Juicy skin, also known as 'choc-choc' skin, refers to plump, glowy, and well-moisturized skin. The skin's juicy and healthy plump appearance inspired the tasty-sounding 'choc-choc' skin term.

"In order to achieve it, you want to make sure that your skin is drenched with hydrating ingredients, enveloped with the right amount of lipids regulating sebum, thus creating the right water-oil balance."

Ridding your skin's surface of dead skin cells and other build-up is essential for making the most of your regime. A clean base assisted by regular exfoliation with a low concentration exfoliant will offer a clean base.

When you've got the hang of exfoliating your skin at least three times a week, you're good to go. Cleanse your face of stubborn makeup and SPF with an oil-based cleanser to avoid stripping the skin of useful proteins.

Steps Three And Four: Second Cleanse And Tone

K Beauty is all about double cleansing, so you should opt for a creamy foam-based cleanser for this step. This step removes residue and gives the skin a deep clean, but be careful not to use drying cleansers.

Toners are so much more than pore shrinking products these days; they can also be hydrating to the skin. A great, hydrating toner will also help your skin absorb products much better, so do not skip this step.

Steps Five And Six: Serum Treatment And Water Cream

Applying a serum is one of the most critical steps for getting juicy skin. The key is to use a serum that addresses your skin's specific issues to promote the best brightening and plumping results.

Both Japanese Beauty and K Beauty thrive on multiple hydrating layers. A water-based moisturizing solution will keep your skin hydrated from the inside out, resulting in a shining, smooth complexion.

The Final Step: Moisturize!

Once you've replenished your skin with water hydration, it is time to take it a step further with an oil formula. Non-comedogenic oil moisturizers seal in all the efforts you've worked on without clogging pores.

The best thing about these extended K Beauty skin techniques is that they force you to take some time out. Enjoy your skincare routine and treat it as a self-care regime because you are worth all the pampering.
