Joey King revealed she suffered facial burns after cooking shallots.

The actress shared on her Instagram stories Tuesday morning that she threw ‘shallots into a pan of H๏τ oil’ – which led to her getting splashed by the H๏τ oil and burned.

Joey also said that immediately after burning herself, she called her mom, who told her: ‘”see that’s why I hate cooking,”‘ – which Joey relayed to her Instagram followers.

The actress, 25, shared four close up images of her burned face and neck – with one bare picture of the burns after it happened, another with what appears to be honey which can help healing and reduce inflammation, one a few days later as the burns healed, and a picture of her using some sort of ointment on it.

Joey’s cooking mishap comes two months after she said she was ‘proud’ of herself for cooking a pecan pie for Thanksgiving, in images she shared to her Instagram page.

Earlier this month, Joey bleached her eyebrows blonde, which she revealed she did because she wanted to try ‘something different,’ she said on her Tik Tok.

Joey talked about her bleached brows in her Tik Tok video she shared earlier this month.

The actress said: ‘I dyed my eyebrows like a week ago. They were like white before and now they just look like the Lorax mustache.’

‘But I kind of love it. But then I saw my mom two days ago and she was like, “I just can’t look at you. You look so weird,”‘ Joey recalled.

‘Guys, I know I look weird. That’s the point. I was like, “Mom, that’s the point. The point is that I’m trying something different. I’m gonna dye them back but just let me have this.’

Joey is good friends with superstar Sabrina Carpenter, with the duo having been pals for years. 

The stars met at a charity event initially, but they didn’t immediately become friends.

‘Sabrina came over and was like, “hi, I’m Sabrina! What’s funny is we weren’t always super close. For the first several years of our friendship, we would hang out like once every year and it was the funniest thing in the world, we don’t know why it took us so long to become as close as we are now,’ Joey told Wired in July 2020.

From then on, which Joey noted took place ‘many years ago’ the duo have been inseparable.
