Shaded arrows: how to draw them step by step?
As easy as pie
Eyeliner is one of girls’ favorite makeup techniques, because with their help you can make your eyes brighter and more expressive. How to draw the lightest shaded arrows, we tell you in the material.
What are the benefits of shaded arrows? Firstly, they look softer and more delicate than classic ones, so they are ideal for appropriate looks, for example, for wedding makeup. Secondly, drawing such arrows is a little easier, since shading can hide minor flaws. That is why beginners in the field of makeup should pay special attention to this elegant makeup technique.
What products will you need?
When creating shaded arrows, you can’t get by with just one eyeliner or liner. Your beauty arsenal should include an eyeshadow base , an eyeliner in the desired shade, a gel eyeliner and an eyeshadow palette in beige and brown tones.
Preparing eyelids for makeup
The first step is to prepare the skin. Apply a base under the shadows so that your eye makeup is not only beautiful, but also bright and long-lasting.
Applying shadows
Apply light shimmer shadows to the upper eyelids. Darken the outer corners and crease with brown matte shadows. Blend the shadows with a fluffy brush so that the transitions are not noticeable.
Interlash line
Always start with a pencil stroke between the lashes so that the future arrow does not look flat and detached from the eye. Make sure that there are no light gaps between the eyelashes, and only then start drawing out the arrow. The interlash line is the foundation of ideal arrows, on the basis of which it is even easier to create them.
Classic arrow
Using a thin brush and gel eyeliner or liner, draw a classic arrow. If necessary, adjust the line so that it looks harmonious on the eyelid.
If you are a beginner, take the time to first draw an arrow with a sharpened pencil and only then outline it with eyeliner. A pencil will help you fill your hand, since eyeliner requires special skill and experience.
Shaded arrow
It’s very easy to make a shaded arrow out of a classic arrow. It is enough to shade the line with a small brush until it is fixed on the skin. To make the transition look more natural, add some brown matte shadows to the blend.
Eyelashes
And the final step is applying mascara to the eyelashes for an always up-to-date eye makeup.
