With special chic! What is the secret of French makeup? They just know how to look beautiful, natural, gentle and elegant at the same time. The emphasis in makeup is usually on the eyes and an even skin tone. Let's consider the nuances of makeup and secrets using the example of the most beautiful modern actress in France, a real Frenchwoman, Marion Cotillard.
The right cream
First of all, French women give their preference to proper skin cleansing and a good moisturizer. Before makeup, you need to cleanse your face well, then apply a toner, moisturize the skin, creating an even tone without flaws. That is why, before the ritual of applying cosmetics, French women use both a tonic and an expensive cream, which will not only take care of their skin, but also make it even and matte. Our girls are accustomed to applying cream first, then the base, and then a bunch of cosmetics that are not only visible on the face, but also create the effect of a mask.
Tone cream
French women use a light foundation that is barely visible on the skin. This feature can be called the most important in makeup. French women love and are accustomed to naturalness, and an inconspicuous foundation only helps them. First of all, they take care of the skin on a daily basis and achieve an even tone through cosmetic procedures, and not by the cosmetics itself. Therefore, all the girls in France look natural and at the same time mysterious.
Blush
Russian girls are used to contouring, creating the effect of a tanned face. But French women prefer simple, barely noticeable blush that emphasize cheekbones and naturalness. Peach shades and pink tones are preferred here. So it turns out that makeup looks natural without a ton of makeup.
Arrows
Instead of multi-layered shadows, these girls use pretty arrows. Increasingly, you can see that in any photo on the Internet, French women with beautiful thin arrows. Firstly, it adds piquancy to the image. Secondly, the arrows still look better than a ton of shadows, which do not decorate the face, but rather spoil it. Arrows, usually in the form of "cat's eyes", create an emphasis on the eyes. In combination with this, ladies from France use lengthening mascara, which, again, is applied in a maximum of two layers. The result is beautiful and naturally expressive eyes, emphasized by arrows.
Pomade
This is where the girls of France use red lipstick. No, of course, this is not the only lipstick shade they know and prefer. There are other shades, as a rule, they are close to red. And here's another feature - French women practically do not use lip pencil. The lipstick is applied as a stand-alone product. Of course, the quality of lipstick should be excellent.
