Ancient makeup

In ancient times, makeup was known as perfume makeup, embellishment, and decoration. Ancient makeup included specific steps such as applying lead powder, drawing black eyebrows, and applying red lipstick. Makeup can be traced back to the Neolithic Age, when women used red clay to paint their faces. In the Tang Dynasty, the steps of makeup were more detailed, such as applying lead powder, applying rouge, drawing black eyebrows, applying flower hairpins, applying dimples, drawing oblique red, and applying lipstick.

Cosmetics in ancient times were very particular and were divided into rouge, powder and rouge. Rouge was blush made from red and blue flowers, lipstick was made from animal organs, powder was setting powder, and rouge was eyeshadow or eyebrow material made from minerals or willow powder.

Today's makeup uses cosmetics and tools, and adopts regular steps and techniques to render, depict, and arrange the face, facial features and other parts of the human body, to enhance the three-dimensional impression, adjust the shape and color, conceal defects, and express spirit, thereby achieving the purpose of beautifying the vision.

Can I bring cosmetics on a plane?

You can bring cosmetics on board. According to the regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, passengers can carry a small amount of cosmetics with them. Only one type of cosmetic can be brought and the container volume cannot exceed 100 ml. All liquid products carried with you must be placed in a transparent bag.

The volume of all cosmetic containers you carry with you must be less than or equal to 100 ml. It is not acceptable to use up 150 ml of cosmetics and only have 50 ml left.

All carry-on liquid products must be placed in a transparent bag with a capacity of 1000 ml. Each person can only carry one transparent bag, and the excess must be checked in.

Even if you bring cosmetics on board, try not to use them on the plane, because the air in the plane is not circulated and the smell of the cosmetics will be very strong.

Is there a place dedicated to one-time makeup?

Yes. For example, beauty salons or some cosmetic counters will provide one-time makeup services. The charges will vary depending on the makeup. Relatively speaking, the one-time makeup services provided by these places are more professional.

The price of a one-time makeup application ranges from 50 to 200 yuan, and the price is mainly determined by the difficulty of the makeup.

Places that specialize in providing one-time makeup services are often more professional in makeup techniques and the beauty products used.

In order to avoid cross-infection of the skin, disposable makeup tools will be provided for application.
