## CLEANSERS 



  

Double-cleansing is a non-negotiable step in K-beauty routines. By using an oil-based formula first, the idea is that you melt away make-up, SPF and excess sebum. Following up with a water-based cleanser gets rid of sweat and grime, leaving your skin feeling fresh. At this second-cleanse stage, you may like to go for a cleanser designed for your skin type. For instance, a gentle, non-stripping foam containing salicylic acid helps penetrate pores and break down bonds between dead skin cells – a game-changer if you’re spot-prone. There are plenty of great options in this category, in particular, Then I Met You’s [cleansing balm](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=59805&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spacenk.com%2Fuk%2Fskincare%2Fcleansers%2Fcleanser%2Fliving-cleansing-balm-UK200051401.html) is highly rated for its silky, nourishing consistency.

## ESSENCES 



  

One of the lesser-known skincare steps, an essence is worth adding into your routine if you’re after that ‘glass skin’ effect. Applied after cleansing, it replenishes moisture levels and creates a dewy, plumped canvas that’s ready for make-up. Snail mucin is the ingredient many credit for giving them that crystal-like luminosity, and COSRX’s [bestseller](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2041&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fcosrx-advanced-snail-96-mucin-power-essence-gel-100ml-10280721) [ ](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2041&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fcosrx-advanced-snail-96-mucin-power-essence-gel-100ml-10280721)is the version everyone raves about. Mixoon [Bean Essence](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2041&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fmixsoon-bean-essence-50ml-10352034) and Beauty of Joseon [Ginseng Essence Water ](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2041&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fbeauty-of-joseon-ginseng-essence-water-150ml-10348090) are hugely popular vegan options.

## TREATMENTS 



  

The treatment stage is key for targeting specific skin concerns, such as hyperpigmentation, fine lines and uneven texture. Serums and ampoules deliver highly concentrated active ingredients, allowing for deep penetration and visible results. [Medicube](https://www.superdrug.com/skin/face-skin-care/face-serums/medicube-triple-collagen-serum-40/p/mp-00143404) [ ](https://www.superdrug.com/skin/face-skin-care/face-serums/medicube-triple-collagen-serum-40/p/mp-00143404)– one of the leading K-beauty innovators, best known for its celeb-approved, high-tech devices – has an excellent range of topical treatments, promising to improve elasticity and boost cellular repair. Another hype-worthy serum that gets our vote is Glow Recipe’s [Dew Drops](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=29063&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cultbeauty.co.uk%2Fp%2Fglow-recipe-watermelon-glow-niacinamide-dew-drops-40ml%2F13310752%2F). Powered by hardworking niacinamide, it gives your skin a plumped, glossy sheen, and there’s even a bronze-tinted version which works nicely mixed in with your foundation.

## MOISTURISERS 



  

If you’re only picking up one thing, make it one of these moisturisers. From feather-light sunscreens to peptide-powered creams, each one is designed to flood the skin with moisture, leaving it feeling supple and bouncy. To combat dehydration, try a water-based gel, whereas if dryness is an issue, go for something richer. A note on SPF – Korean women are fanatical about shielding their skin from UV rays. One of our current favourites is by [Laneige](https://www.johnlewis.com/laneige-hydro-uv-defense-ex-sunscreen-spf-50/p113770444). Bouncy and hydrating, it simultaneously protects and minimises redness, thanks to centella asatica. Plus, the formula feels almost imperceptible and doesn't interfere with make-up, so no excuses.
