If you've ever watched any Korean show, you'll definitely be able to resist the beauty of the skin of the protagonists of these shows that are depopulating the networks. How do they achieve it? Follow these steps and you'll have a porcelain skin like them.

What are what is the Korean skincare routine that we talk so much about right now? They are precise steps that Asian women, particularly Koreans utilize to take care of their skin. Depending on the various types they can range from 7 to 10 steps. Some of these steps are required to be completed at night or in the morning.


Yes, as taking good care of your skin requires you to care for it in the morning and at night. In the morning , you should prepare and protect your skin for the next day, in the evening to remove all the dirt and impurities we have built up during the day.



STEP 1&2: Double Cleansing

The first step I consider to be one of the most important is cleansing. In Korean cosmetics, we often use double cleansing. What exactly is double cleansing? And the habit to use two different types of cleanser. One is an oil-based cleanser that assists in removing make-up. It is necessary in the evening however it can be skipped during the daytime. The other is cleansing using foaming cleanser that helps remove any leftovers. This helps keep the skin clean and ready for the next steps. Personally, I can recommend Etude House's Real Art Cleansing Oil Moisture Advanced as the first step, and Paula's Choice Clam Nurishing Cleanser for the second step.


STEP 3: Toner

The third step is toner. Naturally, a non-alcoholic toner. Alcohol, even though it is not a big factor on the skin because it evaporates quickly is among the most irritating substances for the skin along with fragrances and perfumes. Toners are used to cleanse the skin thoroughly to eliminate impurities and bacteria and rebalances its pH following the first step. It also helps to remove those product residues that escaped the cleanser. A product that I personally think is very beneficial for this step is Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner by Haru Haru Wonder.

Step 4 4. Exfoliant

The next step is the exfoliant, which based on the type of exfoliant and skin type , can be used on a daily basis or on a regular basis. For instance, a gentle chemical exfoliant is suitable for use daily, a mechanical exfoliant not more than three times per week. Exfoliants, as their name implies, is used to gently eliminate old skin cells and dead ones from the area that it is applied to which is in this instance that is, the face. Consider the 2 percent BHA Liquid Exfoliant available from Paula's Choice, I find it to be exceptional.


However, does it really the Korean skincare routine really this effective? Let's look at what's next!

5. Face Mask

The next step is the face mask, which is to be used in the evening, and is a possible fabric mask, which is utilized every day or a clay mask if you have oily skin. In this instance it is recommended to use it every day. be the ideal time to use it. If you're using clay masks, like the fun Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask, it is recommended to use it following cleansing, before applying toner and exfoliator. If the mask is made of fabric, it's great even afterwards and can also be used in place the serum which normally comes after the exfoliant. The mask is used in accordance with your skin type to provide moisture in case of dry skin or to get rid of excess sebum in case of oily skin. It's also helpful, if you have irritated skin, to use one with mild ingredients.


STEP 6: Serum

The serum serves us to include specific ingredients into the skin, without over-weighing the skin. It is an extremely versatile product that can be used on its own in the case of oily skin, or with other products in the case dry skin. Cosmetics Generation of women choose to use one of the essential oils or serum, in the case of dry skin, both are suitable. One good example of this product, personally tested by IUnik is Tea Tree Relief.


STEP 7: Essence

Essence is an even lighter serum that is almost watery, but it provides hydration as well as other ingredients that maybe the serum did not contain. In summer, it's perfect if you have oily skin, because used alone it doesn't weigh the skin but adds ingredients that help our skin. Consider the Galacto Niacin 97 Power Essence by Purito, I recommend it!
