Your first Korean routine: start with 3 steps, not 10

The famous "10-step routine" scares off a lot of beginners. In practice, plenty of people in Korea keep short routines too. To start, this is enough:

Morning

1. Gentle cleanse (or just water if your skin is dry).
2. Moisturiser for your skin: gel if oily, cream if dry.
3. Sunscreen, every day, even when it's cloudy.

Night

1. Cleanse (double if you wore water-resistant sunscreen or makeup).
2. Moisturiser.

Adding products without chaos:

• Add one at a time and wait a couple of weeks before the next.

• Patch test a small area (behind the ear or along the jaw).

• If something keeps burning or stinging, stop; if it doesn't settle, see a professional.

Toners, essences and sheet masks are extras, not obligations.
