10-Step Korean Skincare Routine!
If you’re talking K-beauty, you gotta mention the 10-step Korean skincare routine!
- Oil Cleanser: Start by removing makeup and sunscreen with an oil-based cleanser. This helps to dissolve impurities and excess sebum on the skin.
- Water-Based Cleanser: Follow up with a water-based cleanser to thoroughly cleanse the skin and remove any remaining residue from the oil cleanser.
- Exfoliation: Exfoliate the skin 2-3 times a week to remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. This can be done using chemical exfoliants like AHAs or BHAs, or physical exfoliants like scrubs.
- Toner: Apply a hydrating toner to balance the skin’s pH levels, hydrate, and prepare it for the next steps in the routine.
- Essence: Essence is a lightweight, hydrating formula that helps to deeply moisturize and nourish the skin. It’s usually applied after toner to enhance absorption.
- Serum or Ampoule: Serums and ampoules are concentrated treatments that target specific skin concerns like brightening, anti-aging, or hydration. Apply them after essence for maximum effectiveness.
- Sheet Mask: Sheet masks are soaked in serums or essences and are designed to provide an extra boost of hydration and nutrients to the skin. Use them 2-3 times a week.
- Eye Cream: Apply a small amount of eye cream to the delicate skin around the eyes to hydrate, brighten, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Moisturizer: Lock in all the hydration with a moisturizer suitable for your skin type. This helps to prevent moisture loss and keeps the skin soft and supple.
- Sunscreen: Last but certainly not least, apply sunscreen every morning to protect your skin from harmful UV rays and prevent premature aging and skin damage.
