This week's episode was super sweet and sentimental. It opened with a little photo montage of pictures sent in by the women in the studio audience of themselves when they were 20 (19 everywhere else). Most of the women, now in their 30's came to the studio to learn tips and tricks on how to be "Twenty Again". So this week's episode featured tutorials on how to get a youthful look so everyone could look and feel twenty again.
00:43 INTRO
Host Lee Hanui (with the yellow age measuring tape collared shirt lol) After watching this video I feel a bit nostalgic
Host Kim Jung Min (in white plaid) Are these photos of you in the audience?
Host Lee Hanui People who used to be 20 (polite way of referring to their age)
Male Host This means that you in the audience are no longer 20 amirite? Hosts and audience displeased / scold him.

Host Kim Jung Min Now that we're talking about being 20, everyone's expression looks "gamulgamul" a word that means your memory is flickering in and out weakly like a flame Everyone's like talking to themselves "wait, so what year was it that I was 20?" Miss Soyou (gray plaid suit) can you empathize with us?
Host Soyou (still really young) Of course I can't. Gets in trouble with the other hosts. So can you all accurately remember your life at 20?
Hosts No Host Lee Hanui *cries* :*(
Host Kim Jung Min taking hold of her yellow shirt collar Ok if 20's here Miss Hanui's age is... keeps going down the shirt collar, your age must be on the back somewhere right?
Baby photos of the hosts at 20 are shown onscreen around 3:00. There are some Cyworld (the Korean Myspace.com that also failed) profile photos, some school graduation photos.
Host Kim Jung Min Let's bring that period of life back to us. That youth, that freshness (word is putput). Shall we go back in time today everyone?
Audience Yes
Host Lee Hanui So let's bring out our special guest who will help us do that, Make Up Artist Kang Yun Jin
6:30 YOUTHFUL MAKEUP TUTORIALS BEGIN
07:20 MUA Kang Yun Jin Back when I was 20, I didn't really wear makeup. These days young girls tend to wear a lot more. I see smokey eye makeup a lot on young women. They don't know the natural beauty they already have because of their youth.
Audience shares amongs each other what it's like to not be 20 any more. 1 member says she knows the weather outside without looking at the weather forecast. Another talks about having switched from pink lip gloss to red lipstick and her increase in self-confidence.
The hosts invite audience members who are confident in their youthful makeup skills, 3 of them, to share their skills in a little competition.
11:25
From left to right, Girl 1 Kim Eun Ju will focus on creating dewy skin. Hosts nickname her "Gwang Girl"
Girl 2 Lee Woo Jin will focus on creating a rounder looking face and eyes.
Girl 3 Jun Soo Yun will focus on creating a natural, no-makeup look, like the one worn by actress Park Bo Young in most of her dramas and films.
The hosts decide that the girls' ages will be revealed after the contest is over. They'll create their looks in 20 minutes and the audience will vote on who did the best job.
2 of the 3 start off by applying facial oils to prep the skin. The third contestant puts essence and oil into her CC cushion compact. They ALL goes for straight eyebrows. Host Soyou notices that Girl 1 is using fall eyeshadow colors, Girl 2 is using pink/orange shimmer and bright blush, and Girl 3 has a ton of eyeshadow and a plumping lip gloss. Girl 3 insists that the plumping lip gloss helps to cover lines on the lips. Girl 2 sticks with her plan of creating round eyes by flicking her eyeliner downwards instead of upwards. MUA Kang Yun Jin cautions everyone to not be too intense about the downward pointing eyeliner because it could unintentionally look very Japanese gyaru - esque. Girl 1 is highlighting her under eye area along with the area above her eyebrows to give those areas more volume. MUA Kang Yun Jin cautions everyone to find a highlighter shade that doesn't stand out too much against the skin tone. Girl 2 is shading her hairline. When asked, MUA Kang Yun Jin confirms that a rounder hairline does give a more youthful look to the face. Lol Girl 3 gets some lip gloss on her forehead and everyone harps on how 20 that is. After the vote, Girl 2 wins.
MUA KANG YUN JIN'S YOUNG 'GWANG' MAKEUP TUTORIAL
22:55 Young means young, and Gwang means dewy. The hosts joke around that this reminds them of a hymn "Glory Glory Hallelujah" because Young Gwang also meand Glory.
The main steps/points used were:
1. Use a hydrating toner or "skin" on a cotton pad all over the face to prime for makeup. She follows with a moisturizing sunscreen. Her tip is to make sure it is completely absorbed.
2. She uses a non-mattifying primer with some reflectiveness / pearl to prime the face.
3. She mixes the primer into the CC cushion compact to make the makeup more long-lasting. Then the MUA applies it on the model with a gentle, circular patting motion.
4. Instead of using a blush, the MUA mixes a pink-red liquid lipstick with some CC cream from the cushion compact to create a medium rose pink cream blush to use on the model. Using this little concoction, she applies it just beneath the eyes (with a sponge), ABOVE the apples of the cheeks - mimicking the new "me no shita chiiku" hangover makeup trend from Japan.
5. She then shades the jawline with a darker contour shade. Her tip is to use a tapping motion instead of a sweeping motion.
6. She shapes the eyebrows into "Il-Ja (1-Ja) brows, meaning they're straight and not too long across. Her tip is to brush the brows, then fill in blank spots with a pencil, and use a brow mascara that is just a shade lighter than the brow hairs.
7. She mixes an eye primer with cream eyeshadow to make the eye makeup last longer. She applies this light brown shade she's just created onto the mobile lid with her fingers. She lines the eyes with a burgundy-toned brown eyeliner.
8. Instead of using a mascara, she takes the same burgundy-toned brown eyeliner, which was a gel liner onto an eyebrow brush, and uses that on the lashes.
9. The last step is to use a peachy pink lip gloss.
Her last piece of advice was to instead of trying to achieve a perfect pale complexion, women shouldn't be afraid of color and should try to bring it in to their looks.
I skipped the Talking Mirror section with actress Hwang Seung Un.

BLIND TEST : MASCARAS
The blind test segment is a regular feature of the show, where the hosts and the audience test a handful of products from the same makeup class, today's is mascara, and votes on which products were best, force ranking them. Here are the results from yesterday's show.
1. Clinique Lash Power Mascara $16.50 at Nordstrom
2. Missha M Super Extreme PowerProof Mascara $12 at MisshaUS
3. Benefit Roller Lash Mascara $12-24 at Sephora
4. Lancome Grandiose Mascara $32 at Sephora
So that's it for today's episode! Did you learn anything new? Will you try hangover makeup for yourself? I've tried it with an orangey-coral blush before and that was NOT a good look. I recommend using pink if you're going to give it a go.
Also, Korean Thanksgiving is this weekend. That means you'll hear crickets if you try and contact the Korea based stores. This season is much like our holiday season at the end of the year. BUT the silver lining is that there are a bunch of sales going on that you can take advantage of. I'll try to get them up tonight or tomorrow morning!
