A girl named Norma Jean Baker was a factory worker when she had a fateful meeting with photographer David Convoyor. This event marked the beginning stellar career Norma, now known to the whole world under the pseudonym Marilyn Monroe.
What is hidden behind the stage image of a movie star?
Marilyn is the undisputed standard of sexuality combined with naivety. Having become a world-class actress, she was never able to get rid of her shortcoming: self-doubt. The demons of doubt and depression haunted her throughout her life, but Marilyn bravely moved forward in her profession, despite the pain and suffering that she had to endure.
One minute of airtime in Hollywood cost thirty-five thousand dollars. At the same time, they remembered her: even this fact did not stop her from perfectionist tendencies. She was still constantly late for filming due to endless redoing of her makeup. This revealed her deepest personality. Marilyn Monroe without makeup was not a phenomenal beauty, probably like any girl. But she had a very sweet appearance, and such pickiness about herself was the result of difficult experiences, fears, and depression.
However, one way or another, she became a real legend: cheerful and cheerful in appearance, deeply unhappy inside. Marilyn always tried to be perfect, as if she could disguise her selfhood behind makeup. And she did it well.
Makeup Marilyn
In 1946, Alan Snyder became the actress's personal makeup artist. He used techniques that gave her a truly fabulous look. Secrets and tricks of Marilyn Monroe in makeup for the most part belonged to the hand of this style maestro.
Many girls would like to look like the beautiful Marilyn. What are the subtleties of her makeup and how to reproduce the star image? Let's look at everything in order.
In general, her image is quite simple, but contains many tricks.
Eyes
Marilyn herself considered the eyelids to be one of the sexiest areas of the body. The radiant shade, shaded on the eyelids, does not catch the eye like other components of the makeup. But it is no less important in creating the image of a film star. Also, the star's makeup uses several types of eyeliner: a mandatory attribute is a radiant contour, as well as black colors. Sometimes in photographs of Marilyn you can see double arrows. In some looks, black eyeliner is not so noticeable; Alan Snyder used it, only emphasizing the lash line. The important part was to shape the eyebrows.
Looking at photographs of Marilyn Monroe without makeup, you can see that in some ways her beauty was quite ordinary. The way her eyes looked was largely the result of skillful makeup techniques.
The real Marilyn was very different from the one she tried to imagine.
Another integral component of the actress's makeup were fluffy false eyelashes. To make them look more natural, Snyder, at the actress’s request, shortened them a little.
Face tone
Monroe had a very light skin tone. She washed her face many times a day and also applied it to her face. a large number of layers of Vaseline. But this behavior was more likely to be compulsive. You don’t have to be like Marilyn in such details and just moisturize your skin well before applying makeup.
The application of tone was important. Marilyn was very beautiful, but in fact she did not have ideal proportions in everything. was one of the sources of her complexes. With Marilyn Monroe without makeup, this small flaw became a little noticeable. But now almost no one knows about her embarrassment at that time. When people look at her photos, they only see a legendary style icon.
So, one of Alan Snyder’s tasks was sculpting - creating different shades of appearance using powder perfect proportions. Those parts that needed to be visually smaller were corrected with darker shades. Then a small amount of blush was applied.
Lips
Snyder used a special trick to highlight this part of the face. The lip contour was outlined with darker shades, as opposed to those used in the center. The red color of the lips was in harmony with the color of the dress or the same bright nail polish.
An ordinary girl who, like everyone else, wanted to be truly happy - that was Marilyn Monroe without makeup. The life of the star was different: the image presented to the audience was strikingly different from the real Norma Jean Baker.
Marilyn Monroe without makeup was a defenseless girl struggling with loneliness and her fears. But on stage she always remained the unique and elegant Marilyn.

Contradictory nature, you can’t say anything... Having once exhibited your beautiful body for sale, subsequently painted herself into a corner. And there is nothing to be surprised about. And there is no point in being offended by the whole world for not appreciating the actress’s intelligence and dramatic talent.
An ambitious desire to become the first lady, but at the same time appear half naked and half drunk at an official celebration...
For some reason, I have a hard time imagining how she would crawl along the hood of a car to pick up a piece of the crushed skull of her wounded husband, as Jacqueline Kennedy courageously did........
Marilyn is a cocktail of external attractiveness, mental complexes, exorbitant ambitions... and touching naivety.

