Medicube-focused skincare routine for dry sensitive skin
A routine for dry sensitive skin built around Medicube products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.
Cleansers, moisturizers, serums, and masks with glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides help lock in moisture to ease flakiness and tightness, while steps with niacinamide and centella asiatica extract soothe redness and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.
The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while the skin rests and is away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week to add deeper steps like exfoliation and masks that help smooth dry sensitive skin and address flakiness and fine lines.
