Jinyaa's lavender monolid makeup idea: five gentle eye-makeup options
A flexible purple-eye look inspired by Korean creator Jinyaa's August 2026 short, without treating any eye shape or celebrity tag as a universal rule.
Korean beauty creator Jinyaa published a two-minute-seven-second short on August 17, 2026 titled roughly 'When a monolid beauty fan falls for lavender makeup'. The title includes #Sunmi and #SunmiMakeup, but **a hashtag does not mean the singer performed, sponsored or officially collaborated on this tutorial**. These five practical suggestions are an independent interpretation of the Korean creator's lavender theme rather than a transcription of the video. The full original video was not independently played through to verify every cosmetic, shade, sponsorship or gesture. Adapt the area and intensity to your eyes and preference, whether or not you have a visible eyelid crease.

01
Check that the color is intended for your eyes
Try an eye-labeled light lavender or muted purple shadow you already own. Do not repurpose lip-only products or pigments not indicated for eye use. No lavender undertone is automatically ideal for every complexion.
-
02
Keep preparation gentle and tools clean
Wash hands and brushes, and skip eye makeup during swelling, inflammation or irritation. Keep regular moisturizing and daytime sun protection without piling unfamiliar products on your eyelids.
-
03
Build a small wash of lavender first
As an everyday editorial adaptation, start with a tiny amount of soft lavender on the outer eyelid and blend the edge. Check the look with your eyes open; the visible area varies with individual eye shape, so copying a creator pixel-for-pixel is unnecessary.
-
04
Make liner and shimmer optional
If desired, draw short lines near the outer upper lashes using eye-approved liner. Choose shimmer only when explicitly suitable for the eye area and keep particles away from the eye surface. Avoid the inner waterline.
-
05
Balance cheeks or lips and check hygiene
Use a little of a comfortable neutral lip color or blush, or skip both. Look in everyday light and check for any irritation. Never share mascara or thin dry mascara with water; remove eye makeup gently before bed.

✦ Helpful tips
- The original Korean creator, August 17 2026 publication date and 2:07 duration were checked against public video metadata. All five steps are independent editorial adaptations, not claims of exact on-screen techniques.
- The source title's Sunmi hashtag does not prove celebrity participation, sponsorship, official makeup work or specific product use.
- Eye shapes and skin tones vary; no single monolid look is a standard of Korean beauty.
ⓘ Keep in mind
- FDA advises keeping eye cosmetics and tools clean, never sharing them, and avoiding eye makeup when eyes are inflamed or infected.
- Keep products not intended for the eye area away from eyes. Stop if redness, pain or irritation develops and seek medical attention if it continues.
