Jisoo needs no introduction. She is, after all, a member of Blackpink, one of South Korea’s biggest girl groups at the moment. Before Blackpink pushed her fame to new heights, Jisoo had already found success as a model and had starred in various productions including music videos and TV appearances. But more recently, the star also launched her very own YouTube channel, which has amassed more than 800,000 subscribers within the first six hours, with her first video garnering more than 1.7 million views in the same amount of time.
But that’s not all. Recognised as the “visual” of Blackpink, Jisoo’s looks and popularity have also made her a commercial tour de force. Take, for instance, when Italian luxury label Dior named Jisoo as its global ambassador for fashion and beauty in 2020.
With that being said, in celebration of Jisoo’s 28th birthday on January 3, let’s take a look and learn how the Korean superstar achieves her ethereal beauty looks.
Tired of making regular trips to the salon? Well, you might want to take a cue from Jisoo herself and go back to black. Not only is it easy to maintain but doing so will also breathe some life to your tresses.
Ever wondered what’s the secret behind Jisoo’s covetable pink and juicy pout? Well, it’s no secret that she’s Dior’s Global ambassador of Fashion and Beauty, so it comes as no surprise that she swears by the Addict Lip Glow Lip Balm.
Available in a wide range of shades, the Addict Lip Glow Lip Balm is easily one of many celeb favourites (including Jisoo). Suitable for all skin tones, the lip balm helps to revive the natural colour of lips with a custom glow for 6 hours, while also hydrating the lips for 24 hours.
We love the freedom that comes without wearing our masks, and if you’re like Jisoo and you dig a glossy number every once in awhile, then you should definitely try the Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss from Dior Beauty.
An important detail of her signature clean makeup, Jisoo opts for a perfected base that veers on the side of having a natural finish that isn’t too dewy or matte.
This lightweight gel serum primer contains watermelon and hyaluronic acid to give any skin type a boost of hydration to help makeup last longer and look better. Niacinamide is also present to combat hyperpigmentation and dullness.
Jisoo doesn’t really use bronzer or contour to enliven her complexion or sculpt her face. Instead, she uses a soft wash of peachy pink blush to add a healthy flush and accentuate her cherubic cheeks.
Mac Cosmetics’ Melba blush is a cult favourite , due to its flattering warm-toned peachy pink hue. Fun fact, this blush is also loved by fellow Blackpink member Lisa.
True to Korean beauty standards, Jisoo also favours soft, smoky eye makeup that hugs and frames the eyes. The key to nailing this look is to use light colours that are slightly deeper than your skin tone and to keep the application close to the perimeter of the eye.
If you didn’t know, Jung Saem Mool is a celebrated Korean makeup artist who spearheaded many of the beauty trends we know and love today. There are four colour variations to this eyeshadow palette, but we especially love this Bloom & Petal iteration as it contains a mix of pinks and peaches that are the colours the Koreans (including Jisoo) favour most.
Jisoo knows how glamorous a blue-toned red lipstick can be. The lip colour not only brightens up any complexion, but it is also the perfect colour for anything from a casual romantic date to a dressy Chinese New Year ensemble.
Besides a red lip, Jisoo has a penchant for pinky nude lippies.
The colour that Jisoo is wearing is Dior’s lipstick in the classic #999 shade. The shade is so popular that is available in four different finishes – velvet, matte, satin, and metallic – to suit different occasions and makeup looks.
Jisoo can be considered as a poster child for curtain bangs. She does however change it up slightly by going between having shorter, wispy fringe (such as the one pictured) to growing it out and having them frame her face.
Use these self-adhesive curlers for a heatless way to style your bangs. These have a textured surface that grips the hairs. You can to sleep them to bed and wake up with beautifully coiffed fringe that doesn’t require any heated hairstyling tools.
