Actress Ji Ye-eun pulled back the curtain on her personal skincare routine — and the secret behind her bright, clear complexion is shockingly simple: consistent home care.

Appearing recently on comedian Ji Seok-jin's YouTube channel, Ji Ye-eun responded to compliments about her skin by saying, "I really take care of it diligently." She shared that she puts extra effort into moisturizing before bed: "I slather on lotion without holding back. I put on enough to make my face look shiny, then I go to sleep," she said with a laugh.

But it wasn't always smooth sailing. Ji Ye-eun said she often heard she had good skin as a child, but around age 20, she suddenly developed severe adult acne, which caused her major stress. "Back then, it was so hard I didn't even want to go out," she recalled.

She tried dermatology treatments, but going to a clinic alone didn't automatically solve everything. She realized that steady at-home habits mattered more, and even dermatologists emphasized the importance of home care.

At one point, Ji Ye-eun paused her activities due to health issues to focus on treatment. After steady care and recovery, she is now healthy and actively promoting again.
