Lee Hi Front MAC Cosmetics Future Forward Campaign alongside Justine Skye & Dua Lipa!

This spring and summer, beauty purveyor MAC Cosmetics is unleashing the next round of its Future Forward campaign with an international trio of rising singers; Justine Skye, Dua Lipa and Lee Hi.

Closing out the collection on June 29, is K-Pop star Lee Hi, who after taking a three-year hiatus is back on the scene with upcoming music and a deep red matte lipstick ($17; maccosmetics.com), inspired by the reds she wears every day. “I wanted to make a red lipstick that is on-trend and wearable, and I wanted the color to be provocative, yet very feminine and girly.”

BILLBOARD: How has your beauty philosophy shifted since your first experience wearing makeup?

LEEHI: When I first started to use makeup at 15, I would imitate my mom and older sister. However, I often wore the wrong foundation shade, ugly lip colors and had very unwieldy brows. I think experimenting with makeup early on is important because you can figure out what works for you and what doesn’t. The process of finding the right colors and how to wear them is really fun. On stage, I enjoy vivid color lips like purple or red and glitter on my eyes, but in daily life, I keep my look more natural.

BILLBOARD: What role does makeup play in representing who you are as an artist?

LEE HI: I always consider how it [makeup] looks from different angles, under the intense lighting on stage and if it works with my outfit. The audience resonates with artists by listening to their music, but they also find inspiration by watching an artist’s music videos and performances. I use different makeup looks to complement my new songs.

LEE HI: Tell us about your everyday makeup routine.

After prepping my skin, I use foundation and cover dark spots with concealer, then use a brush for shading powder. For my eyebrows, I use a pencil to fill them in and set with a clear brow gel. Then I contour the nose with very light shading color and put on the blush, which will always match my dress color. To blur the edge of my lip line, I use the leftover foundation from my face puff. Sometimes I put on MAC’s Lightscapade Highlighter on the edge of my nose, upper cheek, chin and philtrum (Cupid’s bow) and add a gloss to make my lips look full and moisturized.

LEEHI: What about when you’re going out?

I love a dark, smoky look with false lashes and then finish with a nude lip, usually MAC’s lipstick in Peachstock.

LEEHI: Last year you released your sophomore project Seoulite which has a more mature sound compared to your solo debut album. Now that it’s 2017, what can your fans look forward to next?

2016 was a great year. Releasing Seoulite three years after my debut album showed my musical leap. For 2017, I am working on something that I can’t reveal as of yet, however, my fans can know that I will continue doing the producing and songwriting.

CODE KUNST ft. LOCO & MINO - Str0ngerrr [ENG TRANS]!

(A: CODE KUNST | C: CODE KUNST & MINO | L: LOCO & MINO)

[LOCO] When the air I breathed originated from the very bottom
When even after sleeping really well in the basement of a basement
I would have phlegm stuck in my throat
In the recording room, a manager of a comedian fixed my rap
My first showcase
When wanting to wear clothes, I wanted to wear what’s a bid deal
Show me the money, show me the money
I never wanted light
I had never properly earned money
So I said i’ll give 100,000 won to the company to perform
After they rejected the stage, I heard “Has Loco become such a superstar”
When I said I’ll leave to find a new company
They told me to pay 2 billion for penalty for breach of contract
As you know, I still don’t know how they settled half of that
My mother may have begged on her knees
Now, I wear what I choose to wear
And breathe the air of the stage
My recording studio is the smallest room in my house
It seems like it became really sturdy already
There’s no chance of anyone getting a piece of me
Now, when they want me to perform somewhere,
They say, “I’ll put 100,000 won in your hand, take it”

[MINO] I’m gonna be stronger than Hercules
Never die like a zombie
Who dares to stop me
Because I’m a gold calf
Because i’m a gold calf

[MINO] I’m gonna be stronger than Hercules
Never die like a zombie
Who dares to stop me
Because i’m a gold calf
Because I’m a gold calf

[MINO] I was born and my family was poor
Even when I appeared on TV, nothing really changed
When I woke up, there was a bug next to me
All I ate was tofu and yogurt
One time, my member hyung who ate the same things as me
ordered pizza that made me more excited than a woman would
Because of those days in the past, I earn more money
As you know, I got scared sometimes
8 words of ballad rap
I can imagine how embarrassed I was
When I wore knee pads for our first stage on MTV
You never know, know ooh
You can just look at my happy self
My wrist that I thought about cutting
Now they’re protected by expensive watches
Thanks to Reality (alcohol) that I drank without any snacks
I throw up everyday
I say cheers again for everyone who patted my back

[MINO] I’m gonna be stronger than Hercules
Never die like a zombie
Who dares to stop me
Because I’m a gold calf
Because i’m a gold calf

[MINO] I’m gonna be stronger than Hercules
Never die like a zombie
Who dares to stop me
Because i’m a gold calf
Because I’m a gold calf

CODE KUNST ft. G.Soul & TABLO - Fire Water [ENG TRANS]!

