I love Korean makeup, and I love Asian makeup in general. I'm Indonesian and the ladies there do a similar type of makeup where it just looks youthful and innocent. It seems like contouring is not popular around there, and personally they look beautiful the way they do makeup. If you like it and want to do it, you should!

I agree with Alex. There is no way that I could pull it off though I do find the look beautiful.

I absolutely love the korean look though I definitely had to tweak it a bit to suit my Eyelid shape. The look you posted is actually not what you'd see korean girls on the streets sporting all the time. That's more of an ulzzang look with the heavier eye makeup/gradient lip etc.
whenever I visit korea which is like every year (haha! I have family there that's why) I notice that in general:

1. dewy or at the very least radiant skin is #1 priority
2. Blush is kept to a minimum
3. no bronzer or contour (or extremely light)
4. minimal eye makeup such as wash of shimmery color on lid with thin liner that wings out a bit. some girls don't even curl their lashes for mascara.
5. Bright lip! either gradient style or regular
6. and of course a straighter brow though if you have a natural arch don't force it to be straight.

I'm asian but I don't like the way chinese/korean do their makeup. Its just I'm not a big fan of their makeups or products. To me they are just good n famous for their skincare products.

I've always loved it! I love how naturally cute and pretty it looks, and how minimal and feminine it is! :)

Personally, I love Korean/Asian inspired makeup, though I definitely do have to agree with Melanie :) Unfortunately since I have tan skin and am not Asian, I cannot for the life of me pull of this type of look lol.
