Geisha Beauty

I've always been fascinated by Geishas, in particular, the makeup they apply. This video shows a Maiko(a young Geisha in training)applying all her makeup.


I found this traditional handmade Yachiyo-Hake Japanese brush, below, used by Maikos and Geishas and it caught my eyes because it looks so much like the Yachiyo Brush 27 by Nars. For $50, you can bring some of the beauty of a Geisha into your makeup box.


You can find a whole range of Geisha style makeup, combs, and some skincare at Ebay seller Hannari-Ya.
