Moisturisers

We all know the importance of a good skincare routine — such as the Korean 10-step routine — and we all want soft, smooth, clear skin. K-beauty is known for its natural ingredients, which improve your skin and aim to maintain well hydrated and healthy skin to last a lifetime.  

Moisturisers in general are an essential product to keep your skin hydrated, soft and healthy, reducing the appearance of ageing. However, many people skip this step because it leaves the skin feeling oily and “heavy”. 

But, did you know that a lot of Korean moisturisers have lightweight yet powerful formulas to leave your skin nourished without feeling greasy or heavy? Water sleeping masks, for example, are great lightweight gel moisturisers that deeply hydrate your skin overnight. Their purpose is to hydrate, lock in moisture and refresh your skin, without being sticky or thick. 

Snail mucin is a unique ingredient used in K-beauty products, including Korean moisturisers. It promotes skin hydration (have you spotted the ongoing theme yet?) and collagen production, and aids with healing and regeneration, which makes it a great option for those with dry skin. With that being said, most moisturisers with snail mucin can also be used on all skin types as their formula is also lightweight and versatile. 

Korean skincare products, including lightweight Korean moisturisers, accommodate every skin type — whether dry or oily.
