Makeup: Tips professional artist
 Why do so many artists to manage brushes and paints to create an illusion that is about the painting "come to life"? And we have not always possible to create such an effect in makeup? Not always possible to "cheat" with the help of make-up and others to draw the right face. I will tell you a secret: a few artists know the laws of painting, which help to create the illusion of volume. Let's take into service some of their secrets. Let us learn how they do it. And then we can afford to "draw" the face that we need.

"Warm-cold"

First, a small educational program: all the colors and shades are divided into warm and cold. Warm - those that are closer to red, and cold - is closer to blue. Not difficult. Now, the law itself, in fact: If the light is warm, the shadow always - cold. If the light is cold, the shadow - warm . All. There are no exceptions. White is considered cold.

In practice

If the basic tone of the person (foundation or powder) warm, then blush, eye shadow and mascara is better to take the cool, it's better to give volume. And vice versa.

Of course, if the task is to make a natural makeup, and natural. This is - a serious reservation, and it applies to all listed below as well.

Light, shade, partial shade

The volume can be passed only three tones: the lightest (light), the darkest (shadow) and the average (penumbra). Others - derivatives of these tones. Thus, in order to "sculpt" his face make-up, you need to have at least three colors. The basic tone that you use as a foundation (tone or powder), light color (powder of a lighter tone than the base), and a darker tone (darker blush or foundation).

In practice

Be sure to set up an addition to the main tone means two more: a lighter and a darker. With them, you can simulate the shape.

Lighter powder gives not only the freshness of the face, but also helps to make the volume more clear and detailed, adding a contrast! The contrast - the volume more pronounced. And vice versa. But the amount should be! Otherwise, the person will be flat and uninteresting.

Strictly on the site!

Only the shadow position in the right spot, this creates the illusion of volume, but does not destroy it. Error in the law is often not so obvious, but many can spoil your efforts.

In practice

For example, if you select the correct color and tone blush and even aktsentiruete their lighter powder, but still it will not be in place, but somewhere in the region of the ear, the best - in vain. Conclusion: spend a little more time to "sculpt" the volume, but do it right. Then the result will make you happy. That's compare how the same person can be "painted" right and wrong.

The same can be said of the shadows.

In painting, the main thing - tone!

Paradoxically, it is. Not the color, namely tone. What does it mean? This means that the canvas can not be spots, the same tone (tone - a relationship of "light-dark"). That is, if you take a picture of the work on the black-and-white film, then there should be a uniform "gray" porridge, everything should be clear, and each color differ from each other in tone. Incidentally, we are likely to use this law in the clothes when we put on dresses contrasting or monochromatic colors with accents (and in fact, the tone too). Let's use it and make-up.

In practice

Look at this example. Blush tones and shadows of a tonal framework does not "do" anything to correct the person.

While the shadows and blush, different in tone from the base - "sculpt" the form and help to convey the desired amount.

  Most often this error can be found on the tanned faces. Total saturated skin tone "requires" and dark tone (shadow, blush) choose more saturated.

Each color has its complementary color

What is a complementary color? It is the color pair, color-contrast. Each color has its own steam. Any color "colors" in the optional all that close to him. How to cast a highlight color, tint.

In practice

How to use it? This means that whatever your outfit gives some extra color and your face. And knowing this, can and must make to adjust.

Colors located opposite each other - and have further. Additional colors have every color, every shade!

But the examples. Spectacular and attractive red color in clothes is not so harmless, it can outshine you, because he paints the face in an extra green. Watch, if you have red in your wardrobe. To refuse him? Not at all. To face did not look green, the more active use of paint makeup. And add bronze and purple (they neutralize green). At the same time, avoid all shades of green makeup - is even more greenery give the whole face.

But not our favorite color: purple (color spinsters) and green (the color of grandmothers) oddly "teaches" the person in the best possible way! After all, they illuminate the face peach and pink. And this is a very fresh and young! So it is time to rehabilitate these colors, they are not an old woman, as many believe.

Light also has its own color

You notice how differently you sometimes look with a difference of a few seconds? Here the sun came out - and you alone, that entered the underground passage - and you really do not look like themselves. It is not just light, or lack of it. The point of the light color. Confused? Now it will be easier.

Noticed that the lighting is different from different light? Fluorescent tubes provide light cold, bluish. But ordinary light bulbs have a very warm yellow light. The same warm light is sunlight, but in cloudy weather, light, rather cold than warm. Use it!

1.   The bright spring sun will give a make-up is very strong yellow or even orange. So do not get carried away with earth tones, they are just brown and very unnatural.

2.   Cool color office lamps, on the contrary, can make your "cold" make even colder. Less blue and purple, and so they are obtained from conventional crimson hues.

3.   It is not necessary to correct makeup in the bathroom where the light yellow lamp, if you then go out into the room with a cold light. Find a place to do it with a similar light. Then stay at the mirror will make sense.

And finally. All the secrets that have been listed, not contrary to the rules that already exist in visage, or that you are using. New knowledge can only complement and diversify our usual approach. Continuing to experiment, to try and find your method in the make-up - that is what can help some of the secrets of professional artists.
