Get that East Asian TikTok beauty look in a few easy steps.

One of the fastest-rising online beauty trends are TikTok makeup videos popularized by Chinese content creators in the video-sharing app.

Though the videos themselves aren't very informative, seeing the way they apply makeup and their final transformation is quite mesmerizing.

After seeing a few of these videos herself, Pinay beauty YouTuber Letisha Velasco tried following along to see if she could also achieve that TikTok beauty look.

Based off of her observations, here are the steps Letisha followed in the video:

Base

For the base, Letisha noticed that they use a light foundation all over. They also subtly contoured along the sides of their nose.

Eyes

To achieve bigger-looking eyes, they draw a line using a brow pencil under their eye to emphasize their bags. They also sweep pink-toned browns on the outer corner of their upper and lower lids.

Letisha also topped her eye look with a champagne shimmer in the center, inner corner, and inner-thirds of the lower lash line.

For the finishing touches, they applied a wispy pair of top and bottom lashes then lined their eyes that point slightly downwards.

Brows

Their brows tend to be on the lighter, thinner, and straighter side. Doing so makes the face appear sweeter and younger.

Blush and Highlighter

Letisha placed her peachy orange blush quite high up on her cheeks, blending it widely and stopping just by the sides of her nose. On a smaller brush, she also applied blush on the very tip of her nose.

As for the highlighter, she swiped a bit of it on the high points of her cheeks, nose, and cupid's bow.

Lips

For the lips, Letisha opted for a burnt orange shade of lipstick. She also blended a bit of concealer on her upper lip for that K-beauty gradient look.

Hair

Lastly, she wore her hair down and added some wispy bangs for the finishing touch.
