What’s the secret behind their luminous “spotlight skin”?

Fondly known as “spotlight skin”, this refers to luminous, clear skin that looks as though there’s a light shining on it.

Curious about the secret of your favourite K-pop idols’ “spotlight skin”?

Well, according to a tutorial by Le Sserafim’s makeup artist, the key to that spotlight-like radiance lies in a good pink tone-up cream – one that perfectly complements your skin tone!

What exactly is a tone-up cream?

Tone-up creams are a hybrid of makeup and skincare, designed not only to brighten your skin, but also combat hyperpigmentation and discoloration. They can effortlessly transform your complexion, giving it a glowing boost even before you apply any makeup.

If you’ve been grappling with post-acne marks or those pesky freckles, a tone-up cream can be your go-to solution to reduce their appearance. Its primer-like formula also doubles as a makeup base, smoothing out pores and fine lines, creating the perfect canvas for your foundation!
