Effective removal of dead skin, provided by exfoliation, facilitates the absorption of moisturizing products, and will help you get a smooth and silky skin.

5. Essence

Whether it’s acne, wrinkles, big pores or stains, choose the right serum for you. This is the stage in which you perfect your skin!
7. Sheet Masks

The skin around the eyes is much thinner and delicate and needs special treatment. An eye cream provides extra hydration and protection for this area.
9. Face cream
This is the most important skin care step in getting a shiny skin. Various variants are available for skin hydration: emulsion, lotion, gel or cream. Choose the best option for you and keep in mind the needs of your skin.

Overnight mask can be found in a lot of variants, and act as a barrier and sealant. Preventing dust and dirt from closing in on pores, locks in the skin the products used in the previous steps and increases their effectiveness.
