Makeup Tutorial for the Harajuku "Ganguro" style

Ever wondered how to get this look?

Here is a tutorial that I think you will enjoy. While I can't say I like this fashion style, the girl in the video is pretty cute! Oh and for those who don't know "ganguro" literally means "black face". It is about tanned skin, white makeup around the eyes and a whole lot more. I NEVER see this style where I live but it can be seen in Tokyo! Enjoy!!

I've seen this style on a couple of Japanese tourists here in Saipan. Too funny. Maybe I'll do this for Halloween this year..lol.

Would people really wear this for everyday makeup? It seems so over the top...

I love the dramatic make-up element, but it's still not a look I'd try myself!

Our local t.v are advertising products to whiten our face and our there people are tanning themselves. Guess those are tan longed to be fair and vise versa hah. Thanks for sharing anyway.

People do wear this for everyday but it is only a certain group-you certainly can't wear this to most kinds of jobs!

I think it would be perfect for halloween...though you might have to explain it!
