Hey Vogue!

It's Yin Chae and I'm gonna show you my skincare and my makeup look.

I wash my face first.

This is Anua.

I think this is my favorite cleansing foam.

Next, I'm gonna do toner.

Because I had acne growing up, I have a specific routine, skincare routine now.

And next is Corridone Serum.

I think I have like oily but also kind of dry.

In Korea, we call it so that's why I don't use any oily skincare products.

Next one is face cream.

Some of the other cat's eye, maybe I inspired them.

But also I think Korean skincare is pretty popular.

So they already knew before I told them.

Like they knew more than me actually.

Sunscreen is really important, but I used to hate putting the sunscreen on my face

because it's like it makes you oily and like it makes you uncomfortable

but now i have to put on my skin after we have show

or after we have heavy makeup even though i'm like super

tired i really have to remove all of my makeup like very very well

because i think one of the reasons you get acne it's

not about the products it's about the cleansing okay skincare done

let's do makeup i use this this is actually really good

our makeup artist andrew taught me how to do this this makes makeup stays

so much better and it like goes on better i introduced this to my friends

and my sister and they really liked it I'm so glad

that I have a sister because

if I didn't have my sister I would have done crazy makeup to go to school

because my sister would tell me less makeup is so much better

and like don't try to do too much because

because I don't know anything about makeup and

if i put like crazy lip color or crazy eyeshadow it'll be crazy next step is gonna be my foundation this foundation

right like this mix them this is very korean i feel like this is so much easier

i grew up in seoul until like two years ago

and i came to la to be in cat's eye yeah i didn't really know the english

that much i could only like understand a little bit i was actually k -pop trainee

when I was I was 12 I found out

that Hype is also like auditioning too I actually didn't really like realize

that I have to come to LA I was just

so excited to do something new my next step is this concealer and it's actually

salmon color i like to brightening this middle part so it looks i look a little snatched

when i was training in seoul for this program i usually had meeting like once a week with the team

and they were like wow you work so hard like you're a hard worker and i was like oh Oh, thank you.

And I was a little bit surprised because that's how I usually, how I usually do.

So I thought, I was like, okay, maybe then in America it'll be easy.

easier like the training would be easier and i went there

and actually it was very hard but i think

because i was a trainee i got used to it very quickly i'm gonna put lip balm on

because it's getting dry next is powder i use this huge brush to the powder

when we don't have like any important schedule an official schedule

i do my own makeup i used to do pink eyeshadow a lot

but recently i've been starting to do brown eyeshadow because

when i do pink eyeshadow and do blonde it like in la it looks a little bit too clean makeup.

I'm gonna do eyebrows.

I actually used to bleach my eyebrows too when I went blonde,

but now I'm a little bit lazy to do that.

So I've been just keeping this like brows.

And also when I had bleach brows, when I don't have makeup on and I looked crazy.

in korea i used to not do eyeliner and i used to just do eyeshadow with just like

contour and blush that's all but after i came here

when i did just eyeshadow and not eyeliner i looked like a baby

so i had to kind of mix the makeup with korean style here

so i started to do eyeliner and eyelash curl and mascara

and like a little bit more eyeshadow

so i learned a lot that's why after i came here i my makeup changed a lot

when i went back to korea and i met my friends

and my friends were like oh my gosh you're doing american makeup

and i was like what do you mean i'm doing the same makeup

so yeah i was surprised that my friends noticed right away okay my next step is eyeshadow

i just started to doing brown eyeshadow makeup so i actually don't really know how to do it correctly.

So sometimes I do it.

I start with brown makeup and I go back to pink another eyeshadow color makeup

because sometimes it looks a little bit not right.

I try to not do makeup when I'm not on schedule

because my skin needs a rest too

so I try to rest my skin at least once a week

but this week I couldn't my skin couldn't rest and that's why skincare is very important.

And I put like hard color

And I have to put dark eyeshadow under my eye Oh Actually looks good.

I have to curl my lashes and also I was so surprised.

I didn't know that some people doesn't have to curl their lashes Megan

or Danny doesn't have to curl her lashes

so I was like wow I'm so jealous because this curling lashes is very hard in Korea

because a lot of Korean loves to do their lashes very what I do is with like little stick

and I put lighter on and make it hot

and curl my lashes like this so it stays there

and it actually works when I go on stage I put fake lower lashes.

I do one curl, one mascara, and one curl, one mascara.

I like to do my lashes each one at a time because I think it stays better.

My next step is eyeliner.

I do black brown.

I fill in the waterline.

