Kara – ‘Jumping’ Sparkly Make-up Tutorial

Want to snag the understated sexy make-up look of Kara in their latest release, ‘Jumping’?
Korean make-up artist Jung Saem Mool is an expert in Korean celebrity make up, and she shows you how to achieve the look in the video below.

The video has no voice overs, and shows only Korean text — however, it’s very, very easy to follow. Fangirl Diaries has also translated the description and the list of make-up brands and tools that she used. Read on!

“Hallyu stars Kara have released their fourth mini-album called ‘Jumping’, where they showcase a more mature look. Their make-up looks main features are: their shiny smooth skin, and bejeweled eyelashes. First, use foundation and concealer to cover skin imperfections. Then, a blush and shimmer highlighter for luster and depth. Apply shading powder under your cheekbones for a faint shadow. Use eyeliner and beige shadow to create long lines along your top and bottom lashes. For the main effect, use different types of lashes, including those with a touch of pearls/jewels along the bottom lash line for added texture. Finish off with nude/pink lip gloss with a touch of pearls and your ‘Jumping’ sexy but youthful makeup is now complete!”

Don’t worry if you don’t have the exact same products. As with everything in make-up, you don’t have to have the same tools to be able to achieve the look. If you’re worried that this look is too fierce or strong for you, you can skip the eyeliner and focus on the pink and beige tones demonstrated during the first part of the video.

Be creative and have fun! Most importantly, carry the look with the same youthful charm as Hara, Nicole, Gyuri, Jiyoung and Seunghyun!
