Introducing a basic skincare routine recommended for combination skin for the hot summer (Toner, Essence, Cream, Eyelash Serum, Eye Cream)

Today, I’d like to introduce a routine using the basic skincare products I’ve been using well lately as the weather gets warmer.

Since everyone has different skin types and preferences, I hope you find this helpful!

I am someone who is very interested in cosmetics, so I tend to use more of them than my friends.

I think the answer is really to try out various products and find the ones that suit your skin.

There is also the fun of finding it~

My skin is combination type, but it becomes closer to oily in the summer.

Please keep in mind my skin type and take a look at the basic skincare routine I've been using well lately.

Second ampoule

Simes Nordic Birch Energy Essence

28,000 won

​

First, use toner, and then apply an essence ampoule.

Use the ampoule only once.

I've used it all up, so there really isn't much left now.

This essence is also easy to use, so I use it well throughout all four seasons.

Perhaps because it is a water-like type of essence, the finish is matte and it absorbs quite quickly.

So I'm still using it well even in the hot summer.

Since I've been using it consistently, there really isn't much left now.

I liked that it was an ampoule that flows well like water and isn't sticky.

I don't usually tend to get a lot of skin problems, but breakouts break out in the summer.

So, I mainly use soothing products in the summer.

It's not incredibly effective, but it's still a good product for daily use.

3rd cream

Dajayeon Eoseongcho Daily Calming Gel

13,000 won

​

It is a gel-type cream containing 50% Houttuynia cordata extract.

This is a cream I really love using this summer as it gets hotter!

I also recommend this to those with oily skin.

I've been paying extra attention to soothing my skin as the weather gets hotter this summer. Since this product contains Houttuynia cordata extract and is a gel type, it suits my skin well.

On top of that, it's relatively affordable, so it's great to use on the body as well.

​

It is a gel type that is moisturizing and absorbs quickly, and since it is not very sticky, I use it a lot during the hot summer! I use the toner and ampoule year-round, but I just switch the cream to the summer version.

Actually, I don't really like gel-type creams, but as it gets warmer, regular creams felt too heavy. So I started using a gel cream, and it suited my skin perfectly because it provides hydration while being lightweight!

 

Cosnori Long Active Eyelash Serum Vegan Eyelash Serum

16,000 won

​

It is an eyelash serum that I use occasionally, though not every day.

But I realized I had already used it all up lol

It's a famous product you've often seen on YouTube, right?

I could definitely see with my own eyes that my eyelashes got longer and the number of them increased after using the eyelash serum! It was amazing!!

I recommend this to those who are worried about having short eyelashes.

It looks like a mascara type, and there is a round part at the front that looks like a ball.

So, I apply the serum to the lashes with the front part and sweep them once with the mascara part.

It is not irritating to the eyes, and they do not become cloudy, sting, or burn after use!

This product is also officially certified as vegan in Korea.

Banila Co Dear Hydration Bounce Eye Cream

25,000 won

​

I’ve heard a lot of people say that you should start using eye cream when you’re young, so even though I’m in my 20s, I’m using it consistently. Consistent care is really important!

So, actually, I think we'll only know if it's effective after some time has passed.

It is good to use not only around the eyes but also on nasolabial folds and neck wrinkles.

​

The opening is narrow, so a small amount comes out, making it perfect to use as an eye cream.

This product is definitely more moisturizing than the ones introduced earlier. However, it is not an extremely heavy type. It is not very sticky and is not irritating even when used around the eyes.

As expected, this is a product I use well throughout all four seasons.

 

 

It's a shame I couldn't bring more detailed photos due to the file size.
