Some ladies consider them as a necessity due to the poor eyesight, but glasses have actually become a huge fashionable hit. So, there is no need to reach for your contacts next time when you are getting ready in the morning, just grab those chic glasses and apply extravagant makeup – and off you go! Makeup application paired with glasses can be quite difficult to maintain, but there is no need to stress about it. Here are a few essential tips to help you combine your makeup with those cute glasses.
- Contour the lines
Sometimes your frames can create shadows below the eyes or the glasses themselves an cast shadow on your eyes. Since you cannot completely exclude that from happening, the best solution would be to conceal those shadows. Use a blend of lighter-toned foundation on the skin just under your eyes and around your nose. Or use a warm-hued concealer that is at least two shades lighter than your skin and just gently blends it with your fingertips under the eyes. This face line contouring will also utterly refresh your skin, and to get an even greater effect you can fully contour your face and apply a bronzer on your cheekbones and forehead.
- Go bold with the lashes
Many beauty experts claim that you should pair the frames with subtle or natural-looking eye makeup. However, there is no strict rule about that and you can do whatever suits you. Another fantastic tip is to highlight the lashes. You can line the inner corners of your lower lash line with sensuous eyeliner and then use an eyelash curler to enhance the lashes before applying mascara. If you are tired of using mascara and you strive for something more elegant and durable, then you should pamper your glasses (and makeup) with silk eyelashes. Mascaras can be extremely heavy but if you put eyelash extensions you would boost up your entire look, and you wouldn’t have to worry about looking messy.
- Nurture your brows
Neat and clearly shaped eyebrows are the essence of your complete makeup style. Next, to keeping the brows clean, you should focus that the shape of your brows matches with the style of your glasses. When it comes to makeup, if you have full and thick brows and you wear big and dark frames, then you don’t have to put any heavy makeup. On the other hand, if you have a pale complexion and hair color, hence light eyebrows, then you should use an eyebrow pencil that is darker than your skin tone, and lightly fill in your brows along the natural arch using short strokes. Also, make sure that you trim them from time to time if they are too long.
- Focus on the eyes
Sometimes keeping it simple doesn’t do the trick with your glasses, or you are just tired of wearing only black eyeliner. You should definitely play with eye makeup and use more luxurious makeup. Start off by applying striking cat-eye eyeliner and top it up with eye-catching eyeshadow color. Cat eyes are great since you can create the shape you want your eyes to be, and still look extravagant. Using eyeshadow can be tricky since you have to consider whether you need day or night makeup. However, when choosing the eyeshadow color make sure that it goes with the color of your frames. You can smudge an eye pencil in any color on your lids close to the lash line and you would achieve that sexy look. Plus, warm smoky eyes makeup will draw focus on your eyes, but also it goes perfectly along any frame.
- Let’s not forget about those lips
As with any makeup look, with spectacles or without, in order to get that a dramatic look you should either highlight the eyes or the lips, but it is crucial not to overdo both. Bold lipstick certainly adds immediate polish to any look. If you happen to have full-rimmed frames or semi-rimless frames and you are able to rock any eyeshadow colors, then you should amp up your makeup with a bold red or pink lipstick. For a more timid and elegant look, don’t over-enhance the eyes with dark colors, but use a neutral shade lipstick or use a shimmery lip gloss instead.
Eyeglasses today might be a fashion accessory, but you should still have your unique style. Experimenting with frames and makeup techniques will help you create that unique look, just bear in mind to always keep your glasses clean.
