Step-by-step instruction

The main rule when applying any decorative makeup - pre-cleansed skin. Wash yourself or use a cosmetic milk to remove sebum and other impurities from the skin. Next, use your regular day cream. Gently apply it on the face, let it thoroughly soak.

And proceed to the application of tinting base. Thin it with a brush with a thin layer of paint over the face, correct the problem areas with a proofreader, add powder to the mat;

Making perfect eyebrows. Tidy up their form. Remove unwanted hairs with tweezers. After this, draw them with clear, stroking movements. A little blend with a cotton swab, fix the form of the gel. Do not be afraid to "re-darken" the eyebrows - Greek makeup - this is exactly the case where, the darker they are, the better;

We form zygomatic arches. Take a wide brush and bronze blush emphasize the cheekbones, leading the line from the temple to the lower point of the zygomatic bone. Carefully blend to the disappearance of the border between skin color and a touch of blush. They should lie under the cheekbone like a shadow;

Make eye makeup. The eyes of the Greek goddesses are large, languid, mysterious, fascinating. Matte brown and gold shades with nacre particles will help us achieve this effect. Technique of makeup is as follows - with golden shadows we cover the upper movable eyelid and draw a line on the growth border of the lower eyelashes. With brown shades, we paint over the rest of the eyes, up to the eyebrows. Choose a shade to make it look as naturally and smoothly as possible from lighter to darker.

After blending shadows, we draw a black eyeliner on the upper eyelid. The closer the arrow approaches the outer corner of the eye, the wider it will be and eventually go beyond the boundary of the eyelid. Raise the tip of the arrow slightly. Do not make it too long - 2-3 millimeters will be quite enough. The final touch - painting eyelashes bulk mascara in 2 layers;

Give juiciness lips. To create the effect of sexy lips, apply a matte gloss or lipstick of a bright or nude color.You heard right - bright lipstick with bright eyes when doing makeup in the Greek style is quite good live. The only "but": the lack of gloss and glitter on the lips, so the image will lose its sensuality and become vulgar.

Create an evening look

If you choose a Greek makeup for a solemn event, take care of the integrity of the image. Then you can literally feel like a goddess.

So, what you need to consider:

  • Outfit in the Greek style. Of course, the best and most common option is a white and gold flowing dress in the floor of light fabric, grabbed under the chest with a belt, with a V-shaped neckline. In principle, with the length you can and play, the shorter version is not forbidden. But the color scheme of the dress should be maintained in such colors - white, gold, light beige or deep blue. It is advisable to wear woven sandals on the legs;
  • Accessories. Pick up a jewelry of gold color. Silver is also allowed, but it will not look so impressive in this case. Wear a wrap bracelet above the elbow. Ears can be decorated with massive earrings;
  • Hairstyle. And the final touch of the image will be a truly Greek hairstyle, collected from pre-curled hair. You can braid the braid to the side.

Can a little carelessly collect hair upstairs and pin pins. The “knots” look very nice with loose strands framing and emphasizing the face.

Add a bright detail in the form of a living flower pinned to your hair, a golden hoop or silk ribbon. Only, please choose one thing, do not overload the romantic image of the goddess with details.

Greek makeup and the image as a whole has not lost its relevance for many years. Therefore, boldly experiment and do not be afraid to be bright and beautiful.
