Korean skincare for men: Four calming, moisturising and brightening products great for sensitive skin

  • By Shelton Chang

Although South Korean men may be proof that it is all right to be a SNAG, never let sensitive skin get the best of you.

Huxley Grab Water Essence

This refreshing essence is made for tired skin. It contains 85 per cent Sahara cactus extract along with peppermint and grapefruit extracts, which keep the skin soft and supple. Sahara cactus seed oil, a non-comedogenic ingredient high in vitamin E, protects the skin from stress and slows down the signs of ageing.

TroiAreuke GPS Mask

Korean social media influencers are fans of this for its calming and moisturising properties. The three-step product contains a cleanser, mask, and finishing cream. It contains gold extracts and witch hazel that tighten, smoothen and calm the skin. The mask also has a firming and plumping effect.

CosRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser

Tired of skin redness and irritation? This gel cleanser contains BHA, which cleanses and exfoliates without exacerbating skin sensitivity. It’s gentle in removing sebum, dirt, and sunscreen. The low pH ensures that the skin is optimally balanced, leaving it soothed and hydrated.

Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule

Snail mucin is touted as one of nature’s best anti-inflammatory and acne-clearing ingredients. This ampoule, formulated with 80 per cent snail filtrate, is also packed with active ingredients like hyaluronic acid and antioxidantrich cocoa that leaves skin smooth and rejuvenated.
