The Alcohol-Free Revolution

Why your skin's health begins with what we leave out.

At KKUMIDA, we believe that high-performance skincare shouldn't come at the cost of your skin’s integrity. This marks the beginning of our KKUMIDA SIX series—the six non-negotiable standards we use to filter every product that reaches your vanity. Today, we dive into our first pillar: Alcohol-Free Formulation.

Not All Alcohols Are Equal

In the skincare world, "Alcohol" is a broad term. We strictly avoid Volatile Alcohols (like Alcohol Denat, Ethanol, or Isopropyl Alcohol). These are often used to make heavy creams feel "light" or to force ingredients into the skin. However, they work by dissolving the very lipids that hold your skin cells together, leading to chronic dehydration and sensitivity.

The Alcohol-Free Ritual

To celebrate this principle, we’ve curated a complete routine that delivers intense results without a single drop of drying alcohol.

Step 1: Cleanse

Beauty of Joseon: Ginseng Cleansing Oil

Traditional cleansers often use alcohol to strip oil away. We prefer the "Like Dissolves Like" philosophy. This alcohol-free oil uses Ginseng Seed Oil and Soybean Oil to gently emulsify makeup and impurities while keeping your moisture barrier intact.

Benton Snail Bee Essence
Step 2: Treat

Benton: Snail Bee High Content Essence

Many high-potency serums use alcohol as a delivery vehicle. Benton proves you don't need it. By using an aqueous base of Snail Mucin and Bee Venom, this essence repairs skin damage and calms inflammation without the "stinging" sensation of volatile ethanol.

Medicube Collagen Jelly Cream
Step 3: Seal

Medicube: Collagen Jelly Cream

To seal in your routine, you need a barrier, not an evaporative film. This jelly cream creates a transparent collagen membrane. Because it is alcohol-free, the hydration stays locked inside your dermis for 24 hours, even in the driest weather.

A Note for "Tech" Users

If you are using the Medicube Booster Pro, alcohol-free products are non-negotiable. Alcohol can interfere with the device’s conductivity and cause unnecessary irritation during electro-stimulation. Our curated list ensures your "Tech-Beauty" routine remains safe and effective.
