MinsookyI Tried an Edwardian White Face Powder RecipeMinsooky • The History of Beauty2021-02-02 | In the pursuit of finding more sustainable makeup, I decided to try an Edwardian White Face Powder recipe from 1902. What could...possibly go wrong here? 👀
This recipe is taken from Harriet Hubbard Ayer's book (yes, it's literally called that) from 1902, which contains a plethora of recipes and beauty guidelines from the Edwardian/late Victorian era. Notably, this is one of the few recipes from that book that doesn't seem...like it could kill me. Well anyways, here's how I made this white face powder and how it worked out with natural makeup and shironuri makeup!

Well...this was quite the adventure! A week ago I tried following a 1905 makeup tutorial for men, taken from a theatrical makeup book. Guess this counts as Edwardian makeup? It was pretty strange but I discovered some odd makeup tips in the process. Watch until the very end to see how it turned out!

Today's video is a Shironuri transformation into a look from Thierry Mugler's 1995 Fall/Winter runway fashion show. This is a shironuri makeup transformation I've wanted to do for years now! The real challenge is how to imitate vintage 1995 Mugler without actually paying that much for it...so here's how I did it.

Hey everyone, happy Halloween! In today's video I'm attempting to make my Halloween costume this year zero waste, by creating a dark academia themed bunny shironuri look 🐰 Wow that was a mouthful to say. But here's how I tried to make it as zero waste (or sustainable) as possible.
This is a relaunch of my infamous (is it? idk) shironuri 白塗り series which I started in 2016. Now I'm restarting it in a new format, focusing on every part of the process - from the makeup, to sourcing the outfit, plus other stuff I make to complement the costume. I'll also go into any difficulties or discoveries I make along the way. Can't wait to show you what I've been up to! ___________________________ Hi there!

Called pinturas negras (black paintings), the importance of Goya's Black Paintings are relevant to artists and non-artists alike, as I'll explain in this video essay. It also includes a shironuri makeup look inspired by Goya.

In this makeup transformation/video essay mish mash, I'm discussing the real meaning of the inverted cross, or the upside down cross. As I've received an influx of comments from Christians and non-Christians alike that I use "evil" symbols in my makeup work, I thought this would be a good opportunity to talk about the origins of the inverted cross and its true meaning - as the cross of Saint Peter.

In this video I'm discussing the symbolism in The Handmaid's Tale, how it ties in with religion and gender roles, and how I used those elements to create this shironuri makeup look.
Of course, important caveat: These are my own personal opinions about the book. This has also nothing to do with the Handmaid's Tale TV series, as I've never seen a single episode (I've only read the book).

In hopes of having my work accepted in an art magazine, I created my latest shironuri makeup transformation, called Annabel Lee, after Edgar Allan's poem of the same name. The goal was to express what I felt in the poem - sadness, longing, and the free-flowing nature of water - into a cohesive makeup look. I hope to have an additional 3-4 looks created before I submit them all for consideration. Fingers crossed it works out!

No inspiration for this although my trip to Washington last year helped me a lot. I wanted to use lipsticks from Anastasia Beverly Hills to add depth to my white foundation. Layering white foundation on top of this allows me to paint precisely what I want without relying too much on powder products, which I've been avoiding lately because my skin is really dry and irritated.
All ABH products featured in this video were sent as PR from the company; I'm looking forward to creating more makeup looks with the products I received, plus offer my thoughts on them!

as i mentioned earlier in this vlog, i intended to go out west to launch a new shironuri series, where i create a look based on my experiences and observations traveling somewhere new. i'd love to go to more faraway places in the future, but in the meanwhile i traveled to washington and yellowstone on the cheap by mostly camping, buying no souvenirs, and keeping eating out to a minimum. or at least i tried not to eat out as much...also i need to go on a diet for the next 7 years after how much i ate. good grief.
anyways, this isn't my only destination this year. i plan on going to the east coast in december...wonder where i could be going?

for this challenge i decided to choose designs, colors, or other symbols to represent each major part of my 23andme DNA. the black and white scheme was no accident. i chose it because i have dna from asia and europe.
it took me around 3 weeks to paint all of the beads for this makeup challenge. each bead has a specific meaning, featuring paintings that are correlated with a certain part of my 23andme ancestry.
i also was selective about what i chose to include. i did not include any ancestry dna that was too vague for instance, like broadly northern asian and native american, since it's impossible to choose a symbol to accurately represent it. that's also why i didn't include anything regarding the western asian and northern african dna i have.
hope you enjoyed this shironuri makeup project of mine - that eye makeup really challenged me!

