Cleanser
With everything that goes on my skin when I step outside, I always crave for the moment to wash it all away at night, especially if I am also taking a bath. These are my go to cleansers.
Cleansing oil. This one I use when I have heavy makeup on, not for everyday because it is stronger.
DHC - Deep Cleansing Oil
This is the cleansing oil I use on a regular basis. The calendula helps calm my skin. I like having a cleansing oil, because I feel it works like an exfoliant as well.
IUNIK Calendula Complete Cleansing Oil 200ml – YesStyle Information Page
I really like this cleanser for everyday. It creates a nice foam, wash away the day you had, and make you feel nice and clean. It is suitable for sensitive skins.
Abib - Acne Foam Cleanser Heartleaf Foam
A staple. A classic. Great as an everyday cleanser.
13.5 oz Toleriane Purifying Foaming Face Wash for Oily Skin - La Roche-Posay | Ulta Beauty
Exfoliate
Either you want to minimize your pores or feel like you have a smoother skin, this is a great step to add to your routine - not everyday
A great way for a quick exfoliation. No mess like most clay masks. Just a few quick rolls, wash after it is dry, and you are done!
SKIN1004 - Madagascar Centella Poremizing Quick Clay Stick Mask | YesStyle
Mild exfoliant. You can use it as a serum with a quick dub on your face, you can add it on pads and leave on your face for a few minutes as a mask, or even softly wipe your face.
SOME BY MI - AHA, BHA, PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner 150ml
Great exfoliant, can reduce the appearence of pores and make the skin feel smoother

An extra step if you are looking for that extra hydration or glow
Lovely product. Adds a quick boost and lift to your face. Smooth and calm. I love it.

Serum
That extra step in your routine to help improve problems you might be facing
No matter your skintype, this is a great addition if you want to add serum in your routine. Soothes, moisturizes, loves your skin.
SKIN1004 - Madagascar Centella Asiatica 100 Ampoule | YesStyle
Another SKIN1004 product? No way. Brightens, smooths, even slightly exfoliates your skin. I use it when I feel like my face needs a pick me up or if it has gone through a lot.
Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule Jumbo
If you are looking for barrier repair, then this is magic. I love this product. I often even use it before my makeup as a primer.
7 Rice Ceramide Hydrating Barrier Serum - Anua - YesStyle
Dewy, glowy, moisturized skin. Especially for people with dry skin, looking to feel moisturized again. If you can splurge, do it.
Torriden - DIVE-IN Low Molecule Hyaluronic Acid Serum - YesStyle
Retinoids
Let's talk about how to use them. If you are starting now and you want to be extra cautious: At night - wash face - moisturize - leave to dry - a pea size of retinol - moisturize. Once every 2 weeks. If everything goes fine, you can start once a week...
A great start to the retinoid game. Mild, can be used more often, no need to take as many precautions.
KSECRET - SEOUL 1988 Serum : Retinal Liposome 2% + Black Ginseng | YesStyle
A smooth start to retinol. Mild and easy on the skin. Great choice for beginners or sensitive skin.
SOME BY MI - Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum | YesStyle
If you have already been using retinol and want to step up your game a bit, or have mature skin and want to start there, this is a great option. Still mild but with a higher percentage.
Isntree - Hyper Retinol EX 1.0 Serum - YesStyle
Moisturizer
Lock up the hydration your skin needs.
Soothing, hydrating, lightweight, fresh. If that is what you are looking for, here you are.
Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Moisture Cream
If you are looking for a gel cream, this is for you. I have loved this moisturizer. I generally like centella in my products, and the combination with the gel texture is like a relief for my face. Love it.
iUNIK - Centella Calming Gel Cream 60ml | YesStyle
I really like gel cream and this is one of them. It feels light and soothing. I also like to use it before makeup.

Sunscreen
Even if you have no skincare routine, I seriously hope you are wearing sunscreen. If you don't, these are some great options for you to start!
If you are a fan of K-beauty or just sunscreens, I am sure you have heard about this one. A great option - nice and lightweight.
ROUND LAB - Birch Juice Moisturizing Sunscreen
No white cast, great feel, great product. SKIN1004 is one of my favorite brands and there is a reason.
SKIN1004 - Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum Twin Pack | YesStyle
Great sunscreen. Easy to apply, works well as a base before makeup.
