I Followed a K-Beauty Skin-Care Routine For a Month — and Let's Just Say I'm a Fan

Double cleansing is one of the hallmarks to a Korean beauty skin-care routine. The idea is that both cleansers (first oil-based, then water-based), well, cleanse your face, but each will rid your skin of different impurities. While I'm a self-proclaimed oil-cleansing advocate (I historically do so with a mix of castor oil and sunflower seed oil), I personally didn't see the need to double cleanse twice a day. Instead, I only went in with Peach Slices's Pudding Makeup Cleanser ($10) nightly.
Let the record show that I only wore makeup twice this entire 27 day period (which is unlike me – I blame COVID), but found this effective in removing other oily products from the day such as my essence and sunscreen. Plus, it starts off your routine with a buttery-textured bang.
