Start by setting aside any products you’re no longer sure you need. For a simple base, gentle cleansing, a suitable moisturizer and sunscreen during the day are often enough. Toners, essences and multiple serums are optional extras – they don’t all have to go on your skin at once.

In the evening, remove makeup and sunscreen thoroughly but gently, then apply your moisturizer. In the morning, cleanse as your skin needs, follow with moisturizer if you need it, then sunscreen. If a generous layer of sunscreen already feels nourishing enough, you can skip the separate moisturizer underneath – but that doesn’t reduce how much sunscreen you need.

If you have a moisturizer you like, keep it. If you’re looking for one, the Pyunkang Yul Moisture Cream is one option. Where possible, change one step at a time so you can tell what you miss. Don’t stop using products prescribed by your doctor on your own.
