She went viral on the social media app when she revealed how she achieved glowing skin.
Her face had previously been covered in painful red pimples as she struggled to get rid of acne.
"All you need is celery, pineapple, ginger," read the text over the video.
Thuytien washed and sliced each of the ingredients into small chunks before putting them into a juicer.
They became a smooth green liquid that she transferred into two bottles to drink throughout the week.
She revealed in the caption of the post that making the three-ingredient drink has become a staple in her routine.
"Last week I took a break from drinking this to see what it would do to my skin and it's safe to say after that week I am motivated to drink this regularly now," she said.
"The benefits of drinking this have helped my skin and gut health sooo much."
Thuytien described the homemade drink as a "game changer" as she encouraged people to make it for themselves.
She advised anyone without a juicer to use a blender to make the juice and then strain big pieces.
Almost 122,000 people liked the video and many viewers took to the comment section thanking her for sharing the recipe.
"Wow love this so much!! Your skin really said GLOW," one person said.
"Wow, it looks delicious. I want to drink it! I'll pour it into my smoothie glass and it'll taste even better!”
"Me and my mom are trying out this now!!!" another wrote.
"I'm gonna try this," a third chimed in.
How is celery juice an anti-ageing potion?
Celery juice is packed with antioxidants like vitamin C and flavonoids, which combat free radicals that cause cellular damage and aging.
Its high water content keeps your skin hydrated and plump, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
The anti-inflammatory compounds in celery, such as apigenin and luteolin, help reduce chronic inflammation linked to ageing.
Rich in essential nutrients like vitamin K and potassium, celery juice supports overall skin health and body functions.
Drinking celery juice regularly can complement a balanced diet and skincare routine, promoting a youthful glow from within.
"OMG this is what I do every morning, this is really effective and high in anti-inflammation," another added.
The recipe comes after a study suggested that topical products containing pineapple extracts or bromelain could reduce skin irritation.
However, Healthline advises against applying fresh pineapple to the skin as it may not have the same effect.
Pineapple is known for being rich in nutrients and antioxidants which may improve skin health.
