Traditionally geishas would paint their entire face perfectly white, even their eyebrows and lips. They would extend the paint down their neck, to where the clothing started, and created a double point pattern down the upper back. then they would use a very dark color to paint over the eyebrows to make them perfectly shaped, high and arched. Next they would paint their lips bright red and perfectly shaped. Also to to Google.com and search for images of a geisha for more examples.
