I found that it was really strange that Korean women are taught how to wear makeup i high school, it seems like such a personal thing that is usually between a mom and her daughter. It is also surprising to me that men wear makeup at all, at least not straight men. I know that it is a generalization but the men that i gre up around were always very traditional in their "manly activities" and jobs. My dad and other men in my family wouldnt think twice to wear makeup or enhance their "beauty" in any way, other then shaving and getting a haircut. But i do have male friends that work at makeup stores such as MAC and they can pull off eyeliner and makeup better then i can usually.
Jennifer Moore
I think that the idea for painting tyour body to represent a new stage in your life, a new readiness and way to represent that is very interesting as well as transformative tattoos for scars and operations are a very helpful and physical way to mentally heal from some kind of trauma. Also Moores love for Art Nouveau tattoos is something i share as well.
Peking Opera Make-up of China
I think that the colors used to represent what a demon is and what a hero or good person is is interesting, the blue and green signify demons and the red and black colors signify heros, this just shows the differences in meanings of colors and markings in cultures. But it is interesting to see how theatrical makeup is worn for other cultures plays and representations for gods and goddesses.
