Step 1: Preparation

Wet your face with warm water to open pores and prepare the skin for deep cleansing.

Step 2: Application

Dispense a small amount of KOOR Dermo-Cleanser into your hands. If it is a powder cleanser, mix with a few drops of water until it forms a light foam. If it is a gel or cream cleanser, apply it directly to damp skin.

Step 3: Massage

Gently massage the product into your face using circular movements, focusing on areas that tend to accumulate more oil and impurities, such as the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin).

Step 4: Rinse

Rinse your face thoroughly with warm water, making sure to remove all product residue.

Step 5: Drying

Dry your face with a clean, soft towel, patting gently to avoid irritating the skin.

Step 6: Hydration

Continue your skincare routine by applying one of our KOOR serums and your favorite moisturizer to seal in the cleansing and keep your skin radiant.

How to Use KOOR Serums

KOOR offers a complete skincare routine designed to revitalize, protect and beautify your skin with high-quality ingredients and innovative formulations. Here's how to integrate our serums into your daily routine:

Step 1: Cleaning

Start your routine with clean skin using one of our KOOR dermo-cleansers. This prepares your skin to better absorb the benefits of the serums.

Step 2: Application of Serums

KOOR offers three specific serums for different skin needs. Here's how to use them:

1. Moisturizing Serum with Hyaluronic Acid:

   • Application: Dispense 2-3 drops into the palm of your hand and apply all over your face. Focus on areas that tend to be drier, such as the cheeks and forehead.
   • Benefits: This serum is formulated to deeply hydrate the skin, retaining moisture and providing a feeling of freshness and softness throughout the day.

2. Antioxidant Serum with Vitamin C:

   • Application: Use 2-3 drops in the morning on clean skin, applying to the face with emphasis on areas that show signs of sun damage or uneven pigmentation.
   • Benefits: This serum helps protect your skin from free radicals, brightens skin tone and reduces the appearance of dark spots, leaving it more radiant and even.

3. Firming Serum with Peptides:

   • Application: Apply 2-3 drops at night, concentrating on areas prone to loss of elasticity, such as expression lines around the eyes and mouth.
   • Benefits: This serum is designed to firm and tone the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, providing a more youthful appearance.

Step 3: Massage

Regardless of which serum you choose, gently massage the product into your skin using upward, circular motions. This not only improves absorption, but also promotes healthy circulation.

Step 4: Wait and Hydrate

Wait a few minutes to allow the serum to fully absorb before applying any other products. Follow with your usual moisturizer to seal in the benefits of the serum and protect your skin throughout the day or night.

Complete KOOR Routine

For best results, we recommend using KOOR serums as part of a complete daily routine, both morning and night. The combination of cleansing, serum treatment and moisturising will ensure your skin stays healthy, radiant and protected against environmental factors.
