How to Start a Glow Routine: K-Beauty Basics for Beginners

Welcome to The Glow Journal, your new favourite corner of the internet for all things skincare, self-care, and glow-up magic.

If you’ve been eyeing that radiant, glass-skin look but have no idea where to begin  you’re in the right place. At Glow by Nancy, we believe that skincare is more than just routine… it’s  a ritual. And with Korean skincare, it’s all about nourishing your skin with love, patience, and glow-boosting ingredients.

Here’s a simple starter guide to help you build your own glow routine:
1. Start with a Gentle Cleanser
Every glow-up begins with a clean canvas. Choose a low pH, non-stripping cleanser that removes dirt and oil without messing with your skin barrier.

2. Don’t Skip the Toner
K-beauty toners are all about hydration. They prep your skin for better absorption and help balance moisture levels  essential for that dewy look.

3. Layer On Essence or Serum
This is where the magic happens. Whether you’re targeting dullness, texture, or breakouts, essences and serums deliver powerful ingredients deep into the skin.

4. Lock It In with Moisturizer
Hydration is everything. Even oily skin types need a good moisturizer — just opt for lightweight formulas that won’t clog pores.

5. Never Forget Sunscreen
The golden rule: SPF, every single day. It’s the ultimate anti-aging step and the key to protecting your glow.
Glow Tip:
Start simple. You don’t need a 10-step routine right away. Begin with 3-4 core steps and build from there based on your skin’s needs.

Final Words:
At Glow by Nancy, we carefully curate every product with your skin in mind.  Clean formulas, cruelty-free, and glow-approved.
This is just the beginning of your glow journey and we’re so glad to be part of it.

Stay radiant,
Nancy.
