5 Tips for Eyeliner Tight-Lining for Beginners

Eyes are the catchiest feature of your face. Therefore, while going for a make-up look, eye make-up is most integral part of it. If you are a beginner or going for a natural or no makeup look, eyeliner tight lining is a better option than putting a prominent cat-eye liner. It makes your eye line prominent, make lashes look longer and makes you look more awake. Eye-liner tight ling is a technique in which you tight line your upper water line to make your eyes line prominent by making lashes look thicker and longer. Yet achieving a perfect liner look is quite impossible for beginners. Therefore, following are few techniques that can help you to decide what color to put, where to put and how to put to flaunt with your natural eye makeup look.

Type of Eyeliner You Must Choose:

First of all you should know that there are 3 basic types of eyeliners (Pencil, gel and liquid). Gel liners are thick in consistency typically comes in a pot with a brush. On the other hand, liquid eyeliners are most advanced category of eyeliners. They help you to achieve perfect eye look if you master the skills.  However, playing with a gel liner and liquid eyeliners is not that easy if you are a beginner. Therefore, pencil eyeliner is the best option for you.

 

  1. Readying Your Eyeliner for Application:

Pencil eyeliner is the easiest way to achieve perfect everyday look. Choose waterproof eyeliner for tight lining in order to avoid replication on lower waterline. One of the common mistakes people make is not sharpening their liners before every application. Tight lining means applying liner to join your waterline with your lash line which requires precision which dull and round off points cannot provide. In addition to this sharpening your equipment helps you to remove bacteria that are collected on your makeup implements.

  1. Choose The Right-Color:

Different color liners are used to create different effects. Selecting right shade is again fuzz. While black looks perfectly fine for bold and striking look. However, Brown and grey are best training colors as they are more forgiving if you make a blunder. Warm browns, bronze and cooper family shades are perfect for Blue gazes. Try nudes for brighter and wide opened eyes.

  1. Get Set Go:

Take your eyeliner, sit and plat your hand on a flat surface that will provide your hand support to stand in place to avoid shakiness. Now put your palm on your cheeks for further support and start tight lining your eyes. Now tilt your face a little backward and use end of a dry makeup brush to press your lashes upward and to get the view of your upper waterline. Now start lining your waterline from outer corner to inner corner. Repeat the step 2-3 depending on how deep you want color to be. After finishing fill in the space between lashes by gently making dots between them. Now curl your lashes and you are ready to go.

4. Use Cotton Swab To Fix The Mistake:

Even makeup pro’s mess-up with eyeliners. Don’t worry, you can fix your mistake by dipping a cotton swab in makeup remover and use it carefully to remove mistakes. On other way to correct the mistake is to dab cotton swab in a concealer and apply it on the required area to fix the smudges on eyelids.

Five Pro Eye Makeup Tips for Hypersensitive Eyes

Are you annoyed of your constantly teary bloodshot eyes like I am? I have hypersensitive eyes. Eye sensitivity can be caused by several things, mine are sensitive to sunlight. I stick to wearing shades a lot but that doesn’t allow me to show off my heavy makeup jobs. And no matter how good your eye makeup is, a reddened teary eye can just mess up the whole look. So, today I’ll share with you a few tips that I use before applying my eye makeup and they are of great help.

  • Take anti-allergy:

Anti-allergy medications or antihistamine can help a lot before you start applying your eye makeup. If you plan on wearing a heavy eye makeup and you know that your eyes are sensitive and might get teary, pop a pill half an hour before you start putting your makeup on. Of course everyone doesn’t like taking a tablet for this (petty as per them) reason, for those individuals eye drops can serve as a good solution.

  • Prime It Up:

Never a day has gone by when I didn’t wear my eye makeup without a primer. Partially because I like to wear my foundation after I’m done applying my eye makeup; this technique doesn’t let the flecks of eye shadow smudge my cheeks. So to provide a surface to stick to for my eye shadow, I always use a primer. It helps control the allergic reaction that products might trigger by serving as a barrier between my skin and product.

