Fungal Acne Safe Korean Moisturizers
The moisturizer seals in every layer before it. Korean creams range from water-light gels for oily skin to rich barrier creams for dry skin; the base matters as much as the actives.
These moisturizers have no known Malassezia triggers in their ingredient lists: no fatty acids in the C11 to C24 range or their esters, no polysorbates, no plant oils, and none of the ferments or waxes the trigger lists disagree on.
