What Korean Women do to get that flawless skin...

Secrets of Korean Beauty - These are observations based on my trip to Korea and interview with
beauty industry experts and surveys with the average Korean woman with great skin. 

1.      Use upward and outward strokes when washing face instead of vertical and downward strokes which promotes sagging and loosen the facial muscles.  Defy gravity by keeping your skin 'strong' and lifted.  

2.      Use lots of whitening products.  Many Korean women use tons of whitening and brightening products to reduce pigmentation and keep their face looking ‘porcelain’.   Unfortunately, it has been looked down upon to look dark especially in the face in most Asian countries.

3.      Always use SPF, all year round.  Ever notice when you’re golfing and all the Korean ladies wear the WIDE brimmed visors?  They are meticulous about avoiding the sun.  The sun not only damages the skin, increasing the chance of skin cancer, but also contributes to uneven skin pigmentation, potential rashes due to allergy or heat rashes (small bumps), blemishes and especially premature aging.  The Korean women wear SPF on their face, ears, neck (fully covered) when going out.  <<Keep in mind that one needs vitamin D from the sun, so you’ll need to balance your vitamin intake with blemish management!>>.   If you’re looking for a sunblock, try to use one that’s already built into your coverup. Most BB Creams (Blemish Balms) has adequate SPF coverage.  Apply 15 min before going in the sun and apply every few hours if in the sun for a long time.

4.      A typical  woman has 16-18 beauty products!  Korean women dedicate at least half an hour in the morning and also at night to care for their skin.  There is a strong correlation between those who spend time and care for their skin and those with skin that is youthful and vibrant.

5.      They cleanse their skin VERY well to prevent buildup, blemishes and pre-empt acne.  They also moisturize very well and use lots of different essences, serums, gels and use masks very frequently.  Masks typically nourish the skin with variety of vitamins and antioxidants. 

And even when they step out to the grocery store wearing track pants and a hat, their face is still perfect!
