Maiko Make-up!

Nyanko here~ It's been awhile! I haven't posted in much too long, I apologize ><
But today I decided I'd post about my experience being a Maiko while I was in Kyoto, Japan this summer! :)

I'll just dive straight into it haha! The place I went to was somewhere near the station. If you would like to know the exact place, you can contact me and I'll let you know ^^

^Step one, she highlights my nosebridge and paints my neck area white. Please ignore my big forehead with acne...I am fighting acne as a teenage girl :(
^Her next step was to blush out half my face LOL I love this tone of pink by the way ^^ 

^ She then proceeded to do my entire face white LOL (no this is not birdshit, -.-)
^Yeah, she spreaded the white. Looks so flawless my face doesn't it? :) And now she's doing the red on my eyes. Red eyeliner, I guess you could say ^^
^She did my eyebrows, in red! Trust she's a proo!
^She then did my eyeliner :) It took her awhile...'cause of my single/double lid that day >< I'm amazed that she worked so well with it :)
^And done!
Now for the dressing part! :)
^First she put me in this...underkimono thing LOL I guess for sanitary purposes

^Me, chillin' there in my nice red Kimono :)
^Then she put on my wig! :)

The end! haha hope you enjoyed watching the process! XD If you have any questions about my experience feel free to ask! And here is one of the end results of my photo taken at this studio place that specializes in Maiko and Geisha and Geiko pics ^^