She did not have an affair with Kennedy, this is not true, you can read this in both Spotto and Taraborrelli. Plus, she never got very drunk, the reason she could look like that was the terrible mixture of drugs that the doctors injected her with, lovingly calling it a “vitamin cocktail.” You judge her very superficially.
Sveta19ss 03/21/2016 at 22:47
Well, you know better))) if you judge by the books of individual authors. There are a great many similar books, with opposite content and still bringing considerable income to the authors. But besides this, there are also documentaries with interviews from people who knew Marilyn. I somehow got used to trusting logic. Which is what I advise you, even if you sympathize with to a certain person limitless.
By the way, there is not a word about an affair with Kennedy in my commentary, so don’t make it up. It was about the desire to become the first lady. Although it would be stupid to deny the relationship between Kennedy and Monroe.
Before you fanatically talk about the high morality of your favorite, watch a fragment of the presentation of the Golden Globe to her (preferably in the original, when the announcer notes that out of excitement Marilyn did not calculate the dose of champagne and could not get up on stage to present the statuette on her own). Maybe she was also taking pills? carrot juice, and not champagne?)))
Honestly, I answered you only because I am familiar with your posts on other films and topics. But nevertheless, I regret my time talking with blind fanatics.

But the fact of the matter is that a lot of money is still being made on the name of this film star.
For example, in addition to Spotto and Taraborrelli with their version of the star’s death and their views on her life, there are also Joanna Light (a very interesting point of view), American writers Jay Margolis, Marilyn’s biographer, who conducted his own investigation for many years, as well as Richard Baskin, etc. and so on.
Whatever Marilyn is, she is, first of all, a living person with her own victories and failures, and therefore there is no point in either her deification or cruel criticism.
But if you read all these author-biographers, who almost always refer to some reliable sources, then you can come to a dead end from the amount of contradictory information.
As for the controversial story, you can simply type the phrase “Marilyn Monroe and John Kennedy” into a search engine and you will be presented with many documentaries with comments from friends, girlfriends and just close people of the star. And everyone has their own view and their own opinion. And how many books and articles have been written and rewritten on the topic of the famous love triangle.....
One day I wandered into the forum, and there was just a dance on Kennedy’s bones. Fans savored the details of his death and wanted him to burn in hell for the desecration of the honor of their favorite....... It was terrible to read.
So, having sifted through a bunch of different information at one time, I tried to resort to simple logic.
Firstly, the circumstances and customs of the time when beautiful girl without proper education, but with a great desire and childhood dreams about cinema, it was possible to make a career in this field - this is a certain image and .... bed jungle through which one had to wade through. Everything that moved had to be appeased. There are a lot of beauties, but you can count the number of film studios on one hand.....But this cannot be done without losses. Is your psyche breaking down and where can you get the strength to take a step towards a more serious stage?
Secondly, the state of euphoria from success, once experienced, constantly makes itself felt and abandoning it in order to break the old stereotype and take a step in a new direction with an unpredictable result is almost impossible.
The man finds himself backed into a corner.....
There is a desire to change your life, but the strength to practical steps and there is no more struggle. This is where metamorphoses occur in behavior, mental anguish, mistakes, self-flagellation and.... mistakes again. “I want” alone won’t get you far.
For example, congratulating the president on his birthday... What was that? Was it really an attempt to show oneself to the world in a new role or was it just another whim that finally crossed out all plans for a great future?.....
So it turns out to be a continuous lump of contradictions, and with all my sympathy for this woman, I cannot and do not want to see her only in the role of a victim of circumstances. Moreover, she was not really stupid...

But wait, I don't think she's an angel. I know she was selling herself. That she had a strong craving for exhibitionism, for shocking, which can explain her choice of a “naked” dress. I know that, no matter what, she liked the attention, even if she was treated only as a sex symbol. When she tried to change her life, she didn't try to quit drugs, and when she was pregnant either. Personally, I see this as the reason for her failures. But on the other hand, drug addicts sometimes even with family support and loving people they can’t quit, and no one supported Marilyn.
