Best Korean Face Masks for Acne and How to Make Them Work Harder

Acne-prone skin needs gentle but effective care — and the right Korean face mask for acne can make a huge difference. Korean sheet masks are known for delivering targeted ingredients that calm inflammation, purify pores, and support healing.

Top Ingredients to Look for

  • Tea Tree: Fights acne-causing bacteria and calms redness
  • Centella Asiatica: Soothes and reduces sensitivity
  • Niacinamide: Controls sebum and fades acne scars
  • Collagen: Supports skin repair and recovery

Choose a Korean sheet mask with any of these ingredients and you’re off to a great start. But for even better results, pair it with the Vitalysse Derma Roller.

Why Add Microneedling?

Using a derma roller creates tiny micro-channels in the skin. This helps acne-fighting ingredients penetrate deeper into the pores, improving their effectiveness. Plus, microneedling can help fade post-acne marks over time by stimulating collagen production.

How to Use the Routine Safely

  1. Only roll on non-active acne areas (avoid red, inflamed pimples).
  2. Roll gently in 4 directions: horizontal, vertical, and diagonal both ways.
  3. Apply your chosen mask right after rolling.
  4. Let the mask sit for 15–20 minutes, then follow up with a non-comedogenic moisturizer.

Our Favorites for Acne-Prone Skin

Combine your acne treatment mask with microneedling 2–3 times per week for smoother, clearer skin with long-term benefits.
