ILSO: frequently asked questions

What is ILSO?

ILSO is a K-beauty skincare brand. Many of its product titles mention pores or sebum, such as the Moringa Tightening Pore Serum or the Super Melting Sebum Softener. Find the selection in the ILSO collection at Ma Petite Coree, shipped from Seoul.

How do you spell ILSO: ilso, il so, ils o?

On the packaging, ILSO is written “ilso” in lowercase, as one word. “il so” and “ils o” are search variants. Typing ILSO brings you to the same brand and its selection at Ma Petite Coree.

Is ILSO a Korean brand?

ILSO is a K-beauty brand: its products are sold in Korea at Olive Young, the country's leading beauty chain, including its nose patches. At Ma Petite Coree, the ILSO selection ships from Seoul and sits in the ILSO collection.

Which ILSO product should I start with?

To try ILSO simply, pick one routine step. To cleanse, look at the Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil or the Grain Potato Cleansing Pack Foam. For a treatment step, the Moringa Tightening Pore Serum or the HA-Shot Booster Serum. Add one product at a time and patch-test it first.

What do Nose Patch and Nose Pack mean at ILSO?

The Natural Mild Clear Nose Patch and the Natural Mild Clear Nose Pack have “Nose” in their titles, which points to use on the nose. They sit in different collections at Ma Petite Coree. Read the directions on the pack before using them.

What is the difference between ILSO Super Melting Sebum Softener and Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil?

At ILSO, these products share the Super Melting Sebum name. The Super Melting Sebum Softener is a softener, while the Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil is a cleansing oil in a pump bottle. They are different product types, used at different steps of a routine.

What is the difference between ILSO Moringa Tightening Pore Serum and Peptide 3X Pore Lifting Ampoule?

The Moringa Tightening Pore Serum is a dropper serum whose label lists Moringa, PHA and Pore Complex. The Peptide 3X Pore Lifting Ampoule is an ampoule in a pump bottle with Peptide in its title. ILSO names them differently, so compare the labels before choosing.

Which ILSO cleanser should I choose?

ILSO offers several formats: oils, the Pore-relief Cleansing Oil and the Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil, the Grain Potato Cleansing Pack Foam, the Rice Potato Pore Fresh Wash-Off and the Clean Mud Cream. The oils sit in the Makeup Removers collection. Pick the format you prefer at the start of your routine.

Is ILSO suitable for sensitive skin?

No promise here: several ILSO titles mention Calming, such as the Cicazulene Calming Toner or the Eoseongcho Tenderjom Double Calming Ampoule, but a word in a title guarantees nothing. Read the ingredient list, patch-test and ask a professional if in doubt.

What routine can I build with ILSO?

With ILSO, one possible routine follows the usual order: an oil (Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil), a cleanser, pads (Moringa Purifying Pore Pad), a serum (Moringa Tightening Pore Serum), a cream (Daily Moisture Pudding Cream) and, in the morning, the Bilberry Cool Calming Moisture Sunscreen. Adapt the steps to your needs and add one product at a time.

Does ILSO have a sunscreen?

Yes, the ILSO selection at Ma Petite Coree includes the Bilberry Cool Calming Moisture Sunscreen. The tube label lists Bilberry Complex, Hyaluronic Acid and Xylitol. You will find it in the Sunscreens collection, shipped from Seoul like the rest of the selection.

Where can I buy ILSO in Europe?

You can buy ILSO at Ma Petite Coree, which ships the selection from Seoul. The full ILSO selection sits in the ILSO collection, with collections by product type to compare quickly.

Who is ILSO?

ILSO is a K-beauty skincare brand. Its name is written “ilso” in lowercase on the packaging, which is why many people also search for it as “il so” or “ils o”. At Ma Petite Coree, the ILSO selection ships from Seoul.

Read through the product titles and one theme comes up often: pores and sebum. You will find, for example, the Moringa Tightening Pore Serum, the Super Melting Sebum Softener and the Natural Mild Clear Nose Patch. Other products point instead to calm or hydration, such as the Cicazulene Calming Toner or the Daily Moisture Softening Lotion.

ILSO product families and highlighted ingredients

To help you find your way, Ma Petite Coree groups ILSO products by name. These are groupings by name made by Ma Petite Coree, not a classification from the brand:

As for ingredients, here is what the labels visible in the photos list: Moringa, PHA and Pore Complex for the Moringa serum and pads; Heartleaf, Ascorbic Acid and Niacinamide for the Eoseongcho Tenderjom ampoule and pads; Potato Extract, Rice Bran PDRN and Rice Bran Water for the Rice Potato Pore Fresh Wash-Off; Centella Asiatica, Azulene and Panthenol for the Cicazulene Calming Toner; Mulberry, Glutathione and Niacinamide for the CG Toning Serum; Spicule, Hyaluronic Acid and Licorice Extract for the HA-Shot Booster Serum. Always read the full ingredient list on the product you receive.

How to choose an ILSO product

The easiest way is to think in routine steps, based on product names. To cleanse, there are oils, the Pore-relief Cleansing Oil and the Super Melting Sebum Cleansing Oil, the Grain Potato Cleansing Pack Foam and the Rice Potato Pore Fresh Wash-Off. After that come pads (Moringa Purifying Pore Pad, Eoseongcho Tenderjom Double Calming Pad), a toner (Cicazulene Calming Toner), and ampoules and serums such as the Peptide 3X Pore Lifting Ampoule, the HA-Shot Booster Serum or the CG Toning Serum.

For hydration, the Daily Moisture Pudding Cream and the Daily Moisture Softening Lotion carry Daily Moisture in their titles. In the daytime, the Bilberry Cool Calming Moisture Sunscreen completes the routine. For one specific area, look at the nose products or the No Trouble Spot Patch.

Add one product at a time, read the ingredient list on the packaging and patch-test before any new product. If you hesitate between two products from the same family, compare their titles: they show the format and the routine step.

The Serums collection includes, for example, the Moringa Tightening Pore Serum and the HA-Shot Booster Serum. In Masks you will find the Peptide Pore Tension Mask and the Rice Potato Pore Fresh Wash-Off. The Toners collection holds the Moringa Purifying Pore Pad and the Cicazulene Calming Toner, and Makeup Removers includes the ILSO cleansing oils. For morning protection, open Sunscreens, and for patches, Spot Patches, where the Natural Mild Clear Nose Pack and the No Trouble Spot Patch sit.

What makes ILSO easy to recognise

The first landmark is the packaging. In the product photos, the name “ilso” is printed in large letters, the product name sits above it and, on many bottles, the highlighted ingredients are listed underneath. On the Moringa Tightening Pore Serum bottle, the label reads “Moringa, PHA, Pore Complex”; on the Peptide Pore Tension Mask sachet, it reads “Peptide, Panthenol, Hyaluronic Acid”.

Some packs also carry a printed line: “Point Derma, ILSO” on the sheet mask, “Solution By ilso” on the HA-Shot Booster Serum and the CG Toning Serum. These are packaging lines, not promises of results.

The second landmark is the range of formats: cleansing oils, a foam, a wash-off product, pads, ampoules, serums, a lotion, a cream, nose patches, a sheet mask and a sunscreen. You can build a full routine under one brand name, or add a single product to the routine you already have.
