According to this viral beauty trend, you have to apply not 1, not 2, and not even 6, but 7 layers of toner.

The ‘7 Skin Method’ means to apply 7 rounds of toner or essence, as the meaning of ‘skin’ and ‘toner’ are shared by the same Korean word.

The 7 Skin Method has gone viral earlier year and has received glowing reviews from beauty gurus.

So, what in the world is the 7 Skin Method?

It’s a method of toner or essence application whereby you layer product on 7 times, after cleansing, and before moisturising. Why the 7 layers, you ask? The logic is that 1 layer of toner or essence might not be fully absorbed by the skin, so applying more layers is feeding your skin more hydration and nourishment.

This gives you supple, hydrated, and glowing skin!

How do you do it?

Pour a few drops of toner or essence into the palm of your hand. Then gently rub it between your palms to spread the product, then pat it lightly into your skin. Wait about 1 or 2 minutes for that layer to be semi-dry before applying the next layer. Repeat this 6 more times.

Must it really be 7 layers?

Try out your toner or essence beforehand, and apply fewer layers at a time before working your way up to 7 layers. If your skin likes the product with 2 or 3 layers, then you can increase the number of layers. If you don’t see much of a different between, say, 4 layers and 7 layers, then stick to what works for you!

Will any toner or essence do? 

Nope – pick your product wisely. Toners with alcohol, artificial fragrances, and cleansing properties can agitate the skin if you apply too many layers of it. Try sticking to natural or organic products with minimal ingredients. Here are a few popular product picks:
