Construction of make-up design in make-up treatment is an important process based on visual observation and impression analysis of the other person's face. Experienced visual impression analysis skills lead to the construction of appropriate make-up designs and the selection of treatment methods. In this study, we focused on the gaze during impression analysis by experienced make-up artists (experts) and novices who are in training. We measured the gazes of experts and novices looking at facial images of the bare skin of a woman in her 20s and a woman in her 50s. For the measurement results, we set areas of interest (AOIs) on important parts of the face in the make-up treatment, and calculated the fixation rate for each. The results suggest that there are some differences in the gaze patterns of experienced make-up artists and novices in training. There were also differences in the type and color of cosmetics selected, and we discussed them. Based on the results of this study, we will formalize the skills of experienced make-up artists in a form that can be transferred and construct a self-learning system that allows learning on tablets and other devices similar to learning in professional training.
