In terms of ingredients look for vitamin C, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid for that glowing look. In South Africa the best serum for glowing skin will enhance your routine by delivering nutrients deep into the skin.
Face Cleansers
A mild cleanser is key to remove impurities, make up, and extra oil without breaking down the skin’s natural protection. In South Africa we have a great range of face cleansers which are appropriate for morning and night use. Cleansers come in foam, gel, or cream forms to suit all skin types.
Moisturizers Lotions
Koreans focus on hydration and nutrition of the skin without over doing it. We have products for dry, oily, and combination skin types which in turn will keep your skin very soft and supple. For day time we recommend the lighter creams and for night time the heavier formulations do the best.
Sunscreams
In South Africa which has high levels of UV exposure sun protection is key. Also in the K-beauty scene sunscreens are very light, don’t leave a greasy feel and they provide broad spectrum protection. We put on sunscreen every day to prevent premature aging and pigmentation which also plays nice with other skin care products.
