ZEROBASEONE’s Ricky has always been loved for his princely looks. Compared to many others, his facial features are more prominent. From his sharp jaw, high nose and brow bone, to his thick double eyelids, all of these help make him look like the flower boy visual that he is!
His debut styling received much praise for helping his natural beauty shine. With minimal makeup and light coral tones, he looked gorgeous.
The stylist often only highlighted his lips, leaving his eyes and brows as they were.
With the group’s second release, fans began noticing that Ricky’s makeup was getting thicker. From heavily contoured features to thick eye makeup, he looked even more sculpted.
Many were not fans of the newly slanted eyebrows and colored lens.
Although the flashy look suits the group’s darker comeback concept, fans missed the old styling.
Many believed that less was more for the star.
Netizen comments. | theqoo This seems like the style that he wants for himself… Even during Boys Planet, he was always done up. He suits the “after” too, but the “before” looks way more handsome. I don’t know about the makeup, but the lens make a lot of difference. Wow, you can totally tell that it’s the Chinese style. When I look at Chinese TikTokers or influencers, all the girls have this style of makeup. It’s very thick and exaggerated and purposeful. I don’t know about the difference. He’s just handsome. He’s handsome so people are getting their guards up. Hwaiting. The “before” is also a little much, but he looks way better without the lens. It suits him because he’s Ricky. I don’t know what’s the difference… It’s the makeup style that I see often on Chinese TikTokers or celebrities. He suits flashy styles.
Ricky is well-known for the strict beauty standards that he imposes on himself. Even during Boys Planet, he never showed a less-than-perfect side of himself, always showing up with full makeup and his hair done. This led to fans wondering if the new styling is his own preference rather than the stylist’s!
