Korean skin care regimens are best known for giving dewy, glowing, radiant, soft, even skin. Who doesn’t want that? This intriguing skin care regimen has captured the attention of American women. And rightfully so!
As a skin care lover and always looking to improve my skin, I dove in head first into the world of K-Beauty skin care! They have steps and products we have never heard of. They are most known for their extensive 10 step skin care regimen.
The Regimen: Korean skin care believes so strongly in prevention, it’s built into the culture to start a healthy skin care regimen at a very young age. They understand that prevention is much easier than reversal. Instead of just slapping products on, it’s very important what order and how the products are applied. Thinner, more watery products go on first. Then you work your way to the heavier products. Every step is done is a gentle way, with absolutely no tugging or pulling. While applying products always use upward motions, to never pull the skin down and create sagging. Use circular massage motions and pressure points during application, to promote blood flow and tighten facial muscles.
Cleanse: The regimen begins with a double cleanse. First with an oil based cleanser then with a foam cleanser. Using only your finger tips, massage the oil cleanser onto dry skin. This will gently melt away makeup. Thoroughly rinse. Follow with the foam cleanser. Again, gently massage over skin and rinse thoroughly. My skin felt extremely clean yet not stripped.
