Asian vs American skincare?

What are the pros and cons for the both of them, especially for oily acne prone skin? Is Japanese or Korean skincare better?

Asian skincare tends to cater towards more glowing and whiter skin. Their skin care regime is a lot larger than a typical American's. They are known to have 7+ steps which is generally how they achieve such flawless skin besides their diet. I wouldn't say there is much difference between Japanese and Korean skin care though. They care more for their skin than makeup as well.

Thank you! Is there any products you tried from asian skincare brands that you think would work with my skin, or any one/website you know of that could help me come up with a regime?

I'm an asian and I think the main difference is that asian product is a lot more smoother and acceptable by our body
While american product, some of us will be too rough since american or any western country uses stronger doses *I don't know how to explain this but I hope you get my point

I also noticed korean skincare products are more organic..vs american products use more chemicals but I guess it depends.

I think I know where you're getting at LaLa, I also think it associates with what Anabel is saying. Thank you both!
