The ten-step Korean skincare routine to achieve that beautiful and healthy glow! It may seem long-winded but with daily practice you can soar through this routine in FIVE minutes!
- OIL CLEANSER
Use your go to make-up remover/oil cleanser. This removes makeup and dirt - even the most stubborn waterproof products!
Mask Time Favourite: Banila Co. Clean it Zero
- FACIAL CLEANSER
Makeup and dirt are never properly removed after one cleanser! Residue can sit inside your pores, clogging them and can lead to more skin problems. Facial cleansers help clean out the remaining dirt.

EXFOLIATOR
Exfoliating helps detox, remove flaky skin and shrink visible pores. We recommend 2-3 times a week using a gentle facial scrub with extra gentle application!
Mask Time Tip: Never use peel off pore masks as that can cause damage to your skin and enlarge pores more, allowing more dirt to travel into! Remember pores are natural and provide healthy oils to our skin.

- TONER
Toner balances and adds moisture back into the skin after cleansing.
Mask Time Tip: Using your hands to apply the toner will ensure all product is absorbed into the skin rather than in a cotton pad - also more eco friendly!

- ESSENCE
Essence helps by adding moisture and nourishes your skin, increasing that healthy glow!
Mask Time Tip: Take a penny size amount onto your palm and pat gently on your face and neck.

- EYE CREAM
Our eyes are the most delicate areas on our face, with the thinnest layer of skin on there and it’s important we keep that regularly attended to!
Mask Time Tip: Use your ring finger to gently pat under the eye area. Gently use your fingertips to tap on your forehead and cheeks that surrounds the eye area to increase healthy blood circulation!
Mask Time Favourite: Laneige Perfect Renew Eye Cream
- FACE MIST
The final step to keep that glow, hydration and calm redness is face mist! It will keep you feeling so fresh!
Mask Time Tip: You can reapply during the day when your skin is feeling tired and dry. Just a quick spritz across your whole face will do the trick!

11. SPF
An extra step for morning routines should include adding SPF to protect your skin. This should go after the eye cream or if you can find moisturisers that already include SPF
