What's that one product that turned your Acne story around?

Hi Pickies!! It's rare to find that one product in K-beauty that single handedly put a stop to hormonal and cystic acne. It's usually a combo of different products working together to tackle it in snail motion.Then, there's still the scarring and hyperpigmentation to tackle. I'd like to find out if there's any one product that cleaned up your face from acne?

it's not Kbeauty (Kbeauty is too mild with actives) but my game changers were: ◽ HADALABO - Tamagohada aha/BHA cleanser ◽ ÜNT - Acne control toner ◽ ÜNT - Acne Med serum ◽ ÜNT - ExWhite Laserwave serum (anti-hyperpigmentation with mandelic acid and tranexamic acid) ◽ SESDERMA - Salises gel and gel cream

It's not a k beauty item cause I've yet to find a product that matches its effectiveness but the paulas choice 2% bha liquid is like liquid gold for me. When I have hormonal outbreaks due to my endometriosis its always my go to and never fails. Honourable mention as well to the glow recipe strawberry smooth BHA & AHA salicylic serum, and the cosrx pimple patches just all around amazing products that I use in unison to rid myself of spots when they appear!

I'm starting to think American skincare may be more effective since they are more liberal with actives

I think what helped my acne the most was sticking to a good skincare routine with actives 😅

I wouldn’t say one product cures my acne problem, but I do see significant improvement with my current routine. I once had mild acne around my nose and after using toner mask, the Jumiso cica serum and isntree onion gel cream, the mild acne literally disappear within the next few days! most probably because the acne wasn’t that serious.
