Stridex Pore Reset Deep Cleansing Oil
Stridex's Pore Reset Deep Cleansing Oil sells at Olive Young Korea for 18,500 KRW list / 12,580 KRW sale (200ml), checked 2026-09-02. Its legal disclosure names Korean companies, not Numark Labs (the US Stridex parent), as manufacturer and responsible seller — and the US Stridex site sells no cleansing oil of any kind, so this appears to be a Korea-market product under the licensed Stridex name rather than an export of a US product. Olive Young Global's underlying data API returned its full declared ingredient list, which matches the Korea disclosure exactly. The export marketing text's "Coconut Oil" call-out does not correspond to any single declared ingredient on either side; the reason for this is not confirmed. (Checked: 2026-09-07)

Is it OK for sensitive skin?
Declared facts only, not a suitability verdict: fragrance is declared; labeled allergens present: Geraniol, Linalool, Limonene, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone; no denatured alcohol listed. No irritation-related fact here implies suitability for any skin type.
How much of the key actives does it contain?
Salicylic Acid: rank 8 of 15, regulatory cap 0.5%.
Can I buy it outside Korea?
International shipping: Olive Young Global; Sold in Korea only: Olive Young Korea.
Is this the same Stridex sold in the US?
Not in the way the branding might suggest. The Korea legal disclosure names Korean companies (Areumdaun Cosmetics and Deobico) as manufacturer and responsible seller, not Numark Labs, the company behind Stridex in the US. A direct check of the official US Stridex site found only pad products — no cleansing oil at all — suggesting this is a Korea-market product under a licensed use of the Stridex name, checked 2026-09-02.
Is the Korean version different from the export version?
No known difference — Olive Young Global's disclosure panel did not render in-browser, but querying the listing's data API directly returned its full declared ingredient list, which matches the Korea disclosure exactly, compared on 2026-09-02. The export marketing text's "Coconut Oil" mention does not correspond to any declared ingredient; the reason for this is not confirmed.
Is it vegan certified?
No vegan certification mark appears on the Olive Young Korea listing as of 2026-09-02.
Is Stridex a Korean brand?
No — Stridex is an American acne-care brand developed in 1959 and acquired by Blistex Inc. in 1996; this page covers the version sold in Korea, checked 2026-09-07.
