Korean layering: 10 steps to follow
How to have the same skin as Korean women ? This question has probably crossed your mind before. If you follow the Tiktok trends, you know that K-beauty is on the rise! To have this much acclaimed glass skin effect, we suggest you adopt the 10 steps of Korean layering .
What is Korean layering?
Korean layering is a technique that consists of superimposing several different treatments on the face. The goal is to achieve beautiful, hydrated and healthy skin.
The first step of Korean layering is to treat the cutaneous needs of the epidermis and prepare the skin to receive deep treatments. The second step is to meet the needs of the dermis and hypodermis . Finally, the last step serves to protect the skin from external aggressions.
Step 1: make-up removal
A step so neglected and how important! Make-up removal consists of ridding the skin of all its impurities and preventing the appearance of imperfections.
To do this, we suggest that you cleanse your skin with Micelliance micellar water . You will need to apply it all over the face using a cotton ball. Carry out this operation until the cotton becomes white.
This step should be done every night, even when you are not wearing makeup.
Step 2: cleaning
Cleansing eliminates the last impurities and cleanses the skin. Depending on your skin type, we recommend choosing a suitable cleanser.
Do you have combination to oily, acne-prone skin? Cleanactyl cleansing gel is designed to reduce blemishes and regulate excess sebum.
Morning and evening, apply the product to damp skin, make circular movements and rinse.
Step 3: Exfoliation

Skin exfoliation should be done once or twice a week. This step is useful for removing dead skin, exfoliating and refining the epidermis. It also helps unclog deep pores, stimulate cell renewal and collagen production.
The Exfoclear scrub is the answer to the needs of dull complexions and combination to oily skin . To use it, you must apply it on damp skin and make circular movements until a light foam appears. Then rinse with clear water.
Step 4: Lotion
The toner helps prepare the skin to receive moisturizers and actives for the deeper layers of the skin . In addition, it rebalances the pH of the skin.
To apply it, you can either use a cotton pad or pour a small amount into your hands and apply it to your face.
Step 5: The mask
It comes in addition to the scrub. Its role is to treat the skin in a targeted manner. It must be chosen according to the imperfections that you want to correct. It can be excess sebum, dull complexion, pimples, blackheads , hyperpigmentation , etc.
It should be done once or twice a week.
Step 6: Serum
On a daily basis, it is applied after the lotion. It serves to correct your imperfections . It acts on the superficial layers of the skin, at the level of the dermis and the hypodermis. It must be chosen according to the type of imperfection to be treated.
To apply the serum, you must avoid placing the pipette directly on the face. If it comes into contact with the skin, it may contaminate the serum when it is returned to the container. This risks damaging the effectiveness of the product in the long term.
It is best to take a few drops and pour them into the palms of your hands. Heat the product for a few seconds then tap your skin, applying pressure with the palm of your hand.
Step 7: Moisturizer
It nourishes the skin and treats skin problems. Black, dark and mixed skin types are often prone to imperfections such as hyperpigmentation and dullness. To remedy this, you can include the Day and Night anti-stain duo in your routine.
The anti-spot day care corrects brown spots and protects the skin from the sun's rays. While the anti-dark spot night treatment reduces dark spots and boosts collagen production.
Step 8: Care oil
Care oil is an optional step. However, it helps create a lipid barrier that will prevent your skin from drying out.
To apply it, you can proceed in the same way as a serum.
Step 9: eye contour
