Sunsets and Lemons: Yellow color in eye makeup
That yellow color will burst into your summer makeup and will remain among the main trends of the season for a long time, they wrote a lot after the spring-summer fashion shows - “Genzer Yellow” was promised as a change to “millennial pink”. However, the younger generation doesn’t have any monopoly on yellow - this energetic color is interesting and it’s not so difficult to build in a variety of makeup options. We tell how to wear yellow shadows (and not only) this summer.
How it started
Yellow has a special fashionable status in 2017 - then its shades flashed in celebrity clothes more often than ever. Blake Lively, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Rihanna - all the color of instagram appeared in yellow. This year, he is clearly not going to take positions: many remember the amazing yellow dress of Kim Kardashian, and a few days ago Bella Hadid showed a neon total bow with a yellow manicure - and also caused a storm of emotions among subscribers. In the end, remember the yellow dress Beyonce from the clip "Hold Up", which looks not just a costume, but a statement: the singer has long loved and wears this color, so now is the time to be inspired by her iconic outfits.
The yellow color in make-up is not so simple: it is traditionally considered difficult and supposedly one that doesn’t suit everyone, so he managed to get into a circle of viable trends only through experimentation. This year, the sun shade supports another trend in the make-up of the eyes: Hollywood celebrities enthusiastically wear sunset shades in their eyes - red, orange and yellow combine in a variety of combinations to get the makeup that perfectly rhymes with the summer. But we recommend turning to uncompromising clean shades, minimalism and mono make-up: yellow accents are not as scary as it seems, but the “correct” colors today can be found not only among niche or professional brands.
Why do you need it
Yellow for too long was considered unbearable and in few places appropriate color: “too” bright, convenient for work in far from every texture, and even needs attention in combination with a pronounced yellow skin tone. The last burst of yellow was associated with a short-lived instagram mode of dripping in this shade, which also happened in the order of the game, as often happens on a social network. Now he has every chance of entering the mainstream of make-up, and here we have the opportunity to experiment with a wide variety of arrows and shadows. Contrary to fears, yellow can be equally good on dark or swarthy and very light skin, and a properly selected clean shade will not make you a lemon - especially since instead of feathering up to the eyebrows you can choose a neat arrow or rich colored mascara on the eyebrows or eyelashes .
Another plus of eccentric color is that it is self-sufficient, therefore, it legitimately claims to become the main person in the bright make-up of those who love minimalism, but disagree on half measures. However, yellow is perfectly combined with other bright colors: wear it in the company of red, purple, blue, pink. Yellow manicure is also in high esteem, and you can also cross two summer trends at once and make neon makeup.
How to do it
The main problem of yellow in make-up can be the fact that not all textures have a bright color that behaves equally well, especially neat shades will have to be carefully adjusted. Dry shadows will surely require a base for make-up: if you don’t like the feeling of “plaster” on your face, choose cream options - but check the density and brightness of the product without departing from the cash register. Look for great cream options on 3ina and NYX, as well as on professional brands - wherever they specialize in color products.
If you are focused on long-term experiments, it is better to invest in the purchase of pressed or crumbly pigment: you will need to adapt to it, but on the skin you will get a color “not eaten” by impurities, and if you learn to change the texture of the pigment (using any liquid for mixing shadows, water cream base), it will be possible to find many uses for it, including drawing arrows and coloring eyebrows. Pigments will be found again in the NYX and MAC. When choosing a shade, be guided by your own preferences, but carefully “try on” the color: for light skin it is better to choose the most pure tones, including pastel ones. Cold shades of yellow can be a winning option for everyone, but you should not be afraid of warm sunshine, either. If you worry that yellow will accentuate the natural tone of the skin, bypass the warm golden hues.
