As the seasons change, your skin’s needs shift too. Think of your skincare routine like your wardrobe—you wouldn't wear a parka in July or a sundress in January. Transitioning your products ensures your skin barrier remains resilient against fluctuating humidity, temperature, and UV levels.
Here is a guide to navigating the seasons using three of Korea’s most prestigious professional lines: KRX Aesthetics, Dermathod, and Corthe.
🌸 Spring: The Great "Skin Detox"
Spring is about waking up the skin after a long winter. We want to shed dead skin cells that cause dullness and prep the skin for increased humidity.
The Goal: Gentle exfoliation and lightweight hydration.
The Routine Transition:
Exfoliate: Swap heavy winter exfoliants for Dermathod Priming Booster Peel Pads. They use PHA and LHA to gently "spring clean" your pores without irritation.
Hydrate: Use Corthe Dermo Essential Soothing Toner to balance pH and add a light layer of moisture.
Revitalize: Apply KRX All Day Glow Vitamin Serum to brighten the complexion and fight off seasonal environmental stressors.
☀️ Summer: Shield & Cool
In summer, heat increases sebum production and UV rays are at their peak. Your routine should focus on oil control, cooling, and maximum protection.
The Goal: Oil-free hydration and sun defense.
The Routine Transition:
Cleanse: Use Dermathod Revive Cleansing Gel—it removes sweat and excess oil while keeping the skin’s moisture intact.
Cool: Keep Corthe Ice Soothing Gel in the fridge. It’s a lifesaver for cooling down "overheated" skin after a day outdoors.
Protect: KRX Sunblocker SPF 50+ is non-negotiable. It’s lightweight enough for humidity but strong enough for the beach.
🍂 Autumn: Repair & Prepare
As the air turns crisp, we need to repair summer sun damage (hyperpigmentation) and begin "bulking up" the skin barrier for the cold months ahead.
The Goal: Pigment correction and barrier strengthening.
The Routine Transition:
Treat: Introduce KRX Mela Defense Whitening Serum to fade any sunspots or "summer memories" left on the skin.
Repair: Use Dermathod Ami-Sterol Cream. It contains essential lipids that act like "glue" for your skin cells, preventing moisture from escaping as humidity drops.
Nourish: Switch to Corthe Cleansing Milk for a creamier, more comforting evening cleanse.
❄️ Winter: The Ultimate Moisture Wrap
Winter air and indoor heating are the enemies of glowing skin. This season is all about "slugging" with high-quality ingredients and preventing trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL).
The Goal: Intense nourishment and "barrier-first" care.
The Routine Transition:
Layer: Apply Corthe Bifida Probiotic Ampoule under your moisturizer. Probiotics act as a winter coat for your skin’s microbiome.
Seal: Use KRX Cica Recovery All Day Cream. Cica is world-famous for healing "chapped" or wind-burned skin.
Mask: Once a week, use the Dermathod Revive Triple Action Mask for a deep-infusion of nutrients that home-care creams alone can't provide.
How to Transition Without Breaking Out
When moving between seasons, don't swap everything at once! Change one product every 3–5 days to let your skin acclimate.
