The Korean Beauty Routine differs from a typical western skincare routine and one of the steps in the routine that stands out is the double cleanse.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Korean double cleanse method (and how to do it!)
The Korean Double Cleansing Method is a two-step cleansing process. It involves washing your face with an oil-based cleanser first, followed by a water-based cleanser second.
Using two different cleansers at night is perfect to remove makeup, dirt and build-up for cleaner, softer, and smoother skin. It can also assist with the prevention and spread of blemishes.
The Korean Double Cleanse Method starts with an oil based cleanser, applied to dry skin.
The cleanser can be in solid or liquid form and is used to remove oil-based impurities and water resistant makeup. Not only does it gently draw out debris and pollutants without the need for harsh scrubbing, it also prevents tugging at the skin. Harsh cleansing isn’t great for your pores.
Cleansing oils are perfect for all skin types because they work with the natural oils in your skin. Unlike other cleansers, they also don’t sink into your pores or strip your skin, which dries it out.
This balm is perfect for dry, dull and mature skin because it gently but deeply cleanses.
Firstly, Bare Skin Balm combines Australian Lemon Myrtle which is rich is antioxidants. Secondly, dreamy Sea Buckthorn Oil melts away makeup, sunscreen and excess sebum while keeping your skin nourished.
As a second step, Koreans follow up with a water-based cleanser. This can be either a foaming or non-foaming cleanser. It's used to remove water-based residue including sweat and dirt. This cleanse draws out water-based debris and cleanses your face a second time to penetrate your skin for deeper cleanse.
This powder type wash has a pH balanced formula that is perfect for sensitive skin because it has a similar acidity to human skin. It also gently cleanses without leaving your face tight or dry. In addition, it supports the skin’s protective barrier.
Recently declared the "Best K-Beauty Scrub" by Women's Health Magazine, Jelly Ko Cinnamon Toast Sugar Scrub Foam gently exfoliates, dissolving the dirt and debris clogging our pores.
It not only melts into a creamy foam that thoroughly cleanses, it also keeps our skin clear and healthy. In addition, Ceramides and Vitamin E ensure skin stays soft and hydrated.
After cleansing, skin is left refreshed and smooth without irritation.
Indulgent cleansing, minus the calories? Yes, please!
