Korean facial skin care can be so intimidating, especially when you’re starting out. Do I need a serum? A moisturizer? A face wash? What the heck is an essence?!
If you feel like you’re swimming in a sea of skincare products and don’t know where to start, don’t worry Ornella is here to help with their bundle to show you how to do the easiest 5-step Korean skin care routine for rookies that want to get that Korean glass skin without having to perform an endless 10-step ritual!
No matter if you have sensitive, dry, oily, or normal skin, read on, and get ready to start your journey to beautiful skin!
Here’s how you can do it:
Step 1: Take The DAY OFF OIL CLEANSER:
An oil cleanser is exactly what it sounds like: a cleanser that contains oils. These oils work together to break down stubborn makeup and dirt (which are oil-based impurities), while also cleansing and moisturizing the skin.
And don’t worry! These oils are easily absorbed by the skin and non-comedogenic, which means that, even if you have acne-prone skin, your pores won’t clog and cause breakouts!
Plus, if you have dry skin, this type of cleanser will help you remove impurities without further drying your skin. Awesome, right?
Step 2: WATER-BASED CLEANSER
The term "water-based" refers to the fact that the cleanser contains water as its main ingredient. Our Vitamin C + Niacinamide Cleansing gel is what you need.
A water cleanser is the best to remove water-based impurities, like sweat, from your skin.
Step 3: Pore Corrector
A toner’s job is to balance the pH of your skin (which can be thrown off by a number of things, like using harsh cleansers or tap water), restore any lost nutrients, and prep the skin to better absorb your serums and moisturizers.
Step 4: Alpha Arbutin Brightening Serum
Let's face it: we all want that dewy, glass-like skin most Koreans have. Baby soft, without a blemish in sight. But let's get real for a second here: skin is the largest organ in our bodies, and it's constantly bombarded with dirt, pollution, and other nasty stuff.
So it's no wonder that our skin can start to look dull and feel dry after a while. That's why, whether you need Alpha Arbutin Brightening Serum
to brighten the skin and get rid of dark spots.
Step 5: Dew Point Moisturising Gel Cream
We can’t stress this enough: EVEN if you have oily skin or combination skin, dew point moisturizer is a must and it won’t cause you excess oil