But she was very kind person, it is a fact. Did you know that she continued to communicate with the children of DiMaggio and Miller even after breaking up with them, that she was involved in charity work, but never advertised it, that she was very generous and kind with friends, did not spare the last money for them, she took care of to his unlucky mother, after all. When, after a long friendship, she decided to break up with Natasha Lytess, she first demanded that the studio keep her job with decent pay (since she was only kept at that time because she worked with Marilyn). You see, I was offended by the derogatory way you wrote about her desire to become the first lady and then about the pieces of her skull. Why do you think she wouldn't crawl on the hood? Because she didn't care about the people close to her? So you are very wrong. I repeat, I don’t think that she is an angel, but in my opinion, she didn’t deserve such words either. Of course, compared to Jacqueline, she looks vulgar, perhaps undignified and ridiculous in her supposed desire to be the first lady, but compare what kind of childhood and youth did Jacqueline have, what kind of education did she receive, and what did Monroe have? These women, by the will of fate, went through completely different life path and at some point they crossed paths, but why compare them? Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was certainly an interesting, elegant, strong and respectable woman. But so did Marilyn.
Look, I just explained why I wrote under your comment, because I see our topic has gone a little in the other direction)
And regarding the love triangle with Kennedy, I read what you recommended and other books, and even got into the declassified FBI files))) it’s clear that nothing is clear)) and yet there is actual evidence of a serious or more or less long-term relationship not with them, someone said something and that was it. This may or may not be true. But it’s really hard for me to believe that she could blackmail them by revealing their affair and demand that they leave their wives in order to marry her. She just never told reporters about her personal life, did not complain about her husbands or lovers. And she never wanted to get married, the first time her aunt insisted, the second time DiMaggio’s ardent love overcame her uncertainty about them as a couple, and Miller actually announced the wedding to the media even before he proposed to her, so there’s no choice didn't leave it. And then bam, she got stuck in marriage. Well, maybe because Kennedy. We'll never know the truth here)
Sveta19ss 03/23/2016 at 20:08
My words in the first post are my opinion and it is not for the delight of anyone’s ears, but also not for the purpose of humiliation. Being the first lady or trying on this role are different things, that’s why I drew an analogy of behavior in extreme situation, perhaps harshly, but there was no other way.
As for the rest, we will find out the truth sooner or later) It’s just that the time has not come yet. And the theme of all sorts of fairy tales about blackmail is so that people buy a book with the next “sensation”.
The author can only give direction for thought, throw a hint between the lines before starting to confuse the tracks, but never put the final point. Everyone wants to live and eat, and also make the most of a bright and scandalous brand.
There are very sensible thoughts in these works, but they are turned inside out.....deliberately or through ignorance - time will tell.
If you're interested, watch another movie (I'll give you the title in a private message). You can read the book “Jacqueline Kennedy. A Life Told by Herself” (2014) so as not to claim that there was no romance between Monroe and Kennedy.
Not everything is so simple in this world and sometimes the recklessness of some public people, even if they are charming and attractive, becomes a trump card for evil geniuses...
P.S.
There is always a choice. If I didn't want to marry Arthur Miller, I wouldn't. Yes, I would lose a piece of fame and some opportunities, but at the same time I would retain self-respect. And I would feel like a person, not a thing.
She wanted to have children, but at the same time she did not give up alcohol (her favorite champagne) and drugs.
She wanted to be loved, but at the same time she easily started new romances in front of Joe DiMaggio, who remained devoted to her even after death....
She loved to flirt and win male attention, not paying attention to broken families and the number of lovers... For her, sex is like cleaning shoes (her own expression), but at the same time she hoped for a man's strong shoulder, protection and fidelity... .
She slept with other people's husbands, but at the same time did not feel resentment or envy towards their wives...
Innocent people waited for hours for her to appear on the movie set and endured her struggle with fears...., countless takes were made even for those actors who did everything well, but had the misfortune of being in the frame with her....
And yet SHE was a kind person (but where is the line?) and vulnerable....(a monstrous mixture, but it’s true)

In my opinion, Marilyn deserves respect that having grown up in terrible conditions in foster families without parents, she was able to make her way in Hollywood through all the beautiful actresses of whom there are 20,000 for one role in Hollywood and rise to the level of the President of America, and this in her 60s. Kennedy is like Bill Clinton - if it weren't for the sex scandal, what would have happened?
If Marilyn already had three or two husbands, then why did she need a president, in the sense that in America this is a temporary term, for 4 years or even 8 years. She thinks she would find herself a rich husband with such fame. In Russia, besides the president, there are no other men for Russian women (since politicians in Russia suppress all other men, let’s take even Khodorkovsky), and in America, look how many cool, well-promoted men, businessmen or athletes, then in our time she was dating some kind of Afro - an American rapper like Kardashian or an athlete Ronaldo or a businessman Zuckerberg and would be no worse than the president (she would be in the newspapers every day), that is, at that time there were a lot of cool men who were written about in the newspapers constantly in America - then why should she live according to rules and rituals and being the first lady - where she had to do only what she was told and live for show for the country - when she could do what she wanted and have fun as she wanted and so on with her lot of money and her fame.. The President lives for society, and she could live for herself! I lived as I wanted and there was no stress and no responsibility like the president’s wife and her husband!
