Go Yoon Jung’s beauty tips

The moment Go Yoon Jung’s company unveiled her profile picture, everyone was left in awe of her mesmerising beauty – a true testament to just how stunning this Korean star truly is.

Go Yoon Jung’s “7 skin” method

Though the adage suggests “less is more,” Go Yoon Jung firmly believes that religiously following this intensive seven-step routine is the key to her flawless and healthy skin.

Go Yoon Jung initiates her routine by applying a clay mask, effectively purging her face of accumulated gunk, sebum, and oils, especially after hectic days.

After thoroughly cleansing her face, she proceeds to apply the first layer of toner, using either cotton pads or her fingers for even distribution, ensuring that every nook and cranny receives attention – a necessity, given her job requires her to wear full-face makeup frequently.

This process is then repeated six more times, before moving on to serums and eye cream, to brighten up her dark spots and address impurities.

Though she doesn’t specify the products she uses, Go Yoon Jung insists on selecting only delicate and gentle options for her skin, steering clear products containing sulfates, parabens, or harmful chemicals.

Bae Suzy’s beauty tips

Bae Suzy has undeniably become a household name, and her recent comeback in Korea’s romantic comedy film Doona! has once again reminded all of us why she was given the title of “nation’s first love”.

Aside from her exceptional talent, the star of While You Were Sleeping is renowned for her stunning looks and flawless skin, and her secret lies in an extensive cleansing regimen!

Bae Suzy’s “424” cleansing method

To begin, the Uncontrollably Fond star uses an oil-based cleanser for four minutes, massaging her face to effectively remove impurities and makeup.

These gentle strokes not only purify the skin but also tone the facial muscles, contributing to a healthier and more youthful appearance.

After the four-minute oil massage, Suzy proceeds to wash her face with a foaming cleanser. Just like with the oil cleansing, she dedicates two minutes to massage her face, ensuring any leftover makeup residue is thoroughly removed, leaving her skin fresh and clean.

Finally, she concludes the “424” cleansing method with a four-minute water rinse. During this step, she uses warm water to cleanse her face for two minutes, followed by a final two-minute rinse with cold water.

The cold water rinse serves two purposes – closing and tightening the pores after the warm water splash and stimulating blood circulation, further enhancing her complexion.
