Feb 10, 2023
Glad to see you here with us again, lovelies!
We have tons more to talk about the incredible products of the Dokdo line.
(If you're new to the guide, welcome! This is a two-part series, so to access part 1, you can click right here to learn about Round Lab Dokdo's cleansing and purifying solutions.)
In part 2, it's all about skincare that conditions your skin.
As you may be aware, we are CRAAAAZYY about hydration and moisturization, so it'll be quite a list ahead. That means there is something for everyone in our treasure trove.
Without further ado, let's hop to it!
Hydration when it hits hot and humid: Dokdo Toner, Dokdo Lotion
Can we all agree that summer is the most dreadful season for combination and oily skin? Dull, leathery skin with a topping of oil slick just doesn't spark joy. It's screaming dehydration, and it's time for you to Marie Kondo it out.
With Dokdo Toner and Dokdo Lotion, chucking out dehydration is as simple as chugging these Round Lab's specialized drinks onto your skin.
And yet, quenching your dehydrated skin is just one of many different ways these products can serve you.
1025 Dokdo Toner
There's simply not enough space on this post for us to talk about our love for toners, much less Dokdo Toner. It's our most well-known and best-selling product after all.
But we'll give you our best shot.
What to love:
- Supercharged water for sensitive, eczema-prone skin: Concentrated with healing magic from Ulleungdo Sea minerals and irritation relief goodies - Allantoin, Betaine, Panthenol, this potion sinks in and revitalizes your skin for a brighter, even complexion and a more resilient skin barrier.
- Quickflash absorbency: No stickiness, like at all!
- Smooth skin without flakiness or irritation: The toner contains our patented exfoliating Protease enzyme, which is accommodating for even the most sensitive skin.
Tips: For plump, dewy skin, use Dokdo toner with the 7-skin method.
1025 Dokdo Lotion
No greasiness, no frills, this lotion gives you a simple, balanced hydration that won't make you dread putting it on during humid summer days.
What to love:
- A perfect touch of balanced moisture: Fusing a group of all-star Hyaluronic Acid types and Squalane, the Dokdo Lotion replenishes your dehydrated skin and gives you a satin-like complexion.
- Lightweight yet long-lasting: It delivers a 24-hour moisture barrier with Hydrogenated Polydecene, Macadamia Oil, and Jojoba Esters in a thin, milky essence-like texture.
Tips: To achieve smooth, glowy makeup without filters, mix the Dokdo Lotion with your foundation in a ratio of 1:1 or 2:1.
Water bomb in a bottle: Dokdo Ampoule
Have dry skin that never seems to drink enough or dry patches every now and then? The Dokdo Ampoule will blast your concern far and away.
What to love:
- Watery in texture yet bountiful in skin nutrients: The formula marries Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Hydrogenated Lecithin, and Algae Extract to swiftly plump up dryness and dehydration creases. It also contains Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate, Betaine, and Panthenol to calm skin irritation and fight against inflammation.
- Repairs compromised skin barrier: The ampoule has Ceramide NP to help heal and fortify the skin barrier.
Tips: For combination - dry skin, use the ampoule as a booster with your moisturizer.
Dry skin, dry weather must-have: Dokdo Cream
Dry skin, extremely dry, sensitive skin, and compromised skin barrier.
If you fall into either of these categories, the Dokdo Cream is what you've been looking for.
What to love:
- Patch up damaged skin barrier: Enriched with 4 Ceramides, Cholesterol, and Phytosphingosine, this cream is the Avengers team of skin barrier reinforcement.
- Quell skin dryness and calm skin sensitivity: While Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid fill up the skin with hydration, the trio of Allantoin, Panthenol, and Beta Glucan carries soothing waves to relieve red, irritated skin.
- Breathable wrap to prevent TEWL: When dry weather hits dry skin, you need a physical barrier to fight against Transepidermal Water Loss. Come Methyl Trimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, and Caprylyl Methicone.
These silicones are not to be feared. Though they create a thin film on your skin, this barrier is permeable and essential for combating moisture loss. And with Shea Butter, the Dokdo Cream gives you supple, dry crease-free, and healthy skin throughout the autumn and winter months.
Tips: A word of wisdom from Instagram's favorite dermatologist - Dr. Shereen Idriss: Layer a Glycerin-based cream under saran wrap to moisturize and smooth out under eye area.
