As someone who loves discovering under-the-radar skincare gems, stumbling upon Logically, Skin felt like finding a quiet, science-driven corner of K-beauty that hasn’t quite hit the mainstream yet. A relatively new and small Korean skincare brand, Logically, Skin piqued my interest with its sleek, minimal packaging and an ethos centered around science-led formulations, an approach I deeply resonate with.
What started as a test run of their Brightening Peptide Ampoule quickly turned into a full-on skincare experiment, and after over a month of incorporating nearly their entire line (minus cleanser and heavy moisturizer), I have quite a few thoughts. Spoiler : I’m impressed.
🔬 The Philosophy
Logically, Skin positions itself around the marriage of logic (science) and skin (nature), and it really shows in their ingredient choices and textures. Nothing feels overly perfumed, gimmicky, or aggressively active as this is skincare for the thoughtful minimalist who still wants visible results.
Here’s a breakdown of everything I tried :
🔅 Aquatide Multi-Purpose Mist – USD$15.99
A simple, featherlight toner that earns major points for convenience. The fine mist spray bottle makes it incredibly user-friendly, especially on hot, lazy mornings. It’s not deeply hydrating, but it does just enough to prep the skin without leaving any residue or tackiness. If you’re looking for a no-fuss hydrating step that layers well with other products, this is a solid pick.
Rating : 8/10 – Mid-Range Price (MRP)
Great for : Summer, layering, anyone who hates heavy toners.
🔅 Skin Brightuning Peptide Ampoule – USD$17.99
The standout star of the lineup. This thicker ampoule glides on beautifully and leaves a lit-from-within glow. While it didn’t do much for stubborn pigmentation, the brightness and silky-smooth texture it delivered made a major difference in how my skin looked and how my makeup sat on top of it. I’ve already repurchased. Enough said.
Rating : 10/10 – Would Repurchase (WRP)
Great for : Dull skin, dry patches, smoothing texture.
🔅 Skin Aquatide Resurface Serum – USD$22.99
Despite the hype, this one didn’t quite wow me. It hydrates, surely, but it’s not the skin-quenching miracle I hoped for as someone with dry skin. However, when layered with the Brightuning Serum, I noticed a subtle "glass skin" effect that’s hard to ignore. It may work better for less dry skin types or as a supplementary step.
Rating : 6/10 – Would Not Repurchase (WNRP)
Great for : Layering, normal to combination skin, subtle hydration boost.
🔅 Multi-Lifting Cream – USD$23.99
A gentle, lightly fragranced cream that feels elegant and comforting. It doesn’t pack enough moisture for me overnight, but as a daytime hydrator—or even as a neck cream as it works beautifully. One pump is the perfect amount, and the smooth finish plays well under SPF or makeup. Don’t expect dramatic lifting, but do expect happy, softened skin.
Rating : 7/10 – Mid-Range Price (MRP)
Great for : Daytime use, lightweight hydration, normal to oily skin.
🔅 Hydro Multi-Shield Sun Essence – USD$12.97
This one broke my heart a little. It’s such a good sunscreen, lightweight, moisturizing, completely non-greasy, and invisible on the skin. It doubles as a primer, never pills, and feels like a dream. Unfortunately, my childhood sunscreen allergy reared its head, and I broke out in tiny bumps (likely due to the chemical filters). But if your skin plays well with chemical SPFs? You need this.
Rating : 10/10 for formula – just not for me
Great for : Dry skin, makeup wearers, SPF haters who haven’t found “the one.”
✨ Final Thoughts
Logically, Skin feels like a hidden gem, quietly intelligent, elegantly formulated, and perfect for those who appreciate subtlety and synergy in skincare. While not every product was a hit for me personally, the overall quality is impressive, especially considering the price point (and frequent sales on sites like Jolse). If you’re intrigued by clean aesthetics, smart ingredients, and a science-first approach, this is a brand worth exploring.
