Asian eyebrows

Asian eyebrows also have the main three classical shapes - a circle, a square and a triangle. Tk among the peoples of Asia, the bridge of the nose is wide, it is customary to correct it somewhat narrowing the shape on the bridge of the nose. The only exceptions are Japanese women, where the traditionally round face shape is considered ideal.

Asian form - Korea- a more square shape, closer to the European shape. Koreans have the lightest skin among the Asian peoples, which they are indisputably proud of and in every possible way cultivate their involvement in the European race.

Asian form - China- samurai. Ponytails belligerently rush up.

Asian form - Japan- semicircular - in the shape of the growing moon, in every possible way emphasize the aristocratic lunar oval of the face of their owner. They can be rounder or straighter, but always feminine and flowing. The Japanese form is an exception when round eyebrows are chosen for a round face) Tk the round shape of the eyebrows emphasizes the round shape of the face. For moon-faced Japanese women (in whose culture a woman's face should look like a full moon), this is just what you need)

The information you received does not mean that after asking the nationality of the client, you should start modeling the form with words - I know everything. Be sure to discuss with the client the most comfortable eyebrow shape for him. Perhaps a Chinese woman is deep in her soul, a Japanese woman, and a stern Arab woman dreams of becoming a gentle Indian))) But knowing the oriental traditions of building will definitely help you in your work, as it has helped me more than once. I really love working with Asians, they feel it and love me too, and come to me) And they are in Russia, and even a lot) “Our” eastern women living in the post-Soviet space (both Asians and the Caucasus) successfully get into one of the above groups. Moreover, they know their shape and are sincerely upset when the masters skillfully transform exquisite oriental eyebrows into a classic average European shape that does not at all emphasize the oriental charm)

Pay attention to the heads in the Chinese and Japanese forms - it is this shape that narrows the bridge of the nose too wide.

Asian girls look exotic and always attract the attention of others. Their brown eyes are called mysterious and inviting. But if a Russian girl sometimes just needs to go through the centuries with shadows and make up her eyelashes, makeup for Asian eyes has a number of differences.

Makeup features

The main difference between the face of Asian women is the shape of the eyes. Their shape is narrow, somewhat slanting, the movable eyelid almost always overhangs and does not have a fold. Eyelashes are rarely long and fluffy, which is why Asian girls have a harder time adjusting the severity of their gaze. But in most cases, the cheekbones of such a face are very expressive, and the lips are small, but plump. To the disadvantages of the general background, a yellowish undertone of the face and porous skin are added.

Despite such features, the basis of the makeup of Asian women (Chinese women, Japanese women, Korean women, Uzbek, Kazakh girls, etc.) is an emphasis on the flawlessness of the skin and a light, alluring look. To highlight your eyes, you need to bring your skin to perfect condition. This is a necessary condition, without which beautiful makeup will not work.

The task of the make-up of Asian eyes is the correction of the shape: you need to visually enlarge them in size, open the look, make it expressive.

All the subtleties of the "open eye" make-up imply the use of special cosmetics... They are based on the culture and traditions of the countries. This is not only eye makeup: harmony of all facial features is needed to create the right image. When correcting the shape of the eyes, it is important not to lose their individuality.

A distinctive feature of Asian makeup is naturalness. What is permissible in our country is not always welcomed by them. Each make-up is subject to a specific case and should look natural, as if all facial features are ideal by nature. The main thing is to demonstrate feminine beauty, not cosmetics.

In special cases (ceremonial event, national holiday, wedding, etc.), some freedom is allowed, but taking into account the traditions of the country. Asian makeup is thought out to the smallest detail: every touch in it has its own meaning. Even worshiping fashion trends (anime style, idols) can affect eye makeup, as the use of a special glue that lifts the eyelids eloquently testifies.

Skin preparation

Asian woman's style - natural charm and health... First, you need to tidy up the skin: this will accentuate the beauty of the eyes. Before applying cosmetics, you should cleanse the skin and rinse it with cold water to tighten the pores.

The skin tone is evened out with the help of a foundation, and due to the peculiarities of the natural skin color, pink shades of the product are unacceptable. The shade of the tone should perfectly match the complexion.

An important nuance is getting rid of dark circles around the eyes: they are unacceptable, as they make the eyes dull and sore. To eliminate these shortcomings, you need to use a concealer or foundation one tone lighter than your natural skin color.

The finishing touch to create a flawless dermis is a light layer of loose powder. Flawless skin should glow, say Asians.

They use a highlighter and a little blush accent to give the skin a healthy glow.

