Routine Overview

Kbeauty Skincare Routine for Large Pores and Uneven Texture - Oily Skin

This routine is designed to make pores look cleaner and texture look smoother without triggering the classic oily-skin cycle (over-strip - rebound oil - more congestion). The strategy is: a pore-purifying cleanser, controlled chemical exfoliation (AHA/BHA pads) to keep buildup from thickening, a niacinamide serum to support clearer-looking pores and smoother texture, a lightweight calming moisturizer to keep the barrier stable, and a matte sunscreen so UV does not keep roughness and pore visibility looking worse.

What results to expect (realistic):

• 7-14 days: less “gritty” texture, skin feels smoother, less mid-day oiliness for many.
• 3-6 weeks: fewer clogged-looking pores and more even texture (especially T-zone and inner cheeks).
• 8-12 weeks: best refined look (pores do not permanently shrink, they look tighter when consistently kept clear and skin stays balanced).

The 5 Products (Luxiface catalogue)

1) Cleanser: [Anua] Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam 150ML

Why it fits oily pores: This cleanser is positioned to help eliminate dead skin buildup and purify pores, which is exactly what oily skin needs to reduce the clogged, stretched-pore look.

• Helps lift excess sebum and residue that makes pores look more obvious.
• Supports a cleaner base so exfoliation and serum work more evenly.
• Prevents the “leftover sunscreen + oil = texture” problem.

2) Exfoliating Toner Pads: [Medicube] Zero Pore Pad 2.0 70pcs

Why it is the main texture step: These pads are formulated with AHA and BHA to gently remove dead skin and clear pore buildup. This directly improves uneven texture and helps pores look cleaner.

• Smooths roughness and helps reduce the look of clogged pores.
• Helps keep blackheads and congestion from building up repeatedly.
• Ideal for oily skin when used with the right frequency (not overused).

Frequency (important): Start 3 nights/week for 2 weeks. If skin stays comfortable, increase to every other night. If you feel stinging or tightness, drop back to 2-3 nights/week.

3) Treatment Serum: [Anua] Peach 70% Niacinamide Serum 30ml

Why it fits large pores and uneven texture: This serum is positioned to clarify pores and support smoother-looking skin. Niacinamide is especially useful for oily skin because it supports oil balance and the look of pores over time.

• Supports clearer-looking pores and smoother overall texture.
• Helps balance the oil-water feel so skin looks less “bumpy” and congested.
• Lightweight layering that suits oily skin daily.

Tip: On exfoliation-pad nights, apply a thinner layer (do not over-layer when skin is freshly exfoliated).

4) Moisturizer: [Dr.G] Red Blemish Clear Soothing Cream 70ml

Why oily skin still needs this: When oily skin gets over-dried or irritated, texture usually looks worse and pores clog more easily. This gel-cream type moisturizer keeps skin calm and balanced without heaviness.

• Hydrates without greasy weight, helping pores look more refined.
• Soothing support keeps the barrier stable (key for long-term texture improvement).
• Makes exfoliation easier to tolerate, which improves consistency.

5) Sunscreen (AM only): [CellFusionC] Advanced Clear Sunscreen 100 SPF50+/PA++++ 50ml

Why it is non-negotiable: UV damage makes texture look rougher and pores look more visible over time. This sunscreen is positioned with a refreshing matte finish and sebum-control support, which is exactly what oily skin actually wants to wear daily.

• Protects your pore and texture progress from UV-triggered roughness.
• Comfortable matte wear helps daily consistency.
• Supports a cleaner-looking finish through the day.
