How to Make Your Own Korean Skincare Routine

Understanding the Basics of Korean Skincare

Korean skincare is built on the philosophy of treating your skin gently while maintaining its health through consistent care. While wholesale Korean Skincare Kits are readily available through distributors like Kagenasia, understanding how to build a personalized routine is crucial for achieving optimal results.

Essential Steps in Korean Skincare

1. Double Cleansing (Evening)

• Oil-based cleanser: Removes sunscreen, makeup, and oil-based impurities

• Water-based cleanser: Cleans remaining debris and preps skin for treatment

2. Toning

The toner balances your skin's pH and provides the first layer of hydration. Kagenasia's pH-balanced toners are particularly effective for sensitive skin types, containing calming ingredients like centella asiatica and green tea.

3. Treatment Products

Essence

Apply a lightweight essence to enhance skin cell turnover and boost hydration. This step is crucial for achieving that characteristic Korean glow.

Serums

Target specific skin concerns with serums:

• Vitamin C for brightening

• Hyaluronic acid for hydration

• Niacinamide for pore refinement

• BHA/AHA for gentle exfoliation

Ampoules

These concentrated treatments provide intensive care for specific skin issues. Use them during times of stress or seasonal changes.

4. Moisturizing

Sheet Masks (2-3 times per week)

Apply after serums for enhanced absorption of nutrients. Kagenasia offers a range of masks targeting different skin concerns.

Eye Cream

Use a specialized eye cream to address fine lines and dark circles in the delicate eye area.

Moisturizer

Seal in all previous layers with an appropriate moisturizer for your skin type.

5. Sun Protection (Morning)

Always finish morning routines with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.
