eye makeup Flashcards
○ Protect the eyeball from local injury
○ Aid in regulating the light reaching the eye
○ Tear film maintenance
○ Tear flow
○ Distributing tear film over the eye surface when blinking
eyelids
help to protect our vision by defending against debris and signaling the eyelids to close
Eyelash
eyelashes do not lose pigment with age (t or f)
T
eyelashes are influenced by androgen (t or f)

Types of eye makeup products
- mascara
- eyeliners
- eyebrow liners
- eyeshadows
- eye makeup removers
● Produce an intense look and make eyelashes thicker, longer, and darker
● Brings out contrast between iris and sclera
● Consists of blend of waxes, pigments, texturizers, emulsifier, and solvents
MASCARA
● Help draw a precise line at the base of the eyelashes to contour the eyes
● Gives illusion of larger or smaller eye
● Made as emulsions consisting of water, texturizers, pigments, emollients, and emulsifiers
○ With polymers to increases viscosity, texture and adhesion
● Made into pencil, liquid, gel/creme, and cake forms
EYELINERS
- Designed to accentuate the natural line and natural hair, create fuller brows, or cover areas that have no hair
● Formulated to be harder than the eyeliner and lip liner
EYEBROW LINERS
● Add depth and dimension to the eyes and help draw attention to the eye appearance or color
● Applied to the eyelids
● Most commonly available as powders, but also as gel, creme, and stick
EYESHADOWS
● Designed to remove eye makeup from the eyelashes and eyelids
● Most popular forms are creams, lotions, and remover pads
EYE MAKEUP REMOVERS
Types of mascaras
- cake mascaras
- liquid mascaras
● Has a waxy texture and is applied to the eyelashes using an applicator brush
● Based on soap/wax/pigment blend which is emulsified when a wet brush is applied to its surface
Cake Mascaras
● Waxes increase the glossy appearance, while soaps give a dull appearance (t or f)
T
