The difference between Japanese style and European and American style

The differences between these two styles are makeup, clothing, photography and artistic expression.

1, makeup: Japanese makeup pursues natural clarity and emphasizes the delicate texture and luster of the skin. Eye makeup usually prefers light eye shadow with pearlescent, and the eyeliner is thin and clear to avoid being too thick. European and American makeup pays attention to concealer and three-dimensional effect, such as brightening the lower part of the eyes with concealer to enhance the three-dimensional contour of the face. The common eye makeup is smoky makeup, using dark or exaggerated eye shadows such as earth tone, bronze color and metallic color.

2. Clothing: Japanese-style clothing designs usually tend to be sweet, retro or literary, and the materials are mostly comfortable fabrics such as cotton and linen, and the colors are mainly classic or elegant. European and American styles tend to be simple or fashionable. Bohemian style, leather coat, leather, lace and cowboy are popular, with rich color choices, including dark and bright colors. The style is cut smoothly, and there are more tight-fitting models.

3. Photography and artistic expression: Japanese style pursues extremely soft light, and mostly uses backlight shooting. The edge of the character overflows with highlights, and the overall picture is warm and emotional. The use of European and American style light is tough, and Rembrandt light and butterfly light are often used to emphasize the contrast and three-dimensional sense of light and shadow, highlighting the fashion and modern atmosphere.
