Bronze makeup

"You look great! Only from holiday?", - want to hear this phrase from others? Then you need to master the bronze makeup! A dark complexion and radiant face are associated with well-being, health, relaxation and serene sunny days. But in order for this all to be reflected on your face, it is not at all necessary to run to the solarium or pack your bags and go to the sea. Make-up in bronze tones, made by various beauty-products, which we will tell you in our article, will help create the illusion of tanning.

Bronze Makeup Basics

Bronze makeup-the most popular technique in the hot season for girls with different types of appearance. It is suitable for brunettes, blondes, and redheads, the main thing is to correctly choose the shades of decorative cosmetics in accordance with the natural characteristics of the girl. Creating a bronze makeup, you must consider some of its features:

• On dark skin shades of shadows and lipstick do not look as catchy as on a bright face. Keep this in mind when selecting cosmetics so that the makeup you make is not lost on the bright background of a tanned face.
• Do not forget that your make-up should remain light, and the face should not be overloaded with cosmetics, because the line between attractive and vulgar in this technique is quite thin.
• All shades of bronze, chocolate, copper and brown can be used, but this does not mean that there are no other shades on your face. A bright glare of turquoise, yellow, lilac shadows or a neat arrow with a bright eyeliner can refresh your eyes.
• Smoky smoky eyes and dark complexion are a good symbiosis and an ideal solution for an evening look. In such a make-up, lips are enough to cover with a transparent gloss or nude shade of lipstick without contour.

Create a bronze makeup with your own hands

Now let's analyze the application of decorative cosmetics step by step in this technique and create the perfect makeup in bronze tones. We will talk about what decorative cosmetics should "settle" in your makeup bag this summer and share some tricks to use it.

Stage 1: Create the Illusion of Tanning

The paramount step is the creation of a perfect in tone, radiant face:

• First of all, you need to align the tone of the face. If you have dark skin, a bronze base will do, but you should not choose a shade darker than your natural tone. The tanning effect will not provide a bronze base, and another means-bronzer.
• It is important to use high-quality matting powder, which will prevent the appearance of oily sheen. Prefer light, melting textures.
• An important role in creating makeup in style "kissed by the sun" plays bronze powder. It can be applied not only on the face, but also on the neck and decollete. However, bronze powder is not suitable for covering the entire face, it is applied locally on certain areas, for example, on the cheekbones or collarbone, giving a subtle radiance and creating a light tan effect.
• A product without which it is impossible to imagine a bronze makeup bronzer. The texture is the same powder, it is applied according to the same principle, but the saturation and durability of bronzer pigments is higher than that of the powder. Bronzers are matte and pearly. If your skin is prone to fat, do not choose a shimmering bronzer, it is better to give preference to matte textures. How to apply bronzer? Imagine a bright lamp above you. Which areas will be highlighted first? These are whiskey, nose (but do not put bronzer on the tip), chin and cheekbones. The dark shade of the bronzer can help to correct the shape of the face, if you strive for this, you will be interested to learn about the techniques of sculpture.
• To refresh your face and place accents, use the highlighter, lightening the skin area under the eyebrows, on "apples" cheeks and above the upper lip.

We recommend to pay attention to the universal tool Pupa Luminys baked all over. This tool can replace 4 products at once: bronze blush, highlighter, bronzer and powder. If desired, a matte light shade can also be applied as a shadow.

Stage 2: Bronze Eye Makeup

We proceed to the next stage, the execution of eye makeup. The option below is equally good for girls with any color of the iris. The emphasis in this make-up is placed on the highlight color of bronze in the center of the upper eyelid. You will need: pearl bronze shadows or a pencil, beige and taupovye shadows, eggplant-colored pencil, brushes and base. Step by step instructions for creating makeup looks like this:

1. Cover the base of the eyelid.
2. Apply taupe shadows to the crease of the upper eyelid.
3. Under the eyebrow and in the corners of the eyes add light beige shadows.
4. Eggplant color pencil fill the upper eyelid to the fold, leaving the middle intact.
5. Shade a pencil with a brush.
6. We block the transition from eggplant color to the shade of taup, causing tauop shades in the fold.
7. Fill the middle of the upper eyelid with a copper pencil, or if you choose bronze shadows, then apply them with a brush.
8. Bring the lower eyelid first Taup, and then shades of bronze.
9. Completes makeup black or bronze mascara. Black mascara will make your look more expressive, and bronze mascara will be softer.

Stage 3: paint the sponge

Our solar make up stage completes the application of decorative cosmetics on the lips. If you want bronze lipstick to complete your makeup, it is perfect for the eye makeup described above. Pick a tone 2-3 shades darker than your lip color, it is advisable to give preference to matte textures. Apply a bronze lipstick with a thin layer, and then to further muffle the shade, blot it with your fingers or a dry cloth.

By the way, lipstick shades of bronze this year are especially popular. Designers offer girls to actively use this color in the summer. For example, in the collection of makeup for the summer season of 2015 Tom Ford presents bronze, and lipstick, and a palette of shades of bronze color.
