Perfect arrows. How to draw perfect arrows? Thin and neat hands

Real art. ELLE learned from Make Up For Ever's leading makeup artist Anna Merkusheva how to do it professionally - using eyeliner or improvised products that, at first glance, are not at all intended for this.

All girls are divided into those who do not know how to draw arrows, and those who can do it literally on the go, without even looking in the mirror. If you belong to the first group, you should be patient and start training regularly to get better. First, decide what you will draw with - a pencil or a liner. Secondly, remember a few rules that will greatly facilitate the learning process:

1. Draw arrows in good lighting so that all errors are visible.

2. Draw arrows while looking straight in the mirror. Then the line will not be deformed when the eyes are open due to the fold of the eyelid.

3. If you are not sure about the shape of the arrow, try drawing it with a light pencil first. If unsuccessful, the line can be easily erased.

4. To make your ponytail clearer and neater, use a special brush with an even or oblique cut and eyeliner shadows from a jar. Errors can be corrected with a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover.

5. Start drawing an arrow line from the middle of the eyelid to the place where the eyelash contour ends, and then from the inner corner of the eye to the center. The technique is more psychological, because in order to concentrate on such a painstaking process and draw an even line, a certain amount of time is required. From the center of the eye, the arrow may begin to expand, and if the hand trembles, it’s not a big deal, you can just thicken the line slightly.

6. When drawing arrows, stretch the eyelid to even out the skin texture, then the line will be smooth.

7. To make your eye makeup last longer, degrease your eyelid before applying the eyeshadow by applying an eyeshadow base.

There are also several non-standard ways that will help you draw beautiful arrows:

To make the arrow have a perfectly even tail, attach, for example, a business card, a piece of paper or the tip of a teaspoon to the corner of the eye. Make sure that the angle at which you apply these objects is the same for both the right and left eyes. And then you will get absolutely symmetrical arrows.

You can also use a spoon to draw a thick or graphic eyeliner tip: just place the round base on the edge of your eye. In a word, use a spoon as a ruler, which, by the way, can also be used.

Ordinary tape can be an excellent assistant in drawing arrows. Apply a small piece of clear tape, starting from the outer corner of the eye at the angle you want, onto both eyes at once. Make sure everything is symmetrical. Then start drawing arrows. If you do this with a liner, let it dry and only then peel off the tape.

They will probably never go out of fashion. They were, are and will be. Without this makeup detail, a sensual look is simply unthinkable. However, not everyone is able to draw arrows evenly and correctly; you must admit, this process does not tolerate fuss. But we will tell you everything about the correct arrows and the technique of applying them.

Arrows for small eyes

In order to visually enlarge small eyes, use eyeliner that is not jet black, but more light shades. Brown or dark gray will work well. You only need to draw arrows on the upper eyelid.

An arrow is drawn from the middle of the eye and pointed evenly to the outer corner. If the line is not drawn beyond the outer corner of the eye, it will visually make the eye smaller.

How did they appear?

The history of the appearance of arrows dates back to the times of Ancient Egypt. Moreover, those first ones had a religious meaning and reproduced the shape of a cat’s eyes, but the Egyptians worshiped cats as sacred animals. The arrows were applied to the eyes with black paint (a mixture of clay, henna and Nile silt). A narrow strip from the corner of the eyes reached almost to the ears.

With the campaigns of the Macedonian, the Greeks began to fail their eyes, then the Romans. It must be said that lead was used to produce paint. That’s why the beauties from Rome grew old early, their skin was literally corroded by lead.

The inhabitants of medieval harems gave birth to a new, eastern “arrow” tradition, when arrows were drawn with a mixture containing antimony from lamb fat, almond oil and basma. It happened that ash was added here.
After the temporary oblivion of the Renaissance, the fashion for eyeliner was born again. Italy was the first in Europe of the 14th century to remember them. They painted on the face, which was covered with whitewash so abundantly that it seemed as if an artist was painting on canvas: eyebrows, arrows above the eyes, lips. Even the prohibitions of the church could not stop the flourishing of cosmetics. Not only women had the opportunity to decorate themselves with arrows. Men did this too.

The French took over the championship from Italy. It was here that not just long, large lines came into fashion, but ornately curved ones, twisted into rings, in black, purple, blue, and burgundy colors.

