Geisha Makeover Experience
Geisha makeover experience at Kyoto GION AYA
I have sensitive skin so I'm worried about makeup.
The cosmetics we use are natural and gentle on the skin. So far, no one has had any problems with our products, even those with sensitive skin or atopic dermatitis, so please rest assured.
*If you wish, we can also perform a patch test in advance. Please contact us at least 10 days before your visit.
Does everyone apply makeup the same way and style?
We customize the makeup to suit each client's facial features and the look they want.
Our professional staff will carefully apply your makeup. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. Please take a look at our website or Instagram and let us know if you have any ideas for your desired look.
Can I wear daily make-up on the day?
Yes. Please come with your daily makeup. We will cleanse your makeup before the experience.
How do you remove white makeup?
It can be easily removed by cleansing with baby oil, which is available in our makeup room.
If you have eyelash extensions or other reasons are unable to use oil cleansing products, please bring your own cleanser with you.
I would like to bring my own makeup remover and skin care products.
We recommend that you use the baby oil provided at our shop and then use your own face wash and skin care products afterwards.
I'm worried about my skin becoming dry after the maiko experience.
Some people worry about dry skin after the maiko experience, but there is no need to worry about this either.
When applying white makeup, we apply beard oil (derived from natural ingredients) as a base. It has a moisturizing effect, so your skin won't feel tight after you remove it, and it helps to stop sweating on hot summer days.
The white makeup worn by maikos may look like heavy makeup, but in fact it's not. The cosmetics they use are natural and do not put a strain on the skin like the "doran" used by actors. Don't worry.
Do you have any basic skincare products to use after removing your makeup?
We provide cleansing products, facial cleanser, lotion, and milky lotion. Please bring any other beauty essences or makeup tools you would like to use.
Is it possible to shoot without using white makeup?
If you choose studio or courtyard course it is possible to shoot without white makeup. Plese note that if you experience without white makeup you're not able to walk around with it.
Please note that we do not provide skin-colored makeup, so the photo will be taken without makeup, but there will be no discount even if you choose not to wear makeup.
