Neck Massage
Son Ye Jin shared a simple trick to reduce facial puffiness – gently massage the sides of your neck. This area, known as the “sternocleidomastoid” runs from behind the ears to the collarbone and is close to many lymph nodes. By gently massaging this area, you can effectively reduce swelling.
Triple-Cleansing Routine
The key to beautiful skin is deep cleansing. If your skin is not properly cleaned, any serums or treatments applied afterward will be less effective. Son Ye Jin’s routine includes triple cleansing with a cleansing balm, facial wash, and toner/lotion pad. You don’t need expensive products to achieve great results; simply choose skincare suitable for your skin type and concerns.

Choose skincare products that suit your skin type and concerns for effective results.
She opts for a specialized cleansing balm that optimally removes makeup and impurities. When applied to the skin, the balm transforms into a silky oil, gently melting away makeup and grime. Son Ye Jin also looks for cleansing balms infused with skincare benefits, such as vitamin C and botanical extracts, to nourish, soften, and brighten the skin.
For the second step, a gentle facial wash is key to removing any remaining cleansing balm and impurities. She chooses a product that leaves her skin feeling refreshed and comfortable, suitable for all skin types, especially dry and sensitive skin.
Finally, Son Ye Jin completes her routine by applying toner or lotion to a cotton pad or compressed mask sheet. These soft, essence-infused pads not only provide deep moisture but also help cleanse pores and strengthen the skin’s barrier.
Warm Towel Compress and Acupressure
After cleansing, when her skin is at its cleanest, Son Ye Jin applies a warm towel compress to her entire face. She then uses her fingers to gently press on acupressure points along the eyebrows, cheekbones, and jawline.

Ice-Cold Lemon Water Rinse
Son Ye Jin swears by this unusual tip: she soaks lemon slices in ice-cold water for about 15 minutes, then uses the lemon-infused water to rinse her face. This trick, she says, is her secret to flawless, pore-less skin.
