The Makeup Remover, Volume 1

She might have the plainest face in the country . . . and that’s exactly why he wants her. Lee Yeon’s beloved webcomic is now available in English print for the first time.
Kim Yeseul has always heard that everyone glows up in college . . . so why does she feel like the least pretty college student ever?! All of her peers look flawless 24/7, but Yeseul has no idea how to apply makeup or style her hair, leaving her without a single shred of confidence in herself.
Enter Cheon Yuseong, the most sought-after makeup artist in Korea. He needs a model for an upcoming TV competition series, and he’s certain that Yeseul’s plain face is the perfect canvas to showcase his skills. Yeseul isn’t interested in fame or glory—she just wants to look pretty for once. But as Yeseul plunges face-first into the cutthroat world of cosmetics, she begins to question whether appearance really is everything.

Volume 1 collects episodes 1-14 of the webcomic The Makeup Remover.
