The principle of JUNGLÜCK - individual skin care through layering

Not all skin care is the same. There are many products on the cosmetics market that, at least by our standards, are best not used on the skin at all - even some that can be really harmful in the long term. What's more, it can be very confusing and complicated to find out exactly what kind of skincare your skin needs. Even if you know your skin type and your skin's needs, you are faced with a huge choice and still don't know exactly what to use, when, how and where.

Skin care is not easy with all the offers and confusing information. That's why we've made it our goal to make the whole topic as simple as possible, to educate you about your skin, ingredients and product applications - not with complex jargon and funny-sounding INCI names, but with understandable plain language. This article is intended to help you get to know the cornerstones of our skincare principle: layering & combining products. 

The rule of thumb: from thin to thick.

What exactly does that mean? There are hydrophilic (water-loving) products. Examples of these are light creams, serums, gels and lotions. On the other hand, there are lipophilic (fat-loving) products. Logically, they have a fatty base. These include oils, ointments and creams with a very low water content. If you "mix" these two types of products on your skin at the same time, two phases will settle and this can lead to an unsightly crumbling effect. You'll find out how to avoid this in a moment.  

The next fundamental point, which we unfortunately often lack in everyday life - is time. Apply many wafer-thin layers apply, work in the skincare slowly and carefully and give it enough time to work in. This can make mornings a little hectic or dampen your motivation for a full face routine. With our practical tips, we'll show you how to save time and still take good care of your skin without too much effort.  

Our principle: 5 steps of layering

The original layering method comes from Asia. It is used to apply several products with a targeted effect in order to achieve the most individually tailored skin care possible. We have thought about which needs we want to address with our products and how best to divide them into the individual steps. This is how we came up with our 5 steps: Cleanse, Tone, Treat, Moisturize and Protect. The great thing about this layering principle is that it is super individual and you don't have to adopt all 5 steps for your personal routine if you have less time. You can find out exactly what the individual steps involve and how you can use them to create your own skincare routine in the following sections.

1st layering step: Cleanse

Our cleansing products, such as the Cleansing Milk, the Cleansing Oil or the -gel, do not contain any irritating substances, aggressive surfactants or drying alcohols. You can find the right product for your skin depending on your preferences. Either way, your skin will stay moisturized no matter which product you use.

Cleansing Oil: Ideal if you want to remove make-up or sun cream from your skin. Play it safe with the double cleansing method: simply wash the day's dirt off your face twice with the Cleansing Oil or in the second "wash cycle" with the Cleansing Gel or milk. Thanks to its composition of seven valuable oils, Cleansing Oil is perfect for dry, high-maintenance skin.

Cleansing Gel: The lightest and oil-free version of our cleansing products. Ideal for a gentle cleanser after make-up removal or for oily skin or combination skin in the morning.

Cleansing Milk: Super mild, but super thorough. You can gently cleanse Cleansing Milk with a cotton cloth or simply with your hands leave-on and then rinse off with lukewarm water. It is suitable for all skin types and is also great for removing make-up residue.

2nd layering step: Tone 

3rd layering step: Treat 

You can also find our ampoules and face masks in this category. They may not be part of your layering routine every day, but they are just the thing for extended self-care sessions in the evening! 

4th layering step: Moisturize

5th layering step: Protect

Individualize your skincare - with targeted products for your skin

Do I really need all this? Only you can give a suitable answer to this question. Because you know yourself and your skin best. The layering principle gives you good support for combining active ingredients in different steps. How you ultimately want to put together your skincare routine is entirely up to you. And that's the beauty of it. It couldn't be more individual.
