Believe it or not, actress and model Lee Sung Kyung doesn't have the best skin! Due to the nature of her work, her skin sometimes has dark spots and harsh lines.
But she wants her fans, especially young ones, to know that intricate and complicated skin care routines might do more harm than good. Here's some basic tips to follow to have healthy looking skin!
Discover Yourself and Products That Work
Lee Sung Kyung emphasized that people's skins vary and what works for her might not work for everyone.
With that, she encourages people to find the best products that work for them. But if she has to recommend one thing to never forget? It's sunscreen!
It's common knowledge that the UV rays are harmful to the skin as it can cause premature skin aging. A good sunscreen is absolutely essential and Lee Sung Kyung never leaves the house without it!
When choosing makeup products, Lee Sung Kyung says to choose the ones that have less chemicals and that can put all efforts in taking care of the skin to waste.
Opt for hydrating and moisturizing products with sheer to medium coverage to achieve a natural look.
Embrace the Sweat
While most people hate the blazing heat of the sun and the sticky sweat that comes with it, Lee Sung Kyung actually urges her fans to sweat the beautiful bodies out!
Since South Korea is deliberately a colder country, she goes to the sauna to help her sweat her body's toxins out.
If you're living in a humid or tropical country, then good for you! There's no need to go to the sauna to sweat the icky unwanted things from your body.

Guasha Is Her Best Friend
Lee Sung Kyung also recommended a much more traditional way to detoxify the face.
By giving it a good massage, all the puffiness will go away by the gentle massage and tapping motions, which contribute to the contouring of the face.

This classic guasha massage also helps to a smooth product application. To do this, simply knead the sides of your face and focus on applying pressure to the points at the side of the jaws, and inner and outer corner of the eyes.
Less Is More, Lips or Eyes?
To protect the skin from being overwhelmed by chemicals and makeup products, she applies the "legs or cleavage" rule to her lips and eyes!
She suggests choosing one between lipstick and eyeshadow. By doing this, the overall appearance won't create an "all-out look," especially for an everyday look.
On the other hand, the actress and model returns to the small screen with a new drama "Shooting Stars" alongside Kim Young Dae this April 22! Watch the drama teaser here:
