"This research is situated in the context where the influence of the Korean Wave (Hallyu) and the idols serving as cultural ambassadors of the country are changing conventional attractiveness standards across the globe. By applying Stuart Hall's theory of representation and establishing connections with the dissemination of Korean beauty products in the Indonesian market, this article examines the messages within the ads of these idols which may influence the reframing the concept of conventional beauty in the Indonesia. The research focuses on three local products that use K-Pop idols to represent the ideal beauty: Cha Eun-woo as the ambassador for MS Glow, Han So Hee who represents Somethinc, and TWICE who is supporting Scarlett Whitening. The main argument asserts that the aesthetic appeal of these idols, serving as brand representatives, conveys messages that have the potential to alter Indonesian beauty standards. The study is conducted through descriptive qualitative observation of the three mentioned product advertisements on Instagram. Findings and discussions reveal the intricate relationship between media representation, brand endorsements, and the potential for changing beauty standards embraced by social media users who are fans of these idols.

"Women spend an extraordinary amount of money on cosmetics--$45 billion a year in the U.S. alone. Now in its fourth edition, Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me strikes fear in cosmetics-counter consultants everywhere. First off, Begoun has deconstructed ingredient lists. Ever wonder what methylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben are doing in your mascara? And what is diazolidinyl urea? All four are potential irritants, and the latter is a preservative that can release formaldehyde, a class A carcinogen. Buyer beware. Begoun also lists which companies are cruelty-free and which continue to conduct animal testing. The majority of the book--and that's nearly 800 pages--is devoted to reviews of thousands of cosmetics, from cleansers, foundations, alpha-hydroxy acids, and moisturizers to lip liners, eye shadows, and concealers, all of which Begoun has personally tested. (There are no hair care products listed, as that warrants another book Don't Go Shopping for Hair Care Products Without Me.)She's perfectly frank and tells it like it is. (On Revlon's ColorStay "goes far beyond the claim of 'It won't come off on him.' It won't come off when you want it to.") You'll learn how to tell when you're being boondoggled by a salesperson, what's overpriced and overhyped, as well as what's overlooked. More than 200 brands are included, along with a helpful summary at the end that lists the best products for each cosmetic category. It should be noted that not only is Begoun a fine consumer advocate, she's also a self-esteem she mentions time and again that even the best cosmetics won't necessarily improve your life, and that's a point well taken."
