Overhanging eyelid: what a permanent makeup master needs to consider

Proper makeup works wonders with any appearance, hiding any flaws and making facial features attractive. One of the not very pleasant features of female appearance is the hanging eyelid. What this concept is expressed in, how it looks and how you can fix it, read in this article.

A drooping eyelid is a common problem among women. Rather, the representatives of the fair sex themselves consider this a problem, and from an anatomical point of view, the impending eyelid is simply a structural feature of the eyes. If a woman still wants to get rid of this, in her opinion, flaw, then the correct permanent makeup will help to resolve the issue. If the specialist does everything professionally and correctly emphasizes the shape of the eye, you can achieve a delightful effect.

Problem Features

The overhanging eyelid is a “heavy” upper eyelid lowered onto the mobile one, which creates the appearance of a kind of skin “hood”. According to some aesthetes, this feature gives a woman a slightly sad, languid and slightly mysterious look, but the bearers of this feature themselves do not think so.

Causes of the impending century:

• heredity;
• national feature;
• may occur with age;
• sharp weight loss;
• occurs as a result of allergies and small edema with an unsuccessful selection of cosmetics.

The impending eyelid causes some difficulties when applying makeup, which is not easy for every woman to cope with. Shadows practically do not hold on the eyelid, but roll down, which makes the makeup ugly and sloppy. The arrow breaks or breaks, its pattern is lost, it can be imprinted on the upper eyelid. Mascara stains the eyelid when applied to the eyelashes.

All this makes the makeup procedure long and unpleasant, and in the end it may not look very good and cause self-doubt in the owner of this feature. In addition, hanging eyelids make the look heavy, tired, increase the age of their owners.

Some ladies prefer to take drastic measures to eliminate this problem, for example, resort to surgery. However, this is not the most affordable and safe option. In addition, the result may not meet expectations.

Other women choose a safer solution to the problem - they change their lifestyle, do special exercises and exercises for the eyes, perform massages, apply ointments and creams, prepare masks and compresses according to folk recipes. However, these methods are not suitable for eliminating a defect if it is congenital.

Many, in order to correct this situation and avoid trouble when applying makeup, come to a permanent makeup salon, where a micropigmentation specialist who knows the special tricks and subtleties of proper makeup will offer his client not to eliminate this feature, but to turn this seemingly disadvantage into an advantage. .

First, let's turn to the recommendations of professional makeup artists.

Makeup rules

For women with heavy upper eyelids, makeup artists are advised to apply thick arrows that fill the entire visible surface of the moving eyelid. This is the main recommendation of professionals, but there are other options for different types and shapes of eyes:

• basic short arrow - gives eyelashes visual density;
• an arrow with two tails - creates the impression of a "cunning" look;
• classic - is a feature that thickens in the direction from the inner corner to the outer, may be the only element of the cosmetic design of the female face;
• half arrow - recommended for eyes that are close to each other, performed from the center of the ciliary line;
• wide arrow - proposed for the formation of a "cat's look".

When applying makeup, you must strictly adhere to the characteristic features of your appearance. For each type, there are specific types of arrow design.

Tattoo for the impending century

There are a lot of ways to make the look more interesting: from a thin line between the eyelashes and a classic arrow to an arrow with feathering and an art permanent.
However, these methods are good for a standard European eye section. If genetics, with its complex laws, suddenly “reminds” of existing Asian ancestors with the help of an eastern cut of the eyes, with a characteristic heavy moving eyelid, then tattooing techniques will be somewhat limited.

How your client's face will look in the future depends on the correct choice of the type of tattoo.

Unfortunately, in this case, the beloved by many inter-eyelash line will not work at all. Just because the impending eyelid will hide it completely, and all our efforts will be in vain. For the same reason, it is worth cautioning against the now popular arrows with shading that imitates colored decorative shadows. The fact is that a heavy eyelid will cover most of them, leaving only a small edge of the shading part visible, which will look like a colored incomprehensible spot. Moreover, it is absolutely impossible to achieve the refraction of the color of decorative cosmetics that is applied to the skin in tattooing, when the coloring matter is introduced into the skin itself.
Probably, one of the most optimal solutions is the classic wide arrow of the eyelid, which allows you to visually “raise” the outer corner of the eye, thereby making the eye a little more open. Sometimes you can consider the possibility of a little shading. But not colored, but rather imitating the effect of smoke eyes. This will remove the clear outline of the arrow, and it will become more “blurred”, creating an interesting optical effect. First, the contour of the eye is drawn, after which a smooth transition is made to other lighter shades, which smoothes the borders and visually lifts the eyelid. This type of tattoo is suitable for all ages. In addition, women aged 50 and older will appreciate it, as shading masks and makes small wrinkles invisible.

Arrow for the impending century.

There should always be space between the fold of the fixed eyelid and the drawn arrow on the movable eyelid. And it is also important to listen to the client, but the work of permanent make-up of the eyelids must be done ideally from the point of view of the master.

An overhanging eyelid makes it difficult to create ideal facial features. Therefore, in addition to tattooing the eyelid itself, in addition it is better to use eyebrow tattooing. It is preferable to use an angular break and a raised eyebrow. This will visually lift the eyelids and make the look open and attractive.

In general, these simple methods can advantageously emphasize the interesting features of eyes with heavy moving eyelids, since they are hardly worth considering as a disadvantage. After all, this anatomical feature is given by nature, so you don’t need to fight it, but try to competently beat it, making it a “chip”, a feature inherent only in a single client.
