Review of blue eye pencils.  Swatches: the best pencils for blue-gray eyes Purple eyeliner

The main rule of makeup is that there are no rules: any shades and techniques are good as long as you like them. But sometimes you want to understand exactly how a particular color will look on you. BeautyHack special correspondent Moore Soboleva shows exactly how the most popular shades look on gray-green eyes.

Crayon Khol Terrybly, Blue Vision, by Terry

By Terry practically does not make desperate bright shades, preferring calm soft colors. In the dark blue Blue Vision you can see a very fine silver shimmer, but it is almost invisible on the eyes - there is only a hint of color and texture. The pencil itself is waterproof - it lays down softly, sets quickly and there is no need to stretch the eyelid.

The Eye Pencil, Khaki Driver, Guerlain

One of the most beautiful and complex shades in the Guerlain range is this slightly golden khaki. It is believed that shades similar to the color of the iris make the eyes “get lost”, but I really love wearing shades of green in calm makeup - especially if you separate the color of the eyelid and the color of the iris with a thick layer of black mascara.

Eye Khol, shade Delilah, Rouge Bunny Rouge

A pencil complementary to the color of the iris is the easiest way to make them brighter, so reddish shades are most often recommended for green eyes. Rouge Bunny Rouge, as usual with the brand, is perfectly calibrated and harmonious color— Delilah will not make the look look sick and will emphasize green tint. My only complaint is that the pencil itself is quite hard.

Smooth Silk Eye Pencil, shade 7, Giorgio Armani

The pencil has a noble pine color green color, which goes on smoothly in one coat, and a texture that blends easily. The pencil is moderately dense, but not too soft, so it’s easy to make even a thin arrow with it - in addition, on the back there is a fairly convenient neat sponge, which, if necessary, can be used instead of a brush.

Double Wear Stay-in-Place Eye Pencil, Gold, Estee Lauder

Good evening, girls!

I use eye pencils quite rarely, once upon a time I had, as they say, “played enough” (at that period of my life I didn’t know what an eyeshadow base was... and therefore I only used pencils), but now it’s the other way around. I torture and buy shadows, and the pencils are in the far corner - in the literal sense of the word.

And so I thought of showing them to you. This is all that was left after the cleaning and disassembly, I threw something away, gave something away, initially there were twice as many of them. But these ones probably seemed more expensive to me than the others... They are all far from new, some are already 2 years old (kids))

...and again with flash:

It seems to me that in a post about pencils there should be more pictures than words, so I will limit myself to only the points - characteristics and give ratings.
To make this post easier to understand, I decided to divide it roughly

for 4 groups.

Each group will be shown in close-up, swatches, photos and characteristics - in general, everything is as it should be :)

I’ll skip a couple of pencils with a photo on my eyes - after a whole day of photographing and erasing and reapplying eyeliner, my eyes are tired... But I promise that you won’t lose anything from skipping, because... The swatches on the hand are quite good :)

Moreover, a black pencil has joined the favorite three, so let me repeat...)

An expressive look is the basis of any image. Eye pencils and liners will help you highlight your eyes. With their help you can create any eye makeup: from elegant smoky eyes to daring winged wings.

Eyeliner can be of two types:

  • Kayal. Soft, easy to apply, blends well, does not cause irritation. With its help, you can visually correct the shape of your eyes and give your look depth and freshness.

Eyeliners help make your eyes more expressive with winged lines. These products can be of different consistencies: liquid and gel. The latter are used for professional make-up. Eyeliners can also be produced in various forms: in a bottle with a brush and in the form of a felt-tip pen. The latter allows you to conveniently and easily draw arrows even for those who do not have serious experience.

In the Podruzhka online store you can find eye pencils and eyeliners from brands popular around the world such as:

  • L'Oreal;
  • Max Factor;
  • Essence;
  • Catrice;
  • Maybelline;

  • Divage;
  • Eveline;

Among the huge assortment, each customer will choose the eye pencil or eyeliner that she needs to create her favorite look - easy daytime makeup or a bright evening make-up.

We continue to explode summer with bright colors! Last time we talked about the new beauty trend of this summer. Today we will tell you everything about colored liner, namely how to wear it and what shade to choose to match your eye color.

Grade

Every season, cosmetic brands delight us with a huge number of new products, including new collections of colored liners, pencils, liquid eyeliners and markers. If you have been wanting to go beyond the usual black pencil for a long time and don’t know how to choose the most suitable one, then continue reading.

The first thing you need to determine is which liner you are most comfortable working with. Eyeliner makes arrows clearer, but you need to learn how to work with it. The pencil is easier to apply and easy to adjust. And if you apply a base under eye shadow or plain white pencil, and then apply a colored pencil on top of it, it will stay on the eyelids throughout the day.

Remember, bright eyeliners should be the main accent in your makeup, so it is advisable not to use eye shadow (with the exception of beige matte shadows). It is enough to even out your complexion with the help and paint your lips with neutral nude lipstick or.

How to choose eyeliner color to match your eye color

Unlike classic black eyeliner, colored eyeliner should be chosen based on your eye color. The right shade can not only make your eyes more expressive, but also emphasize their depth and add zest to your look.

