How To Be An Ulzzang ;)

HI HI HI! Erika here again~ 

This chapter (another chapter of utter bullsshiz) is about how to be an ULZZANG! ^^;; This sentence can divide your thoughts into two places: 

1. WTF IS AN ULZZANG

2. OMONA! FR?!

If you're prob no.1 staring at the screen like 'wtf is this cray gurl on about' then I shall explain what an 'Ulzzang' means "best face" in Korean, but the term has expanded in popular culture to refer to a subtle South Korean style. Originally used to refer to the large eyes, small lips, high nose bridges, and pale milky complexion of Korean fashion models, ulzzang status became popular in the wake of Cyworld picture contests, in which voters would select among the most stylish photographs submitted. If you want to cultivate this style, you can learn the eye, hair, and clothes basics and how to get your fresh new ulzzang style online. There is also another word for Ulzzang, that can also be Minyu- for girls minam- for boys or even Kingka. I have a photo there to show you waht an ulzzang is. 

Since now you know what a damning Ulzzang is lets all try n be an ulzzang!!! {◕ ◡ ◕}

LOL! I know its quite a lot but if you want to be an ulzzang... then its a must! *^* ♥

Step 1: Get circle lenses after asking your parents for permission. These will give off the illusion of large eyes, even if you have small eyes. If you’ve ever wondered why Korean people have such cute, large eyes, they probably wear circle lenses. I've never tried this personally and I'm dying to get circle lenses lol. My parents won't allow me -,-

Step 2: Wear cute clothes. Girls often wear graphic tees and slightly oversized sweaters with sneakers. Boys usually wear skinnies with fitted graphic tees, or sweaters with sneakers. Add glasses if you want. And add accessories to upgrade your look~

Step 3: Do eyeliner and apply mascara to the tip of your eyelashes. Pick a color that matches a small color of your outfit for eyeshadow. Wear lip-gloss. (It has several variants. You can create your own ulzzang makeup! Mix Mix Mix :3 ♥)

Step 4: Get the correct hairstyle. This will help you get the look, for hair is one of the other places besides the face that eyes will normally be attracted to

Boys: Have a layered short (not too short) cut with side-swept bangs.

Girls: Have straight bangs, or side-swept bangs with either straight or loosely curled hair. It doesn’t matter what length your hair is.

Color: Any color is fine, get one that suits you. At the moment my hair is a bit redish-purplish (if those are words) but I might just change it into black or brown again ^^;;

 Step 5: Get a cellphone with a camera to take pictures. You could also just a camera to take pictures with. ^O^ But I never take selfies since... I don't like them..? If you don't wanna you don't need to.

TIPS!

♥ Get circle lenses that look best in your skin color. Mostly, black, brown, and gray look good in any skin tone.

♥ Do not photoshop pictures heavily, if possible, avoid it.

♥ Stay away from any circle lense that says “Hypercircle” or “Hyperlens”. These will give you the scary alien eye look.

♥ Practice practice practice with makeup and looks. Look online, blogs, magazine scans, and other ulzzang girls for ideas.

♥ Be wary of fake circle lenses. These are dangerous and can hurt your eyes, make sure where you purchased them has authentic ones. GEO brand lenses carry a verification code you can put online to verify. Honeycolor.com has good priced authentic lenses.

♥ Take care of your lenses to avoid infection or possible blindness. Follow the directions on the package when caring for them.

♥ Do not wear them for more than 5 hours, especially if it is your first time. The amount of time varies on each person, it is usually suggested to wear them for a few hours, then add 2 hours each day to adjust.
