2NE1 "Try To Follow Me" Dara-Inspired Rainbow Eyes Tutorial
8:23 PMI'm not gonna lie, I'm especially excited about this tutorial. Remember that whole Facebook doppleganger thing where you'd choose the celebrity who is your lookalike as your profile photo for a week? I chose 2NE1's Sandara Park since she is the celebrity I'm most often told I look like. In fact, a sweet girl even private messaged me to tell me that someone else was stealing my photo to use as their facebook photo (but it was actually that I was using Dara's photo! hehe...)
2NE1 is one of my favorite Korean pop groups and I've always had a soft spot for Dara so I'm totally flattered to have people think we look alike! Most times when people tell me I look like someone I don't see it but for Dara I can somewhat see the resemblance as with Narsha from Brown Eyed Girls.
Check out their Try To Follow Me video here:
And my tutorial here:
What do you think? Do we look alike?
Some screencaps I took. Love her rainbow shadow!!

And here are my shots. Plz to appreciate my hard work in curling my bangs like this. I am no hairstylist. I swear, Sandara's must have been an actual tube inside or fake hair or something because this was NOT EASY! I'm pretty sure I used an entire can of hairspray. Don't ask me to do a tutorial cause I swear it will be soooo bad. XD
My best Dara impressions. She does lots of silly faces!
And just having some fun with the light. Ooooh, backlighting~
Let me know what you think in the comments!! What should I do for my next "inspired" look?

you guys are like twins! LOved the tutorial
ReplyDeleteYou two do definitely have a striking resemblance! Absolutely beautiful though :) Thanks for the tutorial!! <3
ReplyDeleteWow you really do look alike! I'm excited to see the tutorial but I can't cuz I'm at work with no speakers. Hehe. :} I REALLY like your falsies!
ReplyDeleteWow your dupe is even better than the original! Those lashes are awesome and I love the last pic!!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! you did an amazing job (: && you guys look so much alike! I love Sandara, she is so silly (;
ReplyDeleteWow, you guys look really similar!
ReplyDeleteYou guys have some similar features, but not total twinkies. You both have different qualities, she's more on the cute side, you look more mature and sophisticated/sexy. Thanks for the tutorial :)
ReplyDeletewow you guys are so alike.. esp with this makeup look on. Lips eyes brows n everything.. even nose. beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhoa...you really nailed this look. I think it looks better on you than Sandara!
ReplyDeleteJen! This tutorial was amazing!!!! You really did a great job. and absolutely beautiful look as well! ^o^
ReplyDeletewow you do look like her ! so pretty c:
ReplyDeleteawesome tutorial i loved it
omgawd!!! yall definitely look alike!
ReplyDeleteis tooo alike, like twins. your hair looks really cool... love it :)
ReplyDeleteJen! Aw you did such an awesome job! I love 2NE1 and Dara is one of my fave girls out of that group. That music video is also one of my faves. When it first came out, my friend and I couldn't stop admiring their make up! Especially their eye makeup! It's just toooo pretty! And I think you did a great job. The bangs looked super difficult to do. I think you're right, Dara must have had something rolled up in her bangs or they were fake bangs lol for them to be THAT perfectly rolled lol!
ReplyDeleteOne of my friend's went to YG Entertainment building to deliver stuff to 2NE1 today (: haha I was so excited, and wished that I was still in Korea so that I could go with my friend Lol.
that is such a fun and cute look. Love it! and yes, you do look alike. Beautiful as always!
ReplyDeleteman, i want to know her skincare secret because she looks like a kid there and she's suppose to be older than you. so jealous.
ReplyDeletethis is the best 2ne1 look i have seen! GREAT colourful job : )
ReplyDeleteCamilla: She's only older than me by 1 month. lol.
ReplyDeletewow you did an awesome job on that look! you look exactly like her :) great job! and love your lashes!!!
ReplyDeleteyou look prettier than her....
ReplyDeleteSoooooo what did you do after putting on all that makeup? Besides shooting stormtroopers that is XD
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely btw <3 Reminds me of a rainbow popsicle. No idea if they have that in the US (have yet to see one) but is aplenty in south east asia :p
I lub you.
ReplyDeleteCheck List of thoughts by me that others have thought too a millions times before:
[X] You DO look like Sandara!
[X] You both are soooooo prettyyyyy!
[X] Your skin is flawless.
[X] I think you're a bit prettier than Sandara but you both are GORGEOUS!
[X] You should be Sandara's stand in and be part of 2NE1 when she isn't available for appearances.
[X] You are talented. You have mad artistic skills with make-up and with everything you do!
[ ] You are a pretty pink pony in another life I've decided.
[X] Looove you!
wow you look so alike o.o
ReplyDeleteand great job on the makeup, hair, everything! love the falsies btw
This is so cute! I didn't think you looked like Sandara (Narsha from BEG is closer) but after this tutorial, I definitely see the resemblance :-)
ReplyDeleteare you two long-lost twins? lol
ReplyDeletebtw your tutorial is amazing *as always*
You guys look really alike! I shall wear this look for my receptionist job tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteyou guys are totally twins
ReplyDeletei love your outfit!
you should definitely do a dara inspired outfit post
okay, three words:
ReplyDeleteohh mahhhh gaaaaaaaaa!
:: squeal::
WOW!! Your makeup and hair is DEAD ON!
ReplyDeleteWOW... I am speechless.
ReplyDeleteYou did such an amazing job Jen!
I like your look better than hers. I think it's something to do with the lashes. STUNNING!!
I don't know what other look I'd want to see but I know I'll love whatever it is you do. I enjoy all your videos.
<3 Serena.
wow i tot the right side photo was YOU! look so ALIKE, JEN! NICE!
ReplyDeletei've never commented before but just had to this time!
ReplyDeleteWOW that was amazingly done
oh! and to add.. I remember commenting on one of your vids that you resembled sandara but from certain angles you resemble boa too! :D maybe you could do a boa-inspired tut next ^-^
ReplyDeleteThat's a very cool look...
ReplyDeleteThanks and keep it up!
In your opinion, do you prefer Skin79 Hot Pink BB Cream or the Lioele Beyond Solution BB Cream ?
Wow Jen! Awesome tutorial!!!
ReplyDeletehaha all ur missing is the gun
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Definitely resemble each other especially in the first photo :) Only diff is she looks cheekier haha, good one Jen!
ReplyDeleteOMG! You look practically the same! =D
ReplyDeleteYou are just soo incredibly amazing and talented, Jen!! Lol I agree with Kassia's checklist 100% You look STUNNING and you definitely really nailed this look to the POINT!! I think you guys look SOO similar!! Except your nose is slimmer and "taller" than hers. I think you're prettier and cuter just because I somewhat know you "personally" (thanks to the good old Internet) and I don't know her at all--I just know of her since she is a celeb! hehe I always enjoy all of your videos! LOVE watching every one of them!!
ReplyDelete♥ caroline

