The best Korean serum options are easier to find than you think.
No matter where you are in your skincare journey, you could probably do with a bit of Korean skincare. They just know what the heck they’re doing, and encouraging consumers to ask what ceramide skincare is, anyway, and then use it—deeply. With a focus on layers of hydration and being gentle to your skin, it’s really hard to go wrong.
Today we’re covering the best Korean serum picks because you need several in your life.
Should we have a chat real quick about how to use a Korean serum? Serums are used as a targeted treatment so not all serums do the same thing. Some erase sun damage, others can make hands look younger, and others are instant and inexpensive fruit facials.
In a Korean skincare routine you would use a serum after cleansing and toning.
Gently pat in your perfect serum choice and then move on to eye cream and moisturizer. Easy enough! Also, before we get into the 11 best Korean serum showdown, I should note that serum and ampule are pretty much interchangeable.