Color solutions

Asian-style eye makeup sticks to natural shades... At the same time, the palette can be varied: the base of the color is pleasant and natural, but it allows adding soft contrasts to the main tone. The main thing is to look natural and harmonious. Such makeup will be appropriate in any look and is suitable for a different style direction.

Unlike European women, who often show their eyes with aggressive colors, the Asian puts emphasis on natural beauty. An excellent result is achieved by combining smooth contrasts and shading of several natural tones close to skin color (ombre technique). There can be no coincidence in choosing the color of the shadows: you need to give the eyes visual depth.

The eyeshadow palette for special occasions allows for darker and more saturated shades. It often contains dark gray and black tones. Cosmetics for national events are special. It can include bright and unusual colors up to bright pink, blue, purple, silver.

Red shadows are taboo: they make the eyes sick, swollen and tear-stained, ideal ones are those whose color is close to the natural blush, but a little darker.

Types of make-up

Asian makeup is multifaceted and national. Regardless of the chosen image, it turns out to be rich and harmonious. Brown-eyed beauties know a lot about applying cosmetics, so their eyes are always beautiful, and the image is distinguished by a delicate taste and some aristocracy.

Asian make-up can be:

• everyday(daytime), made in the style of minimalism;
• evening marked by brighter contrasts;
• national demonstrating the peculiarities of the culture of a particular country;
• scenic(variety), representing the artist in the best possible light.

Depending on the specific case, the methods of applying cosmetics may differ.... Makeup options vary according to the girl's country of residence. Great interest in the peculiarities of applying cosmetics in order to change the shape of the eyes makes Asian makeup in demand. Trying on this style, European girls are looking for a new way of self-expression, tired of massive makeup.

It is worth noting that Asian make-up does not imply face sculpting. It is important to be yourself, so a visual change in facial features is not encouraged. In addition, this approach does not fit in any way with the light and mysterious image of an Asian woman.

How to apply correctly?

Beautiful makeup is the dream of many girls. And if the national make-up differs, the classic remains unchanged: it doesn't matter which country the girl lives in (China, Korea, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Mongolia).

Asian eye makeup is actually not as difficult as it might seem.... If you follow each step step by step, you can quickly master the technique of an expressive and inviting gaze.

The job of creating beautiful eyes starts with applying a base under the eyeshadow. If you ignore this step, your makeup can look messy within a couple of hours after application.

Day

Discreet and everyday make-up is a universal solution. To create it, you don't need a whole artillery of cosmetics: a standard set of cosmetics is enough:

• forever apply light shadows, creating the effect of large eyes and depth;
• upper eyelid tinted with a dark tone of cosmetics, not forgetting about the outer corner;
• at the base of the lash line the contour of the movable eyelid is drawn with a liquid eyeliner;
• center of the upper eyelid emphasize with white shadows, creating the effect of volume;
• draw a couple of strokes in the same color along the lower border of the eyelashes and at the outer corner;
• it's time for mascara: it is applied in two layers on top and quite a bit on the lower eyelashes, remembering to comb them thoroughly, excluding the stickiness effect;
• it remains to emphasize eyebrow line the natural color of the shadows, correct the tone of the face, make up the lips with light lipstick or transparent gloss.

Due to the natural colors of the eyeshadows, such makeup will not look bright, even if the eyes are accented with eyeliner.

Evening

Evening makeup can be brighter than daytime. It allows the use of a wide strip of eyeliner and multiple layers of mascara. One of the most popular eye shadow application techniques is ombre. Its principle adheres to the rule: the closer the shadows are applied to the lash line, the darker their color. With the help of this technique, it is possible to make the look expressive and the eyes large.

The technique itself is no more complicated than the previous one:

• before applying decorative cosmetics, the eyelid is prepared using a base;
• then light shadows create the appearance of depth at the outer corner from the eyelid to the eyebrow line, applying shadows along the upper and lower eyelids;
• thorough shading- an obligatory technique that allows you to look beautiful and natural even in dark shades;
• shadows of dark tone the lower and upper eyelids are brought down, smoothly stretching the tone;

• ombre effect fixed with a brush;
• balances of funds on the brush, you can walk along the line of growth of the eyebrows (just a couple of strokes);
• for eye enlargement you can use eyeliner: first, draw a thin line from the inner corner (at the very line of eyelash growth);
• without touching the inner corner, add thickness to the eyeliner line;
• it remains to make up eyelashes and make your eyes wide open with the eyelash curler.

