If at all
possible, do not apply foundation or powder to your face. Find a tinted
moisturizer for your face and apply to cheeks, forehead, chin, and the space
between your nose and lips, but not on your nose. Find a good concealer to
cover dark spots or small break outs.
Apply
concealer in one (no more than one) shade lighter than your skin underneath
your eyes and on your eyelid. Let concealer sit for at least one minute.
Completely rub in concealer.
Apply
liquid eyeliner in a thin line on your top eyelid. A helpful way to keep the
eyeliner thin is to actually apply liner to the roots of your eyelashes.
Wing the
liquid eyeliner on the outer edge of your eye. Do not make the wing too
dramatic. Also, shape the wing in a way that fits your eye shape, or in a way
that simply seems to extend your lash line in an slightly upward-swooping
direction.
Apply pale peach
eyeshadow (if skin tone is light brown) or white eyeshadow (if skin is fair) to
the crease of your eyelid. Apply the eyeshadow just above the crease as well.
This will help to lessen the intensity of the double eyelid.
Apply a
light layer of mascara to the upper lid's eyelashes. Apply a second coat of
mascara to only the outer lashes on the upper lid.
Rub an
eyeshadow brush or Q-Tip in a medium brown eyeshadow (if skin tone is light
brown) or tan eyeshadow (if skin tone is fair). Make sure that this eyeshadow
is one shade darker than your skin tone. Then, blow on the brush or Q-Tip to
relieve some of the powder. Squint your eyes as though you are smiling with
just only eyes and notice the flesh gathered below your bottom lash line,
almost like a small pouch of fat. Apply eyeshadow just below this pouch. Rub in
to blend.
Take the
same eyeshadow that you used for the crease on your upper lid (either the pale
peach or the white) and apply this to your bottom lash line. Steps 7 and 8
create a look called "aegyo sal," which is very popular in Korea. The
girl in the picture in the introduction has aegyo sal.
Apply
mascara to the outer lashes on the bottom lash line. Be very careful not to get
any mascara on your skin. Apply only to lashes!
Use only
chapstick on your lips. A lip stain, lipstick, or gloss will emphasize the
difference between your mouth and the shape of Asian girls' mouths.
