Song Hye Kyo possesses flawless skin that has remained beautiful throughout the years. She shares that she enjoys taking care of her skin using natural ingredients found in her kitchen. It is these natural face masks that help her achieve a beautiful and radiant complexion.
Egg and honey acne-fighting mask
Eggs are not only good for health but also for beauty. They have the ability to reduce wrinkles and effectively whiten the skin. Song Hye Kyo combines egg whites with honey to create this mask. Honey contains a large amount of antioxidants and natural antibacterial properties, making it an excellent facial cleanser. It helps remove excess oil from the pores and reduce blackheads on the skin.
Evenly apply the mixture onto the face for 20 minutes or until dry, then rinse with clean water. Repeat 2-3 times a week before bedtime.
Carrot anti-aging mask
Carrots are not only rich in fiber but also contain many vitamins, beta-carotene, and antioxidants. Carrots, when combined with egg whites and yogurt, will improve moisture and fight signs of aging while protecting against sun damage.
Prepare 3 parts of grated carrots and 2 parts of flour (you can use rice flour or rice bran instead). Mix well, apply on the face for 20 minutes, then rinse with clean water. Repeat 2-3 times a week before bedtime.
Milk cleansing
Fresh milk contains many nourishing and moisturizing components that give the skin a radiant and youthful appearance. Notably, fresh milk also contains a lot of Vitamin A and B, which stimulate the skin to produce collagen, increasing elasticity and reducing wrinkles on the skin. The nutrients in fresh milk will soothe and reduce irritation for sunburned skin.
The method is simple. Wash your face as usual, soak a cotton pad in milk, then apply evenly on the face. Massage the face for 2-3 minutes, then rinse with clean water. Repeat 3-4 times a week.
Ice cube massage
Massaging the face with a cold ice cube immediately after cleansing will help tighten pores and improve blood circulation beneath the skin, giving you a bright and rosy complexion. The ability to absorb nutrients when applying serums or moisturizers also increases significantly after an ice cube massage.
Wrap the ice cube in a soft cloth, massage in circular motions on the T-zone or any area with enlarged pores to tighten them.
