The white face is a traitor and the red face is a loyal minister, which is the most basic understanding of Facebook among the people. Apart from painting a white face, Cao Cao's facial makeup in the Han drama in western Fujian also painted a "magic mirror" on his forehead, so that different colors can be painted on different occasions to reflect different attitudes towards him.
For example, Cao Cao in the drama "Meng De Sacrifice Knife", his assassination of Dong Zhuo was a just move, so he painted the "demon mirror" red; In the play "Battle of Wancheng", on the one hand, he rebelled because of lust, on the other hand, he cut off his hair and beard and applied for military orders. Good and evil were intertwined, so he painted the "corpse mirror" gray; In the "Chen Gong Plan", he was suspicious and killed innocent people, which was pure evil and his "mirror" was blacked out.
Weichi Gong's facial makeup is black face and white forehead, but the lower eyelid leaves the actor's own skin color without blackening, and the corners of his mouth are hooked into thick lips with white edges, just like the expression of the left goalkeeper in the woodblock New Year pictures in Qing Dynasty. Draw an exaggerated red triangle "sun rib" in the middle of the forehead.
Usually I often say "black Zhang Fei", but I didn't discredit my face. Instead, I drew a black flying bat-shaped pattern and a wooden comb-shaped "cat-man eyebrow" on my dark green face, and then drew a small green snake on my white forehead, with a red dot in Tang Yin, indicating that I made good use of the Octopus snake spear and a red heart loyal to Taoyuan. Both of them are green-faced Yao Gang, with a red dot on his eyebrows, but a green dragonfly is outlined on his white forehead, which is puzzling.
Zhong Wuyan is the most common cross-faced figure in singles, which can be found in Siguoqi, Qiujiang and Cai Yong. The face painted by Zhong Wuyan is called "Ercong Face", and the right side of the face is disguised as a beautiful woman with a good face. The left side of the face is painted red and green like a hag.
Ugly faces are painted according to the type of characters, which is unique. It not only embodies the beauty in ugliness, but also has folk philosophy and irony. At the same time, it also inherited a unique rule: the size of the white blocks around the nose and eyes distinguishes the power and status of the characters.
The white block is big enough to cover half of the face, and it is called "dried sweet potato", which is a spectrum used by ugly people pretending to be masters and tyrants. Wang Qi in The Romance of the Four Kingdoms and Qin Shihuang of Meng Jiangnv both used this formula to hook their faces.
According to its shape, white blocks are called "dried bean curd", "half moon", "plum blossom" and "olive pit", which are used to dress up corrupt officials, playboys, prostitutes and slaves. Hui Ji, the young monk who fell homesick in "The Hill", turned out to be "a white nose can not be pointed", which is already a costume show that is almost handsome.
There are few ugly women's styles, but there is a kind of "gourd style" which is quite distinctive and immediately reminds people of an image of pungent gossip. In the old days, ugly girls were played by actors as usual, and large and small gourd-shaped white blocks were painted on their noses.
However, in the end, when the actress played Cai Danxing, she abandoned the traditional program and gradually changed to a little makeup instead of moles and eyebrows. The traditional facial makeup of ugly women has become a rare variety.
