South Korea – Glass Skin
In contrast to certain cultures that feel that cosmetics can conceal any skin imperfections, South Koreans prefer to concentrate on having the most beautiful skin they can get. It is known as “glass skin” because of its glossy and nearly transparent appearance. In Asia, this style has become the de facto standard for beauty due to its popularity among celebrities.
An 10-step practice that includes toner, face scrubs, moisturizer, and cleanser is said to be necessary to get the desired result. It is possible to obtain this bright and dewy skin if you have additional time on your hands.
Japan – Red Under-Eyes
Whereas most women devote countless hours to fading under-eye discolorations and spend hundreds of dollars on the process, women in Japan intentionally add red pigments under their eyes.
It’s called byojaku, which is Japanese for’sickly,’ and the goal of the makeup is to make the wearer appear sick or allergic to something. In order to make the red stand out even more, the makeup should be used with a light colored foundation. Who would have thought that a sick day might serve as inspiration for your upcoming cosmetic style.
