에프엑스 크리스탈 Red Light 메이크업 f(x) Krystal Red Light Makeup~❤

안녕~

The Red Light album has been one of my most played albums on my iTunes last month! I really love the Red Light MV - its sooo freaking amazing & different yet still has that f(x) feel to it!

I adore the half makeup style concept & Krystal's look is really beautiful & since I recently bleached my hair blonde (I'm dyeing it purple-red) I'd reckon I'd make the most out of my blonde hair for a Krystal inspired makeup tutorial! (´ω`) It's also because Krystal is my bias in f(x) *fangirls*

It's my first KPOP tutorial on my blog & is definitely different compared to my ulzzangy tutorials.

Let's gooo!~

Optional

Insert a circle lens on the eye that is going to be natural makeup. Krystal has no circle lens for the dark-dramatic makeup.
I did not have subtle blue/grey lenses so I just used my I.Fairy Super Crystal Blue lens~
 
Step 1
Start off with a clean face & apply moisturiser. I also spritzed on a facial mist for extra hydration & to prep my skin for makeup. The mist I used is almost like a primer for my skin & you can apply primer for a smoother base preparation.

Products used:- Garnier Moisture Match Ultra-hydrating Rich Cream & Etude House I'm Blooming Moisture Mist in Canola Honey.

Step 2
I then applied a light-sheer coverage foundation that has a slight dewy finish for a naturally bright & glowy base


Products used:- Innisfree Water Glow Cushion in 13 Light Beige

I also applied concealer to any blemishes I have. I lightly tapped the concealer on the problem area to increase the adhesion of the product for a natural coverage.

I also applied concealer to my dark eye circles & blended it with my ring finger.

Products used:- Etude House Surprise Essence Concealer in Light Beige
  
You can set the base with powder if you like but I only put a tiny bit of powder on my blemish & eyes to set the concealer ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

Step 3
I applied a light brown brow mascara to match my hair. 
If you are to fill or draw your brows in, try to make them slightly straight as Krystal's brows are straight & slanted.
 
Products used:- Etude House Colour my Brows in Light Brown

Step 4
Apply lip balm to your lips to hydrate & prep them for makeup later on. I just used my Vaseline Lip Therapy in Cocoa Butter.


Eyes
I'm only showing the tutorial for the main dark eye makeup~ My other eye makeup is very simple so I'll do a brief description on it later ( ´∀`)☆
I did not make my eyeshadow as dark as Krystal's because of my deep set eyes - Dark smokey eyes makes my eyes smaller ㅠㅠ So this is my take on the look! 

Step 1
 Prime lids with primer before hand!
Apply a light cream coloured eyeshadow over upper lids as a base~

 Apply a grey shadow lightly along lash line & apply more if you want a stronger colour.

Apply black eyeshadow starting from the outer corners of the eye in a wing. I softly apply the black over the grey eyeshadow & over the lid & crease for a slight gradation.

Apply the black eyeshadow softly on outer half of lower lash line.to frame eyes. (shown in photo below)
Products used:- MUA Makeup Academy Undressed Eyeshadow Palette

Step 2

Use liquid or gel liner & draw a thin line over your upper lash line & draw out in a sharp wing.



Products used:- Etude House Oh~ M'Eye Line Liquid Eyeliner in No.1 Black

Line your waterline with black eye pencil~ 

Products used:- Etude House Styling Eyeliner in Black


Lightly dust a little bit of black eyeshadow along the rest of your lower lid. I actually forgot to do this thats why the photo came in later! щ(ಥДಥщ)

Apply a concealer along edge of makeup to tidy up the eye for clearer makeup. I blend out with a edge of a clean sponge.

Step 3
Curl your eyelashes. I really recommend curling your lashes because it makes the eye look more open with dark makeup!
My pairs of falsies are far too dolly & sweet for this look so I just opted with plenty of mascara. I do recommend false eyelashes to really complete the half makeup look!

I apply the mascara close to the roots & rolling the brush slowly upwards & then I ziz-zag to avoid too much clumping.

Products used:- Tony Moly Delight Circle Lens Mascara in No.1 Volume Circle

I avoided applying mascara on my lower lashes as I wanted to keep a clear focus on the spikey lower false lashes. 

Krystal has three large spikey lower lash pieces on her dark eye so I used separate lower lashes &  applied them as close to my lash line as possible. I later applied black liquid liner over the glue when the glue dried. 
 
Products used:- Dolly Wink in No.7 Vivid Pop

Eyes are done!



Lips
Krystal's lips are gorgeous black cherry colour which looks quite matte. I do not own a colour like that (simply because it does not suit me & my lips are quite full) but I made it! 
So if you do not own a black cherry lip product, try my way!
 
Step 1
I tapped a red lipstick very lightly on my lips & then drew black liner on my lips. I blended out the liner & then tap more red lipstick on my lips - & repeat!
 I repeat until a get my desired colour!
I then applied a clear gloss despite Krystal's lips are matte because the eyeliner dries my lips up a little bit~
I think a glossy lip really completes the look on my face.

Products used:- Innisfree Color Glow Lipstick in No.4Watery Cherry Red. L'oreal Super Liner Gelmatic in Ultra Black. Laval Clear Gloss


f(x) Red Light look is complete!!

 Ay- Ay- It’s a Red Light, Light 이건 실제상황 뭐가 잘못된 건지도 몰라
Ay- Ay- It’s a Red Light, Light 경고하는 누군가 목소리를 잘 들어 Red Light

잠시만 숨을 쉬어봐 Eh- Oh-Eh-Oh 이건 전쟁이 아니야
 I kept my other eyes veeeery simple with a little bit of brown-bronze gel liner in a small wing, one coat of mascara & all finishing with shimmery shadow on my inner lash line.

Of course I used chains in my hair & a few crosses but they didn't show in the photos that well щ(ಥДಥщ) I had the camera zoomed in! - ah well~ 
 I'm so happy my dark makeup came out okay! - Sometimes I look like a raccoon ;^;


I think the makeup look of f(x) is gorgeous with its half-concept! Though its only great for photos because really. . . 
 I can't go outside like this! ヽ(゜∇゜)ノ  Herp-a-Derp!

The makeup is quite a change:-
 The first photo I took a couple hours before I did this tutorial! Same day!

 My favourite shot! The flame was not that close to my face ^^ It's actually close to the lens & zoomed in to focus on my face (○´∀`○) I was careful!

I had a lot of fun creating this f(x) inspired look! I've had the album playing while I doing the makeup & typing it now!
I understand that some of you wanted a different style tutorial so I hope for my first KPOP tutorial, it was a good one! (ノ*^▽^)ノ Feel free to comment your thoughts on my take of the look!

I love you all & enjoy the rest of weekend!!  (。・ω・。)ノ