Here's a quick makeup tutorial on how to look half Korean...
i chose this specific makeup look because it's the sort of makeup i've been into lately. a little bit gothy, with an eye look that flatters my eyes the best. i drew on the crosses because i wanted to draw something intricate on my face.
also i hope this video helped you learn a little bit more about the history of half koreans...remember, every culture and ethnicity has a distinct background, and it's not just about looks. and be careful when it comes to stereotyping a certain race or ethnicity's looks or experiences, because it usually isn't an accurate representation.
there are a few links i can recommend if you want to learn more about what i discuss in this video.

this is green shironuri makeup 白塗り メイク i created on the spot, which i ended up not liking and wanted to scrap, but i decided to save the footage so i could still show you the process, and talk about some things which i feel like are important moving forward. i wanted this shironuri makeup look to have muted forest colors. i think i screwed up by not keeping the lips black and white, it just made the makeup seem too cluttered and disorganized. i think i could've added more contrast with the eyes as well. oh well, live and learn.

for the record, no, this channel isn't going to be shut down or anything. i'm just going to change how i approach it. in the past i've felt pressured to put out a video every week, when in reality it's unrealistic for people like me, who tend to put in a lot of hours into one single video (it can take me anywhere from 12 to 24 hrs), to produce this much content. so i'm going to focus on making my best content ever, without feeling the pressure to constantly put out stuff.
i will post content related to the videos i post on THIS channel on my ASMR channel. it will cover what i do behind the scenes, my other interests and passions, and be generally very chill. i have a great appreciation for ASMR and it's something i've wanted to do for a while, but was afraid to.
for example...right now i'm doing a series where i carefully repair an old face cast to prepare it for several masks i want to make. the masks will be featured in makeup looks on this channel. so that's how both channels will relate to each other.
if you don't like asmr, of course, i wouldn't recommend subscribing. you probably won't like these videos. otherwise, here's my channel listed below:

my color was red...so of course i had to draw inspiration from bram stoker's dracula...and michael hussar! PLEASE make sure to check out everyone else in this collaboration, they are creative powerhouses and i'm so honored to be in this collab with them ^_^
this is another addition to my #minspooky series, gotta ramp these up as halloween nears eh? can't resist the dark side :3 i specifically took inspiration for the eye makeup from michael hussar's medusa painting. i would link it here but i don't think i'm allowed to due to the subject matter, but it's up on his instagram. that's also why there are a few snakes in my hair, and why i added tears.
from there i made my own interpretation of a vampire, drawing inspiration from bram stoker's dracula, which i watched a few weeks ago. i loved all of the costume designs, and secretly wish i could look like gary oldman in that movie. unfortunately that is the extent of how much i enjoyed the movie because keanu reeves' acting literally ruined it for me lol. what's your favorite vampire movie?

WHICH COLOR DO YOU WANT TO SEE NEXT? let me know in the comment section below 💙
→ kryolan TV paint stick 070 → ben nye super white professional powder → NYX Ultimate Shadow Palette (Cool Neutrals) → LORAC 2 Pro Palette (Navy eyeshadow) → EYEKO Lash Alert mascara → Duo eyelash adhesive → SUGARPILL & ROUGE AND ROGUE false lashes (stacked) → NYX Vivid Brights Eyeliner (Sapphire) → SUGARPILL Candy Crush eyeshadow → Rhinestones from Michaels and Etsy → Spirit Gum → SUGARPILL Shiver Liquid Lipstick
and yes i know the thumbnail is a bit different from the end result. i took pictures with and without the big pearl embellishments and ended up preferring the latter. i would recommend if you ever attempt doing this to skip the embellishments because i think it makes the actual makeup look seem too "busy."
this shironuri blue makeup look was completely improvised. i had an idea in my head and just went with it. i ended up having to change plans because the embellishments really did not go well with this makeup look in my opinion. for guidance, i referenced isshehungry, who is a VERY talented drag artist and also did bjork's makeup for her utopia album (i got a couple of comments wondering if this was inspired by bjork).

for this full face makeup challenge i wanted to do a shironuri makeup look inspired by where i live! so i covered my entire face in ferns and flowers naturally...i must admit i rarely wear green makeup in my day-to-day life, and i honestly don't like it much as a color. but i think the eye makeup especially was quite pretty, and work well as as a regular (non-shironuri) makeup look. now i could've opted to keep this simple but you know me, right. i like to experiment :3

there have been several youtubers that have done similar videos prior to this - including linda hallberg, heather moorhouse, nikkietutorials and sherliza moe. i decided i wanted to attempt this shironuri style, so this is why my face is painted white. i hope to really challenge myself, and figure out new ways to create a makeup look with such a limited color palette. hopefully it inspires you or encourages you to get out of your comfort zone too!

a lot of you loved the makeup look i created using the ABH subculture palette last month, so i'm back to challenge myself again...but this time committing to using all of the eyeshadows. if you're in a makeup rut, i encourage you to try this as it's a really good way to test your ability to work with a limited selection of eyeshadows...it's really a good way to test your creative potential.
i actually experimented 4 times with this palette. the 4th attempt is what you're seeing now. the previous 3 attempts were a disaster, but i wasn't about to quit...
for inspiration, i used a few bob ross painting techniques, specifically the way he paints clouds. i used to follow his videos to help me with oil painting, and i do acrylic landscape paintings too. i decided to translate those techniques to face painting, and to help me create a very unique look. however i didn't actually use them to paint clouds. always keep your mind open to new ideas anywhere, you never know what you can use as makeup techniques...at least that's how i feel.
as for how i feel about juvia's place festival palette, i don't feel like i've used it enough to give a good review on it. and i don't do first impressions on this channel because i think first impressions aren't helpful at all and can misrepresent how a product performs. with that said, i notice that the pans are pretty close to being the same size as sugarpill pans, and i think the shadows are pretty reminiscent of sugarpill. in fact i feel izafa is a near dupe of love+. i think perhaps i should purchase more palettes and maybe do a review comparing both brands in the future...hmm hmm.
anyways, i hope you enjoyed - i will be unveiling a new makeup project soon! been pretty busy!

