Carefully select the shades of the shadows. It is necessary that the palette goes well with the color of the eyes and fits the outfit. Remember that shadows of the same shade as the eyes can make the look cloudy and inexpressive. Beware of red shadows that will add fatigue to the eyes. You should not choose the shade of shadows to match the color of the dress or sweater, it will look too simplistic and artless.

Having chosen the gamma, proceed to the application. Apply a darker shade closer to the outer corner of the eye, a lighter shade to the inner corner.

Upon completion of the design of the eyelids, line your eyes with eyeliner - black or colored, evening makeup allows any of these options. The next step is coloring the eyelashes.

New Year's makeup 2018 will surprise you with warmth and richness. In the year of the Earth Dog, you should think about cosmetics in brown-beige tones and golden sparkles, which will emphasize the solemnity of makeup.

Features of New Year's makeup

On New Year's Eve, every woman wants to shine in the truest sense of the word. However, the Earth Dog is one of those animals that does not tolerate pretentiousness and arrogance. Fashion makeup for the New Year 2018 should be moderately saturated. This does not exclude bright accents and interesting solutions. Cosmetics with shimmering particles are quite capable of refreshing an evening make-up and giving an image of mystery.

The tone of the face will be successful if the skin is well prepared. A week before the New Year's party, it is worth visiting a beautician, doing a facial cleansing, getting rid of skin rashes and peeling. In this case, peeling will help out, which the specialist will select in accordance with the characteristics of the skin. No makeup can hide the signs of chronic fatigue. That is why it is important to get a good night's sleep before the New Year's party.

To make the face shine and look younger, it is enough to use matting compositions with reflective particles. Fans of smoky makeup should pay attention to loose shadows. They are well shaded and form soft transitions from one color to another.

False eyelashes will help create a beautiful look. If they are not welcome in everyday outfit, then on New Year's Eve you can afford luxurious eyelashes with tips curled up. New Year's makeup for brunettes should be more intense. But here, it is not the color of the hair that is of paramount importance, but the shade of the skin. To emphasize the porcelain whiteness of the face will help bright lipstick or shadows of an intense palette. If the task of makeup is to smooth out accentuated pallor, then you should choose cosmetics in pastel colors, but with a cool tint.

Similarly, New Year's makeup for blondes is selected. Girls of the "summer" color type should shade their skin with pink-peach blush. Cosmetics are selected based on the color of the eyes. But it is worth remembering that the Earth Dog - a symbol of the coming year - favors the yellow color. Not all blondes can recommend makeup in yellow tones, but shadows with golden sparkles and nude lipstick will come in handy.

Key trends

If we talk about the color palette, then it is advisable to keep the New Year's makeup 2018 in beige and brown tones. Shadows can be marsh-grass or earthy-chocolate shade. Refresh makeup will be able to cosmetics in terracotta, cherry, emerald green tones. Chocolate brown can be not only shadows, but also mascara. This option is especially good for girls with pale skin.

Concerning fashion trends makeup, then there are several. Consider the most interesting solutions for the New Year's make-up.

nude makeup

Many girls use nude makeup to create everyday makeup. It is suitable for both brunettes and blondes. Of course, on New Year's Eve you want brighter and more contrasting solutions. That is why nude makeup for the new year is undergoing some changes. First, you can choose a more saturated palette of shadows. It is desirable to emphasize the eyebrow line, and for this you need to use a soft pencil or loose shadows a tone darker than your own eyebrow color.

Shimmering foundation, beige blush and light lip gloss will help create makeup for a New Year's corporate party. The focus is best done on the eyes. It is enough to apply mascara that increases volume, or resort to false eyelashes. If you want a more saturated make-up, then glitter shadows or an eye liner will help. But it is worth remembering that nude makeup should never be overly active. Its task is to emphasize the natural beauty and hide the imperfections of the skin.

Smokey brown and beige

Smokey eye makeup never goes out of style. It is suitable for both everyday outings and special occasions. Of particular importance is the correct application of shadows. Before using the main color, light shadows with a shimmering effect are applied to the upper eyelid. Makeup in the New Year should be more expressive than everyday make-up, so preference is given to darker colors, thick mascara and clearly drawn “arrows”.

