How Arab girls wear makeup. Oriental makeup

Women love to try on different images. This opportunity is provided by holiday carnivals and: if, for example, the 20s are coming up, you can transform into Clara Bow, Coco Chanel or a gangster’s girl; When going to a Japanese-style party, you can try on the image of an anime heroine or a geisha. If it is expected holiday in oriental style , women will most likely want to turn into the Shamakhan queen, Shahrazade or a belly dancer for one evening.

Let's talk about how to transform into an oriental beauty by making the right oriental makeup (or arabic makeup) and not forgetting other important nuances.

Transformation into an eastern princess: preparation

1. Complexion. The first thing that distinguishes an oriental woman is her skin color: honey, olive or very dark. Before you start applying Arabic makeup, you need to think about how to give your complexion the desired shade. The easiest way is to use self-tanner at least a couple of hours before applying makeup. If you want your skin to be darker, apply self-tanner the day before the event and repeat the procedure 1-2 hours before applying makeup.

The second way is to use a darker foundation or bronzer.

Advice: Before applying self-tanner or bronzer, subject your facial skin to a mechanical peeling procedure using a scrub. In this case, the complexion will be more even.

2. Eyelashes. The eyelashes of a true Princess of the East are long, thick and fluffy. If you want to look stunning in this look, but your eyelashes are far from ideal, you can add extensions. But decide on this procedure in advance - at least a few days in advance. Materials for eyelash extensions must be of high quality so that the result of the master’s work does not disappoint you.

3. Manicure. You also need to take care of your nails in advance if it’s difficult for you to do a good manicure on your own. Nails can be long, medium or short – it’s not that important. But still, long nails are more suitable for an eastern princess. Materials for nail extensions and the talented hands of a master will help you.

However, length, as already mentioned, is not the main thing. The main thing is the presence of varnish on the nails, and the brighter the better. You can decorate your nails with rhinestones, lace and other decors (nail art). Pearl varnish is preferable. You can combine several bright varnishes.

4. Hair. The hair color of an eastern woman is dark: from dark chestnut to blue-black. If your hair is a different color, hair dyes and wigs can help. But you can do without dyeing and a wig, and choose a headdress that completely covers your hair (for example, a beautiful turban), or tie an original silk scarf (hijab).

Transformation into an oriental princess: oriental makeup

Arabic makeup: skin. Applying oriental makeup begins with preparing the skin. If you've already darkened it with self-tanner, apply a thin layer of foundation and spread it evenly.

Oriental makeup and eyebrows. The next step in oriental makeup is working on the shape of the eyebrows. They can be medium or wide, but eyebrows with a thread are absolutely not suitable. The main feature is the length of the eyebrows. It is advisable to lengthen them both to the bridge of the nose and to the temples.

The head of the eyebrow (the area closer to the bridge of the nose) should be wider than the tail (the area closer to the temple). The eyebrows can be given any shape: they can be arched, falling, horizontal, etc. The main thing is that the line is clear and the eyebrows are dark. Use dark shadows or a pencil for eyebrows - dark brown, graphite, black.

Arabic makeup and eye shape. Now you need to give the eyes the desired shape - almond-shaped. To do this, use a pencil, eyeliner or eye shadow in black, dark brown or dark gray. Line the upper and lower eyelids along the lash line. The arrows should not turn out to be too thin - the thicker they are, the larger the eyes will appear, which is what oriental beauties have always strived for.

The lines at the inner corner of the eye should converge (or almost converge) - the resulting the corner at the inner corner of the eye needs to be slightly lengthened and lowered down . The outer ends of the arrows can be connected or not connected - experiment this way and that, and you will definitely find a more suitable option for you. It is only important that the line running along the upper eyelid rises slightly upward from the outer corner of the eye, tending to the temple. This will give the eye an “almond shape”, which is what we achieve by applying oriental make-up .

Oriental makeup and shadows. Use dark shadows to blend the arrows a little. Apply bright shadows to the upper eyelid up to the eyebrow. Use shadows of different saturations: the closer to the eyebrow, the lighter it is.

Eyeshadow color for oriental makeup. When creating, you can use different shades of the same color, but it is still preferable combine several colors: For example, brown, green and gold or yellow, red and purple.

