Anua Heartleaf Routine: Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners

New to Anua? Here's how to build a complete Heartleaf routine — cleanser, toner, serum and sunscreen — for calm, clear, glass skin.

Anua is one of the most-loved Korean skincare brands right now, and its Heartleaf line is the reason. Heartleaf (Houttuynia cordata) is a calming ingredient that soothes redness, balances oily skin and supports a healthy skin barrier — perfect if air conditioning and heat leave your skin stressed. Here's how to build a complete routine.

Step 1: Cleanse — Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil

Start with an oil cleanse in the evening to melt away sunscreen, makeup and excess sebum. Massage onto dry skin, then rinse. Follow with the Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam for a fresh, non-stripping second cleanse.

Step 2: Tone — Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner

The icon of the line. With 77% heartleaf extract, it hydrates, calms and preps skin for the next steps. Pat it in with hands or use a soaked cotton pad as a quick soothing mask on red areas.

Step 3: Treat — pick your serum

For dark spots and dullness, try the Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum. For hydration and glass-skin bounce, the PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Capsule 100 Serum is the viral pick. Both layer perfectly over the toner.

Step 4: Moisturise and protect

Seal everything with a light cream, and always finish your morning routine with SPF — the Heartleaf Silky Moisture Sunscreen keeps the routine consistent and calm.

Sample weekly routine

Morning: foam cleanse → toner → serum → sunscreen. Evening: oil cleanse → foam cleanse → toner → serum → cream. Two to three times a week, add a sheet mask or brightening pads for extra glow.
