My attempts at a accurate version of the Geisha makeup. I did a lot of research for this tutorial to try and find out as much as I could, some makeup styles seem to vary from geisha house to geisha house and at what level of apprentiship you are at so I stuck with the look I personally preferred and which, from what I had seen, was the standard.
Ideally in a year or two I would like to re-make this tutorial, this time using the proper brushes and makeup and also do a blog post going with the tutorial talking about each item, their history and interesting facts, but for the moment I hope you like this one :)

Thank you so much for being as authentic as possible and doing research, as someone who is Japanese, I really appreciate it. This look is very beautiful, and you do it very well, and I believe you are honoring the Geisha if nothing else. You are an amazing artist who does amazing stuff with makeup, I respect and admire you so much. ^^
Contrary to popular belief, I do not consider this racist at all, this is not yellow face, she is not attempting yellow face at all, she is honoring a very respected profession, and did a lot of research. I have seen some pretty racist "Geisha" makeup looks, and this is not at all one of them.
If anyone has bothered to read the description, she says flat out it was an /attempt/ at something. She was /trying/ to get it accurate, by researching it and everything.
You know, this is the only geisha makeup tutorial on youtube that I've liked. You keep it classy and accurate without doing the costumey, almost "orientializing" stuff that everyone else seems to go for. Bravo!
Sheesh some of you need to calm down. Just because something isn't just right doesn't mean it's completely horrible. There are tons of makeup looks, hair looks, etc that are INSPIRED by something or have elements of it but aren't necessarily supposed to be the exact thing. I like doing geisha eyes and stuff like that but it doesn't mean I am an expert in it. It's just having fun and showing how cool the culture is. Some of you need to throw a bucket of ice water over your heads lol ;-D
I don't care if you're white, you look amazing and please ignore what others are saying.
You're absolutely right about the lips. Geishas were known for drawing their lips on very small. A very traditional Asian concept of beauty is for a person to have large eyes, a tiny nose, and a small mouth. As you said, very doll-like. (This is probably why modern anime is drawn so exaggeratedly.) [My source - the loads of Asian friends/families I grew up around!]
Beautiful makeup and great tutorial! c:
i absolutely love that you kept this so authentic. there are so many maiko/geisha tutorials on here that are "modernized" or whatever. i love love love this.
The lighting is too bright to see what she's doing.
yeah
I can't tell you how awesome you are for actually doing the proper research for this makeup :)
@whatever4405 Yup the winners have been announced and the prizes sent. I take down old contest videos because they're no longer running and have no use anymore. I will be hosting another giveaway in a few weeks :)
+Ladie Vortexa I agree. Also, being a geisha was an occupation. I don't get why people are being so up the ass about appropriation when this wasn't the whole culture, she is being respectful of it, did her research, and acknowledging that she is not getting it 100% perfect
You do not know how long I have been waiting for this.
I adore that you did the neck shape! Information about Maiko and Gaisha makeup (or anything about them in general) can be so tricky because they're so purposely mysterious.
I'm glad you took the time to do it right, though! Your work is always very appreciated.
That's the most acurate geisha makeup tutorial i've seen so far! You must be proud!
{Copy pasted from another comment} Shut up SJWs. This isn't racist at all, she is emulating an aspect of Japanese culture that is time honored and she is trying to do it the traditional way given that she is using what is available to her. I think you really need to read up on what cultural appropriation actually is because this isn't it. I wear African dresses because I have an admiration for African cultures and I respect them. Also, learning and being inspired or exchanging cultures is how humans fucking grow. Has it ever occurred to you that by engaging in such exchanges helps with combating racism?!
love this amazing artwork. Foundation is truly the key. And the lip is just perfect.
omgosh, you're perfectttttttttttt
I LOVE that you tried to do a very true geisha look. I love the artistic renditions of it, but I feel like the traditional makeup is such a beautiful art in itself.
Thank you for this look. It is amazing. It is so nice to see a makeup tutorial that really looks into the traditional applications and image of the Geisha/Maiko Makeup.
Did anyone else notice her kimono was wrapped in the wrong direction? It should be left over right the way you're wearing it would signify that you're dead
+Stephanie Riggsbee Well this video IS in the halloween playlist.. :D
SweetDragoncandy yes it's Halloween but it's also someone's culture. I'm sure it would be appreciated if it was at least done as accurately as possible with the known meaning behind it.
