How does oily and acne-prone skin go on a "vegetarian diet”?

By Hồng Hoa


The skin's beauty is often considered a mirror reflecting our physical and mental well-being.

Like other skin types, oily and acne-prone skin can achieve a healthy and smooth state with proper cleansing and suitable skincare products. With enlarged pores and continuous sebum production, which leads to a greasy and acne-prone surface, oily skin requires a "vegetarian diet" that is rich in active ingredients to treat and prevent acne, oil-free formulas with lightweight and fast-absorbing textures.

After conducting extensive research on the characteristics of Asian oily skin and considering the local climate, we have curated a menu of 7 “delicious vegetarian dishes” from Winter Melon. The menu includes micellar water, facial cleanser gel, skin balancing toner, face mask, serum, cream gel, and acne spot treatment.

Winter Melon

A gentle and refreshing ingredient that helps reduce the discomfort and irritation of acne-prone skin. It has antibacterial and antioxidant properties, limiting the formation of free radicals, thereby regulating and soothing inflammatory acne.

Centella

Boost the skin's healing process, promote tissue repair, boost collagen production, soothe inflamed acne, and reduce the occurrence of post-acne scars.

Tea tree oil

Strengthen the skin's antibacterial defense, effectively reduce inflammation, and quickly alleviate redness and swelling of acne.

5α-AVOCUTA® (Butyl Avocadate)

Effectively inhibit the activity of 5α-reductase type 1 enzyme, which stimulates the conversion of hormones in the body, leading to increased sebum production and excess oil secretion, thereby reducing excess oil production and preventing future acne.


In addition, our “vegetarian dishes” made from Winter Melon also contain additional ingredients such as BHA, TECA, Vitamin B3, B5, Betaine, and licorice extract, which further support the process of unclogging pores, controlling sebum, moisturizing, and improving acne conditions.


Furthermore, we pay special attention to how we "process" these ingredients into complete "meals" to create the most suitable textures for oily and acne-prone skin. We prioritize lightweight and fast-absorbing formulas to provide a breathable and soothing sensation for these skin types.
