Medicube Salicylic Acid Cleansing Pads | Pore Care
Most exfoliating products target either the surface or the pores — rarely both, and rarely in a format this effortless. These Medicube Salicylic Acid Cleansing Pads are pre-loaded with Salicylic Acid (BHA) and Lactic Acid (AHA) in every pad, so one swipe after cleansing tackles pore congestion, surface dullness, oiliness and dark spots simultaneously. No measuring, no guesswork. A single-step K-beauty ritual that keeps skin consistently clearer and more refined with daily use — one of the simplest upgrades you can make to a skincare routine. Pack of pre-soaked cotton pads / 295g.
- Salicylic Acid (BHA) — penetrates deep into pores to dissolve oil, clear blackheads and reduce breakout frequency at the source — works inside the pore, not just on the surface
- Lactic Acid (AHA) — gently resurfaces the skin's outer layer to smooth texture, fade dark spots and brighten the complexion
- Dual-action exfoliation — BHA + AHA in a single pad tackles both surface dullness and pore congestion simultaneously
- Allantoin — soothing botanical that calms any acid-related sensitivity and actively supports the skin barrier during use
- Daily-use concentration — formulated for everyday use without over-exfoliating or disrupting the skin barrier
- Pre-soaked pads — no measuring, no mess; each pad delivers an exact dose of actives every time; fragrance-free and suitable for blemish-prone skin
- Step 1: Use on clean, dry skin after your cleanser
- Step 2: Take one pad and swipe gently across the face — forehead, cheeks, nose, chin — avoiding the eye area
- Step 3: Do not rinse off — allow to absorb fully before applying the next step
- Step 4: Follow with SPF in the morning; use morning and/or evening
- New users: Start with evening use only for 1–2 weeks before introducing morning use — your skin needs time to adjust to daily acid use

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use these every day?
Yes — the concentration is designed for daily use. This is what differentiates daily-use pads from treatment-strength acid products. That said, if you are new to acid exfoliants, start with evening use only for the first 1–2 weeks to let your skin adjust. Once your skin has adapted (no redness or sensitivity), you can add morning use. Always follow with SPF in the morning when using any exfoliating acid product.
What makes BHA better than AHA for pores?
BHA (Salicylic Acid) is oil-soluble, which means it can pass through the sebum that lines pores and work inside them — dissolving the mix of dead cells, oil and debris that forms blackheads and congestion. AHAs (like Lactic Acid) are water-soluble and work on the skin's surface — improving texture, brightness and tone. Using both together in one pad gives you pore-depth clearing and surface refinement in a single step, which is why these pads outperform either acid used alone.
Can I use these alongside my other skincare?
Yes — apply the pad after cleansing and before serums or moisturisers. Do not rinse after swiping. Allow 1–2 minutes for the acids to absorb before applying the next product. Avoid using alongside other exfoliating acids or physical scrubs on the same application — one exfoliant per session is enough. If you use retinol at night, use the pads in the morning only, or alternate evenings (retinol one night, pads the next).
How long before I see clearer skin?
Most people notice a smoother, brighter skin texture within the first 1–2 weeks of daily use. Reduction in blackheads and pore congestion becomes visible from weeks 2–4. Post-breakout dark spots (PIH) typically begin to fade from weeks 4–8. For best results, combine with a non-stripping cleanser and SPF every morning — consistent use of SPF prevents new dark spots from forming while these pads work on existing ones.
