Korean skincare is known for lightweight textures, a focus on hydration and a gentle approach to the skin barrier. You do not need the full multi-step routine to borrow the best ideas from it.
Begin with one cream or serum from a K-beauty brand and keep the rest of your routine simple. Ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, centella and niacinamide appear often and are easy to find.
