The Art of J-Beauty: DHC 4-Step Regimen
Simple and rooted in tradition, the DHC 4-step skincare ritual
gives you permission to slow down and care for your skin in a thoughtful way.
With 2 steps to cleanse and 2 steps to moisturize, skin is left perfectly
cleansed and optimally hydrated.
Step 1: Oil Cleanser
An oil-based cleanser is the ultimate hydrating facial cleanser. It effortlessly dissolves sebum, removes
all traces of makeup (including waterproof mascara and sunscreen), and leaves
skin fresh and clean with zero residue. Apply with dry hands on a dry face,
gently massage skin and then rinse with warm water.
Step 2: Foaming Cleanser
This second step uses a water-based cleanser to lather away remaining impurities like sweat and pollution without stripping your skin’s natural moisture. Wet your
face with lukewarm water and create a foaming lather
in your palms. Massage over skin to deeply cleanse and rinse away.
Step 3: Apply Serum
Facial serums are an essential step in moisturizing. It adds back the first light layer of hydration and prep skin for the deeper layer of moisturization and benefits that follows.
Apply by gently patting onto face.
Step 4: Moisturizer
The final step in the Japanese 4-step skincare ritual is moisturizer. It locks in the hydration provided by liquid lotion and adds a deeper layer of intense, nutrient-rich moisturization that’s easily absorbed
while skin is still damp. Apply evenly to skin that has been prepped with liquid lotion.
