So many fashion and beauty products are aimed specifically at white, Caucasian women and even though many of the techniques are the same, you need to be aware of the differences.
Asian women appreciate the difference in their eyes, skin, hair and their exotic, natural beauty.
While most Asian women can't get away with the beauty products and colors that blond hair and blue-eyed women find flattering, an Asian woman's skin tone, eyes and other features are naturally beautiful and their exotic features should be focused on and emphasized.
So many Asian women have become very famous and successful in the acting field as well as the modeling industry. Their Asian looks are very alluring and their exotic beauty is highly sought after. More and more, the cosmetic industry is developing products that match the
Asian skin tones.
One of the greatest challenges for Asian women is applying eye makeup.
Here are a few tips to enhance those beautiful features:
Always start with great tools and products. You can do your homework online or in stores to find the best quality as well as prices of these products. Take your time and make wise decisions.
Asian women should stay away from foundations and powders that have pink undertones because it doesn't blend with their yellow skin tones. It also leaves an unnatural and unhealthy look. Use products with yellow undertones to give you a more attractive and younger looking skin. This is more natural and will blend evenly.
When choosing eye makeup, be sure to have the right eye shadow brushes and make sure your brushes have really high quality bristles.
When picking eye shadows, try experimenting, but make sure they look good on you and not fight your yellow undertones. You might want to wear more natural colors during the day and at work.
Asian women have naturally beautiful almond shaped eyes. For evening wear, try brighter shades that will emphasize those almond shaped eyes.
You can use really fun updated colors such as oranges, corals and even light shades of grey. If you choose the wrong shades, you can actually make yourself look older and outdated. Experiment with eye liners and eye shadows to get some new and updated looks.
Eye liners are very important to most women when trying to control the look for your eyes. Choose a contoured or angled brush to create the look of deep set eyes. To emphasize the exotic shaped eyes, draw a line past the outer corner of your eye and try blending it upwards. If you want to tone it down for the workplace or during the day, gradually make your liner thicker as you reach the outer edge and then stop right past the edge.
When applying mascara, you should use a lighter shade of mascara on the lower lashes and use a darker and thicker mascara and shadow on the upper lashes. This will make your eyes appear to be deeper and more open. Be very careful not to over do it.
You should apply your makeup in stages, so you don't put too much on and feel uncomfortable when you leave the house and go out in public. Your makeup will always look a little different in outdoor light. Try to avoid that caked on look.
I find that most people look into each other's eyes when talking or communicating. Take the time to make sure your eye makeup is flattering because that is where people look first and first impressions are lasting impressions. Always remember that our eyes are the windows of our souls.