  • Look Out For Carmine:

This is what I call nipping the problem in its bud. Carmine is a product derived from an insect, and it is used in products of pink, purple and red tints. Even though the carminic acid is refined before being used in the final product, it doesn’t lose its ability to cause skin agitation. The intensity with which the skin reacts to carminic acid is different in different people; some might notice the side effects right and some might feel it weeks later. Once you’ve discovered that you’re allergic to it, steer clear from it by looking for carmine or its synonymous identifications such as red #4, carminic acid, C.I. 75470 or E120.

  • Hypoallergenic Makeup:

Your safest bet is to buy eye makeup that is designed specifically for easily irritated eyes. Nowadays, there are a million brands out there that sell hypoallergenic makeup, specially for eyes. These products are manufactured by steering clear of products that are obviously harmful to eyes in both short and long-term. Mostly, the ingredients comprise of natural derivatives. If you’re looking for good hypoallergenic makeup to buy, consider this.  

  • The Mascara Trick:

My eyes are easily irritated by mascaras as well. I’ve tried using a lot of mascaras designed for sensitive eyes, but I’ve found that what works the best for me is leaving the roots free of product. If you have naturally dark eyelashes, you are blessed because that means you can leave the roots free of product and protect your eye from getting the product in.

These tips you should help you control the effects of terribly teary and bloodshot eyes.

Designers shine the Kenyan Flag at UNCTAD 14

U14news28_FashionShow_930x300

Bold patterns, striking poses and African rhythms spilled out on the roof of the Kenyatta International Convention Centre on Tuesday night as the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) hosted the crème of Kenyan fashion at UNCTAD 14 in Nairobi.

A collaboration between the United Nation body and the hottest Kenyan clothing and accessory brands may once have seemed like an unlikely partnership. The fashion show highlighted the vast potential of creative industries to create jobs in developing countries such as Kenya. For that to happen, clothing companies in particular will need to change the way they work.

The UNCTAD event was organized by Ann McCreath, a designer and managing director of Kenyan fashion house KikoRomeo. “If we are just manufacturing for the Walmarts and the H&Ms of the world, it just means a lot of people employed on the minimum wage,” she said.

“If top international luxury designer brands come and work with our people in the slums, again it’s a very minimal wage that’s being paid and all the added value stays in the developed country where the product is sold or where the brand originates.”

Ms. McCreath said she sees a different path that can bring better results for creative industries, including fashion in developing countries.

“It’s important to push out our designer and affordable luxury brands because they raise the ceiling and leave a lot more space for everyone else,” she said.

“Fashion is also key to changing the perception of our country and its sophistication level. If they create a “wow” factor in a developed market, everyone imagines a whole string of things that are associated in terms of lifestyle. At the end of the day, fashion leads lifestyle. That means Kenya can sell its tea and coffee and everything else by having fabulous fashion out there.”

Tuesday’s fashion show embraced both high-street and haute couture labels to show the breadth of Kenyan fashion. It featured ying-yang-inspired pieces from Waithira Kibuchi for VIVO and a selection of Lornah Kiplagat’s Sports “athleisure” wear in eye-catching patterns. Some of Lornah’s designs were worn by First Lady Margaret Kenyatta during the Half marathon for Beyond Zero campaign.

Designers Jamil Walji and pieces for KikoRomeo also featured. These were accessorized with bags from Arnold Muriithi for Suave, Akinyi Odongo for Honey from the Moon and John Kakeve for Sandstorm. Premium jewellery by Embody Accessories and Le Collane di Betta finished off the looks.

UNCTAD believes that creative industries like art, design, cinema, advertising, fashion and tourism can bring significant gains for developing countries.

“The creative industries represent the new frontier of development, moving on from industrialization, commodities exploitation, manufacturing, and now onto the knowledge-based economy,” said Bonapas Onguglo, senior economic affairs officer, chief of the creative industries programme of UNCTAD. “They will widen and deepen opportunities for growth, trade and economic development.”

The fashion show gave United Nations and Kenyan Government officials a chance to let their hair down during intense negotiations at UNCTAD 14. Music by Kenyan star Suzanna Owiyo prompted UNCTAD Sectretary-General Mukhisa Kituyi to leap from his seat and lead an impromptu dance around the venue.