By the 19th century, cosmetics were already being produced in manufactories. Eyeliners were sold dry and diluted with water before application. Natural makeup, airy beauty in fashion. The arrows themselves became shorter and thinner, often very short - barely noticeable notches at the corners of the eyes. It was permissible to draw them long and thick only for ladies of the demimonde.

The last century made its own adjustments. At first small and timid, then sharp and clear, thick with a pointed end on the upper eyelid, like Audrey Hepburn, or very thin, like Twiggy. The hands turned from black to gold and silver, then turned back to black, longer and thicker, but so smooth, curved, and feminine.

The modern choice of arrows is not limited by anything, except perhaps by imagination and taste.

Arrows must be perfect

With them the look becomes expressive. Every woman knows this. But if you think it’s not worth much effort to draw straight arrows, this is a delusion.

Advice!Try this for the first time. Never again will you call such a task easy.

Draw the arrows unevenly, crookedly, or not matching one another in length or height, and your makeup will be hopelessly ruined. We'll have to start over. After all, the flawlessness of your image depends on these seemingly ordinary lines drawn on your eyelids.

How to draw arrows correctly?

First, choose the appropriate option for yourself:

• the arrows are sharp and thin, traditional;
• wide lines are always in fashion;
• double arrows, mystery and chic;
• “cat eyes”, cunning and so seductive.

And you need to start with general makeup on the face, without touching the eyes yet: tint the skin, powder it, correct the eyebrows. Then, depending on the purpose of the makeup (day or evening), apply shadows. If there are no shadows in your plans, you miss this moment.

Secrets of the right arrows

• Try to draw the line as close to the lash line as possible. You will get the visual impression that the eyelashes are very thick, and at the same time you will avoid a white stripe between the edge of the eye and the arrow - it looks so ugly.
• If you don’t want your eyes to look sad, point the tip of the arrow upward. Typically the lower lash line serves as a guide. The arrow serves as its continuation.
• On the inside of the eye, the contour should be barely noticeable, and on the outside, it should be specially outlined several times.
• If shadows are also applied to the eyelids, you should draw arrows on top of them, and fix them on top with shadows of a similar shade.

• Any irregularities that occur are removed with a cotton swab dipped in a mild makeup remover (without oils) or toner. When the line is particularly uneven, dark shadows applied on top and shaded towards the outer edges of the eyes will help out.
• You should add equally bright eyelashes to the bright arrows, so don’t forget about mascara.

Having placed such a noticeable emphasis on the eyes, take care of the immaculate-looking area around the eyes: this is camouflaged under-eye circles and evens out skin tone.

Advice! Follow these secrets and the result will not disappoint you.

Arrows and eye shape

When lining your eyes, their shape is always taken into account. This rule remains very important. An incorrect line, just like an uneven one, is ruined makeup, not to mention the image.

• For eyes over which the eyelids hang, a thin, unswept arrow is an ideal option.
• A wider arrow will be a decoration for round eyes.
• Having close-set eyes, it is better to draw a line starting from the middle of the eyelid, thickening it at the same time. When the eyes are set, on the contrary, wide, a thick line of arrows should be drawn along the entire upper eyelid.

Remember! Eyeliner suits absolutely every woman. The main thing is to draw them correctly and choose from a variety of those that suit you perfectly.

Makeup options

There are many options for eyeliners. The most famous and popular:

• Through the entire upper eyelid. Suitable for round shaped eyes. By changing the thickness of the arrow, directing it towards the temple, you will visually elongate the eye.
• Through the upper and lower eyelids. They can connect at the outer corner of the eye, or the inner one. They may remain isolated. The thickness of the arrows may also depend on the situation. They will perfectly complement evening, masquerade or holiday makeup.

• Along the lower eyelid. The arrow complements the existing makeup created by shadows and even completes the look. Black color is completely optional for her. You can use eyeliner the color of your eyes, and any other shadow on the upper eyelid.
• From the middle of the century. This will make your eyes look a little bigger. The arrows should look natural, without sharp boundaries, and it is quite appropriate to use them during the daytime.
• Follows the contours of the eyes. The eyes will become clearer. These arrows do not go to the temples, but end at the outer corners of the eyes. Can be used if you are creating smoky makeup.

Advice! Try different options, experiment, fantasize and be sure to find your own option.

What and how to line your eyes?

You should think about this too. The drawn arrows must be persistent. In the modern beauty industry, various manufacturers of cosmetic products have tried to solve this problem for a long time. So today a woman has a variety of means at her disposal.

