Our Story
Artistry built around
your moment
PlumSilk grew from a belief that skilled makeup artistry should feel personal, unhurried, and entirely suited to the person wearing it.

How PlumSilk began
PlumSilk was founded in Tainan's West Central District with a quiet conviction: that the most meaningful makeup appointments are the ones that happen without rush, without traffic, and without the client ever having to leave home.
The studio grew from years of working backstage at cultural venues, accompanying brides to mountainside ceremonies, and learning how light—morning haze over Tainan's old streets, the cool fluorescence of a gallery—changes everything about how colour reads on skin.
Today, PlumSilk travels across southern Taiwan with a considered kit, a preference for skin-kind products, and a deep respect for each client's own sense of beauty.

Our values
The principles that shape each visit we make.
Respect for pace
We never rush a session. Every application takes the time it needs—no more, no less.
Attention to context
The venue, the light, the event—all of it informs how we approach each application.
Product awareness
We favour formulas suited to Taiwan's warm, humid climate and to a wide range of skin tones and types.
Open dialogue
Preferences are discussed beforehand. Adjustments during the session are always welcome.
Commitment to travel
Coming to you isn't a bonus feature—it's the entire premise of what PlumSilk offers.
Hygiene standards
Tools are sanitised before each appointment. Single-use applicators are used wherever appropriate.

Home visit makeup artistry in Tainan
PlumSilk operates from West Central Tainan, one of Taiwan's most culturally rich districts—home to centuries-old temples, independent galleries, and a distinctive unhurried pace that shapes how the studio approaches its work. The surrounding environment—soft morning light filtering through old lanes, the composed atmosphere of cultural venues—has informed the way PlumSilk thinks about colour, finish, and timing.
The home visit model emerged from years of observing what clients actually need on important days: fewer logistics, more focus, and the ability to prepare in a familiar setting. Every PlumSilk session is designed around those needs—starting with a considered pre-visit conversation and ending with a result that feels genuinely suited to the person wearing it.
For morning events, gallery evenings, and destination weddings across southern and central Taiwan, PlumSilk offers a measured, professional service built around the natural rhythms of each client's day.
