Welcome!

This is a simple [and modest] tutorial on the basics of how to apply visual kei style make. The first things to remember, is always start with clean hair, face and teeth.

If your wearing contacts, put them in first.

Hold the mouse over the photos for comments and tips.


Ok, first a starting picture. Before. : D


The first step is to apply foundation evenly to your entire face. Remember to blend it in and apply also to your lips and neck for and even pale color over your entire face.

[Ya, i know i'm uglier than a skinny puppy but its 2am so plz excuse lol]

POINT** Never use foundation which is more than two shades lighter than your natural skintone.



Next, draw the panda shape around your eyes. If you have a double eyelid, try to follow the crease or else just draw about halfway up your eye.

POINT**If you're having trouble with the shape, try outlining it in stick eyeliner, then coloring the panda shape in with liquid eyeliner.



Then take black dust and apply it carefully around the edges of the eyeliner, gradually fading out for a softer look. Feel free to add it also under your eyes for a more eroguro style.



Get creative! From this point on, it's up to you what sort of style you have, so don't be afraid to experiment and try new things.



Once your make is complete, change into whatever clothes you are going to wear, and fix your hair last.

Some simple styles [for short to medium-long hair] can be made by ironing your bangs and flipping the back half of your hair to one side or ironing little pieces in a curve so they flip up like feathers.

Feel free to add accessories to your hair. Things like small hats, beads, extentions, and ribbons all can make very nice additions.



Finally, the after photo--

Well I hope that this has helped, go try it out for yourself!
