When it comes to starting a skincare and a makeup
routine, it is important to know what is going on with your skin
and the types of products you are applying to it. After all,
you don’t want to apply something that could irritate it.
Your skin is delicate and sensitive, therefore, you must
take very good care of it so you can keep it
healthy and happy, no matter the season.
In this
self-care line
(because looking good & feeling good are all under
self-care, and self-care is for everyone), we’ve all heard
of the amazing
Korean
skincare and cosmetic products. These world-class products
are popular for two reasons. They are proven effective. And
they are also very affordable. So if you’re looking to build
up and or enhance your self-care setup, learn more about
K-beauty and feel free to try some products carefully.
Fun fact: South Korea has a long and rich tradition of
skincare, which dates back to the three Kingdom Eras of
Goguryeo, Baekje, and Shilla.
