Many people mistakenly think that Asians are naturally rewarded with "porcelain" skin - light, free of freckles and spots, acne and wrinkles. And so Korean and Chinese women remain almost until old age. Believe me, this is not the case. Problem skin happens to everyone, and Asians are no exception. They just know some of the secrets of care historically passed on by women to each other, in which even problem skin looks great. These national secrets formed the basis of Korean cosmetics designed for skin with severe problems.
Advantages and disadvantages
Korean cosmetics have recently become popular with European women. At first, Asian brands were treated with obvious suspicion, and even the lines of products for problem skin were frightening at all with their unseen ingredients with unfamiliar outlandish names.
There was even a myth that Korean cosmetics were not suitable for Europeans due to the difference in the structure of the skin. Experts quickly refuted it, confirming that everyone's skin is the same, racial differences have nothing to do with it.

Cosmetics from Korea have gradually, slowly and surely won their niche, and now many products from Asia belong to the "luxury" class. The main advantage of beauty brands from Korea helped to achieve this. It lies in the fact that the composition is almost completely natural.
Asians have historically disliked surrogate foods, ingredients, and chemical additives. Their cream may not smell as delicious as any other, but it will be really natural. For problem skin, this argument is the main one, since acne and mimic wrinkles cannot be corrected with perfumery fragrances.
Korean cosmetics undergo several stages of clinical control and rigorous safety checks. This is another advantage. It is non-toxic and everything that can complicate the condition of problem skin has been replaced with natural ingredients.
Another plus is thoughtful, convenient, modest and practical packaging and economical consumption. Jars of cream, according to reviews, last for a long time. Cosmetics from Korea for problem skin are considered highly effective.
Manufacturers, unlike their European colleagues, are not greedy - they generously release whole sets of mini-packages, probes, which make it possible to get acquainted with the product line, test it on yourself and form a personal opinion.

A significant lack of products for problem skin from Korea can be considered price... Most brands offer luxury cosmetics, and therefore the price is high. Another disadvantage - the complexity of the purchase. Delivery from online stores is not always of high quality and fast, often, in order to buy an original product, you have to place an order on the manufacturer's website, and for this you need to have a bank card and at least be fluent in English.
The disadvantages include and linguistic design of packaging. It is almost impossible for Europeans to read the composition, since it is described, albeit in detail, but in Korean, and only a few people own it.
Considering the luxury and considerable cost of products for problem skin from Korea, this cosmetics is a tasty morsel for fraudsters of all stripes, it is often faked, and each person has a chance, instead of a useful and effective means, to buy a crude and harmful counterfeit, which will only aggravate the existing problems.

Description of species
Care cosmetics for problem skin (oily, with enlarged pores, acne, too dry and vulnerable, prone to allergies) in Korea usually has several of the most common forms and types. Spots and balms for point application only on the affected areas of the epidermis are considered very popular. Balsams do not raise questions, but with spots it is not so simple. If these are single-phase spots, then you get one bottle, the contents of which are recommended for application.
Two-phase spots come in the form of two bottles, the contents of which must either be mixed before application, or applied alternately. The most popular remedies of this type are Mizon Acence Blemish Out Pink Spot, Ciracle Anti-blemish Spot A-Sol and Mizon Acence Tea Tree Tock Blemish Spot.

The second most popular remedies for problem skin in the variety of Korean cosmetics are patches... This is an option for ladies who do not have a lot of free time for multi-step care. On the run, it is very convenient to take a small sticker with a healing impregnation and fix it in place of a sudden pimple. The composition of impregnations is very similar to spots, but the effectiveness of these agents is somewhat lower, since the proportions of substances in them are smaller.
If skin problems are minor, patches can help solve them.

This is followed by numerous lines of moisturizers, oxygen and acid foams, masks, creams... Europeans often find it strange the idea of moisturizing oily skin. But Korean women are right - and this type of skin also needs hydration and cleansing. This is where creams with a gel texture, with antiseptics and a healing effect come to the rescue. One of the most popular is Holika Holika Skin & AC MILD Sebum - X Mirror Cream.

One more type of Korean cosmetics deserves attention - alginate masks... They are different, but they are united by one component - alginic acid, which Koreans extract from brown algae. It perfectly controls the secretion of sebum by the sebaceous glands, relieves inflammation, helps cleanse, moisturize the skin and heal wounds. The best products are AC Control Modeling Mask, Charcoal Modeling Mask, or Centella Modeling Mask.

How to choose?
The choice of Korean cosmetics for problem skin should be started with a visit to a dermatologist or cosmetologist. This is important for establishing the scope of existing problems. The doctor must accurately describe the type of skin and the necessary requirements for the cosmetic care product. After that, it is worth examining the lines of products from different manufacturers from Korea, finding those that correspond to the doctor's recommendations.
In order to avoid acquiring a fake, buy the necessary product only from the manufacturer or an official representative, which is listed in the list of official partners on the manufacturer's website.
If the skin is problematic, it is worth taking cosmetics immediately with a set - means for cleansing, moisturizing, solving the main problem (dots, acne or dryness, redness or too bright pigmentation), as well as means for washing and removing makeup. In this case, it is better to take a set of one brand, you should not combine different brands.
