Red Velvet’s Irene shocked fans by openly showing a huge pimple right before a music video shoot.

In the video, Irene points out a massive pimple on her chin, explaining how it started small but she popped it with a cotton swab. She didn’t hide it—instead, she showed it clearly on camera.

If you’re asking me what happened to my chin. I got a pimple. It wasn’t this big. It was really tiny, but like this, I popped it with a cotton swab…

Some fans shared their own makeup tips to help others achieve the same effect.

green concealer in very light, thin layers then go over it with a concealer that is close to your skin shade. That’s the technique

Nars pot concealer will do this if you apply it with a flat brush and then let it dry down for like 10m and then put on your foundation after or just leave it if you only wanna wear concealer
