As a newcomer to the workplace, how can you appear poised and professional while still showcasing your personal charm? What kind of makeup is most suitable for us fresh out of school? In truth, different face shapes call for different makeup approaches. When paired correctly, it can make your efforts twice as effective; but if mismatched, it might backfire. Alright, let's explore how different face shapes should be complemented with makeup.
Double-Eyelid Girls:
For those with larger eyes and double eyelids, eyeliner isn't necessary. If you must apply it, keep it thin and subtle—the finer the better. Apply slightly more intensity at the outer corner, but avoid heavy lines. Basically, just fill in the gaps between lashes. Eye shadow should also be light and delicate, avoiding heavy colors.
Single-Lidded Girls:
You can add thickness to your eyeliner. Choose eyeshadows with medium-high brightness and low saturation. Coordinate these with your outfit to create a fresh, clean style. For eyebrows, blush, and lipstick, select colors with harmonious brightness levels to unify the overall look—clean and simple.
Round-faced women:
Generally, round-faced women rely on hairstyles and makeup to enhance their appearance. For hairstyles, consider parting long bangs down the middle and adding some waves.For makeup, focus on the eyes first. When applying eyeliner, keep it close to the lash line, making it slightly thicker at the center to emphasize the eyes. Extend the liner slightly at the outer corners and lift it upward to create the illusion of longer, larger eyes. For lip gloss, opt for light shades with a sheer, natural finish, but avoid pursing your lips after application.If your nose lacks definition, lightly dust highlighter powder along the bridge and cheekbones to create contouring and reduce roundness.
For those with small faces:
When applying makeup, intentionally create the illusion of a larger face. Opt for warm-toned light foundations or skin tones with a pinkish-pink undertone.Light shades also create a visually enlarging effect in makeup. For slender-faced women, use highlighting shades to brighten sunken areas like the eye sockets, cheekbones, and hollows of the cheeks. Apply lightly to avoid overpowering subsequent contouring steps.
