In a conversation with Her World Singapore, Shin-hye revealed that cleansing is a big part of her skincare routine. After all, a clean palette is key to ensuring that your skincare and makeup sit seamlessly on your face. “For my face, I prefer a cleanser that is not too oily and doesn’t produce thick foam but it still has to be effective in getting rid of the dirt on my face,” she said. The actress equally stresses the importance of cleaning your face after removing makeup, which ensures you’re clear of all grime, dirt and residue.
Regular skin cleansing is critical to maintaining healthy-looking and feeling skin. Not only does it help you avoid clogged pores, but encourages hydration, stimulates blood circulation and protects against premature ageing.

If you were to look at Park Shin-hye’s travel skincare kit, you’d definitely find sunscreen, toner, lip tint and a cushion foundation packed without fail. Being the brand ambassador for Korean skincare brand Mamonde, The Judge from Hell star swears by their products for all her skincare needs.
She religiously uses the Mamonde Rose Water toner. “I’ll soak some cotton pads with the toner, chill them in the fridge then use them to cool down my skin and soothe rashes and redness,” she told Her World. On vacations, Park Shin-hye avoids slathering her face with too much makeup. So, on days like these, the Mamonde Cover Powder cushion and sunscreen come to her rescue. Lastly, she finishes her look with a lip tint as she likes the focus to be on her lips.
