The COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser (50ml) is a powerful, deep-cleansing solution designed specifically to target acne, blemishes, and excess oil, making it a perfect companion for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types. Known for its ability to gently exfoliate the skin and penetrate deeply into pores, this cleanser uses salicylic acid as its hero ingredient to dissolve excess sebum and help unclog pores.
Unlike many acne-fighting cleansers that leave the skin feeling tight and dry, COSRX has formulated this cleanser to be gentle enough for everyday use while still delivering strong results. It balances oil production, soothes inflamed and irritated skin, and provides a fresh, clean feeling without over-drying or disrupting the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
This travel-sized version (50ml) is perfect for those who are always on the go, ensuring that your skin can stay clean and balanced wherever you are. The mild foaming action helps effectively remove dirt, impurities, and dead skin cells while treating active breakouts, leaving your skin looking clear and radiant
- Preparation: Begin by wetting your face with lukewarm water. This helps open up the pores, making it easier for the cleanser to penetrate.
- Application: Squeeze a pea-sized amount of the cleanser into your palm and work it into a rich lather by rubbing your hands together.
- Massage: Gently massage the lather onto your face using circular motions. Focus on areas that tend to be oilier or more acne-prone, such as the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). Avoid the delicate eye area.
- Rinse: Rinse your face thoroughly with lukewarm water to ensure all traces of the cleanser are washed away.
- Follow-up: Pat your face dry with a clean towel and follow up with your regular skincare routine, such as toner, serum, and moisturizer.
Note: Use this cleanser twice daily, in the morning and evening, for best results. If you have sensitive skin, you may start with once daily and gradually increase to twice daily as your skin adjusts to the active ingredients.
Benefits:
- Deep Cleansing: The salicylic acid works to clean deep within the pores, dissolving excess oil, dirt, and dead skin cells that can clog pores and cause breakouts. This ensures thorough removal of impurities, leaving the skin feeling fresh and revitalized.
- Acne Treatment: The key ingredient, salicylic acid, effectively treats acne by penetrating the pores and exfoliating dead skin cells, reducing blackheads, whiteheads, and active blemishes.
- Prevents Future Breakouts: By controlling sebum production and keeping the pores clear, the cleanser helps prevent future acne breakouts from forming.
- Soothes Inflammation: With ingredients like tea tree oil and willow bark water, this cleanser helps soothe irritated and inflamed skin, reducing redness and swelling associated with acne.
- Hydrates & Nourishes: The inclusion of glycerin and saccharomyces ferment ensures that your skin remains hydrated and nourished, preventing the dryness and tightness that can often occur with acne treatments.
- Gentle Exfoliation: The mild exfoliating properties of salicylic acid and willow bark water promote cell turnover, which helps brighten the complexion and smooth the skin texture over time.
- Non-Stripping Formula: Despite its powerful acne-fighting properties, the cleanser is gentle enough for daily use and does not strip the skin of its natural moisture, making it suitable even for sensitive skin.
- Controls Oil Production: By balancing sebum levels, the cleanser helps keep the skin looking matte and shine-free throughout the day, making it particularly beneficial for individuals with oily skin.
