Korean stars have always caught the world's attention with their beautiful, radiant, youthful and glowy skin. Over the years more and more people got invested into Korean skincare and among them, myself. I began to research Korean skin care steps and Korean skincare products. Even though the steps are pretty long, they have shown that with the right products for you, a huge difference can be seen in the skin. 

Natural Homemade Recipes to Help All Your Skin Problems.
 

Korean Skincare Routine Steps

Korean skincare steps for the morning:

1. Wash the skin with water only!

When you wake up, just give your face a cleanse using only water, which will wash off extra accumulated oils from your sleep time.  Make sure you're drinking a lot of water to maintain your skin's moisture as much as possible.

2. Toner is essential

Toner is an essential skincare step in a Korean beauty routine, which helps you restore the skin's acidity. After you've washed your face with water and gently patted it dry, use a toner with natural ingredients to help keep your skin balanced and hydrated. This is a good product and it is the Leegeeham Grow Tea Tree 70 BHA Toner, which is extracted from tea tree and so it also helps with acne. 

3. An Essence

Essences are the secret behind the beauty of Korean skin and a lot of people aren't familiar with this type of product. It helps with moisturizing the skin and rejuvenating the cells. It is almost like  somewhere in between a toner and serum.  You can try this essence by Atoclassic, the Real Tonic Soothing Origin Essence. It has a lot of natural herbs that can help with purifying the skin. 

4. Ampoules and vitamins

That's why you should be moisturizing it. This is the Secret Key Starting Treatment Eye Cream.

7. Moisturizer

Korean skincare steps for nighttime:

When it comes to the evening, when your day has come to an end, you skincare routine can be somewhat different from your morning routine, to make sure that you've removed all your makeup, your skin is properly cleansed, hydrated and given products that will work with rejuvenation overnight. 

1. Makeup removal

Double cleansing is extremely important to make sure the skin is fully cleansed and clean from any dirt accumulation, effects of pollution and makeup. It is good to start with an oil cleanser, which are brilliant for makeup removal. This method is a good gentle way to remove makeup without irritating or drying the skin.

Now it's time for the second cleansing step and here you can use a stronger cleanser to rinse of any remnants of the oil, but still without drying out the skin. For this, using a water-based cleanser will help restore the skin's acidity and not strip it from moisture. You can try the Mamonde Petal Spa Oil to Foam because it really helps clean the skin and get rid of the accumulated oils without stripping it too much.

3. Exfoliant

One of the important steps that must be taken into account, at least once for twice a week, is  exfoliation with the use of a gentle exfoliant that helps you not only remove the dead skin cells, but also clean the pores that get clogged from accumulated oils. That's why you can try Dr.G Brightening Peeling Gel, which helps exfoliate the skin, reduce dark spots and keep the skin soft.

4. Toner