Stephanie Riggsbee I was referring to the wrapping of the kimono. I meant that it is probably wrapped like you would do for a dead person because it was for halloween :)
+SweetDragoncandy she never said she was going to be a dead person for halloween
+Stephanie Riggsbee I know you commented this forever ago (but I'm just now seeing this video) most japanese people wouldn't mind to much if they saw her wearing it incorrectly, They'd likely just tell her what wearing it the way means, and show her how to properly wear it. The japanese honestly aren't as concerned with people mucking something up as we are in the west, most would be overjoyed if more people even tried things from japan
You are the first guru I've ever seen to do the spot on the back of the neck!! How awesome! :) Love it, as usual!
I think this is the best geisha look I've seen yet :-) Great job, Klaire!
Love it! :D oh and thanks again for all the lovely give-aways you are doing :3 x
Oh my god i love this! I love geishas and for you to do this tutorial makes me so happy!
i love this tutorial.
u r really good at doing these makeup art tutorials:)
Geisha *inspired*
Leave her alone.
This makes me want to go watch Memoirs of a Geisha! Great tutorial, love it so much!
@512AliN I won't be able to have perfect lighting till I find a new place to record (I record right in-front of my window) hopefully I'll be able to get the lighting perfect in a few months :)

YAY! i feel proud knowing i already voted for you in the cosmo contest :)
Wow your the most precise Geisha tutorial I have seen from someone that isn't a traditional do it Japanese person, I really like it :)
This is a great video. I think you really have the geisha makeup down perfectly!
Congrads! The makeup that you did looks fantastic!
Congrats !!! happy for you!! you deserve it! you are very Talented!
the most authentic geisha/maiko make up tutorial i've seen yet
amazing! you actually did the fine details :) so good!
This is one of the better Geisha tutorials I have seen because Geisha are supposed to be very SIMPLE and people LOVE to over work them. Great job as usual!
stunning as always!!! :D
I love your make up and style :D Klaire you could inspire the most depressed of people by your work. I love it so much and i love how inspired and how much positive energy you give off in your videos its just so amazing. You have inspired me and many others in so many ways. Keep up the perfect amazing work you do,and never give up your dreams. :) :D
My very first video of klaire.♥️ will always go back here when i miss her.😭
Great job Klaire! very accurate in every aspect,I especially love the lips. :)
I love how detailed you work...
really gread keep it like this.♥
Thanks for the tutorial! This really helped me find the right foundation for my cosplay outfit!
Thats very tiny and simple!!! Amazing that you got such an effect with that little eye Makeup!!!!
@princsscassie1997 That's the name of the brush so that's what I called it in the tutorial :)
Amazing as usual!!
You should redo this soon! It's been so long. Beautiful job!
@Jojeeh adding it in the description box now :)
this was so inspiring to watch... i loved the part when you were doing your back. the shape was just beautiful and so eccentric. the full look all together just.. agh... you amaze me girl. :) congrats on your nomination!
Oooooo pleeeeeeeeeease do another video😊 I looked in the video description and saw that you wanted to do another updated video😄😄😄
great job !!! looks very misterious and beautiful
I I love your short and yet how wonderful videos
OMG!!!! This make up looks like real "geiko" or "maiko" so so so so beautiful ✨✨✨✨
I love how Klaire's viewers really stand up against haters. You guys are awesome! She certainly deserves it. (:
this is gorgeous as always ms klaire!!! i love it!! i would have NEVER been able to do that design on my back!!! lol! im just not that coordinated :P
I loved the tutorial. It is beautiful. I love the makeup.:)
I liked it a lot! You did a good and I can't wait until you do it again.
Breathtakingly beautiful❤️
I want to re-do this tutorial so at some point later in the year though. I've managed to find out a bit more information about the clothes, hairstyles and makeup (you wouldn't believe how impossibly secretive this stuff its! I've bought five books on the subject as it is and there is still so much I cant find reliable information on!) and the lighting in this video drives me nuts!
The new version should be so much better! :D
I love it! I would like to see the hair tutorial! This is lovely! ♥
can you tell me wich number your foundation is??
cause I did a research and they have so many colors of this foundation and I do not know wich one is the pure white..
