Ampoules
A Korean ampoule is a concentrated step, lighter than a cream and stronger in active ingredients than most essences, used in small amounts after toner. Every product in this collection is an ampoule, from brands such as SKIN1004, Sungboon Editor, Mediheal, VT Cosmetics, Missha, Medicube, Dr. Ceuracle and The Saem.
Examples include the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule, the Isntree Mugwort Calming Ampoule, the Innisfree Retinol Cica Repair Ampoule, the Dr.Ceuracle Vegan BHA Matcha Ampoule and the celimax The Real Noni Energy Ampoule.
To choose, match one ingredient to one goal. Centella and mugwort ampoules suit skin that looks red or feels reactive, the BHA ampoule suits oily, congested areas, and retinol belongs in the evening with sunscreen the next morning. If you also use essences, Snail Mucin vs Bean Essence: Choose by Texture, Not Hype is a related read.
