Article/Interview: Today Online Singapore~ “2NE1’s Dara Reveals her Eyeliner Disasters, Why She Loves Make-Up More than Chocolate, and Getting Teased by G-Dragon”

Another interesting read! ❤ I like how casual this interview seemed and how the article was written. ^^ I can just imagine the easy banter Dara and GD have! YG Family seems really close.. XD I remember the way Taeyang teased Dara too, even Seungri and Dae tease her a lot.. XD

2NE1’s Dara reveals her eyeliner disasters

2NE1’s Dara says she can’t put on eyeliner by herself.

The K-pop star also tells why she is loving make-up more than chocolate and getting teased by G-Dragon

SINGAPORE – For someone who always looks so put-together, 2NE1’s Sandara Park admitted that she is, like most regular girls, actually hopeless at applying her own eyeliner.

Affectionately known as “Dara”, the 31-year-old was in Singapore for the launch of cosmetics brand moonshot’s new products, the Microfit Cushion and the Moonflash Cushion, both available at Sephora. The moonshot brand is from YG Plus, the lifestyle subsidiary of YG Entertainment, which is the label to which Park is signed.

 While she’s here, you just might catch her having fun at Universal Studios Singapore (“I always go to USS”, she said) or eating chilli crab and pepper crab at Jumbo Seafood. “Jumbo is my favourite restaurant,” she enthused.

Although she loves makeup as much as the next girl, Park said, “Actually, I’m not good at using it. I don’t know how to put eyeliner on by myself,” she said. “Once, I drew my eyeliner on by myself, and when my friend saw me, she was really shocked. She said, ‘You look really scary!’ It was really big and scary.”

She added: “That’s why I use the cushion, and lip gloss. I’m really into the Moonflash cushion right now because it makes your skin look so much fresher, and it’s really easy to use. I think skin is the most important thing when you do your make-up, because if you have nice skin, you will look good in any make-up.

What if she had to choose between giving up make-up and giving up chocolate? “It’s really hard to pick. But maybe I’m going to give up chocolate – for now,” she sighed.

While Park is the face of the Moonflash Cushion, which is used as a brightening base or highlighter, fellow YG label mate G-Dragon is the face of the Microfit Cushion, which is recommended for touch-ups. We put it to Park: Between her and G-Dragon, who’s prettier?

“Ah, it’s really hard!” she giggled. “He’s also baby-faced. And he’s really cute. But maybe it’s me, because I’m a girl and he’s a boy. I’m pretty; he’s handsome.”

And no, they don’t fight over who has better skin. But, she revealed, “He’s always teasing me about anything and everything. He’s really naughty. And he’s really funny.”

We’re not sure if they tease each other about their eyeliner, but that may be a moot point because Park predicts the next makeup trend will be the barely-there look. “I think nude make-up is really nice, and I think that will be the trend for this year – very natural make-up that looks like you don’t have make-up on,” she said.

And, with her new Moonflash Cushion, “everybody can look like me,” she laughed.

Even while eating chilli or pepper crab.

Interview: Harper’s Bazaar Singapore ~ “Beauty Talk: Sandara Park Shares her Skincare Secrets”

Must-read! They had some great, out-of-the-box questions for Dara and I really appreciated how they gave us a glimpse into her mind. I’m glad they didn’t stick to the usual beauty questions, despite what the title might suggest. ^^

BEAUTY TALK: SANDARA PARK SHARES HER SKINCARE SECRETS

Last week, international K-pop sensation Sandara Park (Dara, for short) was in town for the launch of Moonshot’s new products: the Microfit Cushion and the Moonflash Cushion. We sat down with the brand’s recently appointed ambassador to talk beauty must-haves, skincare secrets, and Instagram filters.

What’s the best beauty secret you’ve ever learnt? 

I found out that I can use the Moonflash Cushion not only as a highlighter but also as a make-up primer before using make-up.

What’s one make-up product you cannot live without? 

I’m using Moonshot’s UV bouncer everyday before applying my make up. Its like a sun block and at a same time, a make up primer – it’ll make you look even prettier.

How do you maintain your perfect skin?

Drink a lot of water and sleep a lot – that is really important. And positive energy!

What’s your favourite Instagram filter? 

Sierra.

What’s your favourite way to relax? 

I love being a tourist – I love trying out new things, new food and new places.

Name the place(s) in Singapore that you would love to see.

I want to go to Gardens By The Bay, Clarke Quay and The Merlion Statue.

Where in the world would you want to visit the most? 

Egypt.

If you could meet anyone, who would it be?

I want to meet my high school crush because I miss myself; the young innocent Dara.
