Summer Makeup Woes? Achieve a Matte Finish with Korean Powders 🌿
As summer approaches, many people face a common makeup challenge: oily skin and makeup melting away. The increased sweat and sebum production in hot weather make the skin sticky, causing makeup to break down easily. That’s when the essential item comes in — powder.
Korean cosmetic brands offer high-quality powders suitable for various skin types and makeup styles. Two main types are loose powder and pressed powder, each solving summer skin concerns in different ways.
💧 Loose Powder – Lightweight and Natural Finish
Loose powder comes in a fine, loose form that you gently dust over your face at the final step of makeup. It creates a smooth, matte finish without looking cakey, naturally covering pores.
Innisfree No Sebum AC Powder is an excellent choice for oily skin during summer. It controls sebum and contains skin-soothing ingredients like salicylic acid, calamine, and houttuynia cordata extract to help calm and prevent breakouts. The powder is fragrance-free, colorant-free, and non-comedogenic, making it safe for sensitive skin as well.

💼 Pressed Powder – Portability and Blur Effect in One
Pressed powder is compact and easy to carry, perfect for quick touch-ups when makeup starts to fade during the day.
Laneige Neo Essential Blurring Finish Powder offers a pressed powder with microfine particles that blur pores for a flawless finish. Its silky texture feels lightweight and provides a semi-matte finish that keeps skin looking smooth without tightness. The built-in mesh screen prevents powder fallout and ensures hygienic, easy application.

🌿 Powders that Care for Your Skin
Korean powders don’t just absorb excess oil; many also include skin-soothing and pore-care ingredients. Especially in summer, powders containing extracts like houttuynia cordata, centella asiatica, and tea tree are popular for calming sensitive skin.
Even in the hottest, stickiest weather, using the right powder can keep your makeup fresh and your skin feeling comfortable all day long.
