LE SSERAFIM Leader Kim Chaewon Shares Beauty Secrets

Kim Chaewon, the leader of LE SSERAFIM, is renowned for her versatility. Not only can she sing anything with her golden set of pipes, but her beauty is as versatile as her vocals. She can switch between bold, blushy styles and delicate, fairy-like aesthetics at a moment’s notice. One of her standout looks was the one she sported for her “ANTIFRAGILE” fancam, characterized by sparkling eyes, faded lips, and a radiant blush.

A significant aspect of this look is the emphasis on her “aegyo-sal”—the puffy under-eye area that adds a youthful charm. To achieve this, Chaewon starts by applying blush to that area as well as her cheeks. According to her, it’s important to pick the right blush that will accent the area and add to your look. Personally, she favors peach or pink.

She then highlights the most prominent part of her aegyo-sal using a shimmering eyeshadow stick, though a regular shimmering eyeshadow with a small brush works just as well. Setting it with a sparkling loose eyeshadow powder completes the look.

In a video interview posted to W Korea’s YouTube channel, Chaewon shared her secret to flawless makeup and skin. “Hello, W subscribers! I’m Kim Chaewon. How to achieve my signature aegyo-sal? Well, my aegyo-sal makeup emphasizes the under-eye area with a sparkling touch. By using Make Up For Ever Aqua Resist Smoky Shadow #10 and finishing with Star Lit Diamond Powder #111, you can complete my signature look,” she began.

What Chaewon does to stay beautiful

When asked about her off-day makeup routine, she mentioned preferring a natural look with a hint of color, given the elaborate stage makeup she often wears. She also emphasized the importance of developing a skincare routine.

“Like everyone else, I take cleansing very seriously. I’m quite obsessed with hydration. I moisturize day and night, so my focus is on moisturizing. Also, no matter where I go, I always carry two items with me. First, my go-to item is the HD SKIN Cushion. It adheres naturally and offers good coverage. Voilà! I even applied it now. The second item is the Make Up For Ever UHD Pressed Powder. I always finish with this powder. After using it, you can see that the skin texture looks very clean and refined. It enhances the appearance of my skin. I’m currently using this powder as well.”

Chaewon also touched upon her workout routine. “I often engage in bodyweight exercises. Lately, I’ve been focusing more on bodyweight exercises than on lifting weights or using equipment to prevent injuries. But did you know? Bodyweight exercises are genuinely challenging. I’m diligently practicing them,” she shared. “I have a workout routine, but if I were to detail everything, it might take all night. The exercises I do most frequently and enjoy the most are planks and side planks. I also incorporate burpees. When I feel I’ve overindulged on a particular day, I tend to do a lot of burpees.” 

All of that helps this talented idol stay beautiful. For more from Chaewon and the record-breaking girl group she leads, keep an eye on W Korea’s social media. – K-Pop News Writer