The shade of the pencil or eyeliner should not blend in with the color of your eyes. On the contrary, it should contrast with it.

Which shades of color liner suit your eye color?

- Blue eyes : brown, green, bronze and silver shades.

- green eyes: purple, plum, brown, charcoal, copper, bronze and gold.

- Brown eyes: purple, blue, brown, graphite, copper, light blue, green, peach.

- grey eyes: lucky ones, because absolutely all colors of the liner suit them.

How to use a colored pencil

Option 1. Draw a colored arrow

Bright graphic arrows are one of . If you know how to draw clear and even arrows, doing the same with a colored liner will not be difficult. If it is difficult to make a perfectly beautiful line, put dots in the middle and at the tip of the future arrow, then connect them together and draw a line.

Option 2. On top of the black arrow

Create graphic black wings using black eyeliner. When it dries, apply a colored liner as close to the black arrow as possible. The line should be the same thickness or thinner than the base black arrow. It is better to leave the lower eyelid unemphasized so as not to overload the eye makeup.

Option 3. Along the lower waterline of the eyelid

This technique is often used by makeup artists to highlight the eye color of models. First, outline the upper eyelid with a basic black or brown eyeliner, then emphasize the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid using a colored liner. Kayal is ideal for this option: it has a soft texture and adheres well to the water area without irritating the mucous membranes of the eyes. The most successful shades for emphasizing the waterline of the eyelid are white, turquoise and gold.

Traditionally, women use black liner for eyeliner. Makeup artists do not recommend limiting yourself to one color, especially in evening and holiday makeup. Owners of blue and blue eyes are recommended to line the edge of the eyelid with a violet-blue or gray-blue pencil, depending on the color type of appearance, hair and skin tone. A muted blue liner will highlight the sophistication of office makeup and at the same time refresh the look.

Who is it suitable for?

Can blue eyeliner be called universal? Dark shades blue suits almost everyone. Girls with brown eyes Cobalt-colored eyeliner is recommended, and for fashionistas with pale skin and bright eyes A contour pencil in the shade of the sky will do. Let's consider the basic rules when choosing a blue eyeliner:

  • Cold shades of blue are not suitable for green eyes, but a purple pencil will help out;
  • gray eyes should be lined with a pencil in a blue, smoky azure or silver palette; metallic blue may appear in evening makeup;
  • a dark blue outline can highlight blue eyes, for a light everyday makeup Light denim shades are suitable;
  • Looks good on brunettes with brown eyes smoky makeup eyes with a dove-blue palette; for evening make-up, rich blue eyeliner in combination with glitter is suitable.

Popular brands

Don't skimp on the circuit. Cult eye cosmetics manufacturers offer long-lasting and rich colors. Professional products do not harm health and do not cause irritation to the mucous membrane in case of contact with it.

Let's highlight five fashionable pencils of blue color. They have different textures, differ in shades and method of application.

Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner, 2, Maybelline NY

Gel eyeliner in the form of a pencil is suitable for creating arrows. The drawing is clear, even, and elegant. The contour is waterproof, but within a minute after application it is possible to correct the design. The look turns out expressive even without colored shadows and bright mascara. To remove the contour, use a two-phase makeup remover.

Couture Kajal Eye Pencil, 2 Bleu Cobalt

The pencil is quite thick and suitable for Smokey Eyes makeup. Applies thickly and blends easily. The manufacturer claims that they can be used to completely cover the eyes, like shadows, and can also be used as a linear contour. In practice, Couture Eye Pencil is suitable as a kajal. The weak durability and noticeable flowability of the pencil require the use of durable liners.

Bleu Exquis, 103, Chanel

The Chanel brand offers long-lasting pencils that are not afraid of moisture. Pearlescent shades apply smoothly, but are a bit dry. The rich blue color sets well over eyeshadow, but it's better to use it on its own. The eyeliner is long-lasting, unobtrusive, and soft. If you compare Bleu Exquis with Bleu Aerien, the former will seem more expressive, shimmering and deep.

Eyeliner Secret Story, Faberlic

Eyeliner in the form of a felt-tip pen. Easy to use, but you need to get used to it.

The applicator is suitable for drawing thin arrows and bold lines. Eyeliner Secret Story is safe for the eyes and can be easily removed with makeup remover.

Gel eye pencil waterproof, 02, Essence

Long-lasting gel contour pencil. Not suitable for shading. It can be compared to L'Oreal gel pencils.

Easy to apply, L’Oreal Paris Infaillible Gel Crayon Waterproof is recommended for drawing eyeliner. Lasts for 12 hours, does not mark and does not require correction during the day, which cannot be said about Essence cosmetics.

Video makeup for beginners

It’s not enough to choose the right pencil; you need to do your eye makeup correctly. First they make the base, then they line the upper eyelid. The better the base is prepared, the smoother the contour will lie. The lower eyelid is not always drawn, and if it is done, it is done extremely carefully. At the final stage, the eyelashes are painted with mascara. For a blue outline, both colored mascara and black mascara are suitable.
