Natural Flawless Look (Korean Makeup, the Basics)



natural &beautiful korean makeup

http://www.cl2425.com

I've had numerous requests on different Korean celebs, so I decided to this video as a response to those that asked for the similar look. "The Glowy, Flawless Look" that a majority of Korean Celebrities pursue.

The general Korean perspective of Beauty is clean, flawless, simple,calm and nothing messy or built up. No messy clumps of mascara, no harsh colors, no funky makeup. Just simple and clean looks are raved in Korea.
- The only peculiar thing about Korean Makeup is the really thick, harsh and straight eye brows.. I think it's done so to bring some feature to the face since most Koreans have small features..
I personally don't like thick brows ... but it's only a difference in preference. :)
Especially clean, flawless looking skin is such an important aspect of beauty (along with clean, healthy hair and teeth, and well.. basically everything :)

So, here is.
Just a touch of makeup that will cover up your flaws, but won't leave you looking too made up.

Have fun ladies~!


** PS. Sorry, I was sick =/ and am still sick.. I look a bit yellow and like a dead fish in the video. But, I'll try my best to upload on a more regular basis!

Thanks for waiting in patience ~~

My name is Marisa~! For the past three months, I have been living in Korea with my boyfriend and his parents and learning everything there is to learn about this fantastic country. When I came here, I discovered a whole new side of beauty that I feel the US hasn't experienced. For the "All Around the World" theme of AllThatGlitters21's contest, I decided to show the contemporary Korean ideal look, with my own white girl twist. Oh, I wish I could show you more! The time limit, I'm afraid, is crippling.

Anyway, I only have a few more weeks in Korea before I leave to go back home for school. I'm trying to figure out how to translate this look into American products. I'll let you know when I figure out the best combo! =D

Please rate and comment! This is my first video and I would like to do more in the future! Does anyone have any suggestions for me? What would you like to see me try? Please Subscribe! It will make my day!

Everyone enjoy!