Eyeshadow color for brown eyes and dark green eyes: red, blue, green, yellow. Eyeshadow color for gray and dark blue eyes: lilac, violet, brown, pinkish, light purple. Eyeshadow color for light blue and light green eyes: sand, gold, gray, lilac, pink, purple.

Shadows in oriental makeup can be used matte and pearlescent, but shine and shimmer are the best suited for creating the image of an oriental princess, so we recommend give preference to pearlescent shadows. Bring the shadows to your temples and up.

Oriental makeup and eyelashes. Make your upper lashes as full and thick as possible by applying several coats of mascara. It will be enough to apply one layer to the lower eyelashes.

Arabic makeup: powder and blush. It is rare to see a pink blush in real oriental women. Use a deep tan blush. Apply the darker powder under the cheekbones from the nasolabial area to the earlobe, and the lighter powder on the cheekbones and along the lower jaw line.

Arabic make-up: lips. In oriental makeup, the emphasis is always on the eyes., and the lips don’t really stand out. Use lipstick in a subtle shade - slightly brighter than the natural color of your lips. You can apply lip gloss to make your lips appear a little fuller.

Oriental makeup: moon in the sky. If you wish, glue a fly or draw a mole on your face. An Arabic proverb says that a woman's face without a mole is as empty as the night sky without the moon. In addition, when creating Arabic makeup, you can decorate your face with sparkles or rhinestones.

Makeup in the Arabic style, like beauties from oriental fairy tales - how to do it and what products will be needed for this? We tell you in every detail.

Characteristic features of Arabic makeup

The main thing in oriental makeup is color. Arab women use their face as an artistic canvas, trying to emphasize natural beauty with the help of bright eyeshadow (they don’t skimp on color and use as many shades as possible), jet-black eyeliner and thick lipstick. By the way, similar makeup is often found among Indian women; the ideal example is the Bollywood diva Aishwarya Rai (ours will help you accurately replicate the actress’s makeup).

The reason for this is the need for women to wear closed clothing, which sometimes covers the entire face, leaving only slits for the eyes. Therefore, special attention is paid to eye makeup: wide arrows are drawn, eyelashes are thickly painted with mascara in several layers - everything to make the look mysterious, deep and bright.

To perform Arabic makeup, you will need a large amount of decorative cosmetics: a palette of shadows, kajala and eyeliner, lipsticks, bronzers, eye pencils, highlighters and lip glosses. The shades can be mixed with each other and played with the palette: the main thing is to achieve a rich and dense coverage.

Arabic makeup with an emphasis on the eyes

Makeup, like that of an oriental princess from a fairy tale, is necessarily makeup with an emphasis on the eyes. It usually consists of shadows applied using the smoky eyes technique, neat graphic arrows and thickly colored eyelashes.

  • It is necessary to emphasize not only the upper, but also the lower eyelid with cosmetics: Arab women run a soft pencil along the mucous membrane of the eye to give additional depth to the look.
  • The inner corner of the eye can be slightly highlighted with a highlighter or silver shadows (or you can use a light-colored pencil): this way you will achieve the effect of a fresh and open look.

  • Don’t forget that you will also need to highlight your eyebrows: they are emphasized with a pencil, drawing in the missing hairs and creating a clearly drawn line with an expressive bend, or other special means. Eyebrow mascara will help smooth the hairs, wax will visually make them denser and thicker.

You should always remember that bright eye makeup requires perfectly smooth skin.

Thus, the step-by-step technique of Arabic makeup includes applying a base, foundation, concealer in the area around the eyes, corrector in areas with imperfections, bronzer (less often pink blush) and highlighter to create chiseled cheekbones, eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, eye shadow and lipstick on lips. The skin should turn out perfectly smooth, matte, but with radiant cheekbones.

Arabic makeup for brown eyes

Brown is the most common eye color among Arab women. That is why it will be easier for owners of brown eyes to repeat makeup in an oriental style. The main shades are deep blue, emerald, gold, black, as well as all shades of brown.

First, be sure to line your lower and upper eyelids using a pencil (dark brown or black), giving your look depth. After that, start applying shadows.

