We have all seen the craze with Korean Skincare! I have been so impressed with some of these products and how hydrated and glowy it's leaving peoples skin. Koreans in general have the most amazing skin so they must be doing something right, right?
I started looking into the ingredients of some of the most viral Korean Skincare products. Guess what I found? Pore clogging ingredients! I could not believe my eyes! But see the thing is that for people that are not acne prone the ingredients have minimal impact on the skin but for you and I, it's a different story.
I checked out the ingredients of Haru Haru Wonder - Black Rice Moisture Airyfit Sunscreen

It turns out that this SPF has an ingredient called Cetearyl Alcohol. This ingredient is used to soften the skin and make the product consistency thicker. It's typically derived from Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Corn Oil or Soy Oil.
It's considered a safe and clean ingredient however for acne prone people this can cause clogged pores and trigger breakouts.
Which Korean Skincare product should we check out next?