i am way too used to doing shironuri or korean style makeup i think, but i did learn a lot from this challenge. i think one of the biggest mistakes you can do while learning makeup is sticking too much in your comfort zone - which i admittedly do. always try new makeup techniques and styles, you never know what you can learn :3
judging on the comments i received after posting my previous "i tried following a ______ makeup tutorial", most of you wanted to see me take on an itslikelymakeup makeup tutorial. there were also a lot of votes for nikkietutorials but some of you commented that too many people were using her as their challenge. so i chose itslikelymakeup. i chose one where i had more of the same makeup products.

But you know me, I wanted to follow a tutorial that wasn't from a mainstream beauty guru. So I tried following a Sherliza Moe makeup tutorial which was a pretty fun challenge considering most of her videos (including this) aren't narrated and sped up, so I have to figure out what she's doing in each step.
I also tried to make it a shironuri look! I thought it would look really good as a shironuri makeup look...
if you like my videos for its ~*aesthetic*~ i recommend checking out sherliza moe, very cool, aesthetic chill experience - you'll probably enjoy it :3
i believe the person who popularized this challenge was thomas halbert! you can see his challenge video here: youtu.be/eDxqbU-guS0
thank you all for watching! normally i don't do challenge videos because they don't interest me, but this really piqued my interest because i only learned how to do makeup by watching youtube videos...should i do more? whose tutorial should i try to follow? hmm hmm

i've never seen anyone do an actual theatrical/creative look with this palette, so i'm continuing to experiment with it to see how it performs.
for anyone unfamiliar with shironuri, the main requirement is that your face must be painted white. other than that, you are free to wear whatever makeup look you desire, complemented by accessories and outfits. my shironuri style is employing artistic elements in my makeup so that i resemble a painting. i also love natural elements, so for this ABH subculture makeup look, i tried to draw a nature scene on my face.
this makeup look was 100% improvised. there was really no inspiration for this aside from some paintings i've done of flowers in the past. i did a layering technique which i usually do when i paint, but in this video i did it with just eyeshadows. pretty fun to do but also very time consuming...this took me 8 hours to complete! whew i felt like i was going to pass out at the end lol
also my apologies if i'm not going super in depth about everything i'm doing here. i don't have enough memory cards to record 8 straight hours of filming so i recorded what i thought were the most important steps.

(recreation of lalasdreambox)Minsooky • The History of Beauty2018-01-27 | hullo everyone ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ today's video is a mermaid makeup transformation! i mostly used eyeshadows from the anastasia beverly hills SUBCULTURE palette for this...yup you heard that right...you'll see much more from this palette soon on my channel.
i created this mermaid makeup look for a contest being held by her...I would die if i won but idk if my chances are too good. fingers crossed tho!
the headpiece is made out of cardstock, which i painted with watered down acrylic paints. i posted the entire process of how i made it (with pictures) on my patreon page, so if you're curious about it, you can find out there ^_^
if you like my work, you can support my work in many ways. doing so allows us independent creators to continue to create bigger, better content - in a way that positively contributes to youtube.

・ m a k e u p ・
for this shironuri makeup look, i basically recreated the art from lalasdreambox's MARS artwork onto my face. for the fake eye, i experimented here and used an eye made out of cardstock and acrylic paint.
the biggest reason for this is because i'm nearsighted and there's no way i could record that on camera. i would have my mirror a millimeter away from my face and it would block my face the entire time lol. but this turned out to be a successful experiment as i think it works pretty well, and is a good alternative for people who may struggle with creating detailed face painting or makeup on their face.
as you can see, most of the transformation was reliant on the headpiece. it was fun to make! i oughta make more headpieces like this ^_^
hope you enjoyed this shironuri mermaid makeup transformation inspired by lalasdreambox!

(makeup only)Minsooky • The History of Beauty2018-01-10 | heyo everyone ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ in this video i'm turning myself into a bao pham painting...only using makeup! i love bao pham's art so much so i couldn't resist. for more info please read below!
this video actually took 2 weeks to record, thanks to the intro i filmed. filming the intro took 3 days; editing another day. i also took a few weeks embroidering a chest piece by hand. the actual shironuri makeup portion of this look didn't take me long to do, and i think the makeup tutorial overall is pretty simple. i encourage you to try it out :)
i could not get any flowers to stay in my hair so i decided to draw plant shapes around my eyes instead. and i drew my lips on with no cupid's show since in many bao pham's paintings, the women's lips tend to look like that.
anyhoo i hope you enjoyed this makeup tutorial and hope you all are doing well. there are more artistic makeup looks to come...one that was actually requested, hmm hmm wonder what it'll be.

