Black teeth and shaved eyebrows ... This is not a frame of film horror and extreme make-up experiments. This beautiful 19th-century Japan. I wonder how they did make?
• Ohaguro - this is the tradition of blackening the teeth, got its spread in the middle of the 19th century. BLACK their smiles, both men and women. Applied to this mixture in an acetic acid (vinegar and iron powder from juice urushi tree, also known as lacquer tree). Practice Ohaguro was aimed not only paint the teeth black, but also to protect them from decay and periodontitis. After 1870, this tradition has waned since that year came the law authorities, prohibits the use of this practice for the aristocrats.
• The second fashion trend of the time - a high forehead. How can this be achieved? This was aided by another practice - Hikimayu, plucking and shaving eyebrows. Once women get rid of natural eyebrows, they drew new, much higher than the place where grown eyebrows earlier. Used for this ink or black ink.
• For a person to use bleaching powder of white lead. Powder applied to the face, neck and chest. Blush could afford only the very rich, because they were very expensive, they are extracted from the extract of a rare and precious flower.
