Korean skincare is famous for its layered approach: lightweight steps that create powerful results when combined.
At Dr. Melaxin, we’ve adapted this method using high-performance Korean actives such as rice extract, kojic acid, turmeric, niacinamide, calcium B12 and micro-spicules — to deliver visible transformation in texture, tone, glow and firmness.
Here is the official 7-step Dr. Melaxin K-Beauty routine, customized to match each product in our collection.
⭐ STEP 1 — Exfoliation & Skin Reset (2–3× per week)
This is the foundation of every Korean routine.
Instead of harsh scrubbing, we use micro-exfoliation to smooth texture, brighten the complexion and increase absorption of the next steps.
Use:
-
Peel Shot Glow White Rice Ampoule (gentle daily glow)
-
Peel Shot Glow Black Rice Ampoule (deep texture & pore refining)
-
Kojic Acid Turmeric Serum (pigmentation + uneven tone)

Benefits:
✔ Removes dead skin buildup
✔ Minimizes blackheads
✔ Reveals a brighter, cleaner complexion
✔ Prepares the skin for treatment serums
White Rice = glow.
Black Rice = pores & texture.
Turmeric = dark spots & pigmentation.
⭐ STEP 2 — Deep Skin Renewal (Micro-Spicule Treatment)
This step accelerates cell turnover the Korean way — gentle but powerful.

The micro-spicules act like ultra-fine micro-needles to stimulate collagen, tighten pores and renew the skin’s surface.

Use 2–3× per week after exfoliation for maximum effect.
⭐ STEP 3 — Brightening & Tone Correction
This is the Korean step focused on even skin tone, discoloration, and post-blemish marks.
Use:
-
Cemenrete Picotonic Shot Ampoule (Arbutin)
Arbutin + Calcium B12 help brighten the skin gradually while supporting elasticity.
Benefits:
✔ Fades dark spots
✔ Evens complexion
✔ Enhances radiance

Perfect after the spicule step for maximum penetration.

Korean routines always include an eye-specific step, because the eye area ages first.
