Korean-style makeup vs popular Chinese makeup looks: what's the real difference?
Chinese makeup brands have grown fast, and people often compare 'Korean-style makeup' with looks popular in China. The differences people usually mention (broad trends only; personal style varies a lot):
Base
- Korean style: dewy, sheer, skin texture showing through
- Popular in China: matte, polished, higher-coverage bases are also big
Brows and eyes
- Korean style: natural straight brows, low-saturation shadow, focus on aegyo-sal and the outer corner
- Popular in China: more layered eye looks, bolder with colour and glitter
Lips
- Korean style: gradient lips, glossy tints
- Popular in China: defined lip shape and matte textures are common too
In common
- Both lean more and more towards what suits you rather than copying one style
- Plenty of people mix: Korean base + Chinese-brand eyeshadow
Which way do you lean, or do you already mix them?
