Korean Routine (Korean Cosmetics)
What is the Korean routine?
It's a facial care method that combines gentle and effective steps to achieve radiant, balanced, and healthy skin from within . Although it may seem complex, it's easily adaptable to every skin type and lifestyle.
It's not really about using a thousand products, but rather about understanding the order, function, and quality of each step .
The 10 steps of the Korean facial routine (and how to simplify them!)
-
Cleansing oil
Gently removes makeup, sunscreen, and accumulated oil without damaging the skin. -
Water-based cleanser (foam or gel)
Deep cleansing to remove impurities and traces of sweat or environmental dirt. -
Exfoliating (2 times a week)
It helps renew the skin, eliminate dead cells and improve texture. -
Tonic
Balances pH, soothes and prepares the skin to receive other treatments. -
Essence

High concentration of active ingredients for specific needs (blemishes, wrinkles, acne, etc.). -
Mask (1–2 times per week)
A burst of hydration and nutrients. Korean sheet masks are famous for their flash effect. -
Eye contour

Moisturizing
It seals the entire routine and keeps the skin nourished and elastic. -