this was excellent!!! and i enjoyed the tutorial very much. you definitely resemble her, especially in this tutorial. you should have added some of that green color on the lower lashline and it would have been flawless!!! can't wait to see more from you~
ReplyDeleteWOWOWOWOWWOOWOWWO..they said it all^^^^^^
ReplyDeleteI was so excited when I saw this tutorial in my blog feed! I LOVE 2NE1 - Fire is one of my favourite songs and I love that song they did with Big Bang, Lollipop :P Great tutorial!
ReplyDeletethis is my favorite look you have done so far. i just loved everything! the makeup. the clothes. the hair. everything! you did such an awesome job!
ReplyDeleteWOW! There is definitely a similarity, but great job! It looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteYou and her look like you were separated at birth! Wow
ReplyDeleteyou're beautiful...:)
ReplyDeleteomg you're so cute!
ReplyDeletehahahaha prettier than dara!!!

Do a Popteen model look! Someone like Tsubasa Masuwaka or Kumiko Funayama !
ReplyDeleteyou two do look alike! both too cute! love the tut you did. esp love the lashes
ReplyDeleteWow! You did a great job on this tutorial! Hahaah
ReplyDeleteYou look really similar to Dara too (:
you guys DO look alike! ('cept you're prettier, lol!)
ReplyDeleteloving the tut but its definitely not something i'd wear on a everyday basis!
Jen you totally pulled off the inspired look! Gorgeous, gorgeous. However, I think you look better than Dara ;] Your cheekbones stand out more so it gives your face better shape. I'm just saaaaaaaayin
ReplyDeleteYou both look like identical twins! It's crazy!
ReplyDeleteVery gorgeous look and VERY good job with the bangs~
I wouldn't even know where to start with that, hah~ >___<
Soo adorable,jen! good job! your looks are so fresh. you kinda put your own twist to it:)
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! Amazing job Jen! =) I think you look better than her! ^.^
ReplyDeleteyou guys are twinnies! beautifullll thanks for the tutorial i have been waiting for a dara inspiration tutorial! xDDD
ReplyDeleteReally nice! Thanks again for anothe great tutorial :D I'm also very interested in skin79 BB cream. Are you going to do a review on it? Because I think Lioele is too light for my skin tone, so I was wondering what your thoughts were on skin79.
ReplyDeleteStunning! You two looks the same, but i agree that you're more gorgeous.. I've been itching to try a makeup with "rainbow colors" since the time i watched alice in the wonderland.. Love how the color are combined... So this is posted on the right timing.
ReplyDeleteStunning lookalike! Beautifully done =) Esp the hair!!
ReplyDeleteawesome tutorial :)
ReplyDeleteyou look just like her!
'cept prettier of course. heh.
The rainbow shadow is soo pretty. Never knew the combination of those colors could look so stunning. I have a dress in the torquoise color and I should try this do! Thanks so much for this tutorial!
ReplyDeleteI loved this tutorial. So fun!! It's crazy...you two look so much alike!!
ReplyDeleteWOW you guys look a lot alike~ AWESOME tutorial =D
ReplyDelete:) Great tutorial Jen! You really pulled off the look.
ReplyDeleteGotta love 2NE1. All their songs are so refreshing and different to the other girl bands out there. Looking forward to their new album, I hope it's as good as their previous one. ^^
Hi Jen,
ReplyDeleteI googled Narsha of Brown Eyed Girls..i got to say..she works a better doppleganger of you rather than Dara. just check out this pic..
http://popseoul.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/narsha_hannah_20090903.jpg
the likeness...doesn't it creep you out a bit??? =^.-=
you look amazing! like a twin sisters, hehe.. :)
ReplyDeletegorgeous! you do look quite a bit alike :)
ReplyDeleteYou should deinitely try something from the new Final Fantasy game, big in Japan.
ReplyDeleteThe picture had me confused for a second.U guys look so much alike there. but man...u and narsha! i can see the resemblance. :)
ReplyDeletecontinue to do kpop inspired makeup. i loved the abracadabra video btw
awesome tutorial, and you did an amazing job =)
ReplyDeletealso, you two do look alike!

