Thai actress Lingling Kwong, who skyrocketed to fame in the hit drama “The Secret of Us”, has captivated fans with her stunning on-screen presence – and her flawless, glowing skin. Dreaming of that same radiant look? Below, some tips and tricks

Sunscreen

Rather than focusing on whitening, the key is achieving an even, clean-looking complexion. Consistent sun protection and basic hydration are essential. Proper sunscreen use lays the foundation for any brightening routine. Without it, other efforts have little impact. Opt for lightweight, non-irritating formulas that help keep the skin calm and stable day to day.

Exfoliation

If you’re diligent with sunscreen but your skin still looks dull, the issue may be a buildup of dead skin cells. Gentle exfoliating acids, such as low-strength AHAs, used once or twice a week can help smooth the skin’s surface and restore clarity without causing irritation.

Vitamin C

Ingredients like vitamin C are widely recognised for their brightening benefits. Rather than layering multiple actives at once, choosing one or two ingredients that suit your skin type and using them consistently is both safer and more effective in the long run.

Makeup

Makeup can also enhance the appearance of brighter skin. Focus on thorough hydration before makeup and subtle, targeted highlighting. Start with a lightweight, hydrating base, then softly apply highlighter to areas like the cheekbones and bridge of the nose. By concentrating light where it naturally hits, the complexion appears fresh, clean, and naturally radiant.
