Glitter has been a big trend in K-pop lately, both on the eyes and the face – but why should the girls get to have all the fun!? These male idols are breaking the gender stereotypes in fashion and proving that glitter looks great on everyone. From subtle specks of sparkle to artful creations with stickers and gems, these idols are showing everyone how it’s done.
1. THE BOYZ’s New
Like a galaxy of stars, the way that this golden glitter in different-sized pieces is spread over THE BOYZ member New’s face is undeniably beautiful! The attention to detail when it comes to placing the pieces of glitter is an effort to be admired. He looks ethereal!
2. ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon
Another artsy take on the glitter and rhinestones trend, ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon has a very precise arrangement of sparkling stones across his cheekbone for this photo shoot. While not necessarily an everyday look, it definitely makes an impact!
3. SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan
For a much cuter, statement-making take on this trend, look no further than SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan! Along with shining stars and confetti, there are adorable stickers interspersed in this look. It matches perfectly with the glitter on his eyelids!
4. RIIZE’s Shotaro
If you want a subtle way to wear glitter on the everyday, take a cue from RIIZE’s Shotaro! This single-star look almost comes across like a shining, star-shaped beauty mark. It’s surprisingly wearable and immediately levels up any look!
5. ZEROBASEONE’s Han Yu Jin
Female idols have repeated this trend over and over again, but ZEROBASEONE’s maknae Han Yu Jin brings a new charm to the inner eye gem! It’s amazing how the shine of a single rhinestone at his inner corners immediately brings all the attention to his eyes.
6. NCT’s Renjun
Unique? Yes. A gorgeous statement makeup look? Definitely! Renjun of NCT stands out from the rest with this purple undereye glitter. The messy, smudged style gives it a slightly punk-rock appearance – like slept-in makeup, in the best way possible!
7. Stray Kids’ Felix
Last but not least, here’s a way that everyone can get away with wearing glitter anytime. Felix of Stray Kids has just the slightest hint of shimmer strategically placed on his brow bone and inner corner, creating a pretty highlight effect. It almost blends in with his freckles!