Korean style

The technique of Korean idols does not leave many girls indifferent. This is a unique puppet image, which, despite its unusualness, looks natural and beautiful. The basic rule remains the same: perfect skin is the basis for the success and expressiveness of the eyes.

The method of applying cosmetics allows the use of a pencil and work with the lower eyelid:

• on the upper eyelid area apply the base;
• after the basics the eyelid is set off with cosmetics of light brown color, slightly darker than the skin tone;
• the closer to the border of eyelash growth, the darker the shade of shadows is chosen, not forgetting to stretch it up;
• along the border a barely noticeable stroke is applied to the lower eyelid with light shadows: this will enlarge the eyes;

• dark shadows are needed to accent the outer corner: they are applied in the direction from the outer corner to the middle, not forgetting to add a drop of the product to the lower eyelid;
• no eyeliner needed: draw a line with a brown pencil along the line of growth of the eyelashes;
• eye accent should be soft: the line should be shaded gently;
• after shadows it is the turn of mascara: it is applied in two layers not the upper eyelashes and barely combing the lower ones;
• it remains to add blush- and the image of the Korean woman is ready!

How to choose cosmetics?

Choosing the right makeup is not an easy task. The difference between Asian eye makeup is the use of special cosmetics, most of which are made specifically for this type of skin and eyes. European counterparts do not always give the desired effect, since their purpose as a whole is a decorative function. In addition, you need to select cosmetics based on the type of skin on your face.

Products of a special plan are developed taking into account the additional effect and are intended not only for adjustments or care, but also for protecting the face from ultraviolet radiation, as well as other negative environmental factors. These are long-lasting cosmetics that do not slip or smudge during the day.

Eyeliner is one of the favorite techniques of Uzbek, Chinese and Korean makeup. Its consistency should be liquid and its color should be exclusively black. The shade of the pencil can be black or brown. Some girls add a white pencil to their cosmetic bag.

A standard makeup kit should include foundation, concealer, eyeliner, pencil, eyeshadow, mascara, blush, translucent gloss, and lipstick. Advanced women of fashion use special cosmetics: cushion and tints. Cushion (a special pad with tonal impregnation) is a good substitute for a foundation, it is applied in a thin, natural layer. Tints - cosmetics for eyebrows, eyes and cheeks. By choosing such products, you can be sure of the durability of your makeup.

When buying Asian-style cosmetics, you need to consider a number of nuances:

• perfect shadows- matte and similar in tone in the palette;
• flawless foundation- one whose texture is light and uniform;
• good mascara- medium texture with a lengthening effect and a comfortable brush;
• ink color for daytime make-up dark brown, for evening out - black;
• day lipstick should be almost imperceptible, evening allows a hint of saturation.

In addition, when buying cosmetics, you need to pay attention to the expiration date. You can not paint with expired drugs, so as not to harm the health of the skin.

A person often has a desire to have what belongs to another. Owners of an Asian cut of the eyes resort to plastic surgery or simply glue the overhanging upper eyelid to make the eye appear rounder. And big-eyed, on the contrary, often try to narrow the shape of the eyes, drawing long thin arrows towards the temple. Well, this has been the case at all times: the owners of curls dreamed of straight hair, and straight-haired ones slept in curlers.

There is one positive point in all this amazing contradiction of women's tastes: the cosmetic industry has offered us a thousand means so that we can change our image at least every day. For example, it will not be difficult for us to transform from a Slav into a Japanese for one evening. And, of course, competent makeup, styling products and hairpins will help us with this.

So, let's say we're going to a Japanese party, which means we'll have to reincarnate a bit. First you need to decide who we will be at this Japanese party: just a Japanese girl, an anime heroine or a geisha? To create any of these images, we will have to conjure over the shape of the eyes, making it close to Asian. Of course, we will not use any adhesives, scotch tapes and other tools - we will do with decorative cosmetics.

How to create an Asian eye shape?

First, very light (white, cream, etc.) shadows are applied to the upper and lower eyelids. Next, we take black eyeliner and draw a line on the upper movable eyelid. The eyeliner should be applied very thinly and directly along the lash line. At the inner corner of the eye, the line goes down, and at the outer corner, first slightly down, then up.

Do not confuse Japanese makeup with Arabic: in Arabic, the line from the center of the eye towards the outer corner gradually rises and eventually goes up - towards the temple. This technique will not help create Asian eyes. First, the line goes directly along the lash line to the outer corner of the eye, and only then it rises slightly (see image).

