Hi Pinklanders! With the state of emergency and heavy rain hitting parts of New Zealand, especially Auckland, keeping your skin and makeup intact can be a real challenge. Today, we share some essential K-beauty tips to help you maintain that perfect glow even in the most humid weather.
Humidity and Your Skin
High humidity can lead to excess oil production and makeup meltdowns. The key to a long-lasting look is starting with a lightweight, hydrating base. Skip the heavy creams and opt for a soothing toner or a light hyaluronic acid serum to lock in moisture without the grease.
The Power of Layering
K-beauty is all about the thin layers. Instead of one thick layer of foundation, try layering a long-wear cushion or a thin BB cream. Use a setting spray between layers to ensure everything stays in place. For those of you dealing with the rain, a waterproof eyeliner and a smudge-proof lip tint are absolute must-haves.
Regenerative Care
2026 is the year of regenerative ingredients like PDRN. These powerful components help your skin recover from environmental stress, including the damp and chilly Auckland autumn air. Adding a PDRN-infused ampoule to your nighttime routine will help repair your skin barrier while you sleep.