Apparently she wanted to promote herself against the backdrop of the president, and that’s why she was killed in the 60s. You also need to know the boundaries, she was maybe one of the mistresses, so she didn’t have any special significance for the president, so she got him with her scandals in his name. She just had to use all of America that was already at her feet and leave behind the man who no longer wanted her. Nowadays, even for making a comment about the president, everyone on the Internet can block you, or it will even be worse - that is, you had to understand what she can and cannot do! We had a scandal in America that a boy wore a T-shirt with the president, so everyone quickly blocked him on the Internet, they say he was doing PR on the name of the president, which he did not approve of - and then Marilyn showed that they had a relationship so clearly and the president simply didn’t like it , since he apparently didn’t want her to promote herself in his name. Even in our time you can’t write anything so easily, but here it was the 60s. It is obvious that such scandals will attract a lot of attention, so in America all sorts of secret services This is not allowed, just like in Russia. They will only allow it if in reality the president has already given permission. )
An object of admiration, imitation, inspiration, a real style icon - this is all about her, the main blonde of all time, the great Marilyn Monroe. From the very beginning dizzying career to this day, her seductive image and style are copied by thousands of women, her height and weight are considered the standard, and this is not surprising, because Marilyn is the very embodiment of femininity.
On June 1, 1926, Norma Jeane Mortenson (who later took her mother's surname Baker) was born in Los Angeles - the future Hollywood star Marilyn Monroe. Difficult childhood spent in shelters and foster families, her youth at a factory - it would seem that nothing foreshadowed a dizzying career for Norma. However, her natural beauty noted photographer David Conover, who was reporting on the plant workers. It was he who advised the future star to try himself as a model. The girl’s rather tall height for those times (163 cm) and weight (about 55 - 60 kg) made her proportions ideal for photos.
In 1945, Norma Baker began collaborating with the Blue Book modeling agency: it was during this period that the naturally brown-haired woman decided to radically change her hair color and style. This is how Marilyn Monroe's famous hairstyle came about - platinum fluffy shoulder-length curls. Then Norma takes on a more sonorous pseudonym, under which millions recognize her.
Monroe's film career, which began rapidly in the 1950s, became an incentive for the actress to create her own recognizable, unique style. Marilyn shows herself in public and on screens in seductive, sometimes even provocative, feminine outfits, which were instantly copied by numerous fashionistas of that time.
Iconic makeup: Marilyn Monroe's Hollywood look
Perfect porcelain skin, lush eyelashes, neat eyeliner and bright red lipstick (pictured below) - this is a recognizable image that has become a true classic. Makeup in the style of Marilyn Monroe is still relevant today, because it emphasizes beauty in the most advantageous way female face without overshadowing its natural features.
And, of course, the famous makeup in the style of Marilyn Monroe is unthinkable without the famous “front sight” (on next photo) - the actress made the mole on her cheek her “highlight” and certainly emphasized it with a brown pencil.
All facets of temptation: Marilyn Monroe's style on screen and in life
The actress's ideal parameters, height and weight allowed her to wear almost any outfit - Marilyn looked incredibly feminine even in wide men's shirts and short trousers. However, the actress gave her preference to emphatically feminine, seductive outfits that hug her figure.
Dresses
The main item in the actress's wardrobe has always been dresses.
Throughout her life, the actress's weight fluctuated slightly, but her proportions remained unchanged - and Marilyn skillfully emphasized her seductive curves with tight-fitting styles.
Many of Marilyn Monroe's dresses have become iconic and recognizable: a snow-white dress with a deep neckline and a flowing pleated skirt, so impressively captured in the photo fluttering in the wind. A translucent, tight-fitting, flesh-colored dress, decorated with rhinestones, in which the actress congratulated the president on his birthday (despite its apparent lightness, its weight was several kilograms). Cyclamen bustier dress with a bow and matching gloves from the movie “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” (in the next photo). Black dress with a white bow on the chest - they all became some of the most recognizable wardrobe items in the history of fashion.
Stills from the film "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"
In the film star’s wardrobe, there are two favorite styles of dresses: a tight-fitting sheath that fits like a second skin and a fitted dress with a flared skirt (pictured below).
