Kapok Road | Hibiscus Is Not As Good As Beauty Make-Up

Everyone is a book, with thousands of experience to connect the story of life. Each piece of clothing is not only used to cover or keep out the cold, but also the companion closest to our skin. It carries the memory of history, the essence of culture and the persistence of ingenuity

We buy a dress, maybe just because we like it for a moment; However, to make a good dress that people always love, it needs to go through the selection of fabrics, careful design, exquisite production of various links, condensing the wisdom and painstaking efforts of countless people.

Taoist kapok always believes that clothes must have their own stories. A garment with a story can not only understand people's inner desire and pursuit of beauty, but also meet more confidants in the wearer. For more than 20 years, we are not only making clothes, but also writing a volume of stories about the clothers in kapok road.

Natural and clear Japanese makeup

Or the European and American makeup of flaming red lips

But I don't know what makes up the most beautiful clothes,

Or our Chinese make-up.

China has a history of makeup for thousands of years,

"Chuci · Da Zhao" once wrote:

"White and black, Shi Fangze only".

It can be seen that in the pre Qin period,

The women have begun to powder, thrush and rub incense.

The real Chinese make-up is neat and tidy,

The contour is solid, and the eyebrows and eyes are clean and clear,

There is no lack of elegance and understanding in modesty and generosity.

The black color of the mountain eyebrows, lingering danfengyan,

It can be subtle and charming,

Like cloud brocade, it's shining and colorful

The Chinese style make-up for ordinary people by teacher Mao Geping, a famous Chinese makeup master,

Because the effect of make-up is too amazing, it is called "head changing" by netizens

On an ordinary morning,

Spring warblers chirp in the courtyard with high walls.

The girl who just got up had finished cleaning,

Sitting lazily in front of the bronze mirror,

Next to her stood the maid who was waiting for her.

In front of the mirror, the woman's hands are delicate,

The orchid finger is slightly warped,

Open the dowry and paint the red lips.

Incense burner dense, breeze blowing.

This is about two thousand years ago

Women's make-up scenes in ancient China.

Today, let's have a look

Chinese style makeup tutorial.

Dressing powder

Cui'e is in a cluster in the south of the country, and its shadow is red and Yin.

Carry powder noodles, Shaorong Huaguang phase envy. The sleeves are raised with crimson silk.

Cloud servant wind trembles, half cover Tan mouth, shy, secretly look behind.

——Liu Yong's midnight Music: sunny weather

The so-called "skin like snow" and "ice flesh and jade bone",

Whether ancient or modern,

White skin and beautiful appearance are one of the standard accessories for beautiful women.

The first step of ancient makeup is the same as that of modern people,

It's also powder dressing.

Most of the powder materials used by the ancients were from "rice flour",

In addition to rice flour, there is also lead powder.

White lead is usually converted into a paste,

Absorb water, grind into powder or form a solid,

When you use it, you can paint it into a big white face.

Now we generally don't recommend applying too heavy powder,

According to their skin color and texture,

Choose a foundation that looks natural and comfortable.

It should be noted that,

Moisturize and base before applying powder,

In this way, the makeup will look more comfortable and clean.

paint the brows

There are beautiful women in the south, charming Jade Snow Yan.

The eyes and eyebrows are gorgeous, and the color reflects the cold autumn.

Pink and Dai dare not, admire only you LAN.

——Beauty by Liu Ji

When we describe the beauty of girls, we can say that they are beautiful,

To describe the handsome boy, we can say star eyebrow and sword eye.

In traditional Chinese aesthetics, eyebrows and eyes,

Always plays a very important role.

For example, in a dream of Red Mansions,

Baoyu first saw Daiyu and noticed it first,

It's Daiyu's "two curves like a frown, but not a frown.",

A pair of eyes that seem to be happy but not affectionate. ".

Therefore, painting classical Chinese makeup,

Eyebrow shape is very particular.

In the Han Dynasty, slender eyebrows were popular.

In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the long eyebrows of the Han Dynasty were followed,

And popular eyebrows connected with slender eyebrows.

In the Tang Dynasty, eyebrows were ever-changing,

In the early Tang Dynasty, the eyebrows were thick and wide,

In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the eyebrows were slender and slender,

After the Mid Tang Dynasty, the eyebrows were short and wide.

In Song Dynasty, the slender and beautiful long moth eyebrows rose again.

In the Ming Dynasty, eyebrows were slender and curved,

There have been changes in length and depth.

Our current Chinese makeup,

The most commonly used is willow eyebrows.

Willow eyebrows should not be too thick,

A slight arc will do,

It can narrow your forehead,

Create a small face.

And then there's queyue Mei,

But the moon eyebrow is slightly wider than the willow eyebrow,

Also more curved, like a crescent moon.

There is a poem saying: "under the imperial edict, the world looks for good flowers,

The moon eyebrow cloud harms the selection of people ";

"Chunjiang wants to wear out her makeup mirror,

Try to write "slim but moon eyebrow".

Or the legendary Dai Yumei,

This eyebrow is very delicate,

Like a touch of smoke hanging in the air,

It's very suitable for the little sister who wears elegant and gentle Han clothes.

For the diamond face girls with three-dimensional facial features,

You can also choose to draw eyebrows.

The tail of the eyebrow is slightly downward,

It looks sophisticated and pretty,

It can also modify the problem of high cheekbones.

Eye shadow

When the lotus on the embroidered face smiles, Xiefeibao duck with fragrant gills.

The eye wave just moves is guessed.
One side of the wind is deep and has rhyme, Half a letter of love and hate send you bosom.

The moon moves and the shadow comes again.

——Li Qingzhao's "huanxisha: boudoir love"

Eyes are the windows of the mind,

In ancient times when there was no eyeliner or eye shadow,

Women put rouge on their eyes,

Make the complexion more ruddy full, delicate and moving.

