At the camp. Aren’t they beautiful?! Tanaka is the powder on their faces. It’s regarded as a sort of make-up. It is made from ground sandalwood mixed with water, and is actually quite amazing. It works as a sunblock and apparently also keeps your skin clear. The artistic way it is put on is just a wonderful benefit. Where I am living they also love to wear it, but only on days they will be staying at home as it is a clear signal that they are from Burma.
