The perfect skincare routine: How to adapt it to your skin type
Why a customized skincare routine is so important:
Every skin is unique. A well-coordinated skincare routine takes your skin's individual needs into account and ensures you get the most out of your care. Korean skincare, in particular, places great emphasis on tailored care steps.
Identify skin type:
Before you choose products, you should know what skin type you are:
• Normal skin: balanced, neither oily nor dry
• Dry skin: feeling of tension, flaking
• Oily skin: shiny areas, tendency to blemishes
• Combination skin: oily T-zone, dry cheeks
• Sensitive skin: redness, irritation, burning
2. The most important steps of your skincare routine:
a) Cleanser
Cleanse your skin of dirt, makeup, and sebum morning and night. Gentle products like low pH cleansers from Korean skincare prevent dryness.
b) Toner
It optimally prepares the skin for the next steps in your skincare routine and brings it into balance. Hydrating toners are indispensable, especially for dry or sensitive skin.
c) Serum
The booster of your routine:
• Hyaluronic acid for moisture
• Niacinamide for an even skin tone
• Vitamin C for glow and protection against environmental influences
d) Moisturizer
Seals in the active ingredients and protects the skin. Korean products often rely on easily melting gel or cream formulations that are optimally absorbed.
e) Sunscreen (SPF)
The most important step in the morning. Without sunscreen, even the best products lose their effectiveness. Choose a light texture that doesn't leave a white film.
3. Tips for adapting to your skin type
• Dry skin: Use rich textures and avoid aggressive scrubs.
• Oily skin: Use oil-free products and light gel textures.
• Sensitive skin: A few, well-tolerated products. Ingredients like Centella Asiatica have a soothing effect.
• Combination skin: Combine products – e.g. rich cream for the cheeks and gel for the T-zone.
