Yukiko's blog Takazawa Blog Photoshoot ~Yoshiko's geisha make-up style~

Hello everyone. This is Takazawa here for the third time (^u^) Please bear with me for a little longer!!

Today we have another model. She is a familiar face at the Maiko Experience Center GION AYA!!

"Yoshiko Sonoda Makeup Artist."

I wore makeup that is in contrast to the one I wore the other day in "Photographer Mayumi Takuma in a Geisha Costume," so please listen to what I did differently! It might be interesting to compare the two.

Final chapter of geisha style.

Hi,everyone!!＼(^o^)／ I'm Yukiko.

This time it's Yoshiko which is also appearing on the AYA website.

Please compare it with Mayumi's geisha style.

 

The image of Sono-san's makeup is that of a cool and dignified geisha☆

I wanted to highlight the features so there was almost no pink on the whole face.

The black of the eyebrows and eyeliner, the red of the talisman and lipstick, the size and length of each part.

My aim is... to draw everyone's attention to the parts!!!

Dignified and cool sexy geisha style!!

I care about the size and length of parts of her face and made it.

Ms. Sono has a long face, so even with geisha makeup, her eyebrows and eyeliner need to be long. If they are too short, it makes her face look even longer!!

Doesn't your eye get drawn to the long, narrow eyes and plump lips?

Why not try turning your complexes into charming points with geisha makeup?

(Even maiko can do it!)

Try out some bold makeup looks that you wouldn't normally try.

This makeup is a challenge for me.

Balance is important because she is a line with a sharp face.

Everyone!!!!

Look at the sharp eyes and sexy lips ♡

There is a place we don't like the appearance of ours.

But, we can change in to your charm point ☆

Let's challenge the makeup different from usual.

Now, here's one thing I paid attention to when dressing Sono in a kimono.

It's the angle of the collar!! I intentionally show a little of my collarbone and give the neck some room. If it's too much, it looks sloppy and doesn't have the sexiness of a geisha, so I'm careful about that.

The collar is sharp and slightly loose. And round the Obi.

Kimono is important to consider the balance in accordance with your height and physique.

Since Sono-san is quite tall, even the sharp angle of the collar still looks balanced!

I tried to express in my own way the angle at which the two parts overlap (the inner kindness of a geisha who is strict when working but still takes her younger maiko sisters to a sweet shop) but what do you think?!

I change the dressing of a kimono by the image.

Because she is tall, she must not look too big.

Yes!! Another ID photo (lol)

Thank you for your continued support of Takasawa's work.

If you like"Photographer Mayumi Takuma dressed as a geisha"And compare it with"A collaboration between two geisha with different images"We hope that you will take a look at this and imagine what it would be like to experience being a Geisha or Maiko.

This is the last of the Takazawa Blog Photo Trilogy, but we will continue to offer the Maiko Experience at GION AYA.(Makeup Staff Blog)・(Photographer's blog)Please look forward to it!!!

Thank you for reading today again. Geisha style series 3 is over.

Maiko style and gisha style are both infinite.
