There are a lot of popular beauty brands blowing up on my social media feed right now. But none are quite as ubiquitous as Medicube, the beloved K-beauty brand known for its pore pads, vitamin C capsules, exosomes and sunscreen. Right now, the brand has several deals on many of its most sought-after products on Amazon, all up to 52% off. Below, I highlight some of the best on-sale products from Medicube and why they’re worth trying out.
These pore pads have two textures: a soft side that hydrates the skin and a more textured side to exfoliate the skin, remove dead skin cells and reduce the appearance of large pores, according to the brand. They have alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) derived from fruit complexes and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) which have anti-inflammatory properties that help remove excess sebum and smooth skin. Each container comes with 70 pads and you can also get the pads with different formulas, like vitamin C and exosome pads.
Exosomes are organic vesicles released by cells, including skin cells, that carry protein and lipids, and in turn dictate how cells should behave. For example, think of them as messenger cells — for skin cells, they deliver instructions to help calm inflammation, repair damaged tissue and increase collagen and elastin production, according to experts we spoke to during previous reporting on the ingredient.
This exosome serum from Medicube helps reduce the appearance of pores, enhance the skin barrier and smooth skin texture, which is why the brand also calls it a form of “liquid microneedling.” The brand recommends applying the product after cleansing and before putting on moisturizer.
Collagen masks are becoming increasingly popular, and this one from Medicube is enhanced by polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), a chemical derived from salmon DNA that evens skin tone and strengthens the skin barrier, according to Medicube. The mask starts pink and turns clear after a few hours once the ingredients absorb into the skin.
