10 Best Korean Moisturisers for Oily Skin Types

Still think you don't need a moisturiser? Breaking news: Even oily skin types are not immune to dehydration! Especially if you're already using any acne-targeting products that dry out the skin, it is important to rehydrate it to prevent your skin from overproducing sebum when it is dehydrated.

Besides, moisturisers these days do not only hydrate, they also contain a host of benefits for oily or acne-prone skin. From lightweight creams to cooling gels, we've rounded up some of the best moisturisers that will leave your skin hydrated and healthy, without clogging your pores or causing breakouts. 

1. COSRX Hydrium Green Tea Aqua Soothing Gel Cream

The COSRX Hydrium Green Tea Aqua Soothing Gel Cream is designed to soothe, cool and hydrate the skin while combating redness and irritation. Unlike most lightweight gel creams that vanish after application, the COSRX Green Tea Aqua Soothing Gel Cream actually feels and deeply hydrates like a moisturiser, but with a gel consistency!

Containing two of our favourite powerhouse ingredients, this moisturiser will help hydrate, soothe and brighten. Snail mucin will keep the skin plump and moisturised, while centella asiatica helps calm irritation and soothe blemishes for a brighter and more even complexion.

7. Aromatica Tea Tree Balancing Emulsion

Emulsions are lighter versions of moisturising creams. So unlike most heavy creams, emulsions typically go on lighter and thinner on the skin. The Aromatica Tea Tree Balancing Emulsion is a sebum-controlling emulsion formulated with tea tree leaf extract to help restore skin balance, fight breakouts and prevent excess shine.
