Guide to K-Beauty Skincare Routine

Step 1: Use an oil-based cleanser

Take a small piece of the skin care product and rub it gently onto your face in circular movements. Ideally, massage your facial skin like this for a few minutes to activate your blood circulation. Then rinse the product off with lukewarm water.

Although the oil cleanser is not as nice as conventional products, it can remove dirt, waterproof make-up and sunscreen.

Step 2: Now you can clean your face with a water-based cleansing foam. Use a water-based cleansing foam (Double Cleanse)

With the second cleansing, you remove sweat, dirt and oily impurities in depth. After you have removed make-up from your skin in the first step, you prepare your skin optimally for the next steps.

Step 3: Use a scrub
Massage a small amount of the peeling into your facial skin in gentle circular movements and wash off after one to two minutes.

Peeling helps remove dead skin cells and clean clogged pores. This step should be done about once a week. Make sure that the peeling is tailored to the needs of your skin type.

Step 4: Use a toner.
Put some facial water (also known as toner) on your fingers or a cotton pad and press it into the skin.

The toner ensures that your skin is soothed and refreshed after cleansing and is prepared for subsequent care. Depending on your skin type, the toner can balance the pH value of the skin.

Step 5: Apply the essence
Apply the essence to your facial skin by tapping it with your fingers.

In Korea, the essence is one of the most important components of skin care. The essence consists of serum and toner and ensures that your skin is supplied with essential nutrients. When composing the skin care products, the focus is on the individual needs of your skin.

Step 6: Applying the serum
Gently apply the serum to your face and allow it to penetrate thoroughly.
Facial serums are a concentrated form of an essence. They are known for their effective skin care products and diverse properties. Their ingredients can reduce wrinkles, shrink pores and improve the skin's appearance. Here you can once again address the specific needs of your skin.

Step 7: Apply the mask
Pamper yourself with the refreshing effects of a sheet mask for about 20 minutes. After removing the mask, gently work any leftover skin care product into your skin.
A mask can meet your skin's needs with a wide range of care ingredients. You can do this process either once or several times a week.

Step 8: Use an eye cream.
Dab a pea-sized amount onto the delicate skin around the eyes.
An eye cream nourishes the delicate skin around the eyes. This can reduce signs of fatigue and skin aging.

Step 9: Use a cream
Gently massage a cream that suits your skin type into your skin.
The cream ultimately provides your skin with care tailored to its needs and with plenty of moisture.

Step 10: Use sunscreen
A mild sunscreen protects the skin from UV rays that accelerate skin aging and thus ensures healthy skin.
