In japan kawaii is like the biggest compliment among girls! we dont really say you're pretty or sexy ....kawaii is like the ultimate compliment!!! :) when they say you're kawaii it doesnt only mean you cute.. but it also means pretty and every nice thing that u can think of complimenting someone :) hahaha

Dear Lisa, I'm in my early 30s and have hated makeup all through my 20s because I just didn't know what to do with it and disliked the whole beauty business. I recently discovered your videos, and the personality you manage to convey through the screen - the intelligence, the generosity and well-meaning, and complete artistry, has turned my worldview upside down. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos, for being how you are and sharing your knowledge with ordinary people. Very best of luck with the book and all your endeavours!

What I adore about Lisa is that she never or rarely says that a makeup look is ugly - she is just interested in trends in a very objective scientific way actually. Intruiged by all the trends, she really just serves it to us and we can be the judges of what we want. I am in awe by the wonderfull approach to the makeup styles - no stereotypes, no judging, just pure explanation!

She reminds me of my science teacher actually...

Lisa Eldridge is one of the only beauty gurus who tie together all different aspects of science, history, and eye tricking tips that you only really find when going to a very legit celebrity makeup artist, who never would share their tips to the public unless they decide to pay $500 for a makeup seminar. I'm so excited to receive your book! I literally thank god for some things this woman has taught me

Hi, I'm Japanese living in Tokyo. I've watched all your videos. It was funny that you found a powder that can be used for contouring at the drugstore here, while I was trying to import something from Sephora in US. I have to look more carefully at drug stores. LOL Thank you for featuring Japanese products like this. It was fun watching those familiar products from your perspective! xo

+Nami Swan Hello! I'm really sorry to ask this way but I am moving to Tokyo in two weeks and I have been told that waxing - as hair removal treatment - is not so common in Japan and it's hard to find beauty salons that do that. Do you think there's any chance to find any in Tokyo? Thank you so much! xx

+Karlie B It's better to buy one at drug store. I just googled online for you, Brazilian wax for example costs about $80 for both arms, $30 for underarms etc. yes waxing isn't common at salons but permanent removals are.

Hi Nami dear :-) Just a question, I hope you don't mind. When girls do their makeup in Japan, do they contour their face? It is quite common in Australia ^^ I was just curious ^^

"I wrote a book.. on the HISTORY OF MAKEUP" I screamed. Fainted. And woke again. Well, not really, but my heart is beating so fast. Lisa. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations again and again! I'm SO EXCITED. SOO SOOO SOO EXCITED.

I can't stop looking at your eyes after you put those lashes on. Absolutely beautiful!

Also very true on the eye products in Japan. The makeup stays on very well because they've been designed to endure the high humidity of Japanese summers/monsoon seasons. One of the first eye shadows I ever used was Canmake and I still prefer it over all other brands to this day. Same with mascaras, Cle de Peau and the Majolika Majorka ones are my absolute fav, I've tried many mascaras in Europe for years but nothing works as well as those two. Also the many innovations they do like the ink cartridge liquid eyeliners (I use the one by Surratt which I believe was created with Japanese engineering).

I am so proud of you! Not just because of your book, but because of all the things you accomplished so far... being the creative director of two of the biggest makeup companies in the world, having an incredibly succesfull youtube channel, being the makeup artist of loads of supermodels and celebrities, not to mention the professional recognition for all your hard work. You truly are inspiring and enpowering to women!

I'm an American expat living in the Tokyo area and I've lived in Japan for about 8 years now. I'm slowly but surely going native with most things in life here, but I've struggled with cosmetics. Always importing my foundation, or sticking to international brands because I was scared the local stuff wouldn't work for my skin tone. And with the sheer number of choices and my limited Japanese I was so intimidated and didn't know where to start. I've purchase several of the items you recommended and have been so happy with the results. Thank you so much!! Oh, and I read your book. It was great!

The Japanese makeup look has to be my favorite makeup look! Very elegant and not over the top

erin ireland Lisa makes it look great and subtle but Japanese makeup can DEFINITELY be over the top. Overly huge eyes and overly pale skin are some of the "makeup sins" I've seen people commit when trying to emulate that style

Awww I miss Japan so much! I lived in Okinawa in my teens from '94-'98. Such a beautiful place full of culture and the nicest people. I loved it so much!

