Unlock a crystal-clear complexion with the COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid. This cult-favorite Korean chemical exfoliant is specifically formulated to resurface the skin, targeting stubborn whiteheads, congestion, and dullness. By gently dissolving the “glue” that holds dead skin cells together, it reveals the fresh, glowing layer beneath without the irritation of physical scrubs.
Product Overview
If your skin feels rough, looks dull, or is prone to closed comedones (whiteheads), this liquid is your holy grail. Formulated with 7% Glycolic Acid (AHA) and a base of 78% Apple Fruit Water, it provides a dual-action approach: intensive exfoliation and deep hydration. It works over time to minimize the appearance of fine lines, lighten post-acne hyperpigmentation, and refine large pores.
Why It’s Special
-
Effective Chemical Exfoliation: Uses Glycolic Acid, the smallest AHA molecule, to penetrate deeply and clear out debris trapped inside pores.
-
Natural AHA Base: Instead of plain water, it uses Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Water, which contains natural malic acid to boost the brightening effect.
-
Non-Drying Formula: Enriched with Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Sodium Hyaluronate to soothe the skin and lock in moisture, preventing the “tight” feeling often associated with acids.
-
Minimalist Ingredients: Fragrance-free and formulated with a short, clean ingredient list to minimize the risk of irritation.
