Make up practice

Today was a make-up lesson day. The make-up in the photo is for the character of a young boy in Okinawan dance. The photo is the middle of process, not completed version.

Okinawan dance make-up applies thicker eye shadow, compared to Japanese Kabuki dance make-up.

Each character has different make-up; for example, a man's character in Okinawan dance applies darker foundation and dark lipstick. Eyebrows are one of the most important feature expressing character; in a male character, the eyebrows are thicker than they are for woman.

今週フライヤー用に写真撮影を控え今日はお化粧の稽古をしました。毎回化粧するたびに顔の雰囲気が違う、目のお化粧が一番難しい。
