BarbiePunk's video: Japanese Trends: Ishoku Hada

In today's video, I paint myself purple. Japanese fashion is so fun and freeing that I love to delve into the different subcultures that were born there. Today we take a closer look at Ishoku Hada which means beautiful/colorful skin. It is a subsection of kawaii that takes a lot of inspiration from ganguro as well as cosplay and monster girl or alien girl fashion. The main point of this subculture is to paint your skin a color from the rainbow. It's a lot about creativity and self expression. Also, you may have noticed I kinda stopped doing vlogmas. It was just too stressful and I wanted to enjoy the holidays a little more. ALSO ALSO, the thumbnail is a reference to Lhouraii's instagram where she is a self proclaimed Alien Freak. She uses the term in a positive way just as I call you weirdos in a positive way. ~*LINKS*~ Lhouraii: https://www.youtube.com/user/LIGYARU https://www.instagram.com/lhouraii/ Happy Unbirthday: https://www.youtube.com/user/Mismarissa12 https://www.instagram.com/happyunbirthday1/ Smella Catshine: https://www.instagram.com/xxanemia/ Stevie: https://www.instagram.com/stevieryugazaki/ Riyuyu: https://www.instagram.com/_riyuyu_/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_barbiepunk Poshmark: https://poshmark.com/closet/_barbiepunk Other channel: http://www.youtube.com/heartstarmoonsun
