I was instantly captivated by this pictorial—it's so gentle and beautiful! So this time, I'm recreating the makeup look from the pictorial. The entire look is actually quite simple, focusing on subtle techniques to enhance the eyes.
Kim Go-eun's Ghostly Makeup Tutorial
Step 1: Observing the poster reveals her eyebrows are relatively straight and flat, with only a slight downward curve at the tails—the arch isn't pronounced. They appear fluffy rather than thin, colored in a light brown shade lighter than her hair. Start by using an eyebrow pencil to sketch the basic outline, referencing her brow shape.
Step 2: To achieve the fluffy effect, fill in the brows with brow powder, using a lighter shade near the inner corners.
Step 3: Finally, use a tinted brow gel in a shade lighter than your hair color to unify the brow tone.
Step 4: Apply a light brown eyeshadow as a base across the entire upper eyelid to minimize the appearance of puffy eyes.
Step 5:Choose a neutral brown shade and apply it to the outer and inner corners of the eyes. Blend it cleanly to make the eyes appear more deep-set.
Step 6: Apply a dark brown shade close to the lash line and blend it upwards. Here, a reddish-brown shade was chosen.
Step 7: To make the upper and lower eyelids look more balanced, apply the dark brown shade to the outer corner of the lower eyelid as well.
Step 8: Finally, choose a white highlighter with a brightening effect and apply it to the center of the upper eyelid and the tear trough under the inner corner of the eye.
Step 9: Apply eyeliner slightly extending outward according to your eye shape.
Step 8: Finally, use a brightening white shade to highlight the center of the upper eyelid and the inner corner tear trough.
Step 9: Apply eyeliner slightly beyond the outer corner based on your eye shape. Keep it close to the lash line at the front and slightly thicken it at the outer corner.
Step 10: Finish with mascara, and your eye makeup is complete!Ensure lashes are separated and defined.
Step 11: As seen in the image, the nose tip has distinct contours, making nose contouring crucial.
Step 12: Opt for a natural pink blush, sweeping from the apples of the cheeks toward the cheekbones.
Step 13: Choose a rose-beige lipstick and apply it fully across the lips.
