The perfect skincare routine – tips for every skin type
Why a customized skincare routine is crucial
Every skin is unique. A well-thought-out skincare routine takes your skin's individual needs into account and helps you get the most out of your products. Korean skincare, in particular, relies on tailored routines with clear steps and skin-friendly textures.
Step 1: Determine your skin type
Before you choose products, you should know what skin type you are:
- Normal skin : balanced, neither too dry nor too oily
- Dry skin : feelings of tension, flaking
- Oily skin : shiny spots, tendency to blemishes
- Combination skin : oily T-zone, dry cheeks
- Sensitive skin : redness, irritation, rapid burning
Step 2: The most important steps of the skincare routine
a) Cleaning
Cleanse your skin morning and night with a mild cleanser. Low-pH cleansers are ideal because they're gentle on the skin barrier.
b) Toner
Balances the skin and prepares it for the next steps. Hydrating toners are indispensable, especially for dry or sensitive skin.
c) Serum
The booster of your routine – depending on your skin needs:
- Hyaluronic acid for moisture
- Niacinamide for an even skin tone
- Vitamin C for glow and antioxidant protection
d) Moisturizing care
Seals in the active ingredients and protects the skin barrier. Korean moisturizers are available as light gels or creamy textures.
e) Sunscreen (SPF)
The most important step in the morning. Without SPF, even the best skincare loses its effectiveness. Light, non-greasy textures provide protection without a white film.
Step 3: Tips for adapting to your skin type
- Dry skin : Rich textures, mild products, no aggressive peelings
- Oily skin : Oil-free products, light gel textures, mattifying formulations
- Sensitive skin : Few, well-tolerated products with soothing active ingredients such as Centella Asiatica
- Combination skin : combine products, e.g. rich cream for the cheeks and gel textures for the T-zone
Conclusion: Your skin in balance
A routine tailored to your skin type ensures a healthier skin feeling and a visibly more beautiful complexion.
