Opinions are dividing over Jennie's recent makeup choice at the Cannes.
On community forums, netizens are discussing the style of makeup worn by the BLACKPINK member at the Cannes Film Festival. K-netizens also brought reactions of international fans to their forum, debating which style suits Jennie the most.
At the festival, Jennie overall displayed earthy tones with nude colors and bronze shades. Lip shades comprised of powder mattes and nude balms, from darker rosy shades to more natural pink. All the makeup products were from Hera.
The makeup was done by artist Nina Park, who has previously worked with Jung Ho Yeon, Olivia Rodrigo, and Kaia Jordan Gerber. She is known for her distinct style of accentuating the details of the face, including the lashes and the celebrity's natural skin texture.
While some agreed that Jennie has "always followed the suitable makeup path depending on each event," others critiqued the styling "for being too bland" and expressed that they "miss her old debut style."
The makeup style from her debut days highlighted her smoky eyes and sculpted cheekbones.
Reactions include:
"Maybe she chose that style because she attended the event as an actress [and not as an idol]."
"Nude-y makeup is in nowadays but I don't know if that suits Jennie"
"I reallyyyyyyyyyyyyyy miss her old makeup"
"Well, I love Jennie's look from the Cannes...she looks like a pictorial"
"She just looks pretty whatever she does"
"I'm not a fan of that makeup artist's choice"
"Jennie looks better with stronger makeup because that is her style"
"What are her personal colors?"
"Her current style reflects the spring season, I think"
What is your reaction?
Its either a bad stylist or a bad concept. But it's also the case of trying to look like a teen icon at 27.