hullo everyone ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ by popular request...here's how i make these false eyelashes you've seen in many of my shironuri tutorials! i only use paper to make them and i'll show you step by step how to make these diy paper eyelashes, as well as 3 different styles - including the false lashes i wore in my dustin bailard makeup tutorial.
this tutorial is actually a patreon reward so thank you all for your support! i wanted to create patreon rewards that everyone could access once i reach a certain goal...so i'm releasing very long detailed tutorial videos designed so you can follow along while I do it, like a bob ross video. i will never put my videos behind any paywall, and i hope with your support i can release more videos like this in the future!
my next patreon goal is gaining 5 more patreon supporters, regardless of tier level. if we reach that, i will release a detailed video on youtube on how to achieve perfect white foundation...including skin prep, comparing different white foundations, tips for applying and setting, and common mistakes to avoid.
if you would like to help me reach my goal, my patreon is here: patreon.com/minsooky
if you can't though, it's perfectly okay - i also greatly appreciate any sort of support, such as liking my videos, commenting, or sharing my videos on social media, such as twitter and reddit. i hope in 2018 i can really increase the quality of my videos through your support ^_^
・ i t e m s ・
for this tutorial, here's what you'll need:
- a sheet of cardstock (any color, but I'm working with black and white here) - scissors - false eyelash glue - false eyelashes with a thick band (I prefer Eylure) - eyelash curler
if you have a latex allergy, obviously don't use eyelash glue containing latex.
these lashes can be used a few times, but keep in mind they are very fragile. after a few uses I remove the paper lashes, clean the false eyelashes, then reapply a new set of paper eyelashes.
there are a ton of ways to decorate these paper eyelashes, but make sure not to use any products that shouldn't be near your eyes. that includes sharpie markers, nail polish, craft glitter, etc. always play it safe ^_^
if you have any questions, please leave them down below. hope to see you soon!

So here's how I prep my skin for HEAVY makeup. A bit weird for some but my skin needs all the love it can get.
My thanks to TeamiBlends for sponsoring this video! Here I'm using their Green Tea Blend Detox Mask, which is a bentonite clay mask containing Matcha Green Tea and Lemongrass. I was a bit skeptical, but this mask goes on super smooth and sucks every bit of gunk out of your pores in less than 10 minutes...I really like it. Leaves my skin feeling very clean and soft, no blackheads or nastiness in sight. Plus it smells nice. Definitely an upgrade from the other clay face masks you'll find in your local supermarket.

Just some savings for you if you so desire to purchase it :3
- Tinkle Razors...you can find these online for really cheap. These are just basic straight shaving razors; very gentle on the skin. Exfoliation is really important even if you have dry skin, applying makeup on dry, flaky skin is number 1...pretty gross, but number 2, the makeup won't apply well. So this is the way I exfoliate before applying heavy makeup...give it a try if you feel like it. No it doesn't cause you to get hairier. Yes I did film myself shaving my face. Wow if my family watches this they're probably shaking their heads at me rn
- Masqueology Eye Gel patches. I received these from the company via Octoly a little awhile, and have been testing them out. Unfortunately I don't like these...sorry, but they work just the same as those cheap gold eye patches you can buy off Amazon. Adds a little bit of moisture, doesn't do much else. Supposedly it's supposed to firm up your undereye area but no, nyet, aniyo...plus it's a pain to use. My undereye area tends to be very dry and irritated so moisturizing them beforehand is a must. Still trying to find the best way undereye patches, but these will have to do for now.
- ReGen Aqua Bio Skingel Mask. My mom gave this to me after she returned from Korea, it's honestly one of the best moisturizing face masks I've ever tried. Downside is finding it. I don't know if it's discontinued or what, but I can't find it online. Very miffed by that! Obvs after exfoliating and applying a clay mask, your skin will be very dry, so it's important to add moisture back into it right away.
Also, as a disclaimer, I'm no skin expert, this is just how I prep my skin for heavy makeup. I naturally have dry skin so I focus a lot on skincare to ensure the makeup sits nicely on my face.
Anyways that's it for now...now there shall be an epic makeup look coming up later this week :3

(a 6 year makeup compilation video)Minsooky • The History of Beauty2017-12-09 | One of the most commonly asked questions I receive is how exactly I learned these makeup skills, or how people can learn in the same way I did. Well this video will reveal how I learned to do makeup. I've also made a short 6 year makeup compilation of the makeup looks I've done from 2011 to 2017...whew that was painful to sort through lol.
This video features the first ever makeup tutorial I recorded back in 2011 on another channel on a cheap webcam in my small apartment. Yikes that was painful to watch. At the time I had nothing but passion for makeup but lacked the skills...didn't know much about blending or anything else for that matter. But I kept on watching more Youtube tutorials, practiced over and over, experimented with new ideas, and kept at it over the years until I was able to really hone in on my makeup style.
I should also mention that I painted and sketched a lot when I was growing up, and used to do art as a job back when I was a teenager, so a lot of the time I simply translate those skills into my makeup. But there was still a very steep learning curve for me, as makeup and traditional art are very different.
anyways, i hope you enjoyed this little makeup compilation showing how my makeup skills have developed over the years...hope it motivates you to keep on pursuing your passion, regardless of what it is or how much you struggle with it.
And yes, many more videos and tutorials to come...I've got a look I've been working 3 weeks on to debut soon ;)

