Understanding the correct order to apply your skincare products ensures you get the maximum benefit from each step in your Korean beauty routine. Whether you’re using a basic set or following a recommended 10-step routine, layering correctly can make a noticeable difference in results. Here’s our clear, brand-backed guide for optimal application.
Why Product Order Matters
The order you apply products influences how well ingredients absorb and layered products perform. Lighter textures penetrate easier, while heavier formulas lock active ingredients in. Applying products incorrectly can dilute effectiveness or cause irritation, so following the recommended sequence is key for healthy, glowing skin.
The Step-by-Step Guide
- Cleanser – Start with a gentle cleanse to remove impurities.
- Toner – Preps and balances the skin.
- Essence – Hydrates and improves absorption.
- Serum/Ampoule – Target specific concerns like hydration or brightening.
- Moisturiser – Locks in previous layers and prevents moisture loss.
- Sunscreen (AM only) – Protects against UV damage as your final step.
Tips for an Effective Routine
- Apply products from thinnest to thickest texture.
- Wait a few seconds between layers for absorption.
- SPF is always last in your morning routine.
- Follow placement tips on each product page for best results.