For these purposes, your cosmetic bag must have a choice of:

• Liner is the same liquid eyeliner. Beginners should not use it. This requires good practice to get the hang of it.
• A felt-tip eyeliner will be more convenient than a liner, but also not for beginners.
• Eyeliner is a great tool for beginners. There is always the opportunity to erase or correct flaws. There are also disadvantages. The pencil won't last all day on your eyes. But you can apply eyeliner or shadow on top of it. By the way, the pencil must be perfectly sharpened.
• Dry eyeliner/eyeshadow is a cool thing for newbies. Always blend if your hand trembles, thereby saving your makeup.

All of these products vary greatly in both consistency and results.

Methods of applying arrows

• Starting from the inner corner of the eye. The contour begins to be drawn from the inside of the eyelid along the eyelash growth line to the outside.
• Starting from the middle of the eye. First, from the middle to the outer edge, then from the inner corner to the middle. This makes it easier to make the arrow straight.

If you think that it is easier to draw with one solid line, you are mistaken. It is much easier to do this in two passes: the inner corner - the middle, from here - to the outer.

Along the upper eyelid, along the entire contour, several dots are placed with eyeliner and connected into a line.

Drawing technique

Depending on the product you choose, it varies slightly.

To draw even, beautiful arrows with liquid eyeliner, it is better to smear the excess amount from a brush onto the edge of the tube. Then apply the brush to the base of the eyelashes as close as possible, and now you can confidently, but smoothly, draw the desired contour. If your hand still trembles, you can correct the line with a cotton swab. The line will be clear and not at all greasy.

Liquid eyeliner dries and tightens the skin. To prevent this from happening, powder your eyelid. If shadows are applied, pulling does not happen.

A felt-tip eyeliner is convenient for thick arrows. It is drawn a little above the eyelash line, then the middle is painted over.

A pencil is a more versatile tool. In order for the process to proceed unhindered, the eyelid should be slightly raised with the finger of one hand, for which, at the place where the eyebrow bends, pull the eyelid up. And then draw an arrow carefully along the eyelash growth line.

To draw arrows with shadows, select a thin brush so that its end is beveled, wet it a little and pick up shadows.

Advice! Don't use too many shadows, they will crumble when applied. After the arrows are drawn, the remains are brushed off with a wide brush, and the area around the eyes is lightly powdered.

By the way, using shadows you can create a smoky eye effect. In this case, the arrows are drawn with a pencil and then shaded with shadows of the corresponding color.

Other options

By the way, many female representatives prefer permanent makeup to sitting in front of the mirror, drawing out the perfect arrows. When you get tired of it, use henna.

But here you should remember some subtleties. Henna painting is appropriate if your skin is oily or damp. Otherwise, you risk getting irritated.

Only the outer arrows are drawn with henna so that it does not get on the mucous membrane of the eye. Brown and red henna is most suitable for these purposes. Black contains paraphenylenediamine (PPD), a very strong allergen.

To have a bewitching look, it is not enough to have natural beauty.
It has long been known that properly done makeup solves various problems. It visually corrects the shape and size of the eyes, and the gaze gains expressiveness. Arrows do an excellent job with this role. With them your image is brought to perfection. You must learn to master the art of drawing arrows, just as the women before you have done for centuries.

How to draw arrows on the eyes correctly

Today, the question of how to correctly draw arrows on the eyes (photo step by step) worries many women. And this is not without reason, because proper eye makeup helps to hide imperfections: visually enlarge the eyes, elongate or round them, visually adjust the distance between them (wide/close-set eyes), give the look expressiveness and sexuality. Having learned this art, you will always look irresistible.

Making your eyes expressive: how to choose cosmetics

Today there is quite a large selection of various cosmetics with which you can paint on your eyes to make your look charming and memorable. You need to choose different eyeliners based on your experience and what result you want to get. Let's take a closer look.

• Pencil. This is an ideal tool for beginners. It’s easy to line your eyes with a pencil, it draws evenly and softly and can be corrected, but it still has one drawback. If you do not sharpen your pencil before each use, you will not achieve an ideal result. Remember this.
• Felt pen. Draws very finely, but after a while the brightness of the line will decrease significantly.
• Cream eyeliner. Perhaps the most ideal option for drawing creative lines. You just need to choose a brush of suitable thickness.
• Liquid eyeliner. They have a convenient brush applicator that makes it quite easy to draw an arrow.
• Helium liners. Their only drawback is that they harden too quickly, which makes it impossible to easily correct if the line turns out to be uneven or sloppy.
• Arrows stickers. An ideal product for those ladies who do not know how or do not want to use makeup for eyeliner.

