How do I use the Medicube Zero Pore Pads 2.0?
After cleansing, swipe one pad across your face using the textured side first to exfoliate, then flip to the smooth side to soothe and hydrate. Use 3–4 times per week for best results. Always follow with SPF during the day as the formula contains exfoliating acids.
How often should I use them?
We recommend starting 2–3 times per week and building up to 4–5 times as your skin adjusts. If you have sensitive skin, start slow and monitor how your skin responds.
Are they suitable for sensitive skin?
The Zero Pore Pads 2.0 contain PHA, which is the gentlest of the exfoliating acids and generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. However, if your skin is reactive or you're new to acids, we recommend patch testing first and starting with less frequent use.
What's the difference between version 1.0 and 2.0?
The 2.0 formula is an upgraded version with an improved acid complex and enhanced hydrating ingredients, making it more effective while being gentler on the skin barrier compared to the original.
Can I use them in my morning and evening routine?
They can be used in either routine, but if using in the morning always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF. Many people prefer to use them in their evening routine to avoid sun sensitivity.
