2NE1 "Can't Nobody" CL Monolid Makeup Tutorial

10:43 AM

Hello everybody! I have yet another inspired look to share with you guys. This time, I decided to fulfill a highly requested look that I pretty much fell in love with after getting the screencaps. It's CL's look in 2NE1's video for "Can't Nobody"!



And here is the original music video:

Some screencaps I took of CL from the video:





Products mentioned:

Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream #23
Urban Decay Primer Potion
L'Oreal HIP Cream Shadow Paint in 909
Urban Decay Naked Palette (Creep for lids, Buck for eyebrows)
Lioele All In One Gel Eyeliner
NYX Single Eyeshadow in Black
Mineral Magic Cosmetics Eyeshadow in Self Control
Aromaleigh Indelible Eyeliner Sealant
Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler
Sugar half-lashes in Angel
Lash Grip Adhesive in dark tone
Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus Mascara
MAC Spaced Out Blush
Lioele Blooming Pop Cherry Tint
Lioele Blooming Gloss in Vanilla Pink
Circle lenses are T-Top Ice Flower Grey lenses

And of course, my mean mug:


Eyes closed. I realized after editing that I didn't even use a highlight color. I didn't need one!


With my head tilted back a bit so you can see the full effect. Shadow always gets tucked under for monolidders, but I think it really works for this look.


I did have some people ask about my hair and I didn't do anything different, I just blowdried it instead of air drying it which tends to make it more straight and poofy. I think I may have used a bit of Garnier Fructis beachy paste stuff to style it, which I briefly talked about two years ago here.


I know this is a bit of a weird angle, but I thought it showed the eyes and lips off nicely. Gotta be more creative to show off the lid on monolid looks since the "in-between" blinks are so visually interesting. ^_~


And here I wanted to show off this really wickedly awesome necklace I received from Catherine of See Jewelry Online. It's pretty edgy without overwhelming the rocker-pretty look, imo. As soon as my friend saw this she got so excited because she had just seen something similar on Rachel Zoe a couple days before.



Here's the pic of it from her site. Thai silver and clear quartz! I totally *drool* over statement pieces like this!


Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the look and please do let me know if any of you decide to try it out! I was really pleased with the final look and heck, monolid girls could use a bit more variety and options with their makeup. Sometimes it's easy to fall into a routine of thick eyeliner or smokey eyes so hopefully this can switch things up a bit. :)

As always, let me know your requests for future inspired looks in the comments.

  1. One of my fave looks so far! I think it trumps that look in your bra vid which I've been obsessing over lol. Really interesting how she / you did the thick black on the lid...the last photo of you is simply stunning. Can't wait to watch the vid when I get home!

  10. Hi jen!
    I love this tutorial!!
    I was wondering..how I would do this look on myself..
    My eyes are weirdly shaped in the way that I have a double eyelid LINE but it is lower than where my actual crease/eye socket is..

    and whats worse is that that double lid line is small but can still be seen mainly at the ends of my eyes.

    it's really frustrating because they are basically in between a monolid and a double lidded (?) eye.
    Is there any advice you have for someone like me that wants to do this look?
    do i extend the look to my real crease or my double lid line?

    haha sorry for this long comment.. XP

  11. please please please could you do dara's look in the opening sequence of clap your hands where they are wearing hoodies and dancing on the bench next to the blue car??

    Love your make up look! xo

    ReplyDelete
  16. wow, very gorgeous look!! you definitely got the eyes just right.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I love it! I really think it's good how people like CL have monolids and haven't gone and got surgery. She's like a role model! =)

    I'm wishing I had eyes like that now. I tried it on my smallish double-lids and it didn't come out as nice..but it was a sloppy job! xD

    But seriously, good job Jen!! =) The look (and you) look great!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  18. you look SO much like Dara here!

    ReplyDelete
  19. If you have time, can you do Minzy's look in the same video; specifically the scene where she's wearing the spike hoody. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  20. I used to do this kind of eyeliner as my everyday go-to look, haha! Some people say that the "eyelid full of eyeliner" for monolids is a faux pas, but I really don't care :p

    very♔aimée

    ReplyDelete
  21. I have to say for a minute there I was like "Where's Jen? That's Dara and CL...ooohhh" lol

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hi Jen, will you be able to do a tutorial on how you remove your make up at the end of the day. You use a lot of waterproof makeup and its hard to remove, it would be good to know what's the proper way to remove make up. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  32. I really love this look! You look seriously amazing and better than the original! I have semi-lids and I wonder how this would look on me, but I think this is such a flattering look for monolids! Another great example of how make-up can transform and enhance when done right!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Wow look like a different person! <3

    ReplyDelete
  34. This is such a great look! Not only is it simple (not loads of product imo) but it's completely wearable. You're amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  35. monolids+thick black eyeliner = <3
    your tutorials keep getting better and better!

    i think i've requested this before but i would love for you to try Ga-in's lollipop look in her 'Irreversible' music video! the one with the bright blue shadow and crazy long lashes! Seems like it would be an interesting look for you! PLUS she's a monolidder too :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. TOTALLY love this look on you! Will definitely be trying to do this look for sure. Unfortunately my eyelids are full of suckage (so oily nothing stays). I think you look better than CL! You look gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
  37. you look like Sandra Park from 2NE1 in some of the photos!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I love this look :) Normally I'm weird about overly dark colors because I feel like it makes eyes look smaller but this makes yours super pop out!

