Thank you for consistently following my previous skincare recommendation series 🙂 This time, I'd like to change the mood a bit and organize some makeup products that I frequently use and can be easily purchased at Olive Young.

I'll be focusing on products that are easy to use daily without much fuss, so they might be good for those who are new to Korean makeup. Rather than super glamorous products, these are mostly items that help you look naturally pretty haha.

Now, let's briefly introduce them one by one!

1. Naming Layered Fit Cushion

My skin type is dry, and I don't usually wear heavy makeup, so there are many days when I simply finish my base with just a cushion. The Naming Cushion is widely known as a cushion for oily/combination skin, but even for my dry skin, it adheres well without flaking, so I'm surprisingly more satisfied with it.

I especially liked how beautifully it expresses the skin. Based on my preferred ivory tone, my skin looks naturally brighter with a subtle glow, giving an overall impression of good skin condition.

Even when applied directly over sunscreen, it doesn't look overly thick; it goes on very naturally while subtly covering blemishes, making it great for daily use.

It's a cushion I often reach for, especially on days when I just want to lightly even out my skin tone 🙂

2. Laka Fruity Glam Tint

Laka tint is quite famous as a vegan tint, but personally, I keep using it because of the "gloss + longevity" combination.

My lips tend to be dry and have wrinkles, so I don't use matte lip products much. I prefer dewy tints or glosses with a shine. What I liked most about this product is that it has a glossy sheen like a gloss but also leaves a tint-like stain, so you get both longevity. That's why I've lost count of how many tubes I've used haha.

It comes in a wide variety of colors, and I wanted to try many, but I've settled on color 114 Harmony and keep using it. My natural lip color is a bit strong, so very light colors don't suit me well, but Harmony is moderately reddish with a hint of orange, which gives vitality to my warm skin tone and looks naturally good on me.

These days, mini sizes are also available, so for those who want to test it before buying the full size or want to try several colors lightly, the mini might be a good option. I also bought a mini in Salty color and alternate between them; this color also gets a lot of use, and I'm quite satisfied with it 🙂

3. Etude Bare Edge Slim Brow

Product Link -> Link

I've always preferred thin-tipped eyebrow pencils over thick ones. This product isn't just a thin round lead; it's a 3D hexagonal slim lead, which makes it especially good for drawing delicate lines like the tail of the eyebrow. It's easy to define the ends clearly, making the overall eyebrow look much neater.

Also, when using eyebrow products, sometimes the color doesn't show up well, perhaps due to oil on the brows. In such cases, you end up layering it multiple times, which feels like unnecessary irritation to the skin. But with this product, the color comes out quite vividly with just one stroke, so I experienced less of that inconvenience.

It comes in 5 colors, making it easy to choose one that matches your hair color. Since I have dyed hair, I use the Light Brown color, and it blends in naturally. The fact that it has a brow pencil on one end and a spoolie brush on the other means I can do everything from tidying to filling in my brows with just this one item, which is convenient.

However, after continuous use, the cap feels a bit loose, which is a slight drawback. Nevertheless, because of its good color payoff and thin lead for detailed drawing, my overall satisfaction with this product is high 🙂

4. So Natural All Day Tight Makeup Setting Fixer

Product Link -> Link

I don't use this product every day, but I always make sure to use it on days when I have an important appointment or can't touch up my makeup frequently. If I spray it after finishing my makeup, it definitely feels like the longevity improves, which gives me peace of mind when I can't pay attention to my makeup all day.

Especially on days when I have to be out for a long time or when the weather is hot and my makeup might easily melt, I notice a difference. The spray power is quite good; it spreads evenly like a mist, so no water droplets form on my face, and it adheres thinly. So, it doesn't feel heavy when sprayed over makeup and finishes naturally, which I also liked.

It's not an everyday essential, but it's definitely a helpful product to have when needed, so I continue to use it consistently 🙂

5. Cosnori Eyelash Serum Vegan Eyelash Enhancer

Product Link -> Link

I don't usually wear heavy makeup, but since my eyelashes are completely straight, using an eyelash curler makes my eyes look much more defined and pretty. So, I get a lash perm periodically, about once every two months.

Lash perms are convenient because the curl stays nicely without needing a curler, but afterwards, my eyelashes definitely feel a bit dry, so it's recommended to use an eyelash serum.

That's why I started using the Cosnori Eyelash Vegan Serum. This product comes in two types: clear and black. I use the black color because I want my eyelashes to look a bit more defined.

When applied, it gives a subtle mascara-like effect, making my eyelashes look more defined, so even on days when I wear almost no makeup, just applying this makes my eyes look much tidier. And best of all, even though it's black, there's almost no smudging, making it suitable for daily use without worry.

It allows me to care for my eyelashes while also achieving natural definition, so I think it would be especially suitable for those who get lash perms frequently, like me 🙂

Conclusion

So, this time I've briefly organized 5 makeup products you can buy at Olive Young. How was it? 🙂

Overall, I introduced products that I actually use frequently. You can think of them as items that are easy to use daily without much fuss and that I often reach for, rather than glamorous products. Since I only choose to introduce products that I've personally tried and found good, I hope it will be even more helpful for those who have a similar makeup style to mine.
