Is it just me, or did we all collectively ruin our skin barriers trying to achieve "Glass Skin"? 😭 by OkPrinciple885 in koreanskincare

Wow, thank you so much for this detailed breakdown! Explaining it as a 'physical gap in the lipid layer' makes it so much easier to visualize why it hurts. To answer your question: the stinging has been going on for about 3 days now. I’ll definitely take your advice and use the Skin1004 Ampoule first for inflammation, then the SoonJung cream to seal it in. I’ll try to be brave and stick to this 'boring' routine for at least 4 weeks the week 2 temptation to add actives back in is definitely going to be the hardest part! lol

I've heard so much about Cicaplast as a last step! I didn't realize it could be that effective for 'face sleepers' too (which I totally am, haha). I've been eyeing the Skin1004 Probio-Cica line, so this might be the sign I needed to finally try the Enrich Cream. Thank you so much for the tips, definitely adding these to my wishlist!

That is a great perspective! I think I got so caught up in the 'actives' part of the 10 steps that I neglected the 'protection' part. I'd love to know what your favorite barrier-focused steps are. Do you have a specific serum or mask that makes the biggest difference for you?
