Features: There are two ways to become beautiful—immediate beauty and long-term beauty. Immediate beauty includes aspects like makeup and clothing. While this requires a sense of trends and skills, entrusting it to specialists or referring to fashion or women's magazines won’t be too far off. However, maintaining beauty over the long term is much more challenging. For example, if you aim to lose weight over a year, even if you don’t have wrinkles now, you should also take care to prevent them in the future. Similarly, maintaining a perfect physique for 10 years or 20 years, and so on. Although it’s important for appearance to look beautiful in real-time, the eternal method of maintaining long-term beauty is what truly lasts. If you only focus on the present and neglect the beauty of your body from within, and only realize the need to pay attention after 10 to 20 years, it will truly be too late. While studying makeup techniques and trends, it’s also essential to maintain the balance of body and mind—this is the ultimate way of Asian beauty. The first book in the series is Beauty Beyond the Surface: Shaping the Body, which aims to ensure the normal functioning of external bodily mechanisms to achieve a balanced ideal physique. Additionally, it includes methods for addressing issues like body dullness, dry skin, body hair, body odor, and other beauty-related concerns that women pay special attention to.
