Korean Beauty Secrets: Korean Beauty i.e. K-Beauty has taken the world by storm in the last few years. Be it K-drama or K-pop, the glowing, transparent skin of Korean stars attracts everyone. ‘Glass skin’ means crystal clear, smooth, glowing and hydrated skin that glows from within – just like glass! But is this all just a miracle of genes? no way! There are some special and disciplined skincare secrets behind this. Let us know those 9 secrets that Korean women adopt, and by adopting which you too can get glass-like glowing skin.
Double cleansing is the foundation of the Korean skincare routine. First remove makeup and sunscreen with an oil-based cleanser, then remove dust and sweat with a water-based face wash. With this, the pores are deeply cleaned and the skin is able to breathe.
Apply the toner on the skin not once, but 7 times by patting it lightly. Due to this, moisture penetrates deeply into the skin, the skin does not look dull but looks radiant. This method is a boon for those with dry skin.
Korean women use not just one, but many types of moisturizers – light gel, cream and sleeping mask. Due to this, the skin is sealed in many layers and moisture remains for a long time.
Face mist isn’t just for summer. Korean women spray face mist 3-4 times a day to keep skin hydrated and fresh, especially after air conditioning and spending time in the sun.
Skin that is not glowing may have a layer of dead skin on it. The Korean routine requires gentle exfoliation 1-2 times a week so that new layers of skin come out and the skin appears brighter.
Korean women apply the product by tucking in the face. This is not only the method of application but also a trick to increase blood circulation which gives natural glow to the skin.
Applying essences and serums in between toner and moisturizer is a pillar of Korean skincare. These are high-concentrated and work deep into the skin – extremely effective in reducing pigmentation, fine lines or dullness.
Korean women apply SPF daily to protect their skin from the sun, whether it’s raining or snowing. Glass skin is possible only if there is no UV damage. It also slows down skin aging.
Korean women apply a sleeping pack before sleeping at night. It hydrates and repairs the skin overnight. The next morning the skin looks fresh, soft and glowing.
