The adherence to retro that has embraced everyone and everything today has also touched makeup. More and more women are looking at pictures from fashion magazines of the 60s and 70s of the last century to get acquainted with the peculiarities of the make-up of that time. Location: Location: A feature of the makeup of the 60-70s of the last century can be considered a rather meager color gamut, but a strong saturation of the color scheme. For example, shades of green, blue, purple shades were used to stain the eyelids. And, more often than not, they were applied quite thickly. Today, you can easily choose a calmer or brighter shade of shadows, for example, light green or the color of swamp moss, a darker one. Choose one to match your eyes.
With the help of eyeliner, the shape of the eyes was corrected. The lines were drawn quite thickly, thickly. So the eyes acquired depth, and the look - some mystery and tragedy. This is the look of the actresses of the old cinema - sad and a little detached. "Arrows" on the eyelids is also one of the signs of retro makeup. They were painted both thinner and thicker. Was carried out over or directly under the eyelashes. "Arrows" were depicted as straight or curved, depending on the shape of the eyes. By the way, “arrows” are a great way to correct the shape of the eyes, to make them bigger, to give the eyes the shape of “gazelles”. Today, such eye makeup is still in demand and interesting.
Apply 1-2 coats of black mascara on both upper and lower lashes. Retro makeup implies highly curled, "cool" eyelashes. For this purpose, a special "machine" is used, which can be purchased at a cosmetic store.
Retro lips are as vibrant as eyes. This rule runs counter to the modern one, when the emphasis on the face is on one thing: either on the lips or on the eyes. The most favorite color of lipstick in those years (however, and the most accessible) was a fairly bright red. Cinnabar color. Of course, now the color range of decorative cosmetics is somewhat wider. Therefore, if you are not ready for such bright colors, choose a thick brown.
By the way, in those days, pale skin color was in vogue. The fashion for tanning came much later. Whitening your face like a mask, of course, is not worth it. But it is quite possible to lighten your natural tone a little.
