Blackheads & Clogged Pores

Clogged pores often result from a buildup of excess sebum and dead skin cells. K-beauty focuses on dissolving these impurities rather than aggressive extraction, prioritizing the balance of your moisture barrier to keep pores looking refined and clear.

What to look for

BHA (salicylic acid) to help clear debris from within the poreOil-based cleansers to dissolve sebum and surface impuritiesKaolin or bentonite clay to absorb excess surface oilTea tree oil to soothe the feel of congested areas

A simple routine

  1. 1Use an oil-based cleanser on dry skin to lift away sebum and sunscreen.
  2. 2Follow with a water-based foaming cleanser to remove remaining residue.
  3. 3Apply a BHA liquid exfoliant two to three times per week to refine skin texture.
  4. 4Apply a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer to maintain hydration balance.

Avoid

Steer clear of harsh physical scrubs or high-friction tools, as these can disrupt the skin barrier and lead to increased sensitivity.
