You may have heard of the famous Korean multistep skin care routine. Susie Wang, founder of 100% Pure, takes it to a whole new level by incorporat­ing different regimens for different days of the week.

Monday & Thursday

— brightenin­g: Wang uses seven products in the morning, including a cleanser, toner and serum from the 100% Pure Fermented Rice collection, as well as face oil, eye cream and sunscreen. At night she takes off makeup with the 100% Pure Blood Orange Cleansing Balm, followed by a cleanser, scrub, toner, serum and 100% Pure Retinol Overnight Balm.

Tuesday & Wednesday

— deep hydration: Starting her day with the 100% Pure Coconut Milk Cleanser, Wang follows with a toner, serum, oil, cream, eye cream and sunscreen. She adds hydration at night with a two-step cleansing process: cleansing balm followed by the nourishing 100% Pure Coconut Milk Cleanser. She then sits in the steam room with two masks, followed by an applicatio­n of toner, serum, oil cream, and Plantioxid­ants ABCDE Eye Cream.
