i can say i'm quite addicted to this talkshow. hahaha.. i'm quite late to latest korean trend lately since i'm into makeup, western brand makeup lately, and lipstick particularly. i thought my journey to find my perfect skincare is nearly over, so i'm quite lazy to check the trend, but turned out i'm missing out a bunch of good stuff. geezz... koreans are so innovative.. i don't know if i can keep up to their trend. okay.. back to the show, for the second episode, they're talking about pretty flower pinky makeup.. something fresh but girly to attract boys.
i will only focus on makeup segment since there are a lot of interesting products that i saw on the show. the first one is makeup demonstration by gain, the famous singer from brown eyed girl. there are a couple tips she shared on the show. in that show, gain told them that she's no expert in applying eyeliner, that's why pen eyeliner or brush eyeliner is good for beginner since it's easier to apply but has the bold color as liquid eyeliner or gel eyeliner. and she makes dots near her lashes before connecting the dots to make a line with her eyeliner. and then she will drag the tip 45 degrees upward to make cat eye. other point focal in her makeup is her lips. she also applies 45 degrees trick on her cupid bow to make her lips stand out. there are a couple interesting items that she brought, but i will share that later.
on makeup demonstration, there are two makeup demos shown. one is flowery makeup, girly and suitable for young girls, pure and simple like blooming flower. and the other one is chic pink, for older girls. for the flowery makeup, the focal point is the lip and the way to achieve it is using lip marker to give subtle pinky tint to the lips. and to make the base look subtle, apply the foundation using a sponge that has been soaked in the water for 30 minutes. asian are known for their short straight lashes, so if you want to make your lashes curl longer, try dusting it with powder before applying mascara. and for eyes, don't use pink, since it will make you look swollen.
for chic pink makeup, since it's for older women, there are couple tips here. make 45 degree angle contouring on the cheeks to make yourself look slimmer. and apply the eyeliner a little bit thicker at the beginning and then make a flick cat eye to make it look sexier. and reddish pink on the lips for older women to make it look chic.
on reader's letter segment, they discuss about how to make your face supple and younger. here are few tips. doing face exercise, drink a lot of water or spray moisturizing face mist, and massage your face with a massaging device.
okay.. enough with the tips. now let's talk about interesting items on the show. i've been looking for several items that gain showed in the show and i have a hard time finding them. turned out, at that time, gain was releasing her makeup line with pishabit, and it's called gxP. all items shown in the show were from her makeup line. but i'm interested in the lip tint/jelly duo and the higlighting/contouring duo. the lip tint/jelly duo is no innovation though, since it's supposed to get gradient lips that's been trending in korea for ages. i don't know if any western brand has this kind of lip product, but i think rimmel one is different though it has two ended side like this one.
the highlighting/contouring duo on the other hand, it's quite interesting. several western brand already have similar items, contouring/highlighting duo in one item, but mostly are stick. this one is liquid. which is interesting. and looking at gain applying it make it looks sooooo simple to use.
other interesting items are ink foundation (this one is from ysl, not a korean product) that is lightweight to achieve flawless base; lip marker for the flowery makeup trend. now... i don't know which exactly lip marker used in the show, but i found 3ce has lip marker tint with similar soft pink hue.
okay... i do hope i can get my hand on both gxP items i've mentioned before.. but i don't think it will be soon.. until then, if you want to watch the full episode, you can see it here:
