Taking Care of Your Skin Made Easier
If you are following a Korean skin care routine, you may have been doing 10 to 12 steps of product application. However, it can be shortened into 5 or 7 steps if you are on a budget or tight schedule. Here is how you can cut your routine in half.
#1 Oil-based Cleanser
Water-based will not effectively remove oil-based impurities on your skin like SPF, makeup, and your natural sebum. Oil-based cleansers are most effective for removing these. Just make sure to use a cleanser that fits your skin type, especially for sensitive skin. It will ensure that your skin's natural oils are not stripped.
#2 Water-based Cleanser
It is the type of cleanser most people will likely think of when it comes up. It is usually a foaming liquid or bar that removes the remaining impurities left behind by oil cleanser, like swear and dirt. It is best to use a cleanser that contains ingredients like hyaluronic acid and niacinamide for oily skin.
#3 Toner
Your skin pH might be out of whack when you get to this step. Return its acidic state by using a toner with alpha hydroxic acid (AHA), especially for acne prone skin. It will restore balance and bring moisture back to your skin.
#4 Moisturiser
The moisturiser will act as a sealant to ensure that your skin will soak everything.
#5 SPF
More and more people seem to be acknowledging the effects of sun damage. Nowadays, foundations and moisturisers come with built-in SPF. However, it is still crucial to include this step even if you are already wearing another product with SPF.
Final Thoughts
These steps are the most crucial and fundamental steps to do every morning. You can do the seven-step routine at night. Take out the SPF and add essence, treatment and eye cream to the beauty regimen. Asian Beauty X has all your beauty needs, specially formulated for your specific skin type.
