How Aespa’s Giselle Perfects No-Makeup Makeup

Hey guys, it s Giselle

and today I m gonna walk you

through my skincare and beauty tips.

I had makeup done last night,

so I need to cleanse my skin with this.

These clips are Doraemon clips.

I always get these when I go to Japan.

I put about this much.

[gentle upbeat music]

This also I got recently.

It s like the simple stuff

that works best for me.

So like I don t like use too much.

Not much.

Two weeks ago I realized I ve been using

like Essence Ampoules, like before putting on cream

and I never knew what goes first,

but I think what works better

for my face is putting cream first.

I got this from my trainer.

Thank you.

It s some kind of repair oil.

It smells good.

[gentle upbeat music]

With my trainer besides working out,

she s like my therapist as well.

We talk a lot about life and all that

and I think mental health is like very important.

But I think kind of just being in touch

with yourself and taking time,

before going sleep,

like actually thinking, reflecting.

You kind of forget about it,

like you re just tired so you just go to sleep.

But like if you really,

I guess you can say meditate, that helps a lot.

I got this in LA.

They had like a collab with Baskin Robbins

and it s cool cause it s three colors.

Before I go to bed

where it s like I don t really care,

then I use like the white part,

then I want a little pink,

then I use the pink part.

I never grew up wearing sunscreen.

I regret that a lot.

If I were to give anyone advice,

I would say wear a sunscreen.

I try to use whatever base I have

that has like SPF in it.

So this is what I use.

The Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer.

This routine is pretty much the same

since like 2016.

I still remember

all the trendy products back then.

So what I m gonna show you today is kind

of just more of a no makeup, makeup look.

[gentle upbeat music]

When we do makeup there s definitely a lot

of different styles that we try,

but I think for myself I try to match

with the group cause what makeup fits me

is actually like a lot less makeup.

I feel like with too much makeup I kind

of look kind of cakey, that s the word.

I don t wanna be like the only one

that has like no makeup on next

to everyone who has a lot of makeup on.

We all have like a signature thing.

Karina, she does eyeliner a lot thicker

on the inner corners.

Winter is also the same

with the eyeliner on the inner corners

and she puts a lot blush.

I think she puts like most blush

out of all of us.

Ningning always looks good when she has kind

of like smoky and like bronzer and highlighter,

like that kind of Betty look.

Yeah, she looks good with that.

I have a long face.

I need to like kind of give some impact

here kind of even and out.

So right now I m filling my eyebrows

in with Kosas.

In high school, those were the days,

where that was like the 2016 makeup [chuckles]

where it was like hard brows.

Like I would use the Anastasia like pot.

I used to those like really thick, thick brows.

I wanted to pull up to school

like looking kind of cute.

So I would watch like a lot of YouTube videos,

just like normal teenager stuff.

And Sephora was like, Oh my god,

there s a Sephora here, type of thing.

So I would go there and just like try

to get whatever and copy the makeup looks

and that s kind of where the interest started.

I was born in Korea

and then I moved straight to Japan

and I ve been living in Tokyo

for like my whole life until 2019.

And then I think I was like middle school.

That was like when I started to want

to wear makeup and do my hair and all that.

[gentle upbeat music]

I feel like Japanese and Korean makeup

is kind of similar and like the trends,

they kind of go hand in hand.

Japanese people go for a little bit more,

but like a cutesy look

or it s like a completely strong heavy makeup,

like long nails, big eyelashes,

you know a little bit of smoky stuff going on.

Or in Korea it s either the same trend

or less cute and just a little more like beauty.

[gentle upbeat music]

Before I get into eye makeup,

I m gonna choose my lens.

We wear contact lenses.

I really, really, really

like the way I look changes a lot

with like which lens I wear.

The ones that I usually wear are just black.

I ll just try something

that I haven t tried before.

This one s kind of bright.

This is brown but it s bright.

I look scary.

There s that for you.

I didn t need to show you that,

but just to let you know

how much a contact can change the way you look.

I ll show you how different a black one, like the ones

that like I wear most of the time.

Two different lenses.

This one I look scary.

Look alive.

This is the first time anyone has ever seen me

put contacts in.

I have this.

[gentle upbeat music]

Eyeliner for me is a gamble.

There s days where I m like,

and it s good and there s days

where it s like I m like erasing it three times.

[gentle upbeat music]

Like I don t sing vocals

but I do put on music.

I ve been listening to some random

underground stuff like hip hop, hyper pop.

That or just like completely different

like Sade, Erykah Badu.

Me being a fan of somebody

for the first time was definitely Angelina Jolie.

I had this weird like obsession

with tough women fighting

and stuff like Tomb Raider was like,

that was a big inspiration for me.

And then for some reason something changed

and I got into High School Musical

and like all those Disney shows.

I started out very emo, which is like weird.

Oh yeah, Avril Lavigne was my first

musical artist that I was really like into.

I remember getting in trouble

for singing her lyrics at home.

Then I turned into something completely different

and I was like a huge fan of like Ariana Grande

and High School Musical,

like I wanted to marry Zac Efron.

The most important thing for me

with makeup is like no matter what look you do,

like what color, whatever,

it has to be symmetrical.

If like the brows, one s like an eyeliner,

if it s like this, like I can t.

Even when I don t do eyeliner

or much makeup like actual no makeup, makeup

where it s just like I just do eyebrows

and lip gloss, I curl my lashes.

[gentle upbeat music]

I used to buy all the mascara that was like in

during the time, but I never really

understood like what was good and what wasn t.

I just, right now what I choose is

like the smallest one that I can carry.

[gentle upbeat music]

This is EITHER Concealer.

[gentle upbeat music]

In Aespa,

I am the main rapper.

[laughs]

When I was going to Korea to do like K-pop,

I already was like, Okay, I m going

to be the main rapper kinda.

First of all, I had no experience in dance

and I do love singing

but I just was more resonating towards rap.

When I got into SM they gave us Next Level

like the demo for Next Level and they re like,

Okay, whoever can rap this the best,

like you re gonna debut.

All the trainees were like, Oh my god,

like how are we gonna do this.

Blah blah blah.

And obviously I was one of them

and it was like a good turning point I guess

in my trainee days.

This blush EITHER&,

this one is good cause it s cream.

[gentle upbeat music]

I use this for concealing scars

cause I have like a scar on my leg as well

and a scar on my face obviously.

Any other concealer, they re all good.

But this one,

it just has a different texture to it.

I don t know.

I got it off of like Korean Amazon.

Coupung is like the name.

Blush again on top of that.

Mm, okay, whatever I tried.

Now it s time for powder.

Laura Mercier Translucent Powder.

I usually use this brush for powder,

but I ve been like

into like this powder these days.

[gentle upbeat music]

Bronzer.

[gentle upbeat music]

This is a little more contour.

My hair has gone through a lot

so obviously this is not my real hair.

My hair s like this short.

There s me like me wanting to do this

and then there s like idol me, you know,

where it s like I m an idol as well

and like my fans also wanna see like

more different types of hair.

I did pink.

Everyone really liked it.

It was a good decision.

I do miss the pink pink.

I would recommend if you re gonna dye your hair

like a color, like blue, purple, whatever,

I would recommend pink

because you don t get sick of it.

I don t know about blue though.

I ve never tried it,

but that is one color that I really do wanna try.

I use this every day.

It s like almost gone.

Maybe, I think this might be better.

This is just a brush

so that it doesn t look clumpy.

And to top that off,

I will use this Fenty Treatz Hydrating lip oil.

[gentle upbeat music]

This is my makeup for my day off.

I don t know.

[speaking in foreign language]

Bye bye.
