ilso Super Melting Sebum Softener
This toner-like product is a skincare solution designed to dissolve excess sebum and blackheads, promoting clearer pores. Formulated with papaya fruit extract and papain, it gently exfoliates dead skin cells and impurities, minimizing irritation.
The inclusion of centella asiatica extract and chamomilla recutita (Matricaria) flower extract provides soothing effects, calming sensitive skin. And with a slightly acidic pH, this super-melting sebum softener also aids in exfoliation and maintaining the skin's natural balance, resulting in a smoother, clearer complexion.
Skin Concern:
The ilso sebum softener is one of the most talked-about pore care products in K-beauty, and it makes sense once you see how it works.
This viral treatment helps loosen buildup inside pores without the harsh pulling and irritation that often comes with pore strips. If you struggle with stubborn sebaceous filaments, blackheads, whiteheads, or oily congestion around your nose and chin, this super-melting sebum softener is designed for exactly that.
Benefits:
- Melts away excess sebum: Helps loosen sebum buildup and blackheads for clearer pores.
- Gentle exfoliation without scrubbing: Papaya fruit extract and papain dissolve dead skin cells with minimal irritation.
- Calms while it clears: Centella asiatica extract and Chamomilla recutita flower extract soothe skin and reduce redness.
- Mild pH level: Slightly alkaline pH of 8–9 ensures it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and exfoliates without leaving skin feeling stripped.
- Smooths uneven skin texture: Regular use helps refine rough areas and improve overall skin clarity.
Product Information:
Size: 150ml
- Cleanse: Begin with freshly cleansed skin to remove surface oil and impurities.
- Apply to a cotton pad: Saturate a cotton pad with the ilso sebum softener.
- Target congested areas: Place the soaked cotton pad on areas with excess sebum or blackheads, like the nose, forehead, or chin.
- Leave on for 10–15 minutes: This gives the formula time to soften buildup inside the pores. You can resaturate the cotton pad if it dries out.
- Gently remove sebum: Remove the cotton pad and lightly wipe away loosened buildup. You can also pair it with the ilso Deep Clean Master extraction tool for more targeted extraction.
- Rinse and hydrate: Finish by rinsing the area with lukewarm water and proceed with your regular skincare routine.
For best results, use the ilso sebum softener one to two times a week; not daily.
