Moisturizers

The moisturizer is the step that holds everything else in. Get it right and the rest of your routine works harder; get it wrong and skin stays tight or feels greasy all day.

At Skin28 you'll find gel creams, ceramide barrier creams and rich night creams across every skin type.

Frequently asked questions

Why do you need a moisturizer?

+

A moisturizer locks in the hydration applied earlier and supports the skin barrier with lipids such as ceramides. Skipping it means the water from your toner and serum evaporates rather than staying in the skin.

Which moisturizer suits my skin type?

+

Oily and combination skin usually does best with a light gel cream, dry skin with a ceramide-rich cream, and sensitive skin with a fragrance-free barrier formula. Take the routine quiz if you'd like a recommendation.

Do oily skin types need a moisturizer?

+

Yes. Skipping moisturizer can leave skin dehydrated, which often prompts it to produce more oil. A lightweight gel cream hydrates without the heaviness that oily skin tends to dislike.

Should you use a different cream at night?

+

Not necessarily, though many people prefer something richer in the evening since there's no makeup or sunscreen to layer over it. A sleeping mask two or three nights a week is a common alternative.

How much moisturizer should you apply?

+

Roughly a pea to almond-sized amount for the whole face, patted in while skin is still slightly damp. If it pills, you've either used too much or layered it over a product that hasn't absorbed.

Buy Korean Moisturizers at Skin28

A moisturizer seals in the hydration from your toner and serum and supplies the lipids the skin barrier needs to hold onto it. Without that final step, water applied earlier in the routine simply evaporates again.

The range runs from light gel creams for oily and combination skin, through ceramide-rich barrier creams for dry and reactive skin, to heavier night creams and sleeping masks. Korean formulas tend to be lighter than their Western equivalents, so layering two thin ones often beats one heavy one.