It is best to paint your eyes using the smoky eyes technique, carefully blending the shadows and creating a beautiful haze around the eyes.

Brown eyes themselves are quite bright, but the effect can be enhanced by metallic shadows - a favorite technique of Arab women. Apply them to the eyelid and inner corner of the eye to give a fresh look. Use warm shades such as copper and bronze.

Arabic makeup for blue eyes

Sometimes Oriental women wear colored lenses to turn brown eyes blue, green or gray - this way the combination of dark tanned skin, light eyes and bright makeup looks even more impressive.

To create oriental makeup on blue eyes, it is best to use cool shades: violet, gray and blue. To add brightness to your look, use silver shadows with pearl or metallic sheen - a classic black eyeliner will look especially impressive on them. Shades of ocher, gold and copper are also suitable.

Arabic makeup with bright lips

Eastern girls are not afraid to emphasize both lips and eyes at the same time. There are no limits to lip makeup: you can use both thick matte lipsticks and glossy glosses (the main thing is bright shades).

  • The most popular combination is dark smoky eyes and classic red lipstick.
  • You can also highlight your lips using lipstick of other shades: choose colorful berry colors - wine, the color of ripe cherries or currants, carmine and coral.
  • Beige nude shades are also welcome (especially if you highlight your eyes very brightly): in this case, it is better to use a matte texture.

And be sure to carefully draw the shape of your lips using a pencil (read how to do this correctly). Arab girls do not accept the natural, “blurred” contour that is popular on catwalks.

Applying oriental makeup is an art. It may not be possible to master it the first time. But the result is worth the time and effort. Beautiful oriental makeup in the Arabic style will be the key to a wonderful evening!

In contact with

The East is always associated with something very mysterious and alluring. The women living there are especially famous. They are distinguished by meekness, humility and extraordinary beauty. These girls intuitively know how to choose outfits wisely and do amazing makeup. To create a mesmerizing image, they do not need either magazines or advice from stylists. They themselves know how to decorate their face. That is why many women around the world want to imitate them. In this article we will tell you how to do oriental makeup for brown and other eye colors.

History of origin

Many types of cosmetics application appeared under the influence of traditions, rituals and religion. The Arabic make-up was no exception in this matter. Residents of Arab countries mostly profess Islam. It is a faith full of its own rules and traditions, which are regulated by the Koran. According to the regulations, oriental girls should be very modest and exemplary. Most often, the obligatory clothing for them is the burqa and hijab. They cover the entire body including the face. Only the eyes and hair remain open.

The set of rules greatly limits freedom in makeup. No bright lips or blush: it simply won’t be visible. That is why Arab ladies focused on the design of their eyes. The main cosmetic product for creating magic arrows was antimony. This is an eyeliner that has a jet black color. It is made from a special stone. Usually girls prepared cosmetics themselves.

It was also believed that a special eyeliner protected the eyes from the influence of sunlight, wind and sand. The Arab peoples considered antimony almost a cure for all ills: many believed in its healing properties. Initially, homemade eyeliner was used by men for medicinal and preventive purposes. Later, this trend was picked up by women. Not only eyelids were painted with antimony, but eyebrows were also drawn and painted over. Some even managed to dye their eyelashes with it. Since then, makeup in the oriental style has changed a lot, but something has remained in its original form: its attractiveness and the magic of the East.

Makeup features

  • Lack of bright colors in the design of the lips. Bright red, acid pink, purple and others are taboo. It's best to leave your lips bare or use something very light and neutral.
  • Light contouring. It is worth using soft colors for it. Sculpting should highlight facial features, but not come to the fore.
  • Perfect eyebrows. Beautiful oriental makeup requires proper eyebrow shaping. They need to be brought into a suitable shape, and also well painted with permanent paint or special shadows. “Unruly” hair is best styled using a special gel.
  • Focus on the eyes. This is the most important rule. Be sure to use eyeliner. Beautiful, neat arrows are the calling card of any Arab girl. It is also common to use shadows. The color palette can be completely different. Some people prefer dark colors, while others use the brightest colors. Both black and brown, as well as burgundy and emerald pigments look advantageous. Several colors are often used at once: they are smoothly shaded and form a pleasant gradient. Often the pigments are applied right up to the eyebrows. The use of sparkles, rhinestones and glitters is allowed. To add more expressiveness, you can use false eyelashes.