If we talk about the features of Smoky eyes for New Year's makeup 2018, then there are several of them:

  • haze is created by means of beige-brown shades;
  • you can enhance the focus on the eyes with the help of magnetic eyelashes with an uneven edge;
  • with active eye makeup, lipstick should be muted, best of all - nude.

Golden beige Smoky eyes are hard to imagine without blush or bronzers. The shade of powder and blush is selected according to skin type. Brown Smoky eyes eliminate the porcelain whiteness of the face, which means that you have to resort to tonal foundations or powders with a warm brownish tint.

shimmering sequins

If all the previous makeup options seem too simple for a New Year's party, then a glitter make-up will turn the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bmakeup upside down. The most popular are shadows with shimmering particles. With their help, you can transform the most ordinary makeup.

It is enough to refresh a nude make-up or classic Smoky eyes with sparkles, and the make-up will sparkle in a new way.

You should be careful when choosing shimmery shadows. Recall that the trend is golden, bronze and terracotta tones. Silver and blue gamma is undesirable in New Year's make-up, because the Earth Dog likes warm shades. Both nude lipsticks and rich lipstick with a matte effect will be able to complement glitter makeup.

Glitter makeup is not always expressive eyes. You can experiment in front of the mirror by picking up lipstick with shimmering particles. If the emphasis is on the lips, then you should not resort to too active shadows and eyeliners. Glitter should be dosed, otherwise the face will look brighter than a Christmas tree.

Makeup in retro style

Retro moods have been on the fashion catwalk for a long time. It's no surprise that makeup artists are increasingly experimenting with make-up, returning to trends that were relevant decades ago. The trend is trendy make-up in the spirit of dudes, as well as a colorful make-up in the style of the 90s. What will be the makeup, depends not only on personal preferences. It is important to make the image correctly: choose a dress, hairstyle, accessories. Girls who want to plunge into the fashion of the 60s can try various options"shooter" on the eyes and many shades of red lipstick. In this case, the skin of the face should be whitened, and the porcelain shade should be emphasized with soft pink blush.

Fashionistas who are closer to the fashion of the 90s can use rich cosmetics, foundation with a bronzer effect and bright shadows. But we must not forget that the Yellow Dog is categorically against rainbow makeup. Worth finding golden mean between the puffy make-up of the nineties and the moderate make-up of the current era.

acid makeup

Continuing the theme of bright New Year's makeup, one cannot fail to mention acid variations. It is worth immediately excluding pretentious images and ridiculous experiments with decorative cosmetics. Acid makeup for New Year's Eve 2018 involves the use of yellow shadows, because this is the favorite color of the spirit animal of the year.

If bright shades of a yellow shade come into play, then the lipstick should be pale. Mascara or a contrasting eyeliner will be able to emphasize the saturation of eye makeup. Yellow shades of an acid shade are well combined with grassy green, turquoise and brown shades.

Acid makeup will definitely look bright. In order for it to retain its festive look, but not to go beyond the bounds of decency, other contrasting elements should be abandoned. Sequins, shimmery lipstick and rhinestones are excluded. The tone of the face should be muted, and the lipstick should be soft, weightless and unobtrusive.

Futuristic make-up

Another fashion solution for a wild party. You should not choose this makeup for a New Year's corporate party. The futuristic make-up looks catchy, a little pretentious, and therefore does not fit with the usual office dress code. It is clear that relief is possible on New Year's Eve, but it is better to leave this makeup option for theme party or New Year's disco with friends.

What is interesting about futuristic makeup is the abundance of shine, contrasting elements and clear lines. In such a make-up, the presence of lipstick with a holographic effect or shimmering shadows is acceptable.

You can make a cat look or draw eyes, like Cleopatra. All these techniques emphasize the originality of makeup and do not contradict it, but the main component of a futuristic make-up is cosmetics with a pronounced shine. Not all women like this makeup, because during the party you will have to correct lipstick and check if the shadows have crumbled. Futuristic makeup will look expressive if all the lines are in place, and the color palette does not have halftones. Unlike smoky makeup, where shading is welcomed, such elements should not be in the makeup of the future.

To make the image expressive, it is necessary to pay attention not only to makeup, but also to other components. They must be in harmony with each other. If the choice fell on acid or futuristic makeup, then a romantic boho outfit or a spectacular Hollywood-style dress will be out of place.