Many of Marilyn's dresses had a very deep neckline and exposed her shoulders and arms. To wear such revealing dresses with dignity and control her weight, Marilyn performed exercises with dumbbells every day.
Skirts and trousers
IN ordinary life preferred a discreet style: one of the actress’s favorite outfits was a simple sweater or turtleneck combined with a tight-fitting knee-length pencil skirt.
Marilyn chose smooth fabrics and preferred simple ones basic colors- black, grey, white or beige. Flared, flowing skirts were also present in the star's wardrobe - she combined them with shirts or cropped tops.
The actress's height allowed her to wear cropped trousers - many photos have been preserved in which the star is captured in her favorite plaid trousers.
Tops, blouses and jackets
Jackets were a favorite item in the star's everyday wardrobe - she preferred narrow, fitted models, often trimmed with fur.
The actress's wardrobe included many sweaters, turtlenecks and tops that today we would call crop tops - cropped models that end under the bust. However, with the exception of photos from resorts, the star did not expose her belly and combined such tops with high-waisted skirts and trousers. This style visually increased height and emphasized feminine proportions.
Another favorite item of the film star's wardrobe is white shirts in men's style. Marilyn tied them under her breasts, tucked them into her trousers, or wore them to graduation. Ideal height and the weight of the actress allowed her to look seductive even in loose clothes.
Outerwear
In public, Marilyn often appeared in luxurious or capes.
The actress had a favorite white fur coat from ermine. were also present in the diva’s wardrobe: draping it over her shoulders, Marilyn even descended from the plane like a real diva. The next photo shows the actress’s favorite black and white coat.
Shoes
“Give a woman a pair of high-heeled shoes and she will conquer the whole world,” said the great Monroe. Marilyn knew what she was talking about - she owes her famous exhilarating gait partly to high-heeled shoes. Pumps and open-toe sandals with thin heels are the actress’s favorite models. To visually increase her height and make her legs even longer, Marilyn often chose nude models.
Beauty secrets of the great blonde
The actress’s ideal parameters and weight are not so much a gift of nature as the result of the star’s continuous work on herself. Every morning the actress began with physical exercise with small dumbbells - they were the ones who helped the actress strengthen pectoral muscles and be proud of your seductive bust, and also maintain thin waist. Swimming helped the actress quickly lose weight before filming.
The actress's height required her to maintain a weight of 53 - 55 kg, and at the beginning acting career The actress's menu consisted mainly of fast food (hamburgers and peanut butter). Subsequently, Hollywood nutritionists developed a special diet for Marilyn that would help her quickly get into shape before filming. The actress maintained her weight by eating mostly proteins and avoiding complex carbohydrates.
The Marilyn Monroe phenomenon has many components: it is not only beauty, but also unique style, naturalness, the ability to reveal your femininity with the help of clothes, and also confidence in your irresistibility and self-love.
The legend of world cinema, the dazzling blonde Marilyn Monroe, suffered from self-doubt all her life and spent her entire life trying to overcome her complexes. This is confirmed by all her chroniclers.
Monroe received serious support from the German Jew Natasha Leitess, who taught Monroe acting.
From 1948 to 1955, Monroe and Lytess were in a lesbian relationship and even lived together for a couple of years. In 1962, shortly before her death, Natasha Lytess made notes in which she described in detail her acquaintance with the future movie star.
Lytess and Monroe met in 1946. Still very young, Monroe did not know how to present herself at all, she was awkward and uptight. And because of this, she didn’t make an impression at all.

In her youth, Monroe was completely unimpressive. Charisma and fame came to her later
“She was afraid of everything,” Natasha Lytess recalled. According to the teacher, the future great actress and object of desire for men all over the world was in desperate need of care and affection. Among Monroe’s oddities, the teacher noted the habit of walking naked all day long.

Monroe hated sex. But I was always desperate for support
Monroe never considered herself beautiful and sexy. Over time, she learned to keep her fears and complexes secret. But she always carefully watched how she dressed, made up, and moved - according to Monroe, without all this she was simply nothing. And she had nothing but the body that everyone craved.
The paradox is that according to Lytess, Monroe hated sex and everything connected with it. She also hated compliments in the style of “you are so sexy”, which were given to her, trying to flatter her.
Marilyn Monroe, 1950s.
To successfully film, Marilyn needed constant support - to the point that Natasha always had to hold her hand during filming.
