Gigi's guide to a perfect makeup look! π:
To achieve the perfect makeup look you need to know your face type and your undertone. Based off this information will be the makeup look that suits you best! ✨
Different types of facesπ:
There are many ways to tell your face type and many quizzes online but in this post I'm going to focus on the Chinese "taste" types of faces. The 4 different types of face are sweet (ηη³»), salty (ηη³») , spicy (θΎ£η³»), and bitter (θ¦η³»).
The sweet face (ηη³»)❤:
The sweet face is a cute, refreshing type of face with more rounded, curved and simple features giving an innocent or pure appearance. In my opinion some examples would be: HAYOUNG from Fromis_9 , or HYEONGJUN from Cravity.π
The salty face (ηη³» )❤:
The salty face has more of a mature and sharper type of look. It also has some "clean girl" vibes and also a chic sort of look. A very popular example of this would be KRYSTAL from fx.π
The spicy face (θΎ£η³»)π€:
The spicy face is more of an attractive or "sexy" type of vibe. This face has very sharp features with high cheekbones, a very popular example of this being LISA from blackpink. π€
The bitter face (θ¦η³»)❤:
The bitter face has more structured features with slightly lower cheekbones with a more powerful / sophisticated look. in my opinion an example of this would be JIHYO from twice. π

Undertone: π
Undertone is a little bit easier to understand, you can tell it by the color of your veins. If you have blue / purple veins then you have a cool undertone , If you have blue / green veins then you have a neutral undertone , if you have green veins then you have a warm undertone.
"How do I do my makeup based off undertone?"
Cool-toned makeup:
If you have a cool undertone then you should consider using pinks, cool browns (greyish brown), and generally more matte or pastel colors.
Here is some examples of the cool-toned makeup look:
CM
A
K
E
U
P
Warm-toned makeup:
If you have a warm undertone then you should wear warm browns, orange & gold colors. You should definitely invest in some bronzer.
WEVERY MAKEUP LOOK NEEDS:
-Concealer.
-A Base (foundation or BB cream).
-Eyebrow gel.
-Curled lashes.
-A Lip product.
-Mascara.
