The upcoming trend in Korean makeup is the “Neutro makeup,” characterized by soft, muted colors around the eyes, creating a cool yet feminine vibe. “Neutro” is a portmanteau of “new” and “retro,” becoming a trend word in recent years. Its ease of imitation without using dark colors makes it worth trying to update to the latest look.
Point 1: Semi-matte skin texture.
While glossy skin is still popular, the real trend this year is semi-matte skin texture. The charm of this skin feel is its seamless connection with the matte texture of eyeshadows.
Point 2: Cool yet feminine smoky pink eye makeup
The trend of muted color eyeshadows continues, and a light smoky eye can create depth without appearing too heavy, resulting in a cool yet feminine, attractive look. This is a key to understanding the allure of Korean makeup, similar to the presence of the trending girl group NewJeans.
Point 3: Plump color over-lip for full lips
Speaking of trend makeup, plump lips are all the rage, to the point where over-lips are a must. Applying a matte lipstick as a base and then layering gloss on top prevents the color from bleeding outside the lip lines and gathers light, enhancing the three-dimensional effect, making the use of two products essential.
