LE SSERAFIM’s HUH YUNJIN on Her Skin Care Routine & Eyelash Curling Trick

Hi Vogue, it's Eugene from Le Seraphim, and today I'm gonna walk you through my everyday skincare routine. And I have a pretty chill day in LA, so we're gonna do my makeup. First, I'm going to wash my face. But before that, I like to use these claw clips. And then, squeak a little on there, like that much. I put some water on my Foreo, and I'm going in. My mom actually bought this for me from Marshall's, and then she was like, do you need this? I'll ship it to you. Since we don't have Foreos in Korea. My parents are still living in Albany. I moved to Korea when I started training to become a K-pop idol in 2018, 2017, so I was like 15, 16. This next step is toner pad. I remember first opening up to my parents, being like, I wanna make music. And they sat me down very seriously, like this is a really tough industry, and it might be hard to make it in this industry. The first step to become an idol, I guess, is to pass an audition. There were a couple times that companies came over from Korea to the States for global auditions, and they would drive me on the weekends every time there was an opportunity. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have been here today. The ordinary serum. Next, I'm going in with the serumizer. To de-puff and kind of like get my blood circulation going, I like to use this very funny-looking Kuaishou. And then you just kind of like circle it around. I think I really started focusing on skincare after I moved to Korea. There's just like a lot of access to these products. It got really fun to make a routine. I have this cream that I like to use. And then the last step is this cream. I actually like to buy makeup from the States. The makeup in Korea and the skincare in Korea is very different, so it's fun to like get stuff from both the East and the West, and then use both of it in my routine. Lip balm. So the other day, I went walking around Hollywood with Chaewon, and I did this kind of look. Sun-kissed, very minimal kind of look. I'm gonna go in with this MAC primer that also has SPF. Next, I go in with this Blemish Balm. Squeeze a little bit, like literally the tiniest bit. Melissa Erfem performed at Coachella, which was absolutely surreal. Our outfits were custom made by Louis Vuitton. Much love to LV. We had such a fun time. I'm gonna go in with this MAC foundation. Very minimal. Out of the five of us, I think I like am the most like into like doing my own makeup. Most of the days when we're like not doing full glam, the other girls, they go like very minimal. Zaha is actually like also into makeup. She is always like pulling up with like these eyeshadow looks, very minimal though. She's always killing it. And next, I'm gonna do concealer. The biggest difference between Korean makeup and American makeup, I think, is in the base. Like for Korean makeup, I think it's really typical to go for like a really dewy finish, really minimal kind of base. Whereas for American makeup, it's a lot more matte and a lot more full on. When I was in high school, I was like a lot more into like contouring. After like, you know, moving to Korea and doing a lot of Korean makeup, I've noticed there's not as much sculpting going on. So it's a lot more minimal. Then this is Anastasia Beverly Hills. Everything we do is a team effort. Like when we go to Japan, we have two Japanese members. They help us out with like a lot of the talking and they always like teach us Japanese phrases as well. Yeah, when we're in the States, I'm just like doing my part of the team effort. Next is eyeshadow. First, I'm gonna go in with this art. They're a peachy. It's like a cream eyeshadow. So just go in with my finger. And then I'm gonna go in with like a little, it's like a pinkish nude. I'm probably the biggest yapper in the Seraphim. I'm not gonna lie. We're all very like introverted people. Okay, Korea's also really obsessed with MBTI. In the States, it's like horoscopes and zodiacs, like what's your sign? In Korea, it's like, what's your MBTI? It's like your personality type. We just like to categorize ourselves. All five of us are I's, which means we're all like, we get energy from like alone time rather than going out and like meeting a lot of people. Next is eyeliner. And then I like to kind of like blend it out with my nail. One of my recent musical collaborations was with an artist called Max. It's a song called Stupid in Love. And it went like viral on TikTok. It was like something so unexpected. It was like one of those moments. I kind of made it, mom. When you're a trainee, you have to train before you become like an idol. Every month you have an evaluation where you get in front of like a camera. You have to look good. So I will do my makeup. And that's when I picked up this skill where you use your curler. You normally just do your upper lashes. You flip it upside down. And then you also kind of do your lower lashes and kind of get it to fan out a little. That's just how I do my eyes now. For my lashes, I like to also kind of like go in like this. And then I go in vertically and kind of like pinch them together. On like the edge of my lashes, I like to like push them down a little and then like fan it out. So it kind of gives the illusion of like a wing. Next, I have my blush. Makeup looks without blush. I don't know. I just, I just. It's funny. I don't know if there's like a direct accurate translation, but it just means you feel like something's missing. Aw, doing makeup is so therapeutic. It like brings me back to like my high school days. And I would do so many like extracurricular things. I would always like get up like an hour or two earlier to go like play field hockey. I used to be in orchestra as well. This is something that actually I don't think I've ever talked about. I used to play violin. I played violin for quite a long time. Next is my lip liner. Oh my God. I remember before going to Korea, there was a time where I was like training in Korea for a couple of years. And then I left to go back to school for like a year. And I was like, I'm done with K-pop. I'm going to like choose a different career path. But then I got a call back being like, hey, do you want to be in a group called Le Seraphin? And I was like, whoa, wait. I actually might want to do K-pop again. Before I left to like join Le Seraphin, the last thing I bought in the States, it was a lip liner from MAC. I like to overline the corners of my lips a little bit. I like to use my finger. Like blend it in. I'm going to go in with a nude-ish color. Oh, isn't this so cute? This has my name on it. It says Yoonjin. Go in with like a little gloss. Think I'm going to want to do some more blush. I am a blush girl. A highlighter, Cheryl Tilbury. Okay, so I dot my little mole here. And then I like to use two different fragrances. I really like the smell of figs. Just put some right back. And then just a layer of this as well. It's like a really weird combination, figs and pistachio. But I don't know, it brings me peace. Very like sun-kissed, very natural. Honestly, I think it's perfect for the day. All right, bye mom. Love you.
