Here's a Song Kang-approved skincare routine for men!

Skincare brand Deoproce just launched Korean Hallyu star Song Kang as its ambassador.

At the launch on Wednesday, the Korean heartthrob in a recorded video message, said "he can't leave the house" without doing his skincare, noting that he needs to keep his skin clean and hydrated throughout the day.

It's true. In this day and age, and especially at a pandemic when things like "maskne" pose a real skin concern for everybody, men should seriously get into skin care as well.

Don't worry, it's nothing like the 10-step skincare routine that's gotten so popular over the years.

For Song Kang, it's only about applying straightforward yet effective products that works.

According to board-certified dermatologist Jarische Lao-Ang, the basic rule in skincare is to "apply the thinnest to thickest."

That would mean starting with a cleanser, and then a peeling gel, toner, moisturizer, sunscreen in the morning.

If you're looking to start your skincare routine like Song Kang, here are five steps and products to have and follow:

1. A facial cleanser removes skin dirt like dead skin cells, excess oil, and pollutants to prevent skin from clogged pores.

2. After cleansing the face, you may use a peeling gel to exfoliate and dissolve dead skin cells and unclog pores further.

3. After cleansing and exfoliating, a toner removes further traces of dirt and impurities on the face.

4. A serum is a concentrated liquid containing active ingredients targeting specific skin concerns like acne, excessive oil, pore enlargements, and dry skin.

5. Lastly, you should not forget to use sunscreen in the morning to protect your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays. It helps prevent sunburn and premature aging, which causes wrinkles and leathery skin.

It's easy and it's good for you, no? — LA, GMA News
