5 Korean Skincare Ingredients You Need To Create The Ideal Skincare Routine

Active, natural and botanical ingredients are the cornerstones of Korean skincare. As a Korean skincare brand that specialises in Indian skin, we strive for innovation while using these ingredients and being mindful of what we use to craft our products. Here are a few superstars that'll give you the skin of your dreams! 

Cica 

Also known as Centella Asiatic or tiger grass, this plant-derived ingredient is by no means new. This Asian plant is believed to soothe and repair irritated skin as it is chock full of amino acids, beta-carotene, fatty acids, and a bewildering number of vitamins. All of this together stimulates collagen production – which in turn helps your skin heal any irritation or damage. This is just one part of what cica does. This little miracle plant also fights off signs of premature ageing by boosting blood circulation and aiding in cellular repair.
Pick from effective zit patches, a cooling under eye cream, skin-clearing sheet mask, a gently exfoliating overnight mask and a beautifully light essence!

Cherry Blossom
Ah, Japan’s best-kept secret, the cherry blossom. These pretty little flowers are full of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, making them a godsend for those with sensitive skin. This elixir is soothing to irritated skin, as it reduces redness and promotes healing. It also smoothens skin and fights hyperpigmentation, owing to its high concentration of vitamin C. Sakura, as it is also known, helps repair damaged skin with its rich content of essential fatty acids.

Rice Water 
Filled with essential amino acids, and so many nutrients, this ingredient is said to give you porcelain-like skin with regular use. Rice water, a kitchen staple, has so many benefits! It improves skin texture, prevents hyperpigmentation and improves skin elasticity. Rice water also illuminates, firms and tightens skin to appear refreshed and reduces pore size, leaving velvety soft skin behind. Plus, it is a great source of vitamin B, E and C, which evens out skin tone, fights hyperpigmentation and stimulates collagen production, making your skin firmer and brighter. Also, it is great for keeping your skin hydrated!
