Makeup characteristics of various dynasties in ancient China

1. Women in the Qin Dynasty preferred orange makeup. The popularity of eyebrow makeup even extended to the Han and Tang Dynasties. It is a classic eyebrow style and was learned by Fusang.

The key point is to have thick eyebrows and light brows and tails.

2. The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were open, so the makeup of women in the Tang Dynasty varied greatly.

First, there was the classic white face that guided later generations to "cover three ugliness with one white". A few eyebrows also continued to create many other makeup looks, such as mountain daisy, indigo daisy, and willow daisy.

3. The folk customs of the Song Dynasty were extremely conservative, and the openness of women in the Tang Dynasty was greatly suppressed.

Therefore, women in the Song Dynasty wore extremely plain makeup.

The makeup is mainly fresh and elegant, emphasizing natural skin color and enhancing temperament.

The eye makeup is similar to that of Qin Danfeng, but more natural, and the eye shape that flies slightly into the temples can be verified in many pictures of ladies in the Song Dynasty.

4. Mongolian women in the Yuan Dynasty mostly wore dark red makeup, which was still very simple.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the trend of women without makeup was very popular, which was in great contrast with the beauty and elegance of the previous two dynasties.

The overall makeup is casual.

5. Women in the Ming Dynasty mainly wore bright makeup, and bright colors were prevalent. Various eyebrow makeups even continued into the Qing Dynasty.

6. The makeup of women in the Qing Dynasty was in great contrast between the palace and the folk.

The coloring of officials and court women followed the Qin Dynasty, with orange as the main color. The bright color tension was the makeup style of the upper class of the Qing Dynasty.

Willow eyebrows, water eyebrows, flat eyebrows, and slanting eyebrows occupy the dominant positions.

The eye makeup is sober.

The cheeks are darker in color and the lips are mostly bright red, emphasizing the beauty and grace.
