This research describes the design characteristics in Korea, China, and Japan by investigating makeup culture and toiletries. To find unique design characteristics, the toiletries of upper class women from the late 17th to 19th centuries were compared. The research methods included both reviewing previous publications and field studies. The three countries developed their own forms, proportions, materials and surfaces. Korean toiletries could be diverse and stable in forms and proportions, because they had various shapes and lower centroid. Korean women thought the symbolic meanings significant for their daily necessities, and preferred planar painting and engraving to decorate the patterns. The materials and surfaces of Korean toiletries were practical, soft, and gave less artificial process to reveal their natural material texture. Chinese toiletries had complex forms and were tall. For the patterns, symbolic meanings were significant as Korea. The patterns were carved in three-dimensional forms. Chinese women preferred rare materials. Japanese toiletries had simple lines and were easily stackable. Japanese women often used patterns for decorative purposes instead of symbolic meanings, and the patterns were mostly decorated with planar paintings. For the materials and surfaces, the Japanese preferred wood with lacquers and luxurious materials such as gold. In summary, the design characteristics of Korean toiletries had diverse forms, flexible proportions, painted patterns with symbolic meanings, practical materials and soft surface, while those of China had a complicated structure and carved patterns. Japan had simple forms, sharp edges, and layered structure with colorful lacquers.
