1. Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleanser

Purpose: Gentle daily cleanser

Benefits

• Removes dirt, oil, sunscreen, and impurities

• Keeps the skin hydrated

• Maintains skin barrier balance

• Very gentle for daily use

How it works

• The cleanser contains deep sea water minerals that help maintain the skin’s moisture balance while cleansing.

Why it’s good for acne:

• Harsh cleansers can trigger more oil production

• This cleanser cleans pores without stripping the skin

• So it prepares the skin for acne treatments.

2. Anua BHA 2% Gentle Exfoliating Toner

Purpose: Pore-clearing exfoliating toner

Benefits

• Unclogs pores

• Reduces blackheads and whiteheads

• Controls excess oil

• Prevents future breakouts

How it works

• This toner contains 2% BHA (Salicylic Acid).

• Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, which means it can penetrate deep inside pores.

It works by:

• Dissolving oil buildup inside pores

• Removing dead skin cells

• Preventing clogged pores

This helps reduce:

• blackheads

• whiteheads

• acne breakouts

For beginners it should be used 2–3 times per week at first.

3. Anua Azelaic Acid 10% Serum

Purpose: Acne treatment serum

Benefits

• Kills acne-causing bacteria

• Reduces redness and inflammation

• Fades acne marks

• Improves skin texture

How it works

Azelaic acid works in three ways:

• Antibacterial – Kills acne bacteria.

• Anti-inflammatory – Reduces redness and swelling.

• Brightening – Reduces post-acne pigmentation.

– It also helps keep pores clear.

– This ingredient is dermatologist recommended for acne and acne scars.

4. Anua Ceramide 3+ panthenol Barrier Cream

Purpose: Skin barrier repair moisturizer

Benefits

• Repairs damaged skin barrier

• Prevents dryness from acne treatments

• Locks in hydration

• Strengthens skin protection

How it works

Ceramides are natural lipids found in the skin.

They help:

• seal moisture in the skin

• protect against irritation

• strengthen the skin barrier

This is important because BHA exfoliation can sometimes dry the skin, and ceramides help prevent that.

5. Beauty of Joseon Relief Aqua Fresh Sun SPF50+

Purpose: Sunscreen protection

Benefits

• Protects skin from UV damage

• Prevents acne scars from darkening

• Lightweight and hydrating

• No white cast

How it works

• UV exposure can worsen:

• acne marks

• hyperpigmentation

• skin inflammation

This sunscreen uses rice extract and probiotics to nourish and protect the skin while shielding it from UV rays.

Daily sunscreen is essential when using exfoliating acids like BHA.

6. VT Cica Care Spot Patch

Purpose: Emergency acne treatment

Benefits

• Absorbs pus and oil from pimples

• Protects acne from bacteria

• Prevents touching or picking

• Helps pimples heal faster

How it works

• These patches use hydrocolloid technology.

• Hydrocolloid draws out fluid from pimples while protecting them from external bacteria.

• This speeds up healing and reduces the chance of acne scars.
