Description
A beautiful Geisha girl with a parasol.
Geisha have white faces because their faces needed to be recognizable in the candlelight in the past.
The white color also hides their facial expressions which is essential as they are entertaining guests.
The finishing touch of a geisha’s makeup is the red lipstick, also known as beni. A first-year maiko is only allied to paint the lower lip red.
Any other maiko or geisha can apply the lipstick to both lips.
The lipstick is applied in a way that the lips look smaller to create a more doll-like appearance.
