Hello world! This is my very first post on steemit and let me introduce myself. My name is stacee and I am from China. When I was living in Canada several years ago, there were some awkward moments when guys started to pick up with: Are you Korean/Are you Japanese (Even Vietnamese, trust me, but very few occasions). So here are simple tips to avoid such awkward lines.
1. If a girl with barely no make-ups, she is probably Chinese. Korean and Japanese girls that start makeups at teenage, but Chinese girls are not allowed until college, and some of them do not have daily make up routine . Moreover, it is popular to have "nude look" when girls pretend to look prettier without using make-up (but actually using even more cosmetics since it is challenging!).
2. If a girl has dark red or very bright red lip color, and if a girl has pale light skin color, she is probably Korean. Mid-aged Korean women prefer darker-red lip as it is fashion back in 1990s. Recently bright red lip is trendy in Korea, with very pale skin color. Most Korean girls are crazy to get a lighter skin color such as going to dermatologist and getting skin bleached.
3. If a girl has blonde hair and long eyelashes, she is probably Japanese. Most Japanese girls dye their hair brown, light brown or even golden brown, and it is hard to find a Japanese girl with black hair! Plus they really like crazy long eyelashes to make their eyes pop up on their face!
These small tips are based on my observation on my friends and my travel to Korea/Japan, and I hope they can be helpful when you make new friends:)
hoping for a follow back i'm new to steemit:)
Some pictures would have made this clear to understand :)

Having lived in Japan and in the U.S among asian communities I have been able to distinguish pretty well. One needs experience though. You should add some pictures in your post
