REVIEW: COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser

If you’re someone with oily and acne-prone skin, you would probably be well acquainted with Salicylic Acid. But if this is your first time hearing about it, salicylic acid is a powerful exfoliating agent that can penetrate into the deeper layers of your skin to clear out all the nasty gunks, whiteheads and blackheads! In other words, it’s your skin’s new best friend!

This COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser is a salicylic acid cleanser that is great for all skin types, but especially for oily, acne-prone skin. It is a reformulated version of the older COSRX Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Cleanser, and now mild enough that you can use it everyday.

Ingredients

This COSRX cleanser contains skin-loving botanical ingredients such as Tea Tree and Willow Bark that is known for its effectiveness in treating acne, removing old skin cells, sebum, and dirt deep in the pores.

Scent

It smells refreshing, almost like citrus!

Price

$14 for 150ml is actually really affordable, since this product lathers up well and will probably last a long time.

Results

I absolutely love this cleanser, especially when I have a new pimple I want to get rid of fast. You can even use this on your back or chest, cause it clears up acne pretty much overnight! With continuous use, I can feel my skin look so much smoother and brighter. Oimples, whiteheads or blackheads don't come out as much. I would definitely recommend it to people who have oily skin or acne problems. Even if you have drier skin, you can still use this COSRX cleanser to combat breakouts!
