Korean skincare for acne-prone skin focuses on keeping pores clear while maintaining hydration and supporting the skin barrier. Explore gentle cleansers, exfoliating toners, targeted serums, spot treatments and lightweight moisturisers for breakouts, excess oil and congestion.

Look for BHA to clear pore buildup, niacinamide to balance the appearance of oily skin, and centella asiatica or heartleaf to soothe visible redness. Introduce exfoliating ingredients gradually, avoid stripping the skin with harsh cleansers and wear sunscreen daily to help prevent post-acne marks from becoming darker.
