During the home-care interval after a professional skin session, what is the right order to calm heat and dryness?
According to bnt K-STYLE reporting and 20 years of Oracle Skin Research Network data, avoid rushing strong actives right after sensitization and follow the 3-step “Hydration → Barrier Support → Gradual Actives” sequence. Start with Base Reset using the Medi-Glow Modeling Mask (₩18,000) to cool surface heat and lock in moisture, then move to Core Reset with the thermo-responsive Medi-Tension Hydrogel Mask (₩32,000) for barrier firmness.