(A: Code Kunst | C: Code Kunst & G.Soul | L: G.Soul & Tablo)

[GS] Oh no, the more time passes
Like a black hole, there’s no existence
We’re getting deeper, girl, baby
Like in the middle of space with no oxygen
We’re going somewhere, somewhere
The words we hear are like gravity
Trapping us but we’re like

[GS] Fire in the water
We are burning wild and free
Just me and you, me and you
Fire in the water,
they know nothing ‘bout our love
Just me and you, just me and you
Fire in the water

[T] Uh Have you ever loved someone to death?
Even if we become ashes, we won’t cool down
I promised myself but time is the true test
In fact,
Before the fire dies, anyone is the perfect match
Anytime we were lit, we gave off, sometimes light, sometimes anger
Now that I look back
now I can see that is why
Saying that we were being burned by each other
Satirizes how much we loved each other
Guess it can’t be helped
Always a dissonance, this cruel lullaby
Let’s just stop
Aren’t you sick of it too?
I made the bed for you
You can ZZZ in peace

[GS] Fire in the water
We are burning wild and free
Just me and you, me and you
Fire in the water,
they know nothing ‘bout our love
Just me and you, just me and you
Fire in the water

[T] Memories of lighting our bodies and hearts on fire
As hot as it is, I can’t touch it
Memories of the past become white like ash
Scattering around this city like snowflakes
Have you ever loved someone to death?
Have you ever loved someone to death?
All it was, was the promise to love you to death becoming reality
But it’s hard to let go

[GS] Fire in the water
We are burning wild and free
Just me and you, me and you
Fire in the water,
they know nothing ‘bout our love
Just me and you, just me and you
Fire in the water

GALLANT X ERIC NAM X TABLO - CAVE ME IN [LYRICS]!

(L: Gallant, Tablo, Eric Nam & T. Accord | A&C: Lophiile)

[T] You got me feeling like

Ohh You get me liftin like..

Let’s Go.

[G] these flies on my window
are winners in a losing game

dip duck roll and hover
they barely see a season change
while you and me live like
birds on a power line,
hands slipping and our fingers fried,
god bless those northern lights
and our own devices babe–
entropy multiplies,
clock’s ticking and i’m mortified
cause in the back of my mind,
in the back of my hemisphere:

[G] baby i want you to cave me in
so maybe i won’t have to admit it
baby i want you to cave me in
so maybe i won’t ask to forget it

[T] LOVE HAS EITHER GOT YOU OVER HEELS
OR OVERDOSED
IT’S GOT YOU OFF YOUR FEET
OR ON YOUR TOES
IT’S GOT YOU OUT YOUR SEAT
OR IN YOUR PLACE
IT’S GOT YOU DIGGIN’ IT
OR YOUR GRAVE
LOVE HAS GOT YOU MAD ABOUT
OR JUST ABOUT MAD
GOT YOU IN A CRUSH
OR IT’S GOT YOU IN A CRASH
WHAT USED TO MAKE YOUR HEART SING A HIT, SING A SMASH
WILL MAKE YOU WANNA HIT, WANNA SMASH
EVERYTHING THAT YOU HAD INTO PIECES
BUT LOVE BECOMES CLEAR WHEN IN PIECES
WHAT YOU COULDN’T SEE AND HEAR DURING PEACE IS
WHY A HEART BECOMES EARS IN TWO PIECES

[E] Gravity makes wonders,
but it also doesn’t seem to wait.
Float like clouds on water,
waves across an open plane.

[E] Cause you and me live like.
Birds on a power line,
hands slipping and our fingers fried,
god bless those northern lights
and our own devices babe,
entropy multiplies,
clock’s ticking and i’m mortified,
cause in the back of my mind,
in the back of my hemisphere,

[G] baby i want you, to cave me in,
so maybe i won’t have to admit it,
baby i want you, to cave me in,
so maybe i won’t ask to forget it

[E&G] i want it i do,i want it i do,
i want it i do do do do
i want it i do
do ooh yea, i, ooh yea i do.
