The essential first step in the Korean double cleanse. Oil cleansers melt away makeup, SPF, and excess sebum without stripping the skin. Ideal for all skin types — even oily — they leave skin feeling clean, soft, and balanced, never tight or dry.

FAQs

If you are a K-Beauty beginner, we recommend starting with a simple 4-step routine that includes a cleanser, a serum, a moisturiser, and a sunscreen. We recommend starting small because if your skin is not used to many actives and layering, the sudden introduction of a 10-step routine that contains powerful products may overwhelm your skin, or cause it to break out. Slowly increasing the number of products in your routine will also make it easier for you to determine if a product is not suitable for your skin.

Start by identifying your skin type—dry, oily, combination, or sensitive.

  • For dry skin: look for hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and squalane.
  • For oily/acne-prone skin: opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas with tea tree, salicylic acid, or niacinamide.
  • For sensitive skin: go for fragrance-free, soothing products with centella asiatica or heartleaf.We also have a skin-type filter on our shop to help you choose easily!

The 10-step routine is a popular K-beauty method focused on hydration, protection, and gradual improvement. It includes:

  1. Oil Cleanser
  2. Water-Based Cleanser
  3. Exfoliator
  4. Toner
  5. Essence
  6. Serum/Ampoule
  7. Mask
  8. Eye Cream
  9. Moisturiser
  10. Sunscreen (AM) or sleeping pack (PM)
    You don’t have to do all 10 steps daily just choose what works best for your skin.