(makeup only)Minsooky • The History of Beauty2017-12-01 | hullo everyone ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ for today's video i'm turning myself into a tina yu sculpture (makeup only) because...reasons. i keep on trying to create more difficult challenges for myself and tackling on tina yu's juliet sculpture was something i've wanted to recreate for a LONG time. please read the info below as i'm going to detail what went into this makeup look and props!
also i'm doing a makeup series where i turn myself into my favorite artworks, so if you want to check that out, you can do so down below!
♡ KRYOLAN TV Paint Stick 070 ♡ BEN NYE Super White Professional Powder ♡ KAT VON D Swoon eyeshadow ♡ SUGARPILL Hotsy Totsy eyeshadow ♡ MAKEUP GEEK Aphrodite eyeshadow [PR] ♡ EYEKO Skinny Liquid Eyeliner [PR] ♡ MAKEUP GEEK Corrupt eyeshadow [PR] ♡ EYEKO Lush Lashes Mascara [PR] ♡ URBAN DECAY Vice Special FX Lip Topper (White Lies) ♡ SUGARPILL Ghosted loose eyeshadow [PR] ♡ EYLURE Grand Glamour false eyelashes ♡ ETUDE HOUSE Cookie Blusher no. 6 ♡ MAKEUP GEEK contour powder [PR] ♡ KAT VON D Hellbent lipstick ♡ KAT VON D Underage Red liquid lipstick ♡ SUGARPILL Kitten Parade eyeshadow ♡ KISS eyelash glue
[PR] means companies sent me these products for me to try out, however i am not obligated to use them in videos or leave positive remarks about them.
for this makeup look i turned myself into tina yu's juliet sculpture. she is an amazing artist and i've fallen in love with all of her sculptures...they're so so beautiful.
i chose juliet because i wanted to challenge myself by creating a bunny hood (this is basically a bunny makeup tutorial...for those who wanted me to make another one lol), as well as embroidering it with beads. of course, i've never embroidered before, but i was adamant i was going to do it and i better do it right...sometimes i'm a bit ridiculous with expectations but that's just how i am eh.
first i created a hood which covered my entire head except for my face. then, very painstakingly, i spent over 30 hours hand embroidering individual beads into the hood, and then onto the bunny ears i attached (which are made from felt). truly a labor of...uh, pain i guess. and indeed it was a big challenge. but i pushed through it and learned a lot of things along the way, the big one being that this hood makes my head the size of the moon, but also how much i love embroidery! i'm addicted now and i'm already working on two other pieces which are way better than this hood. this hood, unfortunately, was sloppily put together because i have little experience with sewing, but what i learned along the way was worth it.
the bunny makeup itself is pretty simple. a pink cut crease is a must. the sculpture also features rhinestones on both eyelids, but my eyes are sensitive, so that was a no go for me. instead, i applied iridescent shimmer, which really didn't show up well on camera.
hope you enjoyed my interpretation of a tina yu sculpture, this was fun to do :3 my next makeup look will be something even more intricate...as a little hint, it will be based off a certain artist who doesn't work with paint, instead it's the way she sings and expresses herself that captivates me...and maybe she is a Scorpio too like myself...;) Hmm wonder who

also this can be worn by women, men, and everyone in between :3 read below for more information and where to see more of my halloween makeup looks for 2017!
i've received a lot of requests lately for easier makeup looks because mine i guess are a bit complicated eh o_o; so for my last halloween makeup tutorial, i've created a simple vampire makeup look that involves basic makeup techniques, such as blending eyeshadow and applying eyeliner.
i'm also being more detailed than usual with my instructions, so i hope this is helpful to you :)
i also went with a more elegant refined vampire here since i like that type of vampire the best lol
for the lips, i made a small blood droplet with hot glue (i squirted some hot glue in the shape of a droplet onto a greased wax sheet, then allowed it to dry). afterwards i painted it with a red acrylic paint on the side that wasn't going to be adhered to my lip. drac_makens uses these hot glue pieces a lot in her eye makeups and i highly recommend checking out her stuff on IG if you like darker looks :3
ALSO since i'm probably going to get questions about this...i did not intentionally highlight the inner corners of my eyes and not show instructions for it. i couldn't get any white face paint to stay there so i had to pack on the face paint and powder really heavily there. it's not an intended part of the look and i don't actually like how it looks, so please ignore that. if you want to do it yourself you could try using a white liquid eyeliner, and layering it around the inner corners of your eyes.

