Products to Use

One of the most unique skin care products is snail mucin. Snail mucin is used to help balance skin tone and hydrate skin. Though it sounds different from American skincare, snail mucin packs a lot into one bottle. Rather than buying multiple products for acne spots, hydration, and moisturizing, all this and more is included in a single bottle of snail mucin.

Another unique skin care method is rice water. Rice water helps to brighten and clear skin, especially after face washing. Order is key when applying skin care, ensuring its effectiveness.

Skincare Routine

Aside from just products, a consistent (and elaborate) cleansing routine helps to achieve a skin texture known to Koreans as “glass skin.” Glass skin is when the appearance of skin looks so clear it is almost like glass. 

The first step is to double cleanse to remove dirt and build-up. This consists of first cleaning the face with a cleansing oil and then using a foam or water-based cleanser. While adding toner, ensure one’s face is damp as it emulsifies skin.

Next, add an essence. Most essences, like snail mucin, help to brighten skin. Adding moisturizer or eye cream usually finishes this routine, but sunscreen or a face mask helps repair and protect skin.

Korean products have proven to be efficient time and time again. Even though people have different skin types, there are enough products to find the perfect routine. Before starting a routine, consult a dermatologist to ensure the products fit correctly.
