K-Beauty & Skincare 화장품
Skincare and makeup words for K-beauty shopping.

Ad
1 / 20 This set covers skincare and makeup words you need for K-beauty shopping in Korea, whether you are in a drugstore, a cosmetics shop or ordering online. Korean skincare is known for step-by-step routines with cleansers, toners, essences and creams, so the words below follow a typical routine, from cleansing and moisture to sunscreen and lip products. Most of these are loanwords written in Hangul, so you will recognize the sound quickly. These are generic product words only, with no brand names. Staff in cosmetics shops often give free samples, so it helps to ask for them politely.
Say a whole routine in order: 클렌징, 토너, 에센스, 로션, 선크림. It helps you read product labels fast.