if you enjoyed this video please consider sharing it on social media (twitter, reddit, etc) or leaving your thoughts down below. greatly appreciated ♡
since doing makeup recreations of agnes cecile and stephanie pui-mun law paintings, i've wanted to tackle a different shironuri makeup look that was darker and more halloween themed. so i decided to choose a painting by dustin bailard. i think the iphone photos i took actually better show off how, when i look down, the makeup actually makes my eyes look abnormally big, shrinking the face and more accurately portraying his art style.
i did a very dark halo smokey eye which i brought up all the way to my eyebrows to exaggerate the size of the eyes. the tips and techniques i discuss in this video show how you can do this makeup as well. to make it look more artistic i drew on the highlights.
and that's how i turned myself into this dustin bailard painting, perfect for halloween eh :3

hi everyone ʕ♡˙ᴥ˙♡ʔ for the next part of my #minspooky series i bring to you a fox halloween makeup tutorial, based on the mythology of 구미호 or gumiho. for more info on this halloween makeup look please read below!
if you enjoyed this video please consider sharing it on social media (twitter, reddit, etc) or leaving your thoughts down below. greatly appreciated ♡
for this entry into my halloween makeup 2017 series, i bring you a makeup look based on gumiho, or the nine-tailed fox.
you'll find mythology of nine-tailed foxes all throughout east asia. most people are probably familiar with kitsune, which is the japanese version of it. gumiho is the korean version however. i've wanted to do more shironuri makeup looks incorporating more of my culture so this is my 2nd attempt at doing a korean shironuri look so to speak :3
the basic mythology behind it is that when a fox lives for 1000 years, it transforms into a nine-tailed fox. it can also disguise itself as a beautiful woman, hiding its true form. depending on the story, it feasts on different parts of humans, such as their heart or livers.
for my version of the gumiho i based it off a story where a gumiho disguises itself as a bride at a wedding. this is why i'm holding a mask painted with makeup worn at a traditional korean wedding by a bride. for the color scheme i went with warm browns because it matches the fox ears i'm wearing. also they are commonly portrayed as looking scary and demonic, so i tried to do the opposite with this makeup, because i wanted to portray it in a different way...more magical than scary.
hope you enjoy this video!
⭐️⭐️⭐️ Also for everyone asking these aren't contacts, i just edited the intro in After Effects. Eyes too sensitive for contacts rn ⭐️⭐️⭐️

hullo everyone ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ today's video is a mana malice mizer makeup tutorial, as some people have requested i continue creating more malice mizer makeup looks. hope you enjoy! i have a lot of tips for this makeup look as i used to cosplay mana as a teenager, so i'll be talking a lot more than usual this time around :3
of course, this is part of my minspooky halloween makeup series, where i do halloween makeup looks inspired by darker, creepier subjects...in this case mana was supposed to represent a shinigami in the music video le ciel.
as i mentioned before, i used to cosplay as mana when i was a teenager, before youtube existed. my main source of learning how to do his makeup back then was Livejournal, so i'm going to pass along some info on how he actually did his cosplay makeup. sadly enough it looks like there isn't any info out there anymore about how he did his malice mizer makeup.
mana did not have a prominent crease so he always drew in a fake crease with makeup. if you have monolids you should be able to do this makeup perfectly. but if you don't have monolids you probably can't replicate his makeup correctly. i have hooded eyelids so when i put any thick eyeliner on, it usually creates the illusion i have monolids. so in this tutorial, i simply drew above my actual crease line to mimic that effect.
mana also does a very peculiar thing with his lower lash line by leaving a small gap between his waterline and the eyeliner. he's not simply filling in his waterline with white. this enlarges the eye as well as creates a sort of sad, tired look to the eye. to enhance this he also commonly shades around the outer lower half of the eyelid.
his lip makeup is very hard to do because it's very specific to his own lip shape. he has very very small lips and a unique lip shape. he always overlines his top lip following his lip line. his bottom lip is always smaller both in width and length.
also mana's makeup is always VERY precise. everything is clean. so really make sure to do it as cleanly as possible. his looks are never messy or unblended. i read in an interview once that he spends 2 hours on his makeup, so take your time with it. this took me roughly the same amount of time.
i think that about covers it! hope you enjoy this video :3

i originally got the idea for makeup look this from goldiestarling, who is an amazing makeup artist - she did a look based on edgar allan poe's poem back in 2012. when i first saw it i knew i wanted to create my own version of it (does anybody else think of doing makeup looks for 5 yrs or is it just me...?)
i too really love edgar allan poe, enjoyed reading his short stories a lot as a kid...so this was fun to create. i think creating makeup looks from literature is a very interesting concept, and it's only appropriate to feature edgar allan poe in a halloween series right :3
i wanted to keep the look fairly simple. i used construction paper layered on top of false eyelashes to create raven wings. this is a technique i've been doing since last year and it's a fantastic (and most importantly, CHEAP) way to customize false lashes.
i made a tutorial on this last year! it's linked below:

helllo everyone ʕ♡˙ᴥ˙♡ʔ today's video is a ball jointed doll (BJD) makeup tutorial, done shironuri style! this has to be one of my most complicated makeup transformations to date...i believe the original doll is supposed to be a unicorn. the original BJD faceup was done by nailyce on deviantart, click the link below to see it:
my last few BJD (ball jointed doll) makeup looks haven't been as intricate or dare I say interesting, so I wanted to find a more complicated design to replicate. so that's why i chose this BJD faceup for.
i replicated the tiara-like design on my forehead, and represented the horn on its forehead with a teardrop shape. then i wanted to do something different with the nose, so i went with a different design, covering any orange areas with white designs. i also didn't want to do the same gradient lips again, so I kept it simple by darkening the top and bottom edge of my lips only.
i'm also wearing horns because i made them a while ago and thought it would pair well with this BJD faceup but uhhh...maybe next time i should check if they're the same length.
the lashes are custom made! I took Eylure Grand Glamour lashes and placed curled pieces of black paper on top. i've been doing this trick for over a year now; watch the video below if you want to see how i make them:
also i placed gems on the ends of the paper lashes to cause it to cascade down my eyes. it feels really strange to wear but i like the effect it creates :3

