Korean celebrities’ winter skincare

So, another celebrity story?

But why not? I haven’t had enough of how those unusual creatures manage those fair complexion, dewy texture and most of all, bright and youthful vibe from their face.

Here are some of the tips shared by actresses or actors for their winter skincare.

Change the lifestyle

It is a very famous story that Miss Korea pageant-turned-actress Go Hyungjung does not turn the heater on when she is in a car. “It is like taking off skin tissue from your face and throwing it away,” she said on a TV program. That may sound harsh, given the extremely cold weather. But look at her face – the youthful, glowing face. You may wanna give that a shot.

According to BNT News, actress Lee Yeon-hee, known for her fair complex, prioritizes blood circulation in order to have fair and even complex. Yoga helps that a lot, she said.

Model-turned-actress Byun Jung-soo said in a TV program that she massages her body with thick sugar and coconut oil mix when bathing, so that it could remove dead skin cells from the body. “I also try to try to avoid eating fastfoods,” she said.

Simplify

Son Dae-sik and Park Tae-yoon, celebrated makeup artist mostly famous for pampering Gianna Jun for the “My love from the stars”, said in their interview with Hankyoreh newspaper that the key to keeping the skin moist and bright is not to cleanse thoroughly during winter.

“Leave your skin alone sometime. Sometimes thorough cleansing can hurt your skin,” Son said.

“Instead of cleansing the face, apply face cream and then gently wipe it away with cotton pad. Then follow our regular morning routine,” said Park.

The duo also advised that people start their routine with liquid and finish with denser texture – for example, from toner to emulsion and then to oil.

Actress Lee Young-ae, the ultimate beauty, also stressed that simplicity in skincare routine. “I only apply moisturizing cream and camellia emulsion. That’s all I need for now,” she said in another TV program.