Monroe always asked that Lytess be as close to her as possible. If the shooting conditions allowed and Natasha was not included in the frame.

To successfully act, Marilyn needed constant support
“If only Monroe’s head was in the frame, I could hold her hand to give her courage,” the teacher recalled.
Lytess also claimed that she had to save Monroe when she swallowed pills.
“I found her in bed, terribly pale and lethargic. And it wasn't pretense. When asked what happened, Marilyn replied: “Nothing.” Her mouth was full of some kind of rubbish. I was so scared that I hit her. The doctor later said that Marilyn had swallowed 16 tablets. It was a lethal dose."

Marilyn Monroe: death suits her
On August 5, 1962, at the golden “Balzac age” of 36, Norma Jeane Mortenson, who once took the stage name Marilyn Monroe, died of an overdose of sleeping pills. At 4:25 am personal doctor Monroe Hyman Engelberg calls the Los Angeles police to report the death of his patient. The police arrive to find Monroe lying naked in bed, face down on the pillow. On the floor near the bed there is an empty package of sleeping pills, on the night table there are fourteen vials of barbiturates.
Allan "Whitey" Schneider is a personal makeup artist, stylist and close friend Marilyn Monroe, responsible for turning an ordinary-looking girl into sexy beauty, which was admired by the whole world. Ivan Bezugliy talks about the master’s main beauty tricks.
Transformation: Marilyn Monroe at the very beginning of her career (left) and at the peak of fame (right)Long before Kim Kardashian and her makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic seriously excited the Internet with all sorts of contouring, strobing and highlighting, there was another, no less famous couple with your beauty secrets. In Hollywood, Allan "Whitey" Schneider has always been listed as Marilyn Monroe's personal makeup artist, stylist, and close friend. They first met in 1946, when she successfully passed her first acting audition at the 20th Century Fox studio. From then on, Allan took responsibility for her makeup - both on set and in life. He was by her side throughout her meteoric career, from her debut film Monkey Business in 1952 to her final makeover, which he tearfully performed on the day of her funeral in 1962. All those legendary images, which still serve as a source of inspiration and an object of admiration, are the work of his golden hands. We learned and collected together several professional secrets of Mr. Schneider and his muse - they, what is most interesting, are relevant to this day.
1. Before foundation, Allan always applied a thin layer of Vaseline to moisturize his skin and give it a glow in the spotlight. Nowadays, when choosing a tone due to its range can result in a slight headache, this method is not particularly suitable. But you shouldn’t ignore Vaseline as a handy highlighter - it looks great on the cheekbones and under the eyebrow.
2. Volume to the lips. In an era when lips were not yet enlarged with injections, for the sake of plumpness one had to resort to tricks and use at least five products of different shades. For the illusion of depth, Allan outlined the lips with a chocolate-colored pencil. Using a brick-colored pencil, I stroked my lips from the periphery to the center. Using a bright red pencil, moving from the center, I mixed all the shades together. In order not to disturb the recreated depth and volume, he used pencils near the outline as carefully as possible. Placed a dot in the center lower lip cream highlighter and completed the procedure by applying a “fat” lip balm on top (namely a balm, not a gloss).
3. Wet eye makeup at that time it was considered the height of sexuality. In the absence of metallic textures, Allan simply applied a thin layer of Vaseline or coconut oil over the compact eyeshadow.
4. The secret of white shadows. Actress Greta Garbo was spotted using one make up trick, which Allan successfully used with his muse. To noticeably widen the look throughout the entire eyelid, it is enough to shade white shadows (powder), and place a dot of shadows of the same shade, but only with a pearlescent texture, in the inner corners of the eyes.
5. He always combined several shades of eyeliner- I drew the outline with black and brown eyeliner at the same time, with white eyeliner I highlighted the eyelash contour from the inside and the outer corner, and inside the eyes I put a pair of red dots - this gave the whites brightness or whiteness.
6. Visually make your nose smaller. Although Marilyn Monroe had forced rhinoplasty, she still thought her nose was too big. To correct this deficiency, the makeup artist simply touched the tip of the nose with pink blush.
7. False eyelashes this couple always mercilessly cut exactly in half, gluing them only on the outside. This made it possible to make the eyes elongated and almond-shaped.
8. Eyebrow shape the thing, of course, is very individual, but Allan always intensively highlighted their shape, carefully drawing the “triangle”. First of all, to reduce the width of the forehead of a star client. In this case, this trick works, in all other cases it requires attention to avoid unnecessary housework.
