Product Overview
Reveal a beautifully smooth, radiant, and balanced complexion with COSRX's signature resurfacing solution. The COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid is a highly effective, lightweight chemical exfoliant designed to gently sweep away dulling dead skin cells and clear trapped pore blockages. Formulated with a concentrated blend of 7% Glycolic Acid and antioxidant-rich fruit waters, this multitasking liquid toner gently dissolves the intercellular glue that binds dry, dead skin to the surface. It targets persistent tiny white bumps, smooths rough patches, and promotes natural skin cell turnover, allowing your skin to achieve that coveted, healthy-looking "glass skin" finish.
Why You'll Love It / Key Benefits
- Melts Away Whiteheads & Bumps: Gently exfoliates the outermost layer of the skin to clear closed comedones, whiteheads, and stubborn texture.
- Brightens and Evens Skin Tone: Actively revives tired, dull-looking skin, helping to fade the appearance of dark spots, pigmentation, and post-acne marks.
- Refines Rough Surface Texture: Smooths out flaky and uneven patches, leaving your face feeling incredibly soft and perfectly prepped for makeup.
- Binds Essential Hydration: Infused with moisture-locking humectants that draw water deep into the skin's surface, preventing any tight, stripped, or dry sensations post-use.
- Optimized for Low Irritation: Features a clean, unfragranced, and pH-balanced formula that delivers clinical exfoliating power with maximum comfort.
Key Ingredients / Features
- 75% Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Water: Serves as a nutrient-rich base instead of plain mineral water. It is a natural source of Alpha Hydroxy Acids that boosts exfoliation and brightens the skin while keeping irritation to a minimum.
- 7% Glycolic Acid (AHA): A highly effective water-soluble chemical exfoliant derived from sugarcane. Its small molecular size allows it to dissolve dry skin buildup efficiently and encourage fresh cell turnover.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): A stellar skin-restoring active that strengthens the moisture barrier, controls excess shine, and reduces the appearance of uneven spot marks.
- Panthenol & Sodium Hyaluronate: A soothing duo of humectants that instantly attract and lock in deep moisture, keeping the skin plumped, hydrated, and calm.
Who Is It For?
- Dull or Congested Skin: Excellent for complexions struggling with whiteheads, flat bumps, and pore impurities.
- Rough or Flaky Texture: Perfect for dry or combination skin types that suffer from rough, uneven texture and dry patches.
- Early Signs of Aging: Supports skin elasticity by smoothing dry dehydration lines and promoting natural skin renewal.
- Experienced Exfoliant Users: Designed for those whose skin is already accustomed to gentle acids and is ready for targeted, high-performance results.
How to Use
- Cleanse: Start with a clean, thoroughly washed and dried face.
- Apply: Dispense a small amount onto a cotton pad and swipe a thin layer over your face and neck, avoiding the eye and mouth area. (Alternatively, pump directly into clean palms and pat gently onto target zones).
- Wait: For maximum results and absorption, wait 10 minutes before proceeding with your next routine step.
- Routine Frequency: Apply in your evening routine. Begin by using once a week, then gradually build up to 2 to 3 times a week as your skin builds tolerance.
- Protect Your Skin: AHA can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or higher the following morning.
- Ingredient Cautions: On the days you use this liquid, avoid using high-concentration BHA, Retinol, or Vitamin C treatments on the same day.