In the modern Hanfu makeup,

Red eye shadow and pink eye shadow are also very popular,

The eye shadow of this color system is used everyday,

It is likely to produce a "sense of domestic violence",

But once it's paired with Hanfu,

It changed immediately,

It seemed gentle and tender, and her eyes moved.

When we draw eye shadow,

You need to pay attention to the steps and techniques,

First, use light color as the base,

Then choose dark brown halo to dye the eye socket,

Finally, color the eye tail with a suitable eye shadow color,

The lower eye shadow should also be brought,

The eyes will be more divine.

Rouge

Self love residual makeup in the mirror, ring hairpin diffuse green silk cluster.

In a moment, the sun shines on Rouge cheek, and a red Su Xuan is ready to melt.

——Yuan Zhen's five missing Poems

Rouge is what we call blush in modern times.

It originated in the Shang Zhou period,

Women in Yan state smeared their faces with petals.

The color should not be too red,

To feel natural,

The best make-up is if there is no makeup.

So the ancients said, "who is the rouge,

It's close to the face. "

Ancient women used rouge on festive days.

Apply this red ointment to your cheeks and lips,

It can make girls smile with spring breeze, and their faces are like peach blossom,

So there was a series of beauty trends,

Such as wine halo makeup, Feixia makeup, peach blossom makeup and so on~

women's hair ornament

The brocade belt is mixed with flower and mother of pearl, and the Luoyi is hanging over the green river.
I asked him where he was going now, and he went out to pick the lotus from the south of the Yangtze River.

——Wu Jun's Lotus picking music

The so-called flower mother of pearl is an ancient woman

A small ornament attached to the brows and face.

On Wei Gu's wife in the engagement shop

"I often stick a flower between my eyebrows,

Although bathing, leisure, to taste temporarily.

There are three colors, red, green and yellow,

Most of them are red.

It is made of gold and silver and covered in hair.

The color of the mother of pearl is rich and colorful,

Its color depends on the material of the mother of pearl,

If the gold foil is golden, flashing reflection;

Black glossy paper is black, and the smoke is shining;

The gills of the fish are white, clean as jade.

Others are painted in various colors according to the needs of the pattern,

It is more colorful.

And now the fairies

It's more of a choice to paint with some paint,

Most of them are red pigments.

What's more rude is the lipstick,

In this way, it is not so easy to fall off compared with the kind of flower ornaments pasted on it,

And it's very colorful,

As long as you can draw, the hole is big enough,

Don't worry about no new ideas!

Facial dimple

Under the fragrant lotus candle, the snow is evenly distributed. Make up a smile and make a golden moon.

Delicate noodles are better than hibiscus. The face is red with the sky.
At the banquet, the drums were lifted. Call on the flower dance.

Spring is shallow and cold is not forbidden. It's too wide for me.

——Yan Jidao's bodharman

Facial dimples were most popular in the Tang Dynasty,

Is applied to the cheek dimple of a kind of make-up, also known as makeup dimple.

It wasn't used for decoration at first,

It is a special mark in court life.

Later, it gradually became a kind of decoration,

Special spot on the lips and cheeks.

Facial dimple can make facial expression more vivid,

It looks more lively and charming,

Therefore, it is regarded as one of the signs of beauty and beauty.

It is recorded in the volume of lingbiaoluyi by Liu Xun in Tang Dynasty

"He Zi grass is also creeping.

Its flowers and yeast dust, light purple color, stem leaves such as willow and short.

When summer blooms, they call them green flowers and green leaves.

The southern people say that it is beautiful grass, which is picked and dried to replace the dimple. "

I want to recall the fashion of the Tang Dynasty,

You can try a little dimple,

If you have dimples,

The effect of facial dimple is more graceful.

Oral fat

The eyebrows and dailies are shy, and the lips are warm.

The Qi is clear, the skin is moist and the muscles are rich.

——Yuan Zhen's thirty rhymes of Huizhen Poetry

In film and TV plays, there are often scenes of women making up,

Sometimes it's opening the jewelry box,

Pick up a little rouge and put it on your lips;

Sometimes they take out a thin piece of red paper,

Take a few sips on your lips.

These are all "lipsticks" used by ancient women,

It was also called "lipstick".

Lipstick can increase the brightness of the lips,

It gives the impression of health, youth and vitality.

The degree of liking can vary from

According to the records of Baiguan in the book of Tang Dynasty, it is recorded that:

"On the twelfth day of the lunar calendar, we offer mouth fat, facial fat, head ointment and perfume sachets,

He was awarded a Bachelor of the north gate, and his mouth was filled with Bi thread teeth

It's written here that carved ivory tubes are used to hold lipstick,

It can be seen how precious lipstick is!

Chinese women full of wisdom

Lip shapes are formed by lipidizing the mouth.

In ancient times, round and heart shapes were popular,

But delicate little lips

It has always been the mainstream of women's lips in ancient China,

A little bit of cherry,

Just like Cen Shen, a poet of Tang Dynasty

It is said in the poem of drunken drama Dou Meiren

"Vermilion lips and a little peach blossom Yin."

The meaning of "dot",

It's not going to cover all the upper and lower lips.

It's in the middle of the lower lip,

Paint it into a big circle,

In order to change the original lip shape,

Make the thick lips thin and the big ones smaller,

It looks like cherries,

It is small and beautiful.

We're going to do lip makeup,

First, outline the lip shape with a lip liner,

Apply the same color of lipstick all over your lips,

Finally, the labial peak is prominent.

Complete the above steps,

A delicate Chinese make-up will do.

It's the only one with the most oriental charm,

To be able to work with Huafu,

Create a unique Chinese style beauty.