Shape and shape of the eye: choosing a line that emphasizes the beauty

Before you draw the arrows, you need to figure out what shape will look perfect before your eyes. Only in this case the effect will be flawless.

• Arrows of any shape and color are suitable for an almond-shaped cut. The main thing here is to maintain clarity and accuracy in applying makeup.
• Narrow eye shape (Asian). For this shape, the drawn lines should be thin, their tips raised and not extending beyond the outer corners. The most convenient way to draw them is with a felt-tip pen.
• Round eyes will look advantageous if you draw the arrow upward from the middle of the eyelid, thus lengthening the eye, and at the same time gradually thickening the width of the line so as not to create the effect of a heavy eyelid.
• For small eyes, the main thing is to find an opportunity to enlarge them. To do this, draw a thin arrow near the top of the eyelashes (it is better to use light cosmetics for this). For the lower eyelid, take a light pencil and draw it along the inner line.
• For wide-set eyes, lines that look thicker at the inner corner of the eye and thinner at the outer corner are suitable, but the transition should not be pronounced.
• For those eyes that are too covered by the eyelid, and it is difficult to draw an arrow on them, you should simply draw the lower eyelash edge with a light pencil.

How to draw classic thin arrows

Now let's take a closer look at how to correctly draw arrows on the eyes: (photo step by step) thin classic ones. To do this you will need:

• base for shadows;
• light satin shadows;
• matte shadows;
• shadows with shimmer;
• large flat brush;
• small flat brush;
• barrel brush;
• small pencil brush;
• gel eyeliner with a thin brush;
• black waterproof pencil;
• mascara

As you can see, to create perfect arrows you will need a lot of items, but the result is worth it. So, first of all, apply an eyeshadow base to your eyelid. Take a large flat brush and apply a satin light shadow on top, blending it well onto the eyelid. All this will create a kind of barrier, thanks to which the applied arrow will not be imprinted on the eyelid.

Take a barrel brush and matte eyeshadow. Distribute them along the orbital line of the eyelid. This will make your eye more expressive.

Now take a flat small brush and use the same matte shadow to tint the lower eyelid from the middle to the outer corner.

Next, take the gel eyeliner and make the first stroke. Draw a line from the outer point of the eye, leading it to the crease of the upper eyelid. You can make the ponytail a little steeper or vice versa. In the first case, it should be parallel to the base of the eyebrow, and in the second, it should be a continuation of the line of the lower eyelid. Make the same line on the second eye.

Draw a thin line on the eyelid using a brush right next to the eyelashes. To make it look smoother, pull out the corner of your eye a little. Do the same on the second eye.

Use a neat, even line to connect the tail and the contour near the eyelashes.

Now take a black waterproof pencil and line the space between your lashes. This way they will look much thicker and fluffier, and the arrow itself will be neater.

Take a pencil brush and apply some shimmer eyeshadow in the inner corner of your eyes. Next, draw a line under the eyebrow with satin shadow.

And the final touch is mascara. Paint your eyelashes well with it.

How to draw expressive wide arrows

It's very easy to make a beautiful wide eyeliner in two stages. To do this, you need to draw a line from the outer tip of the eye and from the middle of the eyelid. Next, you should connect the inner corner of the eye with a line in the middle. Fill in everything with a pencil or eyeliner.

Another option for making an arrow, which is somewhat more complicated. It is ideal for those ladies who are not afraid and already know how to work with fine lines. You should also start from the outer part of the eye. Mark a sharp corner and draw a thin line from the inside of the eye. Shade. Here you can independently adjust the length of the arrow.

If you are afraid of ruining the arrow or sitting for most of the evening drawing, just use a stencil. Place it on the eye and shade the cut out part.

And in the last version of drawing the arrows, you can use a regular spoon. Using a pen, draw a line from the outer part of the eye, and applying the rounded part to the eye, complete the shape of the arrow. All you have to do is shade it.

Now you know how to draw arrows on your eyes correctly (photo step by step). All you have to do is determine your eye type and choose the necessary cosmetics to beautifully create the lines above the eyelashes. And remember that everything should be in moderation. Makeup should be selected in accordance with the time of day, the event you are going to and simply your mood. Be irresistible!
