Amazing Body Painting
As a sub-type of this art, style called “face painting” appeared, mostly used in the contemporary fashion scene.
Bodies were always painted with various dyes from nature, and it exists in all tribe cultures. In its primitive version, it was an addition to ceremonies, and it is alive in Australia even today, as well as Island and parts of Africa.

The famous hana tattoo was practiced in India and the Middle East, especially during wedding ceremonies. This style became popular in the 1990s among western culture youth.
Tribes in North America traditionally used various magnolia products (achiote, anatto, huito) in order to ornament their faces and bodies.

It experienced a new “revival” in the western world in 1993 at Worlds Fair in Chicago when Max Factor painted a model with new make-up, intended for the Hollywood stars. The final result was their arrest with charges for disturbing public order and peace.
