East Asian Bridal Make Over



East Asian Brides:

In countries like China, Japan and Korea western bridal attire has come to replace traditional costumes in many cases. White dresses for the ladies and tuxedos for the men. East Asian bridal make up as such is very similar to a traditional bridal look, but special attention needs to be given to the eyes.

When applying Asian bridal make up to an eye which does not have a natural crease in the lid, then to help increase the depth of the eye a contour can be used to simulate an eye-crease. Many makeup artists will also thicken the width of the eyeliner in the center of the lid which gives a fuller look to the eye. Very dark eye-shadow should also be avoided as this will make eyes look smaller; the same goes for lining the waterline with dark eyeliner.

Because many East Asian brides have porcelain skin, colors should stay soft for a bridal look: browns, taupes, pinks and light grays will all work well for an Asian bridal make up look. Japanese brides often choose to have a bright red lip as a reference to the traditional Japanese makeup look (i.e. the 'geisha' look) but overall color schemes should be kept simple.

The great thing about any Asian bridal make up look is that there is always a touch of culture that can be accentuated and incorporated into the look to provide that bit of something different. The possibilities are endless as the Asian bride can take her inspiration from any aspect of culture and weave it into her look. to know more click here.
