Kose holds "Mermaid Japan" makeup workshop

 As a beauty creation company, the company supports promotion from various aspects in various sports competitions that include elements such as "beauty", "artistic" and "fashionable".

Since signing an official sponsorship contract with "Mermaid Japan" in April 2006, we have continued to support them. By teaching make-up expressions suitable for the performance and make-up techniques that do not fall apart even during intense underwater performances, we support athletes so that they can concentrate on their performances with peace of mind.

At the make-up workshop, Kose make-up artist Isao Ishii taught the athletes how to make-up that was devised according to the swimsuit and the world of the performance.

For base make-up, we mainly use long-lasting commercially available products such as "Facio" and "Make-up Keep Powder". For the point makeup, eye shadows and lipsticks with good color development such as “Visée Avant” and “Addiction” were used to create gorgeous makeup that left a strong impression on the judges.

On the day of the tournament, the athletes put on their own make-up, so after listening to Mr. Ishii's lecture, I had the athletes do their own make-up. After the make-up, we lined up in a row and checked if everyone looked the same from the position that assumed the judge's seat. The position of the cheeks and the thickness and length of the eyeliner were individually adjusted according to individual facial features and skin color, and fine nuances were improved. Since the make-up of artistic swimming has a great influence on the expressiveness of the performance, in the image of the team's free routine theme "chess", eyeliner is drawn under the eyes, and the two outer corners of the eyes are flipped thickly to create a cool knight. Finished with makeup that imaged.
