Kbeauty Summer Routine: Lightness, SPF, and Radiance

Summer is the perfect season to lighten your routine while maintaining optimal protection. Between heat, humidity, and sun exposure, skin needs to breathe without being deprived of care. Kbeauty offers balanced, fresh, and luminous summer routines. Here's how to adapt your Korean skincare routine for summer with products available in our shop.

Why adapt your kbeauty routine in summer?

In summer, skin sweats more and produces more sebum. A routine that's too rich can clog pores, cause blemishes, or make skin shine. Conversely, a routine that's too harsh can dehydrate skin, especially after sun exposure.

K-beauty focuses on lightweight textures, soothing active ingredients, and essential sun protection . It promotes healthy, radiant skin without excess oil.

Step 1: Gentle and effective cleansing

Even in summer, don't skip double cleansing. It helps remove SPF, perspiration, fine particles, and excess sebum.

• Light Cleansing Oil : Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil effectively cleanses without greasing or irritating.
• Gentle Cleanser : Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam purifies without stripping, ideal for sensitive or combination skin.

This duo cleanses deeply while respecting the skin barrier.

Step 2: Hydrating and Soothing Toner

A refreshing toner soothes sun-heated skin and rebalances its pH after cleansing. In summer, opt for watery, light, and non-sticky textures.

• Anua Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner : A classic to calm irritation, reduce redness and prepare the skin for hydration.
• Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Toner (AHA + BHA) : perfect for gently exfoliating and refining skin texture.

These toners are perfect for tightening pores and providing an immediate feeling of freshness.

Step 3: Targeted Lightweight Serum

There's no need to use multiple serums in summer. Just one, well-formulated serum is enough to meet your essential needs: radiance, hydration, soothing, and blemish prevention.

• Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum Propolis + Niacinamide : a perfect combo to soothe and brighten the skin without overloading.
• Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule : ideal if your skin is sensitized or prone to redness, especially after sun exposure.

These serums penetrate quickly, without a greasy effect, and restore radiance and comfort to the skin.

Step 4: Ultra-light moisturizer

Even in summer, you shouldn't skip moisturizing. It helps the skin maintain its balance and defend itself against external aggressions.

• Anua Heartleaf 70% Intense Calming Cream : Ultra-light gel-cream texture, perfect for combination or acne-prone skin.
• Beauty of Joseon Red Bean Water Gel : Deeply moisturizes without a sticky feeling, with a pleasant mattifying effect.

These moisturizers are non-comedogenic and ideal for hot or humid climates.

Step 5: SPF, the essential for summer (and all year round)

No summer kbeauty routine is complete without sunscreen . It protects the skin from photoaging, dark spots, and sebum oxidation.

• Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF50+ PA++++ : Moisturizing, lightweight, no-white-finish sunscreen, perfect for daily use.
• Skin1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++ : protects while moisturizing, fluid and pleasant texture.

Korean sunglasses stand out for their comfort, advanced technology, and ability to blend into any routine.

Complementary care for a summer glow

In addition to the basic kbeauty routine, you can integrate:

• Sheet masks : Use 1 to 2 times a week to quickly soothe or moisturize. Example: Centella Asiatica Sheet Mask from Beauty of Joseon .
• Anti-blemish patches : discreet and effective for treating a localized spot.
• Hydrating Mists : Perfect for refreshing and rehydrating skin during the day, especially after the beach or a sunny commute.

Tip: Minimalist routine, maximum efficiency

In summer, there's no need to overuse products. A well-thought-out kbeauty routine can be summed up in 4 or 5 steps. The secret lies in the quality of the formulas and their adaptation to your skin's needs .

Adopting a minimalist approach helps avoid overusing active ingredients, which are often a source of summer irritation. Your skin will be more balanced, more comfortable, and naturally radiant.
