Make-up, also known as "huadian" in ancient China, were flower-shaped ornaments worn by women on their temples, eyebrows, or cheeks. They were crafted from materials such as gold, jade, and precious gems, commonly available in red, green, and yellow colors, with red being the most prevalent. Flower hairpins came in various shapes, such as peach-shaped, plum blossom-shaped, lotus-shaped, crescent-shaped, round, triangular, conical, pomegranate flower-shaped, three-leaf-shaped, as well as depictions of flowers, birds, insects, and fish. These ornate flower hairpins, when worn on the forehead, resembled vivid and colorful flowers, enhancing the allure of women's makeup.
Flower hairpins appeared as early as the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, reaching their peak during the late Tang Dynasty. Poetic descriptions like "Spring shade casts upon the emerald flower hairpin," "The deep green hairpin between the brows," and "Cutting small flower hairpins from goose-yellow silk" vividly depict women in the Tang Dynasty adorning themselves with flower hairpins. In the Tang Dynasty, flower hairpins were commonly seen in red, yellow, and green colors, with red being the most prevalent.