hi there! long time no see ʕ♡˙ᴥ˙♡ʔ today's video is a fantasy fairy makeup tutorial, inspired by the watercolor art of Stephanie Pui-Mun Law! for more information on this look please read below!
・ m a k e u p ・
i've have this urge to create fantasy makeup looks based on artworks lately, so here's the latest edition into my unofficial series. this is a look inspired by stephanie pui-mun law, who primarily works with watercolor and does very beautiful, ethereal intricate paintings. i used to post to a lot of fantasy art galleries in middle school and she was one of the popular artists on one website (elfwood i think; but that site is long gone now i believe) aside from linda bergkvist. it's great how the internet exposes people to different artists and art styles eh ^_^
however i am very bad with watercolors...so i thought i would try to imitate it on my face. we all gotta have goals, right...
this fantasy fairy makeup look took 4-5 hours to complete and was 100% improvised. i referenced individual watercolor photos (had photographs of just random watercolor splotches and stuff) plus actual paintings by stephanie pui-mun law. the main one i referenced is the one shown in the thumbnail.
this tutorial is the exact opposite of easy, but even if you don't do it i hope you can learn different ways of utilizing eyeliner and eyeshadow. makeup is pretty versatile, and doesn't just have to be used to look pretty.
hope you enjoyed this video! my skincare routine video will be uploaded right after this so stay tuned okidoki :3

hullo~ in today's video i used only makeup to recreate Agnes Cecile's Queen of Diamonds painting on my face. why? because she's one of my favorite artists and i like challenging myself. queen of diamonds is one of my favorite paintings and i've always wanted to create the same look using the medium i know best - which is makeup (i'm bloody horrible with real watercolors also lol).
・ m a k e u p ・ i've been experimenting with a lot of different techniques to create a specific watercolor effect for years. lately i've been playing with layering eyeshadows (which I first did in my Han makeup look) and then adding eyeshadows mixed with duraline over top. it works pretty well but it's still difficult to get right. i'm pretty happy this makeup turned out pretty okay.
my advice for this is to focus on building up color. thinner washes of color are easier to adjust and intensify, but if you add too much you really can't take it away. but if you do make a mistake don't panic, just work with it. there are no mistakes only happy accidents, as bob ross says :3
also before anyone asks I edited my eye color in premiere pro to match the painting; i currently can't wear colored contacts. really sucks because i think desio lenses would look good with this.

heyo ʕ♡˙ᴥ˙♡ʔ for today's video i thought i'd show you my aesthetic makeup look i've been wearing in various ways for the past few months, inspired by nature and art. i've always wanted to wear makeup that makes me look like a painting (odd obsession of mine). for more details on this makeup look, please read below!
for this makeup look i wanted to create something based off my current aesthetic, which is drawing plants all over my face. yeah...ok. that sounds weird to type out. but i've been wearing various designs over my eyes and face this summer. when i saw all of the trees and plants around my home come to life after the winter passed, it really made me feel calm and happy :3 so i wanted to see if i translate that feeling to my makeup.
this happens to be my most extreme version of that plant makeup. i did this while wearing shironuri, which i've been wearing for over a year now. drawing the plant shapes isn't actually that hard (at least for me now) if you know how to press the eyeliner into your skin to create the shapes. but it's necessary to use an eyeliner with a short, defined tip, such as the prestige white eyeliner i've been loving way too much lately. not that it's a bad thing because it's very affordable lol.
also added in some of my drawings and cursive handwriting into this video as a little experiment. wow i wish i had a tablet. my hand hates me now. sadface
hope you enjoy this aesthetic makeup look~ it was really fun to make!

