Winter skincare routine: the 5 products your skin really needs (not 12)

When cold weather arrives, it can be tempting to redo your entire bathroom cabinet. Yet an effective winter routine often relies on a few carefully chosen products.

Why your skin can change in winter

Cold, wind, and heated air can affect comfort and encourage dehydration, even for skin that is usually combination or oily.

1. A gentle cleanser

It should remove impurities without leaving a tight feeling. The GINZAI cleansing foam is an example of a cleanser to incorporate according to your skin’s tolerance.

2. A hydrating serum

Hyaluronic acid is common in hydrating formulas. SKIN IV, HAYEJIN, GINZAI, or Routinely serums offer several options depending on your routine.

3. A suitable moisturizer

Above all, choose the texture according to your skin: lightweight if you prefer a subtle finish, or more enveloping if your skin lacks comfort.

4. A targeted active ingredient - only if necessary

Retinol, bakuchiol, azelaic acid, or an exfoliant are not essential. An active ingredient should address a specific goal and be introduced gradually.

5. Sun protection in the morning

Winter does not eliminate UV rays. Sun protection remains especially relevant when using certain active ingredients.

What about toners, essences, and masks?

They can complement your routine, but they are not essential. K-Beauty can also be personalized and simplified.

The test before buying

Ask yourself what specific problem the new product solves. Without a clear answer, it may not be essential.
