There's nothing worse than waking up in the morning, only to find a fresh whitehead on your face. Even though every dermatologist and skincare professional will tell you repeatedly that picking your skin is a bad idea, it can be really hard to resist — not to mention, equally as difficult to find effective skincare products.
Unlike classic acne, whiteheads don't drain on their own. Meaning, they can sit on your face for years if you don't find a saviour product that really works for your skin type.
In saying this, we know it can be time consuming surfing the web trying to find a helpful solution, however, one user on Reddit may have found a product that will make all of your whiteheads disappear — and the before and after pictures have to be seen to be believed.
Salma posted a thread and wrote, "Finally got rid of my closed comedones with COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid!"
Naturally, this had the internet freaking out.
"I came across this subreddit over a year ago," she wrote. "My main concern was my closed comedones on my forehead that have been there for as long as I can remember. I know it probably doesn't look too bad but it's always annoyed me. I'd been using argan oil as a moisturiser so I tried the oil cleansing method, but no luck. I then tried OCM with mineral oil as I realised I was allergic to certain oils like safflower and hemp seed oil, but no luck there either. Around this time I settled for the Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion which I've been using since, and kept a simple routine until I started chemical exfoliation this summer."
After using the liquid every day for a few months, Salma noticed a huge different in her skin. The K-beauty toner is rich with apple water that contains natural AHAs and glycolic acid, helping to exfoliate and brighten the skin.
Cosrx AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid retails for $23 and can be purchased at Nudie Glow, but you better get in quick — because with results like that, everyone's going to want to give it a try.
