Introducing

When less is more in skincare

For years, K-Beauty was synonymous with elaborate 10-step routines. But today, a new wave is taking over: minimalist skincare. With busy lifestyles, eco-consious choices, and the skin's natural ability to restore itself, trends like skin-care and skin fasting are gaining populariry

What is "Skin fasting"?

Skin fasting takes minimalism even further. The idea is to let your skin "rest" by reducing or pausing products for a few nights or even a week.

The Goal?

  • Allow skin to reset its natural barrier.
  • Reduce product overload or irritation.
  • Identify what your skin really need.

⚠️Tip: Skin fasting doesn't mean neglect. Always keep the basics: gentle cleanser + light hydration
