Cleansers
Double cleansing is the foundation of the Korean routine: an oil or balm first dissolves makeup, sebum and sunscreen, then a water-based cleanser removes the residue. This step conditions the effectiveness of everything that follows, as long as it does not strip. Korean cleansers rely on gentle pH, textures that do not tighten and traditional ingredients such as rice, green tea or birch sap.
How to choose
In the evening, start with a cleansing oil massaged onto dry skin then emulsified with lukewarm water; in the morning, a gentle water-based cleanser is enough. Dry or sensitive skin: a pH 5-6 foam that cleanses without drying. Oily skin: a fresher foaming gel, without multiplying washes. A "squeaky clean" feeling is the sign of a cleanser that is too harsh.