A very thin line is applied to the lower eyelid with a gray eyeliner or a light pencil. Here you need to focus on your eye shape. If the eyes are almond-shaped, then it will be enough to draw a line along the lash line. Round eyes need to be visually narrowed: for this, you need to start the lower line near the inner corner of the eye just below the lash line and gradually raise it - so that it goes to the outer corner of the eye at the level of the lash line.

The upper eyelashes need to be painted, but you should not focus on the eyelashes - this will visually enlarge the eyes, and we want to achieve the opposite effect. You don't need to dye your lower eyelashes.

The eyebrows should be straight. Any flirtatious bends are not allowed here. Only straight, crisp and, of course, black. The thickness of the eyebrows is not critical, but everything should be within the normal range. By the way, Japanese women have a large distance between the eyebrows, so if you wish, you can do the plucking of the inner edge of the eyebrows. Just don't do it if you want to be a geisha. So, we figured out the eyes. Now let's look at three different looks.

Just Japanese

The skin should be matte. Apply a very light tone under the eyes and on the cheekbones - so that these areas visually increase. On the rest of the areas we apply the usual tone that suits us. Draw the lips with a pencil and paint with lipstick. One condition is that the lips should not be plump. Therefore, if your lips are large, adjust their size with a pencil and a dark matte lipstick. No lip gloss.

Suitable hairstyle - smooth dark hair, you can use a wig. The ends of the hair should be straight and crisp - no wavy lines or splendor.

Anime Girl Makeup

The eye makeup described above needs to be slightly changed: the line on the lower eyelid should be rounded so that the eye on one side turns out to be slanting, and on the other - large (for some reason, the heroines of Japanese anime are all completely big-eyed). The small black line down at the inner corner of the eye can be removed by replacing it with a line drawn with very light shadows.

Eye makeup can also be supplemented with bright shadows up to the eyebrows, but they must be applied from the inner corner of the eye towards the outer edge of the eyebrow. You can bring the shadows further - to the temple. You can apply bright blush on the cheekbones, and make up the lips with ultra-colored lipstick. But the sponges need to be visually reduced.

How to visually reduce lips? First of all, apply a white tone to them, completely masking the borders. Then draw a new outline with a pencil, giving the lips the shape of a neat and thin bow. It is better to use a matte lipstick. The same method should be used when making lip makeup for the image of a geisha, only you need to use a red pencil and red lipstick. But back to the anime girl. The face needs to be made pale, but with a slight blush. The hairstyle can be any - even in color. It can be two high tails above the ears, a long braid, loose hair with a pile. The ends of the hair are torn, bangs are almost obligatory. You can complement the image with fake ears a la elf, and decorate your face with rhinestones.

It will also be interesting:

Geisha

A white tone is applied. The Japanese eye makeup described at the beginning is applied. If desired, you can supplement it with colored shadows - a triangle at the outer corner of the eye. The eyebrows are straight, well-defined, black, rather close to each other. The lips are visually reduced. On the cheekbones - peach blush.

Geisha's hairstyle is quite complicated, therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to repeat it yourself. You can buy a geisha wig. Or you can make a kind of geisha hairstyle:

• black hair, slicked back, fixed at the back of the head with hairpins and bamboo sticks.
• At the same time, the hair is not pulled tight, but remains free so that the hairstyle turns out to be voluminous. To do this, you can make a bouffant in advance.
• Geisha's hair is almost always decorated with flowers.

We wish you to be the most beautiful Japanese woman at the most interesting party!

For us, Slavs, Eastern life has always been an alluring enigma. Yes, in fact, like ours for them.

As Comrade Sukhov said: "East is a delicate matter" .

And, in fact, it is true, if you compare these two cultures with each other, then they will differ radically. This also applies to questions of beauty. Do you already know how is asian makeup done? Then let's study together!
The first thing I would like to note is how Asian makeup is done in terms of the desired result from its implementation. If in European the emphasis is on masking small flaws in appearance and emphasizing its own dignity, then in Asian makeup, the oriental appearance is emphasized first of all, since they, in fact, have no flaws on the skin at all. It is the fact that the features that are not inherent in Europeans stand out, makes it possible to acquire a certain zest in the appearance, which so strongly clings to the male half of society. If you are wondering how Asian makeup is done, then you should also take into account the cardinal differences between the appearances of the two nationalities.

Asians:

- slanted eyes... Europeans almost never find such. - massive upper eyelid, which essentially "hangs" over the eye. - complexion has a yellowish tint. - cheekbones stand out slightly more than European women. - clearly defined lip line with smooth lines. I think every European dreams of these! - but eyelashes Asians have short ones. More precisely, much shorter than that of Europeans.
All these differences must be taken into account if you decide to learn how to do Asian makeup on your own experience.

