As K-Pop continues to reach a wider global audience, fans have become increasingly interested in K-Beauty trends, wanting to emulate the trend-setting looks of Korea’s top stars.

For years, the “glass skin” and natural makeup trend has swept K-Pop, with idols appearing with glowing skin and light make-up carefully accentuating their natural beauty.

Variations of more natural makeup looks remain prevalent, but netizens have recently acknowledged a new, edgier trend on the rise.

The ’90s grunge smokey eye trend is back, and just in time for the revival of ’90s and early 2000s fashion trends K-Pop idols have been embracing as of late.

Korea’s top celebrities have already been spotted shaking up their regular style and rocking the smokey-eye trend.

The grungy look has already been seen on K-Pop idols in magazines, photoshoots, at fashion events, and more.
