Joey King suffers facial burns in cooking accident, shares blistered photos
Joey King is recovering after a cooking accident left her with multiple blisters on her face and neck. The
Kissing Booth
actress revealed the incident on Instagram, sharing close-up photos of the burns.
'I burned myself a few days ago by throwing shallots into a pan of hot oil,' King wrote in her post. Her mother responded with humor, saying, 'See, that's why I hate cooking.'
Despite the painful injuries, King remains positive. This isn't her first skin struggle—she has also been open about her battle with perioral dermatitis, a condition that causes small red bumps around the mouth, nose, and eyes.
Last year, King shared her ongoing skincare challenges, revealing that she had stopped using prescription treatments but was unsure how to manage flare-ups.
King's latest mishap has prompted her to prioritize kitchen safety, emphasizing the importance of proper handling of hot oil. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, first-degree burns can cause pain and scarring if not treated correctly. She appears to be following recommended treatments, including cool water, petroleum jelly, and sun protection.
Although King recently experimented with bold beauty changes—including dyeing her eyebrows for a magazine party, which her mother disapproved of—her focus now is on healing from her burns. Fans have flooded her comments with well wishes, hoping for a speedy recovery.

Muneeb preaches kindness to animals this Eidul Azha
In a recent Instagram Story, Muneeb Butt shared a video clip of a camel hastily fleeing a busy neighbourhood. "Yes, this happened yesterday," Muneeb wrote, adding that he checked the CCTV footage to confirm what happened prior to the escape. "Some kids were throwing little stones at this poor animal. He broke his cord and ran," he explained. With Eidul Azha just around the corner, the Shiddat actor implored, "Please, teach your kids how to interact with sacrificial animals." Netizens nodded along to Muneeb's statement, agreeing on the importance of treating animals with respect and kindness prior to the slaughter ritual on Eid. One Instagram user asserted that the sentiment should apply even beyond Eid: "Not just sacrificial animals, but with all animals. Raise your children with empathy towards the creation of Allah. It breaks my heart when I see children treating these innocent souls brutally." Another added, "Parents should teach their kids about animal rights." Sacrificial animals have been the talk of the town as of late, since earlier, Alizeh Shah urged netizens to be more sensitive and not share content of animals being slaughtered online. "Every year, I see so much pain on the roads – blood, fear in the eyes of animals, their cries – and my heart breaks," she said, stressing that while animals may not speak, they do have feelings. "They love, they nurture, they form bonds – just like we do. They were created by the same loving God who created us, and to see them suffer so publicly, often with pictures, jokes, and memes shared on social media – it's something I personally find very difficult to digest," she admitted. Alizeh acknowledged that people's intentions are often pure and reverent when it comes to observing religious sacrifice. She emphasised that she does not oppose the act of sacrifice itself, but instead hopes for some empathy this Eidul Azha. Requesting her followers to make this Eid more about the spirit of humility, the Taqdeer actor added, "If it's possible, please be mindful of the images and videos shared online. Some of us are deeply affected by them," she wrote. "Islam teaches mercy, compassion, and dignity – for humans and for animals." Alizeh added that anyone is free to disagree with her, but it personally pains her to watch the animals in such a state. "You may disagree and that's okay. I respect all views," she wrote. "But I had to say this because the silence has been heavy on my heart."
