The most featured parts on an Asian woman are the hooded slanted eyes, clear olive skin and black shiny hair. The face of an Asian tends to have very little facial hair with a perfect complexion.

Asian beauty seems to be the most ideal, as they do not have the go through routine plucking, scrubbing and coloring, as so many other women do to achieve the perfect complexion.

Asian woman are always first to complain about their eyes, as they are hooded. Their desire is to open the eyes up to give them a brighter effect. In order to create a wider eye while maintaining the beautiful shape, subtle colors can be used. This Asian makeup tip can be achieved by applying a light shadow from lid to brow. Then using a medium eye color, place shadow on the hood of the eye, which will cover the part of the eye that you want to recede. Then you simply need to blend the light and dark colors together to a natural look.

Many Asian women apply eye liner also, which will enhance the eyes even more. They also choose to curl their eye lashes, as they are generally short, but do tend to stick straight out. Therefore curling the lashes before applying a mascara is essential.

A blush is something that certainly accentuates the features of Asian beauty. The use of a little blush goes a long way. As the shape of the face of most Asians is round or square, therefore a slight touch of blush at the top of the cheeks will brighten up the perfect complexion, whilst giving a more subtle shape to the face by drawing up the cheeks. The best blush colors for olive skin are peaches, corals, and oranges.

The lips are finally the most essential factor of Asian beauty. Asian lips are more often than not full and stunning. There are really no rules in makeup techniques when it comes to the lips of Asian women. Every color seems to be attractive without being over the top. However, the most popular colors for the lips of olive skin are:

It is always essential that the natural olive skin does not have foundation added. This will only result in the skin looking pink, which will make the skin look false. However, if you feel the need to add foundation to cover up any blemishes, then another Asian makeup tip is to attempt to use foundations that are yellowish in color. This color will help to maintain the natural coloring of the Asian face whilst providing the skin with a natural glow.
