Many people make the mistake of trying to treat oily skin with harsh, drying products, which only increases oil production. This starter set applies the “smart” solutions of Korean skincare: it deeply cleanses while also hydrating. The key ingredients in this collection are tea tree and green tea, which naturally disinfect and soothe, while the water-based sunscreen provides protection without weighing down the skin.
Steps in the routine:
Bye Bye Blackhead 30 Days Miracle Green Tea Tox Foaming Cleanser
- Why will you love it? This isn’t your average cleanser: it contains 16 types of tea and natural BHA. After application, it forms fine bubbles that “suck out” blackheads and impurities from deep within the pores. It also works as a deep-cleansing mask in just 5 minutes!
- Usage: Apply a thin layer to a dry face, wait until it foams, then massage in circular motions with a little water and rinse off.
Some By Mi AHA-BHA-PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner (150 ml)
