Description

The COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser is a daily face wash formulated to help deeply cleanse the skin while targeting excess oil, clogged pores, and breakouts.

Infused with Salicylic Acid (BHA), this cleanser works to gently exfoliate inside the pores, helping to remove buildup of oil, dirt, and dead skin cells that can lead to blackheads and acne. It also helps calm blemish-prone skin while maintaining a clean and refreshed feel after each wash.

Despite its acne-fighting benefits, the formula is designed to be gentle enough for daily use, helping maintain skin balance without over-drying. It leaves the skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed, making it ideal for oily and acne-prone skin types.

With consistent use, skin appears clearer, smoother, and more refined, with reduced congestion and improved texture.

U3C Expert Tip

If using this cleanser with other exfoliating products (like AHAs, BHAs, or Retinol), monitor skin closely to avoid over-exfoliation and dryness. Always follow with hydration.

U3C Skin Insight

Breakouts often start with pore congestion. Salicylic Acid helps address this early by cleaning inside the pores, making it a strong foundation step for acne-prone skincare routines.

U3C Recommendation

For best results, pair this cleanser with a Niacinamide Serum to help control oil and a Ceramide Moisturizer to maintain skin barrier health. Always finish with sunscreen during the day to prevent dark marks and irritation.
