The Brows: Consist of three parts: The Base (also called the Head), The Apex which is the highest point of the brow, and the Slope (which consist of the tail).
What can be used on the brows? After shaping the brows a number of products can be used on them. Pencil, to fill in sparse areas, brow powder, brow tint, and clear mascara to create a natural detailed brow once shaped. Also press powder to set the brow so it looks more natural and less waxy.
Under the brow we have the brow bone. This is the area the arch is most prominent. Here you can apply, eyeshadow, concealer, or a neutral filler such as foundation. ***When highlighting under the brow area, do not highlight under the entire brow*** No professional magazine will reveal that, example Vogue. Only highlight the arch. If your not sure where to highlight, take your thumb and lift the apex, this will help you see it.
Next we have the Crease and Fold area. Here we can place your contouring color that blends with the eyeshadow color you choose. Mostly soft browns are in this area.
Our next area is the Lid. Here you eyeshadow colors are placed. Eyeshadow color should not be placed all the way up to the eyebrow unless, you are creating a dramatic look.
The Lid Base is where your liner goes. You can use gel, liquid, or pencil. This should be practiced to maintain a straight detailed effect and as close to the lashes as possible.
Next are the Lashes. Here goes the mascara. If lashes are sparse, you can use strip lashes, or individual lashes to give the appearance of healthier fuller lashes. Also a lash curler can be used to curl and compliment the look.
The Inner Cortex. Here is the location closest to the nose of the eyelid. Usually your lighter colors go here.
The Outer Cortex. Here in this location your darker colors are placed. Located further away from the nose.
Next is your Bottom Base or (waterline). You can use soft cream pencils in this area to give the eye an appearance of being open or closed. Remember lighter colors open the eyes darker give a more closed appearance.
That is some theory for the eyes, stay tuned for application principals and tools for the trade!!!!
DON'T JUST RIP THE RUNWAY, SHUT IT DOWN!!!!
