The Best K-Beauty Products For Skip-Care – The New Minimalist Skincare Trend

Here’s how you can achieve brighter, better skin by doing less

The Best K-Beauty Products For Skip-Care, The Minimalist Skincare Trend

When it comes to skincare, we’ve got a vanity full of products from serums to moisturisers lined up to apply to our skin, with each product targeting different skin concerns. But more often than not, we tend to dread the multi-step skincare routine that we have to diligently follow and end up going to bed bare faced. Well, say hello to the minimal skincare trend that saves time and suits busy lifestyles: skip-care.

Skip-care has been all the rave for a while now, and for good reason: it’s basically the antithesis for the long 10-step skincare routine we’ve been told to follow. Instead of picking out 8 to 10 products that have different benefits, opt for a few good multi-tasking products that’ll help improve your skin and tackle any skin concerns you may have.

Do You Really Need To Include Beauty Essences In Your Skincare Regimen?

5 Beauty Tips From Korean Model Hwang Se-On

The tip is knowing what your skin needs and customising your skincare products according to that. A quick example: if you’re got dry, ageing skin, keep an eye out for a hydrating moisturiser that helps to smooth out fine lines too, so you can fill two needs with one deed.

If you’re keen on hopping onboard with this new trend, here are some overachieving K-beauty essentials you’ll find useful for getting started on your very own skip-care regimen.

Dear, Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner, $26.90

We’ll start with a crowd favourite: a vegan, multi-tasking toner that works hard to nourish, hydrate and prepare your skin for fast absorption of the next product. Infused with hyaluronic acid to penetrate the skin with replenished moisture, this toner promises to balance skin’s pH level, revealing smoother, softer skin after multiple uses.

This works well with all skin types, especially oily and sensitive skin, and is a great first step for your skip-care routine. Pop your favourite moisturiser (here are the best Korean moisturisers to try) on after the toner and you’re good to go.

Laneige Cica Sleeping Mask, $45

If you’re into Korean skincare, you’ve probably the word “Cica” thrown around more than once. It’s a popular K-beauty ingredient, but what exactly is it and what does it do?

Well, Cica is a green herb that has a myriad of benefits for your skin: including helping to soothe irritated skin, treating acne-prone skin and giving skin that boost of collagen that it needs.

This overnight sleeping mask from Laneige is filled with all the benefits of Cica and it’s perfect for those nights when you feel your dry skin needs that extra boost of hydration. The intensive nourishment throughout the night allows you to wake up to plump, soft and moisturised skin. A great way to start the morning, if you ask us.

Formulated with the brand’s unique JAUM Balancing Complex, the serum promises radiant, glowing skin while targeting wrinkles and fine lines to reduce signs of ageing.

Suitable for even the most delicate and sensitive skin, it helps moisturise and nourish while ensuring that it still remains gentle on the skin. Psst, Korean actress Song Hye-kyo (here are the best beauty looks from Song Hye-kyo) has been seen using products from Sulwhasoo and since her skin is as radiant as ever, we definitely trust her taste.
