We have the opportunity to try out these babies, just in time for the Lunar New Year celebration recently where we doll up for the special occasion. If you know me in person, you know I don't usually wear a lot of makeup, maybe just a little lipstick to brighten up my day so these makeup looks are literally simple everyday makeup look created under 20 minutes.


Time to doll up with Althea Korea!

To create this romantic soft pink look, I applied Pearly Pink over the eyelid, followed by Deep Wine on the crease. Also, I've added a touch of Shimmery Nude on the brow bone, just under the brow and line the lower half of lash line with a subtle Deep Wine to define the eyes and finish off with Maroon Cream lip tint.



For this look, I've used Metallic Rose Gold over the entire lid and Shimmery Purple over the eyelid crease. Again, I've highlighted my brow bone with Shimmery Nude and apply Deep Wine on half of the lower lash line. To complete this Sweet Purple look, I've applied Peach Cream lip tint for my lips and adds a hint of colour on my cheek with Plum Cream lip tint.



Also, you may try gradient lip by applying the lip tint on the inner edges of the lips for a subtle pretty sheen pout.
