About Korean Double Cleansing Sets
Korean double cleansing is a two-step process that first dissolves makeup and sunscreen with an oil-based cleanser, followed by a water-based cleanser to remove residual impurities. Sets are thoughtfully curated to provide both steps with complementary products, ensuring skin is deeply cleansed yet hydrated and soothed.

Do not over-rub your skin while cleansing; gentle massaging is enough. For sensitive skin, choose fragrance-free or hypoallergenic sets. Double cleansing is most effective in the evening to remove accumulated dirt and sunscreen.

Will double cleansing strip my skin?
When done with gentle formulas suited for your skin type, double cleansing cleans thoroughly without stripping essential moisture.
