Race specific Beauty Advice

I'm a asian with a oil slick for a forehead, and in searching skin care tips and product recommendations I noticed that most of the articles are for westerners. The chemicals compositions of the products in the articles would cause skin irritations or not be as effective for my skin type.

Asians tend to have thicker skin, hyperpigmetation issues, and enlarged pores dues to oily skin. And using products with alcohol or salicylic acid can dry our skin and irritate it, or worst have the opposite effect and cause more breakouts.

I would appericate it if you had a skin care article on what to look for in products that are more suited for asian type skin.

I also have oily forehead, but normal for the rest of my face. I'd like a great facial cleanser recommendation if anyone has one.
