Dark dots or rough bumps on the nose and cheeks; pores look larger.
Oil cleansing plus a BHA 2-3 times a week works better than scrubbing. Pore size cannot be erased, only refined.

- Salicylic acid (BHA)
Oil-soluble exfoliant that clears inside pores, reducing blackheads and breakouts.
- Vitamin B3
Multitasker: helps fade the look of dark marks, reduces the look of pores and shine, and supports the skin barrier.
- Betaine salicylate (BHA alternative)
Milder BHA alternative common in K-beauty toners.
- Kaolin clay
Gentle clay that absorbs excess oil, used in wash-off masks.
- Oil-cleanser emulsifier
Lets cleansing oils rinse off cleanly with water.
