We’ve curated the best of the best skincare products on Calyxta to cater to your skin’s needs.
FOR TROUBLED/ACNE-PRONE SKIN
Acne-prone skin tends to harbor excess sebum, dead skin cells, blackheads, and the like more than other skin types. Slough all of it away, including dirt and makeup, by cleansing daily with the exfoliating effects of the COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser. Banish any breakouts, emerging or current, after with the Zenutrients Tea Tree Spot Treatment that’s tough on acne but still gentle enough for daily use, even twice a day. Moisturize and calm skin at the same time by ending your routine with the Dear Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream. It soothes skin and minimizes redness with the power of chamomile oil.
FOR OILY SKIN
Counteract the ‘heavy’ feel of excess oil on skin by cleansing with the pH-balanced and light gel formulation of the Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser. Skin feels softer and smoother after, and is a perfect alternative when used on dry skin to dissolve makeup and dirt if you’re hesitant to use cleansing oils on your skin type. Keep those oil levels in check next with the Zenutrients Calamansi & Witch Hazel Oil Control Toner that balances and controls your natural oils. Top off your routine with an oil-free moisturizer like The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA that completely hydrates skin without that greasy feeling.
FOR DRY OR MATURE SKIN
For dry and aging skin, oils in any form are a must. Wash away all traces of dirt, makeup, and more with the Dear Klairs Gentle Black Deep Cleansing Oil that leaves skin ultra clean without drying it out further. Follow up with The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 after, which restores any lost moisture back into multiple layers of the skin, making it look supple, healthy, and hydrated once again. Finally, generously slather on the Pyunkang Yul Nutrition Cream to deliver intense hydration, nourish skin, and seal in any previously applied skin care and their effects, and lock in that restored moisture.
FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
Sensitive skin is the most prone to irritation, even from elements like dust and pollution. Cleanse skin with a gentle, low pH face wash like the Heimish All Clean Green Foam. It doesn’t strip away natural oils and maintains skin’s natural pH. Soothe any sore or irritated spots after with the Glossier Balm Dotcom. Filled with antioxidants and natural emollients, it soothes, nourishes, and repairs skin quickly. Double down on the soothing effects by finishing with the COSRX Ultimate Honey Overnight Mask. Made with 87% Propolis Extract and bees wax, this 3-in-1 mask gives skin proper TLC at the end of the day.
FOR COMBINATION SKIN
Keeping skin’s balance in check is key for combination skin. Deep clean daily with the COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser that both hydrates and gently exfoliates with every wash. Next, give skin a natural, healthy glow by sweeping on the Zenutrients Tomato & Cucumber Balancing Toner made specifically for combination skin. Lastly, repair damage and minimize breakouts and hyperpigmentation with the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, made with 96% Snail Secretion Filtrate. All three products work to hydrate dry areas where needed, while sweeping away excess oil from others.
