### 1. **Double Cleansing**
- **Oil Cleanser**: Start with an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup, sunscreen, and excess sebum.
- **Water-Based Cleanser**: Follow up with a water-based cleanser to cleanse any remaining dirt or impurities.
### 2. **Exfoliation**
- Use a gentle exfoliator 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin cells and allow other products to penetrate better.
### 3. **Toner**
- Korean toners are typically hydrating and help balance the skin’s pH, preparing it to absorb the next products more effectively.
### 4. **Essence**
- Essences are lightweight, hydrating formulas that deliver moisture and nutrients, enhancing skin's natural radiance.
### 5. **Serum or Ampoule**
- Target specific concerns (like dark spots, wrinkles, or acne) with a serum. Ampoules are more concentrated and often used for shorter periods.
### 6. **Sheet Mask**
- Sheet masks are soaked in serums and provide a boost of hydration and nutrients. Use once or twice a week for best results.
### 7. **Eye Cream**
- Eye cream is essential to keep the delicate eye area hydrated and reduce the appearance of dark circles and fine lines.
### 8. **Moisturizer**
- Lock in all the previous layers with a moisturizer that suits your skin type, whether it's a gel, cream, or lotion.
### 9. **Sunscreen (Morning)**
- Sun protection is a must. Use SPF 30 or higher in the morning to shield your skin from harmful UV rays.
### Key Ingredients in Korean Skincare:
- **Snail Mucin**: Known for its skin-repairing properties.
- **Centella Asiatica**: Calming and soothing for sensitive skin.
- **Green Tea**: A natural antioxidant that reduces inflammation.