  • Shine. The skin of Arab women literally glows. That is why one of the main attributes is highlighter. It can be applied to the corners of the eyes, under the eyebrow, on the cheekbones and collarbones. The main thing is not to overdo it.

Types of makeup for oriental face type

Often the east is associated exclusively with Arab peoples. At the same time, there are other nationalities with their own characteristics in facial design.

  • Japanese. It suggests a very light, close to white, complexion tone. The lips should be wearing bright red lipstick. The eyes are lined with a very thin strip along the hairline, emphasizing the inner corners of the eyes. Light pink blush is applied to the cheeks. The eyebrows are slightly overlapping in tone.


  • Indian. This makeup is a game of accents. The bright design of the eyes and arrows are combined with sensual lips. The skin tone remains natural, and blush is applied to the apples.

  • Arab. The most important thing about it is the emphasis on the eyes. When designing them, shadows, eyeliner and mascara are used. The lips remain natural or are covered with soft lipstick. Cheekbones are highlighted with light contouring.

In this material we consider the latter option, since it is the most common.

It is also worth considering that to remove it you need to use a special product.

  • Eyeliner. It can be either a pencil or liquid, cream or gel eyeliner. The choice should be made based on the desired effect and personal preferences. We recommend the following options:

Eastern beauties know firsthand that beautiful eyes are one of a woman’s strongest weapons. Unlike European women, who have slender legs and sometimes revealing cleavage, meek women of the East prefer to captivate and fascinate men with the magnetism and depth of their gaze from under black eyelashes. And although their beauty is hidden behind freely flowing clothes, this does not mean that it is less attractive than outright splendor. Gifted with grace and natural charm, Eastern women do not limit themselves to the benefits of natural beauty. Bright, rich makeup helps them make an impression and present themselves in the brightest light.

If you dream of lifting the veil of the secrets of oriental beauty, we suggest that you put aside all pressing matters for a while and immerse yourself in the magical, unknown world of an oriental fairy tale. The oriental makeup ideas presented in this article will help you turn into a charming Shamakhan queen.


Let's start with the fact that the concept of “oriental makeup” simultaneously combines several types of makeup - Arabic, Indian and Japanese. And although they all have a common characteristic feature - a bright, expressive emphasis on the extraordinary Asian shape of the eyes, the nuances of the technique of each type vary.

Arabic makeup - the mysterious flavor of the East


The art of implementing Arabic make-up is a task within the reach of any girl. Brunettes and brown-haired women with green or brown eyes are considered the most advantageous types of appearance for performing this style of oriental makeup. In this case, you can experiment not only with natural colors - brown, green, gray, but also dilute the palette with bolder, richer shades - purple, pink, turquoise, silver and gold. The main thing is that if you get carried away by the creative process, do not overdo it. Ideal Arabic makeup should be spectacular and expressive, and not vulgar.


Those with fair skin and hair types can also create a beautiful oriental look with their own hands. The only thing they should stick to is less flashy, flashy colors. The priority should remain restrained tones of brown and dark gray. Following this strategy, Arabic makeup from the perspective of European appearance will look simply amazing.


Before we look at options for making makeup in the Arabic style, let's look at its features in more detail.

Performing Arabic makeup, like any other, begins with applying foundation and powder. When choosing the color of the base, keep in mind that it should not be overly bright. A light coffee shade reminiscent of a tan is what you need. To give your face the desired oval shape, use bronze powder. It is applied to the area just below the cheekbones and along the jawline.

Dark, ideally shaped eyebrows are a must for Arabic makeup. They must be clearly outlined using a black pencil. White or silver-white pearlescent shadows shaded in the area of ​​the arch of the eyebrows will help make the contour noticeably smoother.

