Best Korean Spot Treatments For Flawless Looking Skin

Every major beauty brand probably has a spot treatment on their shelves, but Koreans have truly declared war on skin spots. If you live in or have visited Korea, you have probably seen people use the tiny pimple pads that promise to make zits disappear, or have seen one of the country's several spot treatments advertised relentlessly. If you've got some spots you want gone, Korean skincare is a good place to turn.

To be clear: spot treatments like these aren't meant to correct deeper issues like acne scars or permanent discoloration. But if you've got a pimple, blackheads, or other minor skin blemishes, these are some of the most popular and highly rated products out there:

Innisfree Jeju Bija Anti Trouble Spot Essence

This treatment from Innisfree is a good option for people with normal to oily skin who occasionally get pimples from a mild case of acne or hormones.

Skinmiso Spot Repairing Serum

This one isn't fast acting, but it is much more soothing than other more intense spot treatments. It is designed to heal rather than dry out or irritate, so this is great for people with dry or red skin issues.  

Mizon Trouble Clinic Out Pink Spot

Here's an overnight mask that has got great reviews from beauty experts. You leave it on overnight, especially when you're in the middle of a breakout. It's going to provide a fuller coverage than a simple spot treatment, so people who have blotchy or red skin or bigger adult acne problems might really find success with this one.

COSRx Acne Pimple Master Patch

These, like the name says, is a patch rather than a liquid treatment, so some people prefer to wear these overnight rather than walk around with them on. Whenever you choose to wear it, though, it works. These little patches work both to quickly remove big  breakouts, and also work to prevent the just-under-the-skin ones from popping through.

Nature Republic Bee Venom Spot Treatment

Bee venom skincare advocates claim that the ingredient works by tricking the skin into thinking it has been stung by a bee, springing the body's restorative and healing abilities into action. It works quickly on many customers, but might be a little harsh for people with sensitive skin. You might want to try a bit on your hand or arm before you use it on your face.

Etude House AC Clinic Intense Pink Powder Spot

Etude House's AC Clinic line is generally geared towards teenagers going through puberty acne problems, so this is a great product who find that their pimples start popping up when they have a change in hormones.
