With an angelic face like hers, it&#x27;s quite hard to imagine how well she plays dark roles like this. </p><div><br/></div><p>We did a little digging, and according to <a href="https://www.allkpop.com/article/2021/11/song-hye-kyo-reveals-that-washing-her-face-with-milk-is-the-secret-to-her-flawless-skin#:~:text=The%20actress%20revealed%20that%20she,maintain%20clear%20and%20clean%20skin." target="_blank">AllK-Pop</a>, one of Hye-kyo&#x27;s best skincare practices is washing her face with milk. She reveals that it&#x27;s the last step in her cleansing routine, wherein she warms up milk and directly applies it onto her face to help remove dead skin cells, which also penetrates deep into the skin to maintain clean and clear skin. She knows that Cleopatra was up to something good when she took milk baths thousands of years ago!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/a96223d1-2122-4896-aa53-82c6e2bfdc23_275006265_971702413719893_853931905719163021_n.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Song Hye-kyo is known for her porcelain skin<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> @kyo1122  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/beauty/makeup/song-hye-kyo-evolution-then-and-now/32041" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Then And Now: 25 Years Of Song Hye-Kyo’s Arresting Beauty</a></div><p>It also appears that Hye-kyo is the basics kind of gal. In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHUbmwtTCXA" target="_blank">SCMP video</a>, she shares that she starts her skincare routine with Concentrated Ginseng Water, then moves onto essence, then cream, then like most Korean women, she finishes her routine off with a sheet mask. On days off, she also likes getting facials. </p><div><br/></div><p>While she looks really skinny in &#x27;The Glory&#x27;, a factor she had to consider while playing the part, Hye-kyo is known to keep an eye on her health habits. Apart from her skincare routine, she also gives emphasis to the importance of working out as she ages. She says she notices her skin looks better when she moves and sweats, so she tries to do yoga and run along the Han River as often as she could. This simply tells us that while she is blessed with beautiful genes, she doesn&#x27;t take it for granted and also puts much effort into maintaining her skin and figure.
