Dry Skin

Dry skin is easy to identify with visible signs such as rough or flaky patches, tightness after cleansing, and a dull or lackluster appearance. It may also exhibit redness, irritation, or small cracks, especially in cold weather or low-humidity environments. Dry skin often feels itchy or uncomfortable, and makeup may not apply evenly, emphasizing fine lines and dry areas. If your skin feels tight, appears ashy or scaly, or soaks up moisturizer quickly, these are clear signs of dryness.

Look for products with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which deeply hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier. Snail mucin is another K-beauty favorite for its soothing and reparative properties, while centella asiatica (cica) calms irritation and boosts moisture retention. Fermented ingredients, such as rice extract or galactomyces, improve skin texture and hydration. Finish your routine with a rich sleeping mask to lock in moisture overnight, leaving your skin soft, plump, and radiant by morning.