    ReplyDelete
  39. your hair always look amazing. i wish you could do a combination of a few simple hair tutorial for everyday college/work look. Sometimes you braid your hair really nicely and curl it really nicely

    ReplyDelete

  66. Has anyone experienced problems with using the codes for Pretty and Cute and Pinky Paradise? When I entered them in, it was said to be invalid :(

    ReplyDelete
  67. in the first picture i thought you were sandra park! I was wondering where you were. :) I have a question. I have a problem with mascara smudging off of my monolided eyes on my lower eye lid, would the urban decay primer potion help stop the smudging from happening on my lower eyelid?

    ReplyDelete
  68. Jen, this is Carol from Brazil. I just loved your blog! I'm a Japanese Brazilian and monolid eyes. Your tutorials are the best. Congratulation! :)

    ReplyDelete
  76. Wow, you and Dara can just go ahead and be twins already. ;)
    I first saw your 2ne1-Try to Follow Me Tutorial, and I became hooked! :D
    You and Dara have very, very similar face structures (especially in the mouth/lip and cheekbone area). Hahaa, I'm envious.

    You can definitely pull off CL very well. So beautiful!

    I hope you do more 2ne1 tutorials in the future!

    ReplyDelete
  77. awesome look! Don't listen to those who say you look like any of the 2NE1 members. All of them actually aren't that pretty when you take all their heavy eyeliner and makeup off. But you're gorgeous with minimal makeup and with more makeup on.

    So you can't possibly look like any of them even remotely!

    ReplyDelete
  78. Hi Jen, I love your tutorial.

  84. i seriously thought that the girl in that pic was dara. it was my first time passing by here so it took me a few lookbacks before i was convinced it wasnt. loveett!!! <3 do you think that would fit big eyes? im not monolid & i would so wanna try kpop eye makeups but im scared that they might make my eyes so much bigger than they really are. any suggestions? looking forward! <3

    ReplyDelete
  85. hi jen! im a biggest fan of your makeup tutorials and i was looking through a korean popular website called cyworld.co.kr and noticed that your CL makeup video was featured on the site. just wanted to give you heads up if you already didnt know.
    I also noticed how critical koreans can be when it comes to makeup.
    Your tutorials are amazing so keep up the good work!

    ReplyDelete
  86. great tutorial. love this simply yet sexy look! i love the necklace too.

    ReplyDelete
  87. I really like this tutorial since I'm a monolid also. Will try this look for sure :)

  91. your makeup tutorials are awesome!! ♥♥♥♥ I saw them on some random Korean makeup forum and I've read lots of comments that worry about you cuz they read your tweets about Cyworld T_T many Korean girls love your tutorial A LOT!! I wish my English is good enough to translate all their good comments about your tutorial T_T anyway, I can't wait to see your next tutorial!! >_<

  94. CL is one of my favorite celebrities and I loved LOVED her look in Can't Nobody. Thanks for the tutorial.I'm still a novice to eye makeup so it was quite helpful. I'll definitely try this look some time =)

    ReplyDelete
  95. Hey Jen, I love this monolid video so much, I think you look awesome in this look. I have monolid, well, I guess a lot of asian girls do, and what I do everyday is place a doublelid tape on my lid to fake it. However, it's extremely difficult to apply eyeshadow on, kinda frustrating. Well, thank you so much for making this video coz that's always something that I want to learn. I am still playing with this look, did couple of times before, need more practice I guess!

    ReplyDelete
  96. Oh wow that looks amazing! How can I achieve this look if I have double eyelids? I'm Asian too so I don't have deep set eyes.

    ReplyDelete
  97. well it's not all bad that guy put your video on cyworld...i mean you've got a bunch of views which leads to people to check out your other vids which is good

  98. Love love your look , thank you for the great tutorial.

  99. Hi Jen! You always have such amazing tutorials, especially for monolids. Would you be able to do a simple tutorial for people who are just starting out with makeup (like me :)), but don't necessarily have alll the wonderful makeup items you have? For example, what are key items that you would recommend? Thanks!!

  102. Hey Jen, I was wondering if you would do a tutorial on BoA's new video, Copy&Paste? It looks super simple with nice big lashes (I guess that's the current theme) and nice sleek hair (if you could do the updo hairstyle that would be awesome). But yea, I just thought I'd pick your brain for some ideas. You have a great blog and I love following your stuff. :)

  103. I love this look so much!:) I learned about putting a eyeshadow and eyeliner better :D
