medicube Zero Foam Cleanser for Sensitive Skin – Sebum Control, Moisture Balance, and Pore Minimization | Korean Skincare

SHOCKED but update included!
UPDATE: So I am encountering a STRANGE problem. As I stated before – I’m experiencing a breakout from extreme sweating. That was about 3 weeks ago and it is taking so long to clear up. I’ve never experienced this. It’s frustrating, I feel insecure. I don’t know if I chose the worst possible time to try this product or if it’s just my personal healing experience? Again, first time, Im not exactly sure how to handle this. However – what’s STRANGE and this is going to sound so bizarre. I’m not taking away stars from my review. I feel like, somehow, this wash along with the zero pore pads have shrunken the pores between my eyebrows and nose SO much that the gunk underneath is trapped. I’m a picker. And I’ve tried to control myself – but I just want it GONE you know? So i’m trying to squeeze.. there is no pore for it to escape from. So then I burst blood vessels. And it only makes it worse. SO I’m going to use all self control and not pick. Surprise, I did just this morning, prolonging this. I’m adding this to my review because – if I had not had this breakout prior, if I let it heal while withholding from this product, does it mean that when healthy skin is back, this shrinking of pores will leave me a glass skin queen? Or will things forever be trapped? BECAUSE the products are working so well? I am stuck in a cycle. I will update once I get this breakout cleared. I may be reviewing into the void but this feels like a science experiment and unfortunately I am the experiment.Important to note: I am now exclusively using this face wash, the mild zero pore pads, PDRN salmon toner, PDRN hyaluronic acid serum, PDRN salmon exosome shot 1-3 times a week, PDRN salmon moisturizer in morning and the jelly cream at night.ORIGINAL REVIEW:My photos are a before and after of the FIRST wash. Firstly, My skin is combination (more on the dry side) with an oily T-zone and I am not normally acne prone nor do I have sensitive skin. (My forehead has never broken out like this and its from sweating while mowing the lawn YAY). I am a first time Medicube user. I did a LOT of looking around before I took the chance on this product.I am the type to dispense way more product than I usually need but I fought the urge and used less than normal and it really does literally does just take a little bigger than a pea size to cover your whole face. That’s a BIG (and surprising) bonus to me because it means this will bottle will last awhile! It suds up nice and feels luxuriously smooth. I made sure to rub it around for atleast 60 seconds. After rinsing off, I don’t feel dry or stripped or irritated. Just really clean. The scent is mild.I also got the Zero Pore pads (mild because the other was sold out but I’ll just try to get it when I run out of these). In conjunction, I think they work really well. I’ve always had large pores/blackheads on the side of my nose, on my nose, between my eyebrows, and on my chin. I am so shocked at how much they were cleaned out it’s almost like I can feel the air hit my skin better if that makes sense LOL. After every wash I am still shocked at how clear my pores are.I use Cerave hydrating toner after the pore pads but I’m in an experimenting era and plan on getting more Medicube products especially after the results of this face wash! I think this is a GREAT morning/night wash. Start the day off with fresh clean pores. End the night by cleaning out what built up over the day. (Many mornings I don’t wash my face and just use Garnier SkinActive Hyaluronic acid + aloe cleansing micellar water with toner. With this breakout I have been avoiding moisturizer in all these steps because I felt it was making it worse).My reviews are always all over the place and probably has unsolicited advice but I hope this helps someone. For the price, this is worth the try! Bye!

Best decision ever
I was hesitant to try another new product but at my wits end with everything else. So glad I did. I noticed a difference immediately with how well it cleansed my skin of makeup residue (I always use a makeup wipe to take the majority of my makeup off first), a little goes a long way, no adverse reaction (I have very sensitive skin), I like how creamy it is and I love how my face feels once it has been washed off. I’ve been using it a little over two weeks now and my pores are slowly getting smaller, especially the ones by the side of my nose, which tells me it is pulling out the gunk that was in there. I’ve noticed my face is not nearly as oily as it was before which is a huge plus for me, the breakouts/red inflamed/irritated skin have drastically reduced as well. I’m excited to keep using this and to see how it changes my skin for the better.

Love At First Use 🤍💕
The Medicube PDRN Marshmallow Whip Cleanser won me over on the very first use. I was genuinely impressed by how soft and clean my skin felt afterward. This is one of those cleansers where a tiny amount goes a long way—seriously, a little turns into a LOT of foam. It’s almost too good at that, because sometimes it takes me a minute to rinse it all off. But honestly, that’s a small tradeoff for how clean and refreshed my skin feels.There’s no harsh odor and no irritation, just a gentle, fluffy lather that leaves my face feeling smooth and hydrated. The results after the first wash alone were enough to convince me I’ll be repurchasing.If you want a cleanser that feels luxurious and actually makes a difference after one use, this one is definitely worth trying.

オレンジ色の洗顔料で、泡立てると白くなります。独特な匂いがします。香料のいい匂いではないです。おそらくターメリックでしょうか。一瞬硫黄かなにかの匂いかと思いました。洗っているとなんとなくピリッと刺激があるように感じました。AHAのピーリング洗顔でしばらく顔パックしていた時のような。洗い流すと、洗浄力の強いもので洗った時のようにつっぱった感じがあるような。顔の水分を拭き取るとカサカサするものが顔に。強めの洗顔料でパックもするくらいの時間洗い上げたあとにできるようなアレ。古い角質なのか、洗顔料の洗い残しなのか。一応説明では、量を多く使うと洗い残しが起きる場合があると注意書きはあります。鏡を見ると、なんとなくところどころ顔が赤らんでいるような気も。好転反応であれば良いなと思っていますが様子見。シミに効くということなので、つまり古い角質を洗浄する必要があるので、そのために強めの洗浄力なのかなと思っています。個人的にそういうのを今まで使ってきていて抵抗がないので、1本使い切ってみようと思います。刺激が強いのは確かだと思います。

I worked in the medical aesthetics industry so I’m familiar with products from the “big brands” like Alumier, Zo, Vivier etc. That being said, I’m used to products that perform, or else they get trashed (Because why waste your time with something that’s just not working, right?) This cleanser has easily out performed my medical grade cleansers by miles. I’m very acne prone, so it did cause a small purge— but after my skin was so great.I would say it’s worth the cost, and I’ll definitely be repurchasing again. Acne is all gone and my pores are tight and right!
