Take the skin testAchieve a luminous, glass-like complexion with BE THE SKIN Pore Reset Glass Skin Cleansing Oil, a luxurious 150ml K-beauty cleanser designed to effortlessly melt away makeup, sunscreen, and impurities while nourishing the skin. Infused with a potent blend of seven plant-based oils, including jojoba, olive, sunflower, and green tea seed, alongside Centella Asiatica exosomes. This lightweight, hypoallergenic oil deeply cleanses pores, removes blackheads, and soothes irritation without clogging or stripping natural moisture. Ideal for all skin types, including sensitive, its fast-emulsifying formula transforms into a milky texture, leaving skin hydrated, soft, and radiant for a flawless, dewy finish.
Pore Reset Glass Skin Cleansing Oil is a cushioning oil cleanser from BE THE SKIN. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 25 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. The oils in it point to a dewy, emollient finish rather than a matte one. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Ethylhexylglycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin and Cetyl Ethylhexanoate.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Centella Asiatica Callus Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate and Tocopherol.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on barrier support, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes first step. Use on damp skin and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a toner or essence while skin is still slightly damp.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
