BHA Blackhead Power Liquid

COSRX BHA Blackhead Power Liquid is a chemical exfoliant formulated with 4% betaine salicylate (a milder salicylic acid derivative) and 67.8% willow bark water. Designed for oily, acne-prone, or congestion-prone skin, it deeply cleanses pores, dissolves blackheads, and promotes smoother, brighter skin without harsh irritation .

Benefits:

• Unclogs pores & powerfully tackles blackheads: Oil-soluble BHA penetrates deep into pores to dissolve sebum buildup.
• Balances oil production: Willow bark water and niacinamide help regulate sebum and reduce shine.
• Smooths texture & refines skin tone: Gentle exfoliation brightens skin and fades post-acne marks.
• Hydrating formula: Sodium hyaluronate and panthenol counteract dryness, ensuring a moisturizing exfoliation.
• Minimalist, no-fragrance formula: Alcohol-free, vegan, cruelty-free and fragrance-free.

How to Use:

• Start slow: Cleanse your face, then use once per week initially to assess tolerance .
• Apply: Pump a few drops onto a cotton pad or fingertips. Gently swipe over face—avoid eyes, lips, and broken areas.
• Let absorb: Wait 15–30 minutes to allow penetration before applying serums or moisturizer.
• Increase use gradually: Move to 2–3 times per week as skin adjusts.
• Sun protection is essential: Always follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect from UV sensitivity .
• Avoid layering with other strong actives: Skip other AHA/BHA, strong vitamin C, or retinoids on the same night to prevent irritation.
