Cocona
The first time this photo appeared on my feed already left me in awe. It’s a refreshing take in an industry where colored and long, bouncy hairstyles are typically expected for girl idols. Cocona’s concept photo broke boundaries and challenged societal standards, showing that beauty can be defined in many ways. Cocona’s head was adorned with face paint resembling a tribal floral design, complemented by three metallic lines under her eyes and a fiery eyeliner to create a bold, striking glamour.

If we’re talking about floral in a futuristic tone, Maya embodies the look. Just take a moment to admire the constellation-like flowers formed in her pistachio-colored hair that almost blended into her strands. On the other hand, her makeup features pale coverage, with delicate face paint on forehead and a peach shade on her lips. The overall portrayal of the enchantress is a visual feast!

Maya @xgofficial Juria
Avant-garde we say! Juria sported her most mystical persona, leaving the fans flabbergasted by the beauty of tendrils on her dress, stretched all the way to her makeup. Her hair was styled in heavily sprayed hair curls, and butterfly inspired hair clips. One intriguing detail were the clips that resembled irises! She rocked otherworldly glamour, with green-hued palette for her lids and brows accentuated by a few strokes of peach blush and rosy lip shade that sharpened her expression.

Juria @xgofficial Harvey
Despite being surrounded by lilies, the flowers didn’t hide Harvey’s flawless complexion. This was achieved through the perfect combination of blended foundation, concealer, and powder. The emphasis on the glowing finish showcased the use of highlighter. For her eyeshadow, a neutral palette was on, creating a smokey eye effect. With colors primarily in light green, and shimmer on the lids.

Harvey @xgofficial Hinata
The explosive glance came from none other than one of the main dancers of the group, Hinata. She captivated us all with a blazing beauty statement, featuring a dragonfly above her nose as the focal point of her look. Hinata wore blue contacts and kept her blush muted to let the green parts in her makeup stand out. The expression of the mythical creature motif was executed wonderfully, and we can’t say anything more but excellency!

Chisa
Inspired by a vividly pink, stellar nature theme, Chisa wore a hairpiece with wings paired with a short bob hairstyle. What we love about her makeup is that it wasn’t overdone. The pastel color combination was applied carefully on her face, ensuring the pigments didn’t overwhelm. Even her lips were painted a more vibrant tone and it still complemented the feminine, mystique spirit.

Jurin
Red contact lenses symbolize the fiery energy that is cast upon everyone who looks at her. Jurin effortlessly flaunts the rich color of her hair, embracing a moth-inspired glam. She paired her style with a nose piercing, winged eyeliner that extends from the tips of her eyes up to the edges of her nose, and downward beneath her eyes. Her skin is flawless, perfectly prepped, and smooth. The look stuns without overpowering her natural beauty.
