Revamp Your Makeup Routine with these 6 Korean Beauty Trends

AKP STAFF


Korean beauty trends are known for their rapid evolution and innovation. From the gradient "popsicle lips" to shimmering makeup looks, the landscape of popular beauty styles is ever-changing. Here are six standout Korean makeup trends you might want to experiment with.

1. Caramel Blush: Whereas many people know that Korea loves shades of pink to red for most makeup products, one of the hottest Korean makeup trends seen more commonly is caramel blush. A light nude shade that gives you a sun-kissed glow and accentuates your look without making it look awkward.


2. Juicy Plump Lips: For the longest time, the trend in K-beauty was the popsicle lips. However, that has changed, with many more now sporting the look of glossy, juicy, and plump lips, and with products such as Romand's Glasting Lip Balm being sold out everywhere, this has become the more recent trend.


3. Clumpy Lashes: While people tend to try and avoid clumpy lashes, Korea actually made a trend. When you think of clumpy lashes, you think of a mess and raccoon eyes, but this trend is far from it. Inspired by the 1960s model Twiggy, after applying mascara, take a tweezer and gently pinch the tops of the lashes so they stick together, and you'll get doll-like lashes giving you a more defined and clean look.


4. Feather-like brows: The running trend was straight brows everywhere you looked. But have you noticed that many now no longer want that straight-brow look but are leaning more towards following the brow's natural arch and making it look more feathered out?


5. NewJeans makeup: Not only did these girls make a mark as power rookies, but they took the beauty community by storm with many influencers recreating what they called the "NewJeans makeup." Youthful and innocent, this is the perfect no/minimal-makeup makeup look.


6. Velvet Skin: It was all about that glow. Rarely would you be able to find a Korean cushion foundation that didn't have some kind of glowing effect in it. It was also very rare to find a matte foundation, but now wherever you go, rather than the glowy, hydrated look, you'll find that most cushion foundations that are being offered at road shops such as Olive Young and Missha have a wide variety of velvet and matte foundations.


It's interesting to see what kind of makeup trends come up in different cultures, but what do you think will be the next makeup trend in K-beauty?

There was a mascara that would clump your eyelashes together on purpose to give that look, but I can’t remember who had it or what it was called.
