4. Neck cream

What is the use of a radiant face when you have an ugly neck? The skin on the neck is as sensitive as the skin on your face. That is why; it needs to be nourished with a neck cream daily. The Korean women, however, have gone a step further. Not only do they apply the cream on their neck, they apply it all the way up to their décolletage.

5. Exercise your facial muscles

The women in Korea chant ‘Ma Me Mi Mo Mu’ ten times a day to exercise their cheek muscles. They also stretch their facial muscles and take deep breaths to ensure that their skin does not start sagging the day they turn 40.

6. Day and night moisturiser

Your skin has different needs throughout the day. In the mornings and afternoons, it needs protection from the sun but once the night sets in, it needs to be nourished and replenished with essential oils. That is why; they invest in a separate day and night moisturiser.

7. Hydration, healthy eating and beauty sleep

A beauty secret that the entire world believes and follows is drinking plenty of water and eating healthy food. Koreans tend to eat foods that have low sodium content as it helps maintain the water level in their body. They also drink a glass of water everytime they get up from their seat and splash their face with cold water. Also, they never compromise on their beauty sleep!

8. Tap to tone

The Koreans tap their toner with their fingertips onto their skin as they believe that this facilitates better absorption.
