Moisturise
Korean skincare moisturisers help your skin stay soft, smooth, and full of hydration. They are made to work with your skin’s natural moisture barrier, not against it. The first step is keeping your skin calm and hydrated so it can protect itself. These moisturisers often include skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and plant extracts. They are light in texture but still very effective. Use after your favourite cleanser and serum from our range of Korean Skincare.
What makes Korean moisturisers different?
Korean moisturisers are usually lighter in texture and focus on hydration over oil. Many Western products focus on occlusion, using heavier creams to lock in moisture. Korean formulas aim to boost water content in the skin using ingredients like glycerin and hyaluronic acid. This keeps your skin soft without feeling greasy.
Can I use Korean moisturisers if I have oily skin?
Yes, Korean moisturisers can be a great choice for oily skin. They often come in gel or emulsion forms that feel light but still deliver hydration. Oily skin still needs moisture - without it, your skin might produce even more oil to make up for dryness.
Are Korean moisturisers suitable for sensitive or dry skin?
Yes, many Korean moisturisers are made with sensitive and dry skin in mind. They tend to avoid harsh alcohols and strong fragrances, which makes them gentler than many mainstream products. Ingredients like ceramides, panthenol, and beta-glucan are commonly used to calm the skin and support the skin barrier.
