Pollution, UV rays, and daily stressors can weaken your skin barrier, leading to dullness, breakouts, and premature aging. At Glowvanna, we believe in a double-defense approach—protect by day, repair by night—for skin that stays resilient and radiant.
Here’s your science-backed, K-beauty-approved routine to shield and revive your skin from urban aggressors.
☀️ AM Routine: Pollution Armor
Prep your skin to fight smog, blue light, and UV damage.
1. Cleanse Gently
→ Rice Water Brightening Cleanser
- Removes overnight buildup without stripping.
- Rice bran enzymes gently exfoliate for a smooth base.
2. Tone & Neutralize Free Radicals
→ Anti-Pollution Rice Water Toner
- Layers hydration while neutralizing pollutants (thanks to antioxidants like niacinamide).
3. Antioxidant Serum Shield
→ Advanced Snail Mucin 96 Serum
- Snail mucin repairs barrier damage and locks in moisture.
- Optional boost: Vitamin C serum (brightens + combats oxidative stress).
4. Hydrate & Fortify
→ Rice Water Brightening Cream
- Lightweight moisture with fermented rice extract to strengthen skin.
5. SPF + Pollution Block (MOST CRUCIAL STEP!)
→ Pollution Protect SPF 50+ Sunscreen
- Physical/mineral SPF (zinc oxide) blocks UVA/UVB and pollution particles.
- Reapply every 2-3 hours if outdoors!
(Pro Tip: Wear a wide-brimmed hat for extra defense!)
🌙 PM Routine: Deep Detox & Repair
Undo daily damage and recharge skin overnight.
1. Double Cleanse (Non-Negotiable!)
→ Step 1: 24K Gold Face Wash (melts makeup/pollution)
→ Step 2: Snail Mucin Cleanser (gentle, pH-balanced cleanse)
2. Exfoliate (2-3x Weekly)
→ Ginseng + AHA Peel Mask
- Gently sloughs off dead skin and pollution buildup.
3. Repairing Toner
→ Rice Water Brightening Toner
- Preps skin for better absorption of actives.
4. Night Serum Treatment
→ Rice Water Brightening Elixir Serum
- Fermented rice extract brightens, while peptides repair.
5. Overnight Recovery Mask
→ Collagen Anti-Aging Face Mask (2-3x weekly)
- Plumps fine lines and rebuilds collagen while you sleep.
6. Seal It In
→ Advanced Snail 92 All-in-One Cream
- Snail mucin + hyaluronic acid accelerate healing.
(Pro Tip: Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and irritation!)
