Best Korean Beauty Products For Blackheads

Blackheads. Even the name conjures up images of something we’d rather avoid, let alone see on our faces. Unfortunately, blackheads are a common problem and solving them is usually a high priority. Luckily, K-Beauty is all over it.

 

Here is our list of the best Korean Beauty products for blackheads.

 

 

What Are Blackheads?

To start though, let’s take a look at what they actually are. Blackheads are small bumps that appear on your skin due to clogged hair follicles. They are called “black heads” because the surface of the bump itself looks black. They form when a clog or plug develops in the opening of hair follicles in your skin.

How Can I Get Rid Of Blackheads?

Getting rid of blackheads involves a multi-pronged approach, using a few different beauty products. We recommend:

1 Double Cleanse

The Korean Double Cleanse method is a central part of the Korean Beauty Routine and is famous for several reasons:

1.It’s great at getting rid of makeup and dirt that accumulates throughout the day.

2.It guarantees clean skin, which is great for removing blackheads.

How do you do it? Simply grab an oil-based cleanser to use as your first “cleanse”, and follow up with a gentle water-based cleanser afterwards.

2 Exfoliate

Exfoliators clear out dead skin and promote cell turnover, which is essential to prevent the blocked hair follicles that cause blackheads – just don’t scrub too hard or too often – once or twice a week is plenty.

3 Use A Bha

BHAs or Beta Hydroxy Acids work by “de-gunking” your pores. Since BHAs are oil soluble, they penetrate through the oil that’s clogging your pores and exfoliate all of the dead skin cells that have built up inside. BHAs also have anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, help reshape your pores, and allow your other skincare products to better penetrate your skin.

4 Regular Clay Masking

Clay works as a vacuum on the face, suctioning out blackheads, dirt and impurities. It can be used three ways: 1. As a spot treatment for acne 2. To remove blackheads (instead of strip masks) 3. As a full face mask

5 Avoid Heavy Moisturisers

Rich, thick moisturisers that are heavy on the oils are to be avoided to minimise blackheads. Instead, opt for something light but hydrating.

COSRX BHA Blackhead Power Liquid – this is a powerful BHA skin treatmentthat is designed to prevent the formation of blemishes before they even occur. It is an oil-soluble chemical exfoliant that clears dead skin cells from deep within pores to minimise their appearance and prevent breakouts.

Cinnamon Toast Sugar Scrub Foam was voted "Best K-Beauty Scrub" by Women's Health Magazine. This multifunctional face, lip and body scrub exfoliates your skin by gentle granular exfoliation. It sloughs away excess oil and grime to clear your pores. Best of all, it also doubles as a regular face wash. You can control the grittiness of the product with each wash by simply adding extra water to the formula and breaking down the sugar crystals.
