From makeup, hair to outfit, we’ll be looking at all the stunning edits and vibrant visuals from the mega hit Kpop group's 'Dynamite' to bring you the best BTS inspired Korean beauty and fashion tips!

Jimin’s Ethereal Beauty Look

Of course we have to talk about our Baby Mochi, aka BTS Jimin’s ethereal ‘soft boy’ beauty look in ‘Dynamite’. I know we’re all falling head over heels for his soft gaze, but the star of Jimin’s beauty look goes to his glossy lips and subtle smokey eye makeup

To match his delicate ‘soft boy’ aesthetic, Jimin goes light on his lips with a nude lip gloss featuring a sheer coral undertone, which brings everyone’s focus to his toned-down smokey eye makeup. To recreate Jimin’s look, all you need is a pair of colored contact lenses + a nice wash of charcoal brown around the eye corner in a subtle gradient finish.

Suga’s Mochi Skin Base Makeup

Apart from his gummy smile, BTS Suga is also known for his ‘mochi skin’ complexion while being the member with the fairest, lightest skin tone. So we don’t blame you if you find his skin enviable. During his appearance in ‘Dynamite’ MV, Suga has an iconic close-up shot that perfectly reveals his flawless true-to-skin base makeup.

To achieve his mochi-like complexion, you’ll need the perfect matte foundation cushion to set up the base makeup along with a concealer to cover your blemishes and spots. For the final makeup step, innisfree’s Pore Blur Powder is the perfect setting powder to bring you the ultimate poreless effect.

RM’s Pastel Blue Hair + Bold Brows Look

I think we can all agree that RM’s pastel blue hair style stole the spotlight in ‘Dynamite’ MV. This fan-favorite hairstyle might make ARMY reminisce about BTS Young Forever era but this time RM did it with a bold brow look which makes the pastel blue stand out even more. To achieve those prominent brows like RM, start with a brow tint if you are blessed with bushy eyebrows, or you can work your eyebrows slowly with a brow tattoo or a brow pencil to get them in good shape!
