Fungal Acne Safe Korean Serums
Serums carry the highest concentration of actives in a Korean routine, so they are where the treatment happens. Pick one by the problem you want it to solve and check the actives, not the claims on the front.
These serums 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.
