Makeup Demystified: Hyuna Makeup in PSY "Gangnam Style" MV




Who hasn't seen this video has been living in a CAVE!
I was walking past the video shops, IT roadshows, surfing on facebook, websites... this is EVERYWHERE!

In case, you are wondering wth they are singing about ...
The lyrics:

A girl who is warm and human during the day
A classy girl who knows how to enjoy the freedom of a cup of coffee
A girl whose heart gets hotter when night comes
A girl with that kind of twist
I’m a guy
A guy who is as warm as you during the day
A guy who one-shots his coffee before it even cools down
A guy whose heart bursts when night comes
That kind of guy
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Now let’s go until the end

Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh

A girl who looks quiet but plays when she plays
A girl who puts her hair down when the right time comes
A girl who covers herself but is more sexy than a girl who bares it all
A sensable girl like that

I’m a guy
A guy who seems calm but plays when he plays
A guy who goes completely crazy when the right time comes
A guy who has bulging ideas rather than muscles
That kind of guy

And WAYY is this MV such a craze trend?? So much that its running through your head all day and you still can't get ENOUGH of it? 
HIGHLY ADDICTIVE. EXPLOSIVE . HILARIOUS


"Oppa, gangnam style!"Or... new version featuring Hyuna

"Oppa, ttatnae style!"

Oppa: an cutely affectionate term for boyfriend or brother
Gangnam Style : Beverly Hills of Korea (affluent circle)
Ttaenae Style : You are my style


Of cos its the Dance steps PSY came up with! The fake-horse ride dance!
Timing . Right Tune . Everything.

PSY
He is a singer-dancer-songwriter for almost a decade but until Gangnam style, the world sits up and takes notice. Even Justin Bieber is doing a collaboration sooon with PSY.
Super hilarious guy who is big sized but so agile when he dances. In a hilarious way with a twist of humour in it for sho! (see 1st video at 4:19)

HYUNA
And she? Hyuna, member of 4 Minute. Her own Solo "Bubble Pop" brought her to public criticism or obsession for her provocative voice & dance moves. Very good at moving her lithe body.
Some people say she acts like a slut. But why get so worked up & jealous for her?
Its all for entertainment value. Just like Ayumi in her concert, Lady Gaga & Madonna who have awesome stage presence, behaves & dances like that on stage. Its an act, not her personality.
It's ONLY a dance, why be so serious?! Don't we all LUVE ENTERTAINMENT & ENTERTAINERS?!

Back to talking about MAKEUP!
My fave topic!!!!!!







As seen here, pretty simple natural look she has.
The smoothness of her skin is enhanced by the clever lighting used in most Korean MVs, very fairy ethereal perfection.


FACE: Flawless smooth perfection. Luminous only on eyelids, enhanced nose bridge (Diamond Beauty Nose Makeup, Guardian S$24.90) & top of cheekbones
Primer is a MUST here. (Highly recommended: Mary Kay Foundation Primer S$40, Hourglass Mineral Primer S$78)
Foundation that is micro fine is a MUST MUST here too. (Mary Kay Mineral Foundation S$35, DiorSnow Foundation S$105) Anything too heavy looks fake.

BRONZER: Urban Decay Toasted Bronzer S$40

BROWS: Camouflaged. Lightened to look almost non existent. Ways to lighten brows: Use a concealer or brow concealer (Diamond Beauty 01, Guardian S$24.90) or stick foundation to lighten your brows. Then fill it in with a light caramel brown eyeshadow (Mary Kay Hazelnut eyeshadow S$13, PM me for orders)

***IMPT***


EYES: The Key Feature of her entire sexy glamorous look.
~ Its kept very simple. Champagne eyeshadow on lids. Liner extended at corners in an innocent droopy cat eyes style, both top & bottom lashline, shimmer pearl on inner 1/2 of eyes, glitter (butterfly/ star/ heart/ flower) using high glitter liner or diamante glued under eyes. Mascara for top lashes only.

& of course, those sexy LIPS. Don't you wanna KISS her?

AFTER THIS MAKEUP,
LET'S DANCE!!!

The horse dance!
Who wants a ride now? ^_~

Oh don't forget to pull out a glittery short dress to look totally party ready! HAWT!

P.S. Here's my inspired PSY Gangnam Style /Hyuna Look done with eyeliner & jewels! Like?? ;) LUVE!

Makeup Demystified: Korean Nude Makeup



Question: How to look sexy with "no makeup"?
Answer: Korean Natural/ Nude Eyes

It's the IT trend now. "No Makeup Makeup" Look that's seen on every magazine cover in Japan, Korea, USA, Hongkong and even Singapore! Just look at every guy's fantasy girl is any girl in Girls Generation. They all look demure & sweet.

Yet to achieve that "flawless" look, you need makeup to achieve. Naked eyes cant see, but expert eyes can tell you if the celebrity uses makeup to enhance her features!

Everytime I receive a fashion or bridal makeup request, it used to be Smokey Eyes. Now its "Nude Eyes" being the Number 1 most asked for look. Now you are crying and groaning. "Nude eyes is also the Number 1 most difficult look!!!"

Nude Eyes is ....

The "nothing on" eyes?
The clean look?
Every attempt you tried just makes your eyes look spaced out but nothing near sexy?


Most girls gave up after 1-2 attempts of nude eyes. Don't give up!

Here are some examples of my popular versions of NUDE EYES!
See! Nude eyes doesn't really have to be BLANK!
It can be so fuss free!


To achieve an effortless Nude eyes, all you need 3 items - Eye Primer, 1 Nude Brown Eyeshadow & Black Eyeliner.


THE PRIME - APPLY - DEFINE TECHNIQUE by Gel



Step 1: PRIME EYES

To get the smooth blended effect, EYE PRIMER is a MUST! Primer keeps the lids clean and brighter looking.
Colors last longer for more than 8 hours.
My current favorite is Mary Kay Eye Primer. Urban Decay works very well too.


Step 2: APPLY SHADOW
Apply the nude brown shadow all over the eyelid.


STEP 3: DEFINE LASH & EYES
Using eyeliner to define eyes are the quickest method.

Add Black liner & false lashes and Voila! The look is complete! ;)
Nude eyes must go with natural false lashes.

I also love teaching Korean Nude Eyes in my workshops! ^_~

Complete the lips with natural pink gloss & cheeks with princess pink blush!