ReplyDeleteYou look so gorgeous! The look is so good on you! You make it look wearable! haha, I'd love to see a BoA inspired look sometime!
ReplyDeleteOMG. Your resemblance to Dara is seriously uncanny.. Wow, you really did an excellent makeup tutorial based on the music vid. I'd definitely rock this look at a neon 80's party! :)
ReplyDeleteAWESOME job!!! i love your blog and tutorials!!
ReplyDeleteThis was such a great tutorial!!! The two of you look almost identical!!! Thanks Jen, it was so much fun watching and I love how in the end of the video you sarcastically say this a great everyday look especially when you are shooting storm troopers or something lol
ReplyDeleteyou do look like her! but you have a more mature feminine look, while hers is a younger almost tomboyish face. (it's the eyebrows and nose~)
ReplyDeleteI thinkkk you should experiment WAY OUT for your next tutorial and do a Japanese popteen girl look. Buy a blonde wig and do the falsies!
It'll be tough to pull off but it'd be great to experiment just to see, and for fun!
I know I'd appreciate that tutorial :)
Oh my gosh! You made yourself look just like Dara! So pretty... did you not use eyelid tape? Amazing!
ReplyDeletewow you really look like her!
ReplyDeletePretty look! She's my second fav after CL <3 You do look like her!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.enticinbabydollx.blogspot.com
wow looks absolutely stunning.
ReplyDelete2 thumbs up :)
Oh wow, you did an amazing job, Jenn! Your makeup skills are just gorgeous, and you are super photogenic!
ReplyDeleteGreat job!
sooo pretty *-*~~~ thank you for the new tutorial~~ I LOVE 2NE1
ReplyDeleteyou two are just too cute!
ReplyDeleteWhen I first started watching you on YouTube, I immediately thought you look a lot like Dara. There are similarities between the two of you. Wonderful job you've done.
ReplyDeletewow you do look like dara! xx
ReplyDeleteGreat job! :) Love the make up tutorial! You do look alike ^^ I've seen Sandara Park on a lot of TV shows before on The Filipino Channel. I guess she started the Korean frenzy back there. You two are adorable! Sweet! *two thumbs up!*
ReplyDeleteLove the tutorial! You look like dara.! You look better than dara !!
ReplyDeletexox
woah you're prettier
ReplyDeletei think i like your version better, hahah! :D
ReplyDeletesandara joined a tv contest here in philippines. she didn't win though. but she had lots and lots of fans! then she went back to korea to study acting. when she went back to philippines, there were others who became more popular than her. I guess it was a good decision that she chose to try the limelight in korea. because she became an international star.. ^_^
ReplyDeletepersonally i think u look BETTER than the original!! :) i love your rendition of it <3
ReplyDeleteYou look exactly like her! >o< OMG!~
ReplyDeleteYou should do a SNSD look for your next tutorial! May I suggest Sooyoung or Yuri? My two favorites!
ReplyDeleteuh, are you sure you're not secretly an asian star pretending to be an every day blogger?
ReplyDeletehaha you look so alike, great look!
I actually like ur look way better, esp the lashes.
ReplyDeleteloved the tutorial! could you please do one on Hyunain her music video change?
ReplyDeletehere's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zFS4LTmTXQ
thanks in advance!
SNSD look next please! Genie or Run Devil Run.
ReplyDeleteCan you do Tiffany Hwang from SNSD? Can you do a tutorial on all of her hair styles or maybe most of them and her bangs? :D Much appreciated! :)
ReplyDeleteAre you guys separated at birth? You look so much alike! I so love the eye makeup, it's beautiful!
ReplyDelete안녕하세요~ 한국팬 입니다!
ReplyDelete인터넷을 보고 알게되었어요~
정말로 멋진 여성이란 것을 알 수 있습니다
I LOVE YOU~
oooh you look like her with the backlit photos!
ReplyDeleteU both are really like twins!!
ReplyDeleteI love this look! I tried it last night and I was able to use MOST of the colors you used in this look, from the UD 15th anniversary palette (the olive green was the only one missing). I'm also asian and i have small double lids, but the only thing I wasn't able to see the colors as much when I opened my eyes, maybe next time i'll bring the color up higher. otherwise i loved it! i love your inspired looks & all the fun lashes you experiment with! ;)
