at the end and light eyes at the head. Of course, color matching is not static. As long as you practice skillfully, you can match it according to your own mood and preferences. This is the color scheme. Just safer. Novices can practice this first. The method of eye shadow painting is basically the same as monochrome painting, with a medium brush and a dark color at the top to draw the end of the eye.

The color block width of the lower eye shadow can also be adjusted by yourself.

You can paint rough or fine, or you don't like it. Specifically, how to draw a good-looking picture? Draw more pictures at home if you have nothing to do. Don't be afraid of trouble. Practice hard and you can draw well when you go out!

Then the extra-small eye shadow brush takes a light color to draw eyes.

Where the two colors meet, you can properly paint a light color to cover a little dark color, and then it becomes a natural transition. If it's still a little abrupt, just use the small brush on the paper towel and brush it back and forth at the handover place a few times, which is the smudge mentioned above. It will be natural.

The upper and lower eye shadows are completed by drawing eyeliner, using brown cabbage eyeliner and short hair brush.

Draw the eyeliner with an eyeliner first, which is even and uneven, and perfection is not important. Just draw near the eyelashes, not on them.

Then use a short brush to stun the eyeliner evenly, which is super convenient.

Then draw eyeliner.

Students who don't like to draw eyeliner can also omit this step to see if they like it or not.

Then stick false eyelashes, or stick half at the end of the eyes. Students who can't paste false eyelashes go to the store to see for themselves. There are three super detailed tutorials. Choosing the most suitable method is king!