As you know, Eastern women have elongated eyes. You can create the illusion of an Asian cut of European eyes using shadows. To do this, apply shadows of the main color to the extreme part of the upper eyelid and shade them evenly up to the contour of the eyebrows. The outer corner of the eye and the contour of the lower eyelid are highlighted with dark shadows of the same shade. You can add a special shine to your look using pearlescent shadows, rhinestones or sparkles applied to the upper eyelid. There is another technique actively used by makeup artists to give the eyes an Asian almond shape. Its essence is to apply dark shadows along the upper arrow, after which it is drawn with a brush to the outer corner of the eye, gradually widening it. Thus, the eyes visually stretch out. When deciding on a palette of shadows, remember that they are selected depending on the color of the iris. For dark eyes, shades of brown, yellow, green, red, blue and blue are suitable. Pink, purple, gray, brown and golden tones will add brightness and expressiveness to light eyes.

One of the most striking accents of Arabic makeup is thin or wide black eyeliner. Thanks to them, the look becomes captivating and seductive. Make-up in the Arabic style allows the use of several colors of eyeliner at once. For example, the upper eyeliner can be black, and the lower eyelid can be lined with green or purple eyeliner. Dark shadows as eyeliner will make Arabic makeup softer and more delicate.

Luxurious eyelashes are the real pride of an Arabian beauty. They should be lush and lengthen towards the outer corner of the eye. You can give your eyelashes the desired thickness using several layers of mascara or false eyelashes. Quite often, eyelashes are decorated with glitter or rhinestones glued to them.

Applying lipstick is the final touch to Arabic makeup. Please note that Arab women do not accept bright lips in their appearance. For this reason, it is better to use natural, pastel colors to decorate them.

Without a doubt, practice is the best way to consolidate theory. We invite you to familiarize yourself with the ideas for implementing Arabic makeup through the photos below.












Indian makeup - a bright image of oriental beauty


Unlike Arabic, Indian style of oriental makeup is not limited to just focusing on the eyes. It is possible to add even more rich colors to the appearance of Indian women through bright, sensual lips.

Since Indian women have dark skin types, the basis of Indian makeup is a golden complexion. You can achieve it using foundation and powder with a bronze tanning effect. To highlight the cheekbone area, blush of a more intense and rich color is suitable. Girls with fair skin will also need to use self-tanning. Thanks to it, open areas of the body will acquire the necessary darkness and will not contrast with the main tone of the face.

To draw eyebrows, use an exclusively black pencil. In Indian makeup, eyebrows should have a clear, curved contour in the shape of a crescent.

The Indian style of oriental makeup “welcomes” shadows of bright, rich shades. At the same time, the color of the Indian woman’s eyelids is combined with the color of the eyes and sari. As a rule, terracotta and bronze tones are preferred. Blue, blue and green shadows are appropriate when it comes to brown eyes. Yellow, purple, pink and lilac colors are the most advantageous against light eyes.

Indian makeup cannot do without winged eyeliner. They are drawn with a black pencil over the shadows and look like thin, clear lines directed from the outer corners of the eyes to the temples. If desired, they can be slightly shaded. Please note that wide arrows drawn with thick eyeliner are not typical for Indian makeup.

Eyelashes are an equally important detail of Indian makeup. They should be painted in several layers with thick black ink. It is possible to use false eyelashes, but keep in mind that they should be long and not thick.

Rich, matte lipstick looks especially seductive in Indian makeup. The most suitable shades are coral and red. However, sometimes you can see Indian girls with a calmer lipstick tone. In this case, a pearlescent sheen is applied on top of it. Thanks to it, the lips acquire a lush shape.

The passion of Indian beauties for body jewelry is vividly embodied in Indian makeup. Agree that it is almost impossible to imagine Indian makeup without a small red or brown dot (“bindi”) in the center of the forehead. As an alternative to a bindi, you can use a self-adhesive droplet or butterfly of any color you like.

By tradition, we bring to your attention a selection of excellent Indian makeup ideas. Take a look and don’t be afraid to experiment with your own look.




Eyebrows should have a clear, even and necessarily thin contour.

The main accent in Japanese makeup is the thick black eyeliner that adorns the upper and lower eyelids. The lower lash line can also be drawn with a gray pencil.

Shadows are not a necessary part of Japanese makeup. If they are present, then only in moderate quantities and have calm, muted tones.

For blush, it is better to use subtle colors, for example, pink or peach. But you don’t have to hold back when it comes to lip design. Both very bright, catchy and natural shades of lipstick are suitable.
