Geisha Make Up

Geisha Make-Up

• The origins of white face make-up in Japanese culture is largely disputed. It has been said that in the middle ages, the white make-up was discovered when a Japanese traveler returned from Europe with stories of "pale faced" beauties. Which this sounds pausable, it is also been said that it originated from China and was adopted by the ladies of the Japanese court. Considering that the use of white make-up in Japanese history can be dated back as early as the Heian Era (794-1185 AD), a time when Japan was largely influence by the Chinese culture.

The way you apply Geisha make up is:

• First the wax or oil substance, called bintsuke-abura, is applied to the skin.
  
• Next the white powder is mixed with water into a paste and applied to the skin. The white powder is applied with a bamboo brush starting from the neck and working upwards.
• The white make up covers the face,neck, and chest with a two or three whitened areas forming a w or a v shape, usually a traditional w shape left on the nape, to accentuate this traditionally erotic area and a line of the bare skin around the hairline, which creates the illusion of a mask.
  
• After the foundation layers is applied, a sponge is patted all over the face, throat, chest the nape and neck to excess Moister and to blend the foundation. Next the eyes and eyebrows are drawn in.
  
• The eyebrows and edges are colored black with a little bit of red. Traditionally they could have used charcoal, to darken them but today the cosmetics is more likely to be modern in their places.
• Last but definitely not least are a her lips. The lips are filled in using a small brush. For their first year, Maiko paint only a little bit of colour on her center lower lip. This appears to originally originate from the fact that in Japanese history very small lips where once considered sensual and attractive.
• After their first year, Maiko start to colour their top lip, but never filling in the entire lip. When they become geisha, they continue to paint their lips smaller but eventually over time as her make-up becomes more clear and distinct, she starts to paint in her full lips.

Obama’s Educational Plan

In Obama’s State Of Union speech he mentioned several components for his educational plan. One of the components he mentioned that ¾ of jobs require college education and that less than ½ of Americans don’t have college education. In the U. S., we have the highest high school drop-out rate, and we also have ½ of college student’s drop-out rate. I believe that the reason for students to drop out of high school and college is because for college students may not afford the college tuition and for high school many students need the one on one education from the teacher but not all students can receive that help. It is important to know that there have been a lot of teacher’s layoffs and it does’t help. What Obama has accomplished to improve the education crisis is that he has expanded early childhood education, make college affordable, and prevent more teacher layoffs. I think that it’s great that he is expanding early childhood education because that way my son will receive the education that he needs to be able to succeed in life and be able to pursue his dreams in future. One last promise that Obama made the U. S. that he will stop wasting so much money in Iraq and that he will have comprehensive health care for the U. S. I honestly believe that Obama will accomplish all of his goals in the best interest of the citizens in the U. S.

In this review i will be talking about a book by the name of PUSH by:a person named Sapphire.

The setting of this book takes place in New York. The main character is a gurl by the name of Precious Jones. When i starded reading this book i enjoyed reading it everyday. Unfortionetly we starded reading more and more and we figured out that Precious was being molested by both of her parents and that she ended up getting pregnant by her father twice.

I honestly do not understand how can a parent disrespecttheir child so much b raping him or her. So my opinion about this book is discusting i do not like this book. I think a person it doesn't matter who it is nobody should ever have a right to rape somebody.
