Make-up will help to create a "thin" face - a narrow oval and well-defined cheekbones. Makeup artists are sure: with the help of modern means and techniques of facial modelling, any transformation becomes possible. Recently, the "elongated oval" is gaining popularity. To put on makeup, you need a sculpting palette, concealer, highlighter, lipstick and lip gloss.

How to make a "thin" face: 5 rules

The main rule of creating a "thin" face: areas that need to be visually reduced are darkened. Those that need to be emphasized are highlighted. For darkening, you need to use powder 1-2 shades darker than the natural skin colour or bronzer to correct the oval of the face. For highlighting, a highlighter is suitable. For everyday use, it is better to take a product without reflective particles.

To create a "thin" face, usually, darken the temples and cheekbones, and highlight the area under the cheekbones, forehead and chin. In order not to miss, you can stretch your lips with a duck: the cheekbones will immediately become more noticeable. The finishing touch is to lightly blend the makeup with a fluffy wide brush for a more natural look.

The second important rule is to tint the bruises under the eyes. Blue circles are the worst enemies of a "thin" face, they visually expand the oval. For camouflage, use a concealer slightly lighter in skin tone. Apply the product with your fingertips using soft “hammering” movements.

The third step is to mask the double chin. To visually "remove" the second chin, on the lower part of the face (along the contour of the chin), it is necessary to apply powder a tone darker than the natural skin tone. The same shade will work for the neck and décolleté. Directly the area of ​​the double chin needs to be lightened with the help of powder.

The fourth step is to improve the shape of the nose. A wide nose makes the face more massive, so it should be visually narrowed. For this, use a tonal base, powder or bronzer. The product should be applied to both sides of the nose and blend well. Highlight the back of the nose with a highlighter, apply a little peach blush on the tip. But the main thing is not to overdo it.

Lip makeup. For a "thin" face, it is best to make the lips with a bow. To do this, a slightly darker shade of lipstick is applied to the centre of the lips than to the rest of the area. Another option is to apply a drop of sheer, shimmery gloss to the centre of your lower lip.

In addition, neat arrows highlighting the outer corners of the eyes will give expressiveness to the round face. You can draw them with eyeliner or pencil, then shade. Another effective technique is to brush your eyebrows with setting gel. It is necessary that the hairs lookup.

Full face makeup: rules and tips

1. Don't pluck your eyebrows too thin. The shape of the eyebrows should be natural, the colour should be noticeable, not too pale. Use a pencil, mascara, or eye shadow to make the hairs stand out and bright.

2. It is better to use black or brown mascara, not coloured. Preferably - lengthening.

3. When using pencil and eyeliner, try to draw not clear lines and bright defiant arrows, but slightly blurred and shaded. It is better to use shadows matte, not pearlescent, without sparkles.

4. Don't put too much mascara on your lower lashes.

5. Try to visually make thin lips plumper.

So you can easily emphasize the merits of your face and mask the flaws.
