🌿 Sensitive skin: the best Korean brands to adopt

Having sensitive skin means having to be extra careful at every step of your beauty routine. Redness, tingling, tightness… it only takes one bad product to trigger an unpleasant reaction. Fortunately, Korean cosmetics are known for their gentle, natural, and respectful formulations for fragile skin. If you are looking for effective skincare without irritating your skin, here is our selection of the best Korean brands to adopt with your eyes closed — and available on Ma Petite Corée.

🌸 1. Round Lab – The perfect balance between gentleness and hydration

The brand Round Lab became known with its famous 1025 Dokdo range, enriched with marine minerals from Ulleungdo Island. Its minimalist formula cleanses, soothes, and deeply hydrates — without ever damaging the skin barrier. A must-have for dehydrated sensitive skin.

To try:

• The Dokdo Toner, ultra-soothing and alcohol-free

• The Dokdo Cleanser, a gentle cleanser with a neutral pH

🍀 2. Anua – Nature and transparency for calm and clear skin

Anua focuses on natural origin ingredients and transparent formulations. The brand's hero? The Heartleaf (houttuynia cordata), a plant with anti-inflammatory properties that soothes redness and reduces imperfections without drying out.