Sorry I haven't completely filled in the description box. I had to go out before I could finish filling it in. I'll fill it all up in the next few minutes :)
which brush u used to apply the white foundation over ur eyes?
Geisha and Maiko makeup are different tho...
she most likely doesn't care
Hi Sehun-ah, how is the rest of your group :D ?
she created a make up which includes elements of both.
RainKeehl its clearly said maiko make up!
RainKeehl She clearly had the video at the beginning say, "Maiko Makeup".
My favourite tutorial of all time :)
For the foundation, which white is it? TV white?
Very adapt at doing the makeup! Well practiced ... You looked lovely in your kimono
lovely tutorial!!! I appreciate it a lot that you were going for the original look instead of just doing something geisha-ish XD have a nice day! :)
@EllieLynnCollins from what I've read it's done to give the illusion of the face and part of the neck being covered by a mask (giving an air of mystery) and the back of the neck was (is?) considered a very sensual part of the body so painting it this way highlights it.
Loved this look , you made it look great and very spot on as well x doing the back on the neck must of been hard lol x x love it =)
You're really beautiful! :) I love your costume looks.
I dont care if they were allowed full lips or just lower lip i think u look amaaaaaazzziiinngg good job!!
I think she did a beautiful work, I see nothing racist about wanting to celebrate a beautiful culture and it’s beautiful traditions.I for sure will try this tutorial.
You do realize that Maiko only have lipstick on the bottom lip for the first year right? You just did a tutorial for a Geisha.
Well I read her video description. Turns out she has researched into the background of things, but this look is what she prefers. Also may I quote: "Ideally in a year or two I would like to re-make this tutorial, this time using the proper brushes and makeup and also do a blog post going with the tutorial talking about each item, their history and interesting facts, but for the moment I hope you like this one :)" Just enjoy the video.
ECCO PINK Just first year maiko do that
Sarah Vargas I know, that's what I said
GORGEOUS!
you have a really good talent!!!
THAT IS WONDERFUL!
Its been two years now (sort of) so would you re do it again! :-D loved it - beautiful
BEAUTIFUL Kimono!
Are you still gonna do another video on giesha with the real tools?
I love the skinsonic. I've even bought another one for my sister for her birthday :)
great tutorial, You have to be one of the most beautiful people i have ever seen in my life!
@2580Melody Of course it wold :) If anything it makes the shape on the back look even better because of the contrast :)
I have a huge scar from the nape of my neck to my bottom because of surgery, its quite thin but my skins really sensitive would it look stupid if i didnt paint my back if i wore a wig?
You look so great with concealer/foundation on your lips, suits you very well (:
close enough.So far you are the only one who at least pay attention to details. Some people think painting the face white and put red here and there on a face is Geisha/Maiko make up. So ignorant.
But I love the fact that you are respectful to the real Geisha and Maikos and I love you. You are the BEST.
@Nuuyu No I didn't use any mascara :)
You're quite amazing... Great talent and very nice explanations. I hope to see more from you ^^
@KlairedelysArt Where can I get a kimono and paper umbrella like that for Hallowe'en???
Wow, I am astonished, you look so pretty, like a marvelous porcelain figure, precisely I wanted to enter a competition with this kind of makeup, this is fantastic as a help. I wonder if you found a tutorial for the hair in UA-cam, I remember looking for one and not finding a proper one. Congratulations on the Cosmopolitan nomination.
FIANNLY THE PREFECT ONE!!!! I NEED IT FOR THE PROJECT THANK U
@KlairesdelysArt where can I get a kimono and paper umbrella for Halloween???
Thank you for the tutorial, you have done a great job
:3 loved this x3 how did you do the hair?
In Japanese culture, the neck is a sensual area. The white makeup is a sort of mask for the Geisha, and exposing some natural skin adds to the mysteriousness of the Geisha beauty.
although this doesnt work as a maiko's makeup tutorial it's a pretty darn nice geisha one
Is this foundation pigmented enough to cover tanner skin too? I wanted to do a cosplay, but the character's complexion is lighter than mine, so I need a very pigmented foundation. Please let me know!
can you tell me what kind of base you used and where to get it?
@Hcochick1996 The hair took me over an hour to do and I couldn't do it a %100 perfect, I wouldn't have been able to do a good tutorial :)
Awesome ! I just planned to do this make up for my school party, where did you get this amazing kimono :D ?