Wonderful to see you create a Japanese look! :) I hope you had an incredible time during your stay there, and congratulations on your book!!♥

Jill Stuart packaging is so amazing! Every item never gets overlooked.

I love watching your international trend videos... such a cool side of makeup! Please do more- maybe trends in India/Latin America?

She looks so beautiful in this style of makeup! I love what all these colors and the lashes do for her beautiful, warm, brown eyes. This just might be the most radiant of Lisa's looks ever. So pretty on her.

I need to pause this to tell you how extremely excited I am about your book, Lisa! Dying to read it, I know already that it's going to be of an incredibly high standard in every regard, because it's you X

Most makeup artists have tons and tons of makeup and they do tutorials but you actually look into the history of makeup and your videos are so perfect and detailed , and your the BEST mua I've seen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Finally a youtuber/REAL make up artist who comes up with an interesting book idea haha, can't wait to see it !! You're such an inspiration and I'm really happy for your success xx

Thank you SO MUCH for doing this tutorial! I'm Japanese but their makeup products never really worked for me, and this video shows me exactly what I should buy! Everything you say about Japan is also impressively accurate and spot-on lol. One thing I would mention is that Jill Stuart's pink powder blushes are extremely popular there. The dollier, the better!

I don't usually comment. However one thing I would love for upcoming videos would be a chatty video with a celebrity/model or people that come into your studio. For example I loved hearing some of Alex's Chung's favourite products are. Too be honest I'd love to here that celebrities don't all use £200 foundations and eyeliners made of gold. That they do love things that us normal people can buy too 😆😊

Beautiful look! Loved the eyes. Congratulations on your book!

The eyelashes instantly made you look younger!!! Love them!

I'm Japanese and it was funny Lisa talked about a photo booth in Japan (we call "purikura", abbr. of "print club"). As Lisa said, recently the machine makes our eyes look much bigger as well as our legs look much thinner and longer ! lol I'm around 30 and most people of my age or higher feel we are like a kind of monster in a purikura photo.

You are seriously a master of your craft. You have the ability to capture certain subtleties that differentiate one makeup style from another. All while keeping it wearable and not straying into costume-y territory. This kind of just blew my mind! xx

So beautiful. You're such an amazing and inspiring artist. I greatly appreciate finding someone who (finally) did this right and with great explanations. It's always such a pleasure to watch your videos.

Lisa, it is amazing to see how exuberant you are about your book - you just beam :) How exciting for you to add author to your extensive list of talents! I'm incredibly excited for you. I'm also thrilled to see another video. I'm not going to lie, I let out a small squeal of excitement each time you post a new one. Many congratulations on the book!

I'm so excited for your book!!! Can't wait to order my copy!!! You inspire me so much. Love you!!

I can't take my eyes off your amazing mascara and fake lashes, they really make the eyes stand out so much.

I loved this look and how you explained everything. Asian makeup is so interesting because the style is so different from our western standards. I prefer this cute and innocent look over the heavily contoured one everytime. But I think you confused Ganguro, which is a very specific style, that nowadays mostly died out with Gyaru (which means girl :D). These styles have the same roots and there exist many substyles, but the overall name is Gyaru :3

I really enjoyed this video, 22 minutes seemed to me like 1! Love you and congrats for your book!

Congratulations on the book Lisa. It sounds fabulous. I just signed up on your mailing list and can't wait for the preview. ♥ Elle

What a beautiful and simple look. It seriously took years off, even with you already looking so young and fab. So young and fresh a pretty. And those lashes on you! They looked incredible!! Can't wait for your book! Lots if love from Canada!

