KAHI Multi Balm 9g: five practical steps before and after makeup
Understand KAHI's Korean 9g stick, two older brand-linked demonstrations, careful application and hygiene.
Korean brand KAHI currently lists its Multi Balm as a 9g stick on its Korean official shop (checked October 28, 2026). In a November 2020 customer-support reply, the brand linked separate videos for moisturizing dry areas and applying balm after makeup. These are older demonstrations, not independent proof of 2026 formulations or wrinkle outcomes. Allure's April 2022 feature described KAHI as a notable example of the then-popular Korean multi-balm format. Here is a practical, non-promotional routine for using a small amount before or after makeup.

01
Check the current Korean 9g listing
Compare the Korean official 'Multi Balm (9g)' listing with the label of the item in your hand. Regional formulations and availability may differ. This balm is not a replacement for sunscreen.
-
02
Use a thin layer on dry spots before makeup
After basic skincare, apply a little to areas that feel dry if needed. Too much balm may affect how base makeup sits, so begin sparingly. The older moisturizing video linked by KAHI is an application reference, not a clinical test.

03
Tap lightly after makeup
If you want localized moisture or shine, dab on a small amount after applying makeup rather than rubbing away foundation. The brand-linked 'immediately after makeup' video shows an example, not independently tested wear time.

04
Keep the contact surface clean
Do not share a stick that touches skin, and replace its cap after use. Avoid the inside of the eyes or broken or visibly infected skin. Stop using it if itching or redness persists.
-
05
Separate a past trend from efficacy claims
The multi-balm trend reported in 2022 is historical Korean beauty context. Marketing claims about wrinkles do not establish guaranteed personal outcomes. Continue appropriate daytime sun protection.

✦ Helpful tips
- If makeup transfers to the stick, consider taking a small amount with a clean applicator.
- Videos linked in a 2020 brand response should not be taken as a demonstration of every current variant.
ⓘ Keep in mind
- Avoid repeated use on irritated skin or contact with the eyes.
- This is cosmetic guidance, not treatment for a skin disease. Seek medical advice for persistent symptoms.
