I tried 5 viral K-beauty treatments in South Korea—here’s what they were really like

She started by asking questions about my current wardrobe and color preferences, then traveled the process. Most color analysts in Korea work with four seasonal pallets: spring, summer, fall and winter. Woo covered my hair and my white towel t-shirts to neutralize the distractions, then maintained more than 60 color samples against my face.

I was surprised to see how certain nuances made my complexion more radiant, while others completely won. Interestingly, many of his observations aligned with choices that I already make – bright colors and high contrast tend to suit me. She noted that pastel tones brought out the green and gray shades on my face, which explained why I always avoided them, even if I love them on others.

There were also unexpected take -out dishes. While I supposed that the bright colors were my best match, Woo thought it was actually my second best palette. His first recommendation? Deep and winter shades like Forest Green, Navy and Maroon, shades that I had never considered before.

We then went to hair color, jewelry tones and makeup. This part fascinated me. She used a device to assess red and yellow shades in my skin and helped me identify my ideal foundation shade. Then, she took a look at my personal makeup kit, which, without surprise, was full of brilliant lipsticks and fishing for fishing, and suggested that I try milder and brighter finishes in shades like bay, pink pink and cherry red.

It’s been a month since this meeting, and his advice has really stayed with me. I now find myself in Gravira to these winter tones when I do shopping, something that I have never done before. I also picked up some makeup articles in Seoul according to his advice, and although the look is different from my usual style, I loved the change.

If you have trouble with personal style or you often feel overwhelmed when shopping for good clothes and good makeup, I strongly recommend trying a color analysis session in South Korea. It’s insightful, surprisingly fun, and can really change the way you see yourself.

Advice: Go prepared with all style questions and transport your makeup bag. Suzi will examine your eyelid shadows, blush and the nuances of lipstick as part of the session.