I love to see how excited you got when you talked about the book! I'm really looking forward to get my hands on it! (Make-up is spot on, as always 😁)

I couldn't stop smiling while watching this video. Lisa, you are so beautiful and such a huge inspiration to all of us! Congrats on your book, I know it is going to be a success bringing a new chapter to your life and a new step in your career. Happy to hear that you are going to post more videos, I really missed them. So happy to follow you for a few years now and hope for more and more in the future. You bring so much confidence and self-respect to your followers, I just love you for beeing you. Thank you so much for what you do. It means a lot!

the lashes really did it :D

I watch "Kawaii International" here in the US. They've done episodes on how makeup styles have evolved. Some looks are a bit shocking, especially from an American perspective. If you have access to NHK World, I suggest watching the show. There's certainly a significant difference in terms of how long Japanese women stress dressing/appearing kawaii. I think, from a sociological perspective, it's interesting that teens and young women in Japan are encouraged (from either internal or external pressure) to be cute rather than mature or powerful. It's fascinating.

This look is stunning on you lisa! I can not wait to pick up your book! Congratulations!

I'm so looking forward to your book Lisa! Your videos are so educational themselves, and I can only imagine how wonderful your book will be! I really enjoyed this video- the Japanese makeup style is so beautiful.

Makes you look ten years younger!

Hi Lisa, I`ve been obsessing over your videos and I know you are a great makeup artist. But this video just shows that your talent and knowledge are incomparable. Ive been living here in Japan as a foreign student for almost 3 years now, and everything you said in this video are true. Im in awe, sugoi(amazing)! When I first arrive here I repulse the thought of makeup but living here has changed me. Makeup is such a big part of everyday Japanese life, in fact one can be considered unprepared if she shows up in the office and more especially in job interview without anything on.

I love asian packaging, especially Japanese. Also love Hello Kitty

Those eyelashes are incredible! X

There's always so much to learn from you Lisa. You're such a wonderful person!

Love this makeup look soooo cute!! Those packaging of the lipsticks so nice. Looking forward to reading your book. Xx

Im going to japan today and thanks for the tips!

This book is actually one I'm considering buying from a youtuber

I'm so excited about the book! You're amazing as always

I love how you executed this look. I like how you observed your environment and the people while you were in Japan and you strategically created a makeup look based on your "research". I feel like that's what draws me to your videos because you conduct yourself very professionally and your makeup looks always have a rhyme, reason, and purpose. I really admire people like that!

Study for finals< watch Lisa

I always feel good after watching your makeup tutorial videos because your theme is enhancing the beauty of women instead of the rampant videos of women beauty gurus who use makeup to look like drag queens.

I'm so excited for your book, I can't stand it!!!

I am very excited for your book to hit the shelves, I LOVE to read about the history of cosmetics, brands, trends, etc.

That foundation is INSANE! I want something like it so badly. Maybe you can drop a bug in Lancôme's ear? Full coverage usually means matte or drying, not good for fine lines.

What I wouldnt give to have Lisa do my makeup, just once - and tip me what I should own - which brushes what products

Gorgeous makeup for a gorgeous girl

Cant wait to see the cover and read the book...soooo excited!!!!!

::takes notes like a studios student::

you will love tsubasa masuwaka so much she's the creator of dollywink and candydoll

I have so much respect for you, you are very passionate about your art, you make me love make up even more !

Can't wait for it to come out, loved the videos you have done on the history of makeup xxx

Would love to see you do a bohemian/grunge look Lisa. Something that wouldn't look out of place on a Free People model. I'd love to know the best products for doing something like that.

I made this awful squealing noise when you said you're writing a book. I squealed even louder when you said it's going to be about history of make up. Make up and history are my two favourite things in the world, I can't wait for the book to be published!

Lisa, I loved hearing and seeing what you experienced in Japan !

I could honestly listen to you talk and apply makeup forever Lisa 💖 loved this look and cannot wait for your book. the history of makeup is just so interesting well done!

Can't wait for your book! Already have it pre-ordered on Amazon. So proud of you! I'm writing a book now myself so I know what an achievement it is to complete one.

I feel like they just put on makeup while this channel explains the process and the "how" and "why" better. Also, I understand product placement and trying to make a dollar but ONLY using real technique brushes gets old. These may not be good reasons to like one channel over another but that's how I see it in my head.

I'm normally a fan of your work but I personally do not like the whole Japanese fashion or make-up look. I find its obsession with youth and 'girls' creepy and unappealing.