hello everyone ʕ•͡ᴥ•ʔ this week's video is a shironuri ROSE OF VERSAILLES inspired cosplay makeup tutorial! it was a manga i quite cherished when i was a teenager and i've always wanted to do the look of a female knight/bodyguard, inspired by lady oscar. for more info, please read below↓
this video was kindly sponsored by MYN, a smartphone app & google chrome extension that allows you to view the products used in makeup tutorials (including this one) just by clicking an icon in the top left hand corner of the video. i specifically did this because i get a lot of questions asking me about the products i use - but unfortunately i'm able to answer all of these questions. by using MYN though you can easily see which products I use.
i also set up a product lookbook with MYN if you would like to see the products i love the most, which you can view below↓
there should be a download link to the app/extension available at that link soon, i'll update it when it is available ^_^ thanks to myn for sponsoring this video, now onto the makeup section!
█ m a k e u p █
for this makeup look i was heavily inspired by several things - the biggest one being lady oscar from rose of versailles, which i read when i was a teenager. i always liked the idea of women taking traditionally masculine roles, probably because i strongly disliked gender roles growing up. honestly wearing makeup is the only "big" traditionally feminine thing i do. wouldn't call myself a tomboy but i do what i like to, not what society tells me to do :P
in some pictures of lady oscar she sports white hair instead of blonde, and her lips have a nice, pink gradient effect. from there i took an eyepatch and choker i had lying around and decided to dress it up by applying pearls and attaching white frills. i always like how pearls and frills look, feels very elegant and fancy lol.
for the eye makeup i was inspired by vintage drawings of flowers and leaves, plus the work of shironuri artist Minori. this was very difficult to do while filming because i'm near sighted and i don't wear contacts. but luckily prestige cosmetics liquid eyeliners are precise and sturdy enough for this sort of work. usually i don't like liquid eyeliners because i don't get that sort of control (not even with kat von d's tattoo eyeliner...sadface) but this was a pleasant surprise. if you don't have this, though, a gel eyeliner with a very small detail brush should work decently however.
hope you enjoy this tutorial, i hope to do something soon as thanks for all the support i've received these past few months ^_^ wonder what it'll be, hmm hmm...

hullo everyone ʕ•͡ᴥ•ʔ today's video was highly requested, how to easily remove heavy makeup! perfect for halloween makeup, cosplay makeup, etc.
some people think that the makeup i wear must be hard or take a long time to remove...when in fact it doesn't take me more than 5 minutes to remove everything. so no i am not scrubbing at my face for hours, it's both easy and cheap to remove ^_^
read below for more info!
█ how i remove heavy makeup █
okay so this isn't very complicated...or expensive, which i what i really care about most lol. coconut oil is a very cheap way to loosen up heavy makeup and cleanse it from your face, i've been using it for years. it's also "natural" too for people who prefer to use makeup removers with less harmful ingredients.
simply scoop some out of a jar with a spoon (to keep it sanitary - don't want germs collecting in it), warm it up with your hands if it's still in solid form, then massage it into your face. after everything gets goopy, wipe off with a warm towel. simply repeat the process until all of the makeup is gone.
now i know what some people are going to say...you shouldn't use coconut oil because it's comedogenic (can break you out). well i just cleanse my face really well after removing my makeup so that it doesn't break me out. coconut oil makes me break out easily so i make sure to remove every single trace of it...i'll have a video on my skincare routine soon too.
as for the kind of coconut oil i buy, i buy whatever type where it's the cheapest. i usually get it from aldi, which is a supermarket in my area. a jar lasts me up to 6 months.

hullllo everyone ʕ˙ᴥ˙ʔ today's video is a world of warcraft blood elf makeup tutorial done in shironuri makeup, inspired by an RP character i used to play...i may regret admitting that, but uhhh anyhoo. for more information on this makeup, products i used, etc. please read below!
the wig in this video was generously provided by evahair.com a website which sells a variety of lace front wigs for everyday wear or cosplay. it's a very beautiful wig - very easy to comb and style - i put it into pig tails for this look. comes with a wig cap too.
they also gave me a discount code, just enter "Minsooky" at checkout to receive 10% off :3

accessories
hair accessory made by me a looong time ago for a legend of zelda cosplay. i bought the supplies from michaels and etsy. the same goes for the necklace i'm wearing in the video.
elf ears from lessaselig on etsy.com a while, which was custom painted white. it's no longer available but you can see similar elf ears here: goo.gl/NS90YS
about the makeup
i've wanted to cosplay as world of warcraft characters for a long time. before i began this youtube channel i played a lot of world of warcraft, both regularly and RP. then i had to buy a new computer and realized WoW wouldn't work on it...so i haven't been able to play it in a long time :( really blows.
but i decided to base this look off an RP character i used to play on wyrmrest accord. she was a young blood elf hunter with red hair who was incredibly naive. so i tried to make myself look younger and more "innocent" so to speak...blood elf women also tend to usually look very feline and attractive, so i also kept that in mind.
i'd love do more world of warcraft cosplay looks. what do you all think? :3 i think perhaps a night elf look is in order next.

hullo everyone ʕ˙ᴥ˙ʔ today's video is a dark forest fairy makeup tutorial, once again done in my shironuri (white face makeup) style. for more information, including products used and how i created this look, make sure to read the info below!
makeup products listed below. [pr] indicates a company sent this product to me for free, but i was not required to review or give positive feedback. some links below are affiliate links, which help me fund future projects on this channel.
for this makeup i wanted to create a dark forest fairy makeup that wasn't too heavy. sometimes i think "darker" fairies are portrayed as wearing a lot of heavy, gothic makeup. so i opted for something lighter, using the same blending technique i used in my previous tutorial. i also kept the eyeshadow a bit unblended to make it look more artistic. for the lips, i did what they call now a "lollipop lip," which is essentially just an overblown korean gradient lip look. i stuck with darker colors to complement the theme. i hope it created quite a mystical theme in this video :3
and wow posing while covered in fake vines sure is awkward lul
i'm hoping to release 2 new videos next week! one will be another everyday look, whereas the other will be a blood elf inspired makeup tutorial. hopefully my computer will cooperate!
