Korean Skin Care Routine For The Glass Glow

Start with an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and impurities, followed by a water-based cleanser to deeply cleanse the skin.

Double Cleanse

Use a gentle chemical exfoliant (like AHAs or BHAs) 1-2 times a week to slough off dead skin cells and promote a smooth texture.

Exfoliate

Apply a hydrating toner to balance the skin’s pH and prep it for better absorption of subsequent products.

Toner

Pat an essence onto your skin, which is packed with hydrating and skin-repairing ingredients that help improve texture and radiance.

Essence

Choose a brightening serum that targets specific concerns like dark spots or dullness, containing ingredients like Vitamin C or niacinamide.

Serum

Use a lightweight, hydrating moisturizer to lock in all the previous layers and keep your skin plump and hydrated.

Moisturizer

During the day, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin from UV damage. At night, follow up with a nourishing night cream to replenish moisture.
