But you know that every good thing takes time, so a flawless skin is also the results of the healthy skincare routine. It is really difficult to soothe your skin in such a polluted environment. Your skin needs to breathe fresh air. It longs for proper care to charge and replenish itself from the damage caused by the various agents may it be an external one or the internal.
With the above-mentioned paragraph, I really don't mean to say- just fill your mirror shelves with tons of expensive skincare products.
I just want to encourage you towards-
Finding a healthy skincare routine with limited and effective skincare products that work well for your skin.
The power of skincare routine does not lie in the expensive skincare products but just choosing one healthy routine according to your skin condition and following it consistently for days, weeks and months.
Results always appear in the room full of discipline, consistency, and dedication, may it be your career and day to day things like skincare routine.
Among several skincare routines, The 10 step Korean skincare routine is the most famous one.
Today I have come with this Korean skincare routine to let you know the magic of it.
WHY KOREAN SKINCARE ROUTINE?
Many of you must be wondering why I have come with this Korean skincare routine only. While doing a lot of research for a perfect skincare routine, I came across this one and started following the Korean skincare routine for days and months and the results I got were so appreciated that it gave me a kick to share my opinions with my readers too.
While I was on my research process, I got to know that for most people the Korean skincare regime is all about using infinite products over your skin which is absolutely incorrect and I must say it is the misconception in the minds of people.
Korean skincare regime is all about having a peaceful conversation with your skin, listening to its problems like a friend and resolving it with utmost care and love.
10 STEPS OF THE KOREAN SKINCARE REGIME

STEP:1- OIL CLEANSER
People even with oily and sensitive skin can use these cleansers.
You can even use these cleansers as a makeup remover too.
STEP:2- WATER-BASED CLEANSER
The technique of using two cleansers is known as a double cleansing process. It helps you in cleansing your skin completely and allows your skin to breathe fresh air.
You can use any mild water-based cleanser and rinse thoroughly with water after massaging for a few seconds. There are a variety of water cleansers you can choose them according to your own skin condition.
STEP:3- EXFOLIATOR
Exfoliation helps you in removing impurities and dirt from your skin. It helps you in removing dead and dull skin by scrubbing good exfoliators over your face.
Exfoliation should not be done everyday, regular exfoliation will damage your skin. Hence this step should be done twice a week.
You can use any exfoliators which suit your skin condition.
STEP:4- TONER
Toners are important to detoxify our skin and also shrinks the pores on the skin. It helps in maintaining the pH balance of your skin and makes it supple and soft by hydrating it.
You just need to take the generous amount of toner over a cotton pad and swipe it over your face.
STEP:5- ESSENCE
Essence helps you in hydrating your skin well. As you know wet things are super absorbent, the essence does the same work to your skin. It makes your skin well-hydrated so that the other products can be absorbed and infused into the skin easily. Today, we all live in the air-conditioned room and external temperature is also getting up, it is quite very important to provide proper hydration to our skin so that it can replenish from all the damages done. Essence actually sets the proper environment for better working of your skincare products.
Just spray it in your hands and dab it all over your face.
STEP:6- SERUM/BOOSTER
The serum contains blends of antioxidants and many other minerals that help you to replenish your skin from aging and restores the skin elasticity. The main constituents of a good serum are licorice extracts, hydraulic acid, and lotus water. While buying serum you must check out it AHAs and PHAs preferably if you have dull skin. Since there is a number of serums available in the market according to different skin types so please have some deep research about the serum and its ingredients before buying it.
A serum is a very light water-based formula that has to be applied over the essence layer.

STEP:7- SHEET MASK
Sheet mask helps you absorbing the goodness of all the products that you have applied. It also provides hydration to your face. Sheet mask contains the botanical extracts and many other complementary strong ingredients that are hydrophilic and can be portable with water into your skin. Sheet masks are available in large categories and options so that you can have the mask according to your skin conditions.
Just take the mask out of the packaging and stick it over your face for about 15 minutes to absorb its goodness.
STEP:8- EYE CREAM
I think there is no need to elaboration much about the importance of eye cream. Eye cream plays a vital role as the dark circles around our face spoils our beauty by making us look dull and older. since the area around our eyes is very delicate it needs extra attention and care.
You can use any good eye cream according to your budget and skin condition. you just need to apply around your eye area.
You must read the precaution for the eye cream very carefully as many of the eye creams comes with the warning of not to use in sunlight. They are specifically designed to use at night time only.
STEP:9-MOISTURIZER
Moisturizer helps you to lock the ingredients into our skin for long hours. Moisturizers come with a lot of antioxidants and hydration ingredients that help your skin to glow. It provides you a glossy and healthy-looking skin.
You can use any moisturizer with good ingredients and apply it over your face.
STEP:10- SPF
Sunscreen has emerged as a must skincare product. Today people can't think of walking from their home without applying SPF. Sun damages our skin a lot more than you think. There are two kinds of sunscreen in the market one is physical sunscreen while another is a chemical one. Choose the one which best suits your skin.
Use any SPF over 50 and apply over your face and wear it all over the day. You will notice a major difference by wearing the SPF all day long.
People say it 10-step Korean skin-care but it is not really a 10-step process. Korean skin-care is all about hearing your skin and responding accordingly. You should not exfoliate your skin more than twice a week. Secondly, you have to skip the SPF step if you are doing it in the evening time. Some people do this routine twice a day i.e morning and evening but many people like to do in the evening time after coming back from work.
