My absolute FAVOURITE products & routine for glowy, hydrated skin all year round – including some of the best K-beauty products for hydration, barrier repair, and glass skin results. If your skin is acne-prone or gets dry, irritated, reactive or dull easily, you will LOVE these recs, I promise!
If you want hydrated, acne-free, dewy “glass skin” with no dryness, no irritation, and a calm, healthy skin barrier, this is the routine I genuinely swear by. My skin is very sensitive and acne-prone (plus prone to redness/rosacea), and I used to break out badly thanks to a damaged skin barrier – but figuring out and sticking to this routine has genuinely changed everything. Now my skin stays glowy, smooth, and hydrated year-round, with barely any flare-ups. I can go out bare-faced or with a tinted moisturiser and look good.
Follow your skincare routine in this order: makeup remover → cleanser → exfoliant (1–3x a week) → toner → serum → active (PM only, use as works for you) → oils/ampoules → moisturiser → sunscreen (AM) 🫶 You’ll find them in that order below too, to make it easy.
This is really what I use and love, and I wouldn’t recommend anything I didn’t! If you found this helpful, like and save this list so you can refer back to it anytime – and follow me for more 💛
