Since the days of Cleopatra, emphasizing the natural shape of the eyes has been used in the beauty industry around the world. This was done using charcoal, henna, oil solutions with paint and other substances.

The old methods have been replaced by comfortable eyeliners in the form of liquid cream and soft pencils. It's easy to buy them; the policy of cosmetic companies offers products in various price categories. But not everyone knows how to use them correctly.

Popular arrow types

Classic thin lines.
It is better to draw this type of arrows with an eyeliner pencil, since you should get perfectly straight lines of the same width. To do this, you need to walk the rod from the inside of the upper eyelid to the outside. The edge of the arrow needs to be made fatter and raised up.

Cat's eye.
This type of arrow has a double interpretation. The first is simple; a smooth line is drawn on the eyelid, which at the end sharply goes up, visually increasing the length of the eye. An additional arrow on the lower eyelid, turning into the upper one, can add brightness to the image, creating a clear outline of the outer edge of the eye. In the evening look, you can add a few more thin stripes slightly to the left of the arrow, but directed in its direction.

Double pattern.
To create non-standard arrows, it is enough to draw its end a little higher and draw a short line to it, emphasizing the upper part of the eyelid. Thus, we get a patterned line that goes very effectively with any makeup. The double pattern looks best if the makeup was based on light shadows without a shimmer.

Thick line.
Thick arrows are most often drawn with a pencil and then shaded to create smoky eyes. Some girls go with solid black arrows, when a thick layer of eyeliner is applied to the entire eyelid, smoothly stretched to the edge of the eyebrow. However, such makeup cannot be used for every day.

Matching the arrows to the shape of the eyes

The luckiest ones are those with oval, almond-shaped eyes. They suit all possible types of arrows, including those that suit an extremely extravagant style. Thin lines emphasize the natural shape of the eye, double feline - make the look more seductive and captivating.

Round eyes must be visually lengthened, making them more oblong, almond-shaped. To do this, it is better to use thin lines with an elongated and thick end, which will lengthen the eye, giving it a more "feline" shape. It is better to avoid thick lines in eye makeup, otherwise you risk creating the effect of artificial "doll" eyes.

Narrow eyes need visual magnification, so it's better not to draw arrows on them. It is possible to apply a very fine line along the lash line, but this is not necessary either.

Widely spaced eyes are best tinted with a thick line, and it should be wide at the bridge of the nose, and thin at the outer corners. It is better to paint far-apart eyes on the contrary, that is, using the classical method with a thin line.