I look crazy.

and i'm gonna do line actual eyeline my family is in

seoul every time we have promo in korea i visit them

and also when we have a little bit of break i go to korea and also they come to la often

I learned about LA from only from movie so because I watched La La Land I love La La Land

so that's why when I came here I was like gosh I'm in La La Land and I was like wow

and I only knew that

100

and I didn't know anything about it like English too our our members taught me a lot

101

so and also our members are very talkative

102

so i think that's also made me um learn my english

103

so fast that was like pencil eyeliner and this is liquid eyeliner and i use so much that it's like breaking

104

this is actually a good palette because i can use everything and for nose contour i use this

105

i do it to look snatched because especially on camera

106

when i don't do contour i look a little bit empty

107

so when i'm on camera i do contour a lot

108

and i feel like especially nose contour is very important it can't be too hard

109

because it will look like i don't know it will look

110

like a little bit too serious i already look a little bit different I'm going to use this like,

111

oh you see it, there's one empty eyeshadow that I use so much.

112

And I have to draw egg outside.

113

It makes eyes look bigger and a little bit like cuter and it also helps look a little bit more sagged.

114

When I came here, no one does aegyoussail here, so I was very surprised, I was like, wait, no one does the aegyoussail?

115

And our members didn't know either, like some of our members knew,

116

but so I had to like show them because they were so interested.

117

When I go on stage or when I'm performing,

118

I don't do aegyousal because aegyousal makes me look a little bit cuter.

119

So like cat's eye is not a cute concept.

120

So our makeup artist doesn't like to do aegyousal to me.

121

i always ask because he's korean

122

so i always ask um can you do egg style for me like like he said

123

but he will always be like uh no just put a little bit color pink

124

next is blush i use this blush this color i use flat brush

125

and i put on the middle and like right under my eyes

126

I'm so excited to go on tour and it's our first arena tour

127

so very very very excited I'm so excited for this EP to come out

128

because I love all the songs and especially the song

129

that Lara wrote for us is very very good she gave me a line belting line belting singing vocal line

130

so I'm very excited to sing that song on tour

131

I love this feeling.

132

Putting highlighter on is the best part of makeup.

133

134

it looks like i got a filler

135

i found out this beauty tip after i debuted so i've been doing this overline

136

and a lot of people are saying that check out lip filler

137

you guys should try this too

138

because it actually works i'm stopping the rumor this is just a lip liner

139

and not the lip filler i actually watch youtube

140

when i do makeup and i just play it

141

and i listen to it the last thing i do is

142

this i used all of them during the beautiful chaos tour My makeup artist used this on me,

143

and I was like, this is so good.

144

Because some lip plumper makes your lips very dry,

145

but this one is not. And this one is,

146

I can't wear lip gloss when I'm performing because of the hair

What You'll Learn from Yoonchae's Routine

This video is a goldmine for IELTS speaking practice and everyday conversation skills. You’ll pick up how to describe personal routines fluently, using natural transitions like "next," "because," and "so." Yoonchae’s casual tone also teaches you to share personal stories—like her move from Seoul to LA or her trainee days—with clarity and warmth. These skills are key for speaking exams and real-life interactions, where explaining experiences and preferences is essential.

Listen For These Sounds

Pay attention to connected speech in the dialogue. Yoonchae often links words, like "gonna show" (instead of "going to show") and "it's like it makes" (where "it's" blends into "like"). She also uses reductions, such as "i'm" and "don't" without over-enunciating, which is typical in conversational English. Notice how she shortens "because" to "’cause" in phrases like "’cause I don't know anything about makeup"—this is a common pattern in native speech that makes your language sound more natural.

Say It Like a Native

To mirror Yoonchae’s rhythm, focus on stressing key words. In "I think this is my favorite cleansing foam," she emphasizes "favorite" and "cleansing foam" to highlight her preference. She also uses a relaxed pace, pausing slightly before sharing personal details (e.g., "I was 12... I found out that Hype is also auditioning"). This rhythm makes your speech easier to follow. For shadowing practice, repeat her lines aloud, matching her tone and pauses. Tools like a shadowing site can help you practice "shadowspeak"—mimicking native speakers to improve fluency. By copying her natural flow, you’ll learn to speak English with the same ease Yoonchae uses when sharing her beauty secrets.

Learning English with videos like this connects language to real life, making practice engaging and effective. Whether you’re prepping for an exam or just want to sound more like a native, Yoonchae’s routine offers practical, actionable tips to boost your speaking skills.

Grammar in this video

The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:

Structure	In the video
“Used to” used to + verb — a past habit or state that is no longer true	used to hate · used to do · used to bleach
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — an action that started earlier and is still going on	i've been starting · i've been doing

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
