Dermatologist Reviews Axis-Y Korean Skincare: Key Products for Acne and Dark Spots

In a recent online video, dermatologist Dr. Charles offered his professional insights into the popular Korean beauty brand Axis-Y, highlighting three of its key products. Dr. Charles, identified as an MD from Harvard and Duke, provided a detailed breakdown of the ingredients and benefits of each item. Among the products reviewed was a spot treatment, noted for its inclusion of 4-terpineol. Dr. Charles explained that this ingredient is both anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, making the treatment effective for addressing dark spots and managing acne-prone skin. He emphasized that this was the first time he had encountered 4-terpineol in a skincare product. Next, Dr. Charles discussed the Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum, which he praised for its hydrating properties due to squalane and its ability to combat acne and discoloration, attributed to niacinamide. He suggested that this serum pairs well with the spot treatment for enhanced results. Finally, the dermatologist reviewed the Mugwort Pore Clarifying Mask, describing it as a "pretty cool" product that can be used a few times a week to deeply cleanse pores. Dr. Charles concluded by reiterating that these three products, used individually or in suggested combinations, represent his top picks from the Axis-Y line.
