Frequently Asked Questions

Should I change my skincare with the seasons?

Yes. In Korea, seasonal skincare adjustment is standard practice. Switch to lighter textures in summer and richer moisturizers in winter. Transition gradually over 2-3 weeks rather than switching everything at once.

Do I need sunscreen in winter?

Yes. UVA rays (which cause wrinkles) are present year-round. Daily sunscreen is common practice in Korea all year.

What's the most important seasonal skincare tip?

Maintaining your moisture barrier. Light hydration to control oil in summer, ceramides to strengthen the barrier in winter. Protecting the barrier all year is a basic rule in Korean skincare.
