Everything You Need If You're Obsessed With K-Pop Idol Makeup Looks

K-pop beauty: Never boring, always colorful and fun. It's pretty easy to look up to K-pop idols like Lisa of BLACKPINK, Nancy of Momoland, Jessica Jung, Tiffany Young, Oh My Girl, Red Velvet, Chungha, and G-IDLE, to name a few, as beauty pegs. Let's decode their looks and find out how to cop them IRL below!

BASE

K-pop idols, like K-drama actresses, all sport porcelain-smooth glass skin. To cop this, prep your skin with a dewy primer, pat cushion base makeup all over the face, and dab concealer only on the parts that need coverage.

1. This clear primer blurs out pores, fine wrinkles, and shallow acne scars. Its velvety finish never gets too shiny or matte.

BLUSH/CONTOUR

K-pop idols aren't into sculpting their faces like their Western counterparts. Their makeup artists just lightly sweep a pastel-hued blush on their cheeks.

1. Swirl the brush onto the two shades for glowing cheeks!

EYES

Eye makeup is considered the focal point of their look. They wear colorful or glitter eyeshadow on their lids, extend their eyeliner to lengthen their eye shape, and put on falsies to make their peepers appear bigger.

1. You only need your fingers to score sparkly lids.
