If you’ve been on TikTok lately, you’ll have seen that Korean skincare has been exploding in popularity.
Searches for Korean skincare routines have gone up 550% since the beginning of July, and TikTok views of Korean skincare are currently at 3.5 billion views and counting, making it one of the biggest beauty trends of the year. Rather than using harsh chemicals that strip your skin of its natural moisture barrier, Korean skincare is all about hydration, leaving you with balanced, nourished and healthy skin that has a glass-like finish.
The unusual ingredient replenishes dry and damaged skin, as well as reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and although some people have mixed feelings about the source of the miracle ingredient, it’s been lauded as one of the best products in a K-beauty routine. The HolikaHolika Good Cera Super Ceramide Foaming Wash, £18.65 here, is the perfect first step in your daily face washing routine, as it not only removes all the dirt and oils from your skin, but also regulates sebum production and balances your complexion, helping to treat everything from acne to dull skin.
