Tina Turner's makeup is NOT at all authentic. Lips were much redder, and skin that dark would have made people think she was a slavewoman. Cleopatra used to bleach her skin with milk baths and was no where near that dark.
Nothing wrong with being black OR white, people, its just that having dark skin in most societies meant you were out in the sun a lot / a slave - while pale skin meant you were well endowed and a member of high society.
Akumma it might be a simple typo related to the fact that ancient research into the art dates or leads to ancient China with the Ji, I believe I spelt that correctly. Then to Korea and eventually to Japan in the form of Geisha. Different spellings for the same meaning intelligent flower for the different cultures that all had this lady of status and culture.

I don't know if this video was supposed to be a anthropology lesson or just an example of how to recreate a look inspired by ancient Egypt or Japan. The truth is ancient Egyptians used crushed ant eggs to line their eyes. Today's Middle Eastern, Pakistani, Indian, and Egyptians use kohl.

wow geishas from china? how can you not know geishas are from Japan, I mean isn't that one of things Japan is known for? I bet she is one of the retard Americans that can't locate the US in a map....
no its not its a concentrated paste made with special dyes and turned into creamy baby powder colored foundation please get your facts right before replying because your reply was complete shit
in 1964 13 year old Elisa Johnson was raped and murdered in North Carolina, her body was found with multiple stab wounds, and now that you've read this, every night she will come to your house and hang from your closet with glowing red eyes, the only way to stop this is to post this to 10 other videos. SORRY I DIDNT WANT HER IN MY ROOM :S makr as spam.. tbh i just dont want her there...
Wow, how stupid. That is not a history book, it's a makeup book. I don't know why she thinks that the makeup there represents the true historical style. Or why it says geisha are from China. Ugh.
What an idiot! Do some goddamn research! I'm nowhere near an expert on ancient Egyptian makeup but she was so wrong on a lot of things there. However, her worst offense was the horrible picture of a "geisha" she used.
As they go from apprentice geisha (maiko) to geisha, their makeup changes. But it's ALWAYS white, with pink, black and red accents. A maiko only paints her bottom lip. Orange? The hell? No.
miss, you said a lot of things that weren't true. One of them being that geisha's wear oranges. they wear reds. the lips aren't pouty, they put the 'white paste' as you called it on the lips as well and the lipstick only covered a small portion;)
geisha's eye brows didnt have to be a straight line. It wasn't like that in memoires of a geisha, and yah i know it's just a movie, but they also had a real geisha to teach them how to do everything properly.
There was also the role of diet to play out here as well; geishas were also generally better fed than the general farm girl or woman, and therfore aged much more gracefully. The white powder/pancake make-up hid a lot of little wrinkles and other imperfections to greater degree, even when the geishas hit their 50's and older; the whte make-up gave the illusion of youth, and tha is what the men looked for; youth or the illusion of it.
However, I DO know that geishas were powdered white to appear pure and unsullied; they were kept out of the sun and were powdered to enhance their paleness; this was in contrast to the farm women who worked out in the sun, became brown and became wrinkled because of sun exposure.
I would not know about the upper class Egyptians, as I, nor anyone else commenting on this video, was alive at that time, or have a degree in antiquities to even begin speculating along those lines.
This is absolutely inaccurate and a horrendous source of historical information. However, this is a makeup tutorial, not an informational documentary. She probably shoud have left out the "informational" bits (which she very obviously didn't understand) and focused on the makeup. I think this is supposed to illustrate for purposes of stage makeup and Halloween costumes, though holding a book and reciting "facts" wasn't the best way to go.
If you want to know about the ancient Egyptian make up, you need to look in the interior of africa where you find the decendents of the acient egyption, and they didn't where make up to prove what class they were in, the wore make up to align themselves cosmetically with the cosmos. for example using eyeliner to keep the sun out of there faces, & for wanting to look as white as they can, I don't believe it,ancient Egyptians were sun kissed black n proud people,unlike many black people of today
Upper class Egyptians were proud of the fact that they didn't go out into the sun, that they had servants to do things outdoors for them, thus they tried to keep themselves pale looking. I agree with what you say about the cosmos alignment, but it did end up being a class thing as well...
Ancient Egyptian was a long time scale extending 30-40 thansand years plus, the culture of the egyptian vary in these time scales, as you must be refering to the more recent invading times of the hysoks, persians, greeks and romans. sorry to complicate this information but it should be highlighted, and you need to dig deper into your reasearch as you seem to be making alot of flaws
I think the point of the white may have been for contrast to the black eye and brow makeup and nowhere near a racial issue as everybody was dark skinned in that area and in that time. I don't think the geishas wanted to look caucasian by using their white makeup either.
The geisha's white makeup was originally for stage use - when you're on a stage it's the most effective way for people to see your face and expressions, by highlighting them.
You can now even by this stuff on ebay. It doesn't contain lead - it's really cool stuff. It's called "oshiroi".
It's true..I just googled "geisha makeup"..and 9 out of 10 of the pictures..the only thing they where is the white paste and red lipstick..some of them have the fake eyebrows..They just try to to make it more mainstream and put that orange crap allover their faces..
I thought "geisha girls" were wannabe geishas? Like girls who dressed up as geishas for WW2 American soldiers, but were really prostitutes

Ouch. Someone didn't do their research... Since when are geisha's CHINESE??
And since when are movies taken as historical evidence for styling tips?
It would have sounded a lot more believable if it had been said that these looks were "inspired" by ancient Egyptian and Japanese geisha looks.
