| Dollying it up with the Avada Piero Makeup Applier |
When it comes to cosmetics, I absolutely love finding new looks. Here in Second Life,
it is so much fun to compare and contrast all of the different makeup styling approaches.
My fashion nerdy heart is all about discovery and passing along those findings to my readers.
Japanese fashion and make-up have inspired beauty lovers around the world for centuries.
From the charming perfection of the geisha to the funky colors of modern street
trends, Japan has its own unique and often-copied sense of style.
Hence, the Japanese Street Scene reveals so many zany and wonderful forms
of self-expression with make-up. From heavy to soft applications, the different
strengths of lashes, the brow differences, the lips… Holy Cow! I could go on and on!!!
The eyes and lashes have become more pronounced. Insofar as color, the street trends
are shying away from the darker tones in favor of embracing more softer pastels.
In Japan, make-up has gotten more "dolly-like" in appearance, favoring
undereye blush highlighting to achieve a softer baby face.

The Avara Kokoro Make-up adds subtle stars in soft pastels to your look
Avada’s Akai ten makeup draws upon that same concept.
Its undereye blush with a subtle symmetrical array of white sparkle
accents the cheekbones, giving your face a pretty, youthful and fantastic glow.

The lips have always been seen as the quintessence of female beauty and power.
Insofar as style, we in the States have long loved the plumped-up pouty look.
On the other side of the world, however, the exact opposite is true.
In Asia, the dolly look is popular - so little lips and big eyes are the goal.
The gradient-lip is a finish that creates the illusion of a smaller and cuter mouth.
This look is the latest beauty import hittng the shores in America.
It makes you look young, pretty, and innocent.
The Yaho Tokyo exclusive lipstick collection by ITI features 12 gorgeous
gradient-lip swatch shades to complement your cosmetic foundation and appearance.

I love the merged liner and lipstick look of these Yaho Tokyo lips.
Combined with Avada’s undereye blush, it is a stunning combination.
It is definitely a departure from old school glam but very fun nonetheless.
