BLACKPINK member Rosé uses a very strict skincare routine. One of the things she uses is an oil and milk cleanser. Oil cleanser will help your skin balance oil production and has many anti-aging properties. Milk cleanser is also great for dry skin as it hydrates it. Plus, it is jam packed with antioxidants. She also uses many moisturizers which might be why her skin is glowing. In Korea it is very common to use sunblock as to prevent sun damage. The sun is thought to age the skin so Korean stars will use sunblock even in the winter. However, Rosé uses it lightly because too much will dull the skin.
Jisoo and Jennie go on similar skin care routines. Though it was stated by Jisoo that she likes chubby cheeks and will eat before she sleeps as to get chubby cheeks, which according to my mother, who has chubby cheeks, it is just genetic.
Jennie is also known for using a milk cleanser as shown on their show the BLACKPINK house.