How is Asian makeup done? Begin!

Tone cream

First of all, naturally, a foundation. Note that it is applied in the base of Asian makeup, as in all other types of makeup. Its role is well known to all - to hide minor errors in your skin (somewhere - age spots, somewhere - dark circles under the eyes from lack of sleep, and so on). But there is still a difference. Do not use pink foundation. This is a European version of the tone; for Asians, golden, beige, and some, perhaps, caramel tonal creams are suitable.

Blush

We select shades of blush in the same way as foundation, excluding pink ones.

Shadows

If we talk about everyday makeup, then you should refuse to use shadows altogether, or use the lightest shades of all possible. If we are talking about evening, then use shades of "brown", that is, from beige with a slight yellow tint to dark brown, including gold and silver. It is better not to use blue, blue and purple eyeshadows, as Asian women mainly have black hair and brown eyes, and too cold shadows do not match with such an appearance. Therefore, they hardly use such tones.

Eyeliner

This is the most crucial moment, since we are learning how to do Asian makeup on a European appearance. And the eyes are the most "different element" of all appearance. When you bring your eyes, try to "stretch" them as much as possible. This is not difficult to do, but you need to get used to it: in the outer corner of the eye you draw long arrows that visually lengthen the eye, but in the inner corner it is a little more complicated. Start drawing an arrow at the very corner. Above the drip line, your arrow should be wider, and to the middle of the eyes along the upper eyelid, pass into a thin strip. By doing this you achieve some masking of the section of the European eyes.

Pomade

Use light tones for daytime makeup. You can pink! ;) In the evening, you can use the scarlet color. Yes, yes, as in! You just need to take into account how red lipstick fits into your image. Don't forget about this - the little things are also very important! Well, now you know how Asian makeup is done!

The main principle of "Korean beauty" is care first, and then make-up. That is why experts from Asia have developed a complex multi-stage skin cleansing system, they also came up with a variety of patches and creams based on the most exotic ingredients like snail mucus and snake venom. As for the make-up, you can achieve the effect of light porcelain skin with the help of Korean powder. Typically, Korean women opt for a loose, colorless powder that gives a very light, weightless finish. But dense and compact powder is not at all popular with Asian fashionistas!

2. Cushons

As we said, the foundation of Korean makeup is perfect skin. Not so long ago, the Koreans made a real revolution in the foundation market and introduced cushion into our everyday life - a compact liquid tone in a package that looks more like a powder compact. The product is enclosed in a special sponge, with which the tone is transferred to the rubber sponge and, due to this, lies on the skin in a very even thin layer. It is convenient, practical and allows you to achieve the effect of maximum naturalness.

3. Straight eyebrows

In Korea, absolutely straight, without bending, wide eyebrows are now fashionable. This is the form most Korean actresses and singers choose. Of course, this story is not for every face, but in most cases it looks really stylish.

4. Only light shadows

If we take a close look at the Korean makeup collections, we will hardly find dark eye shadow palettes there. And all because Korean women adore "doll" makeup and try to make their eyes a little more European. Dark shadows and thick smoky are not suitable for this purpose, so a girl with very light matte or pearlescent eyeshadows will look at us from any beauty poster. It's worth noting that this is really refreshing! If you want to look a little younger or give the image some childishness, take an example from Asian women and use only light shades in your eye makeup.

5. Translucent lip tints

Thick lipsticks, dark colors, matte textures are all fashionable in the USA and Europe, but not in Korea. Asian makeup style dictates its own rules, which means that girls have completely different products in cosmetic bags. Instead of lipsticks and glosses - lip tints, which give a translucent shade and at the same time last throughout the day. In this case, the tint can be bright pink or even acidic. The lips should look as if the girl has recently kissed - slightly smeared, but saturated color.

6. Radiance effect

Like modern European makeup, Asian makeup means skin doesn't have to be just matte. Therefore, highlighters are very popular with Korean women, but they often choose creamy textures than crumbly ones. They are even more convenient to apply - no brushes are needed, all the beauty can be created with the pads of your fingers.

7. Pink cheeks

Puppet pink cheeks are a must-have for Korean makeup. Usually, girls use lip tints or creamy blush in pale pink shades that give the face a freshness and childishness. In general, the cult of youth in Korean culture is felt even more than in Europe. That is why blush of quite unambiguous shades enjoy success - no “dusty rose” or peach for you, only the color of Barbie!
