Usually, during the makeup process, there are always some small details that attract special attention, such as tear troughs and nasolabial folds. How can a perfect base makeup be "destroyed" by these tiny imperfections? But tear troughs and nasolabial folds are really difficult to hide.
If you want to cover up by applying makeup, it's not just about using concealer. Visually filling the facial gullies and weakening the position of the face shadows requires us to use color to brighten the depressions, while creating a facial "lighting board" to make this part of the skin pop up. Today we will talk in detail about how to cover the tear troughs and nasolabial folds.
Weakens hatch lines
This step is done for the tear trough location. We look up in the mirror and look down slightly, and it's easy to identify the position of the tear trough under our eyes. The causes of tear troughs are relatively complex, which may be innate, or it may be caused by the coexistence of dark circles and bulging eye bags under the eyes. Whatever the reason, with tear troughs at the moment, it's easy to look old and tired.
The length and depth of each person's tear troughs vary, but the same thing is that the tear troughs are like a dividing line between the skin under the eyes and the skin in the face, dividing the face. All we have to do is to weaken this dividing line.
After the base makeup is complete, we first need to confirm that the dark circles under the eyes are covered. Dark circles are revealed, which visually aggravates the performance of tear troughs. Use orange-toned concealer to refine before base makeup to ensure the skin is uniform in color under the eyes.
On this basis, we confirm the location of the tear trough and we can start to cover it. Choose a concealer that is one degree whiter than the base color, use a concealer brush with a fine brush tip, dip a small amount of concealer, blend it slightly on the back of your hand, and then draw precisely on the tear trough line.
Note that the lines drawn should be fine, and make sure to cover the shadow line of the tear trough. Then gently brush the border line with a concealer brush and press the concealer with a small force to confirm that it fits the skin. At this time, we observe the shadow of the tear trough, which has been brightened by nearly 80%.
Manufacture skin lighting plates
This step is a key step in brightening the tear troughs and nasolabial folds. We use a matte highlighter to brighten up under the eyes, the inside of the nose bridge, and the small triangle of the face, and a small amount of light sweeping on this part of the skin, so that this position is visually booming, forming a "lighting" effect under the eyes, filling the skin.
In addition, the same steps are taken in the nasolabial fold position. Apply the matte highlighter, poke a small amount in the recessed position of the nasal wing, lift the base of the nose, and at the same time bring it to the nasolabial lines, and swipe the highlighter to create a booming effect.
