Still, if you are interested in what I think of this hyped up brand,  here is the review of the COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad that promised clear skin.  I got it from the Wishtrend Cosrx Silky Skin texture package.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad is the star product of COSRX.  Some even said it get rid of acne overnight but of course you aren't getting that kind of rave from me 😊.

So, here is what I think.  The packages does look like the dupe of Stridex but since I haven't tried Stridex before so I have no idea how it compares to Stridex. Anyhow, here is what I think of this product after using it for 3 weeks.

The jar is sure way bigger than cotton pads probably to make it easier to take out the products. It would be better if there is a tweezer to take the product out than rather with just plain fingers since it can contaminate the products😵.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad comes with 70 sheets of cotton pads. The cotton pads has an embossed side and a soft side (non embossed) side.  Both of the side comes with different features

 Embossed side-  Exfoliates / Regulates sebum production / Removes impurities
Smooth side-  Hydrates / Promotes smoother skin / Improves facial skin texture

Personally I feel both of them are the same except that the embossed side exfoliate the skin better as I can see some dirt on that side.  Not sure about the smooth side claiming to hydrates my skin since I think the ingredients those pads soaked in is the same😶.

COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad smells of light orange peel which is one of the ingredients inside the solution soaked so no added fragrance in there.  As for the ingredients the first ingredients is the Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Water which provides the cleansing, regulates sebum, reduces inflammation of acne prone skin.  Salix Alba Willow Water is actually very gentle so for people who are used to strong AHA, BHA, peels or other acne products will not feel or see any difference in using this product😎.

Other ingredients that helps to calm down acne is Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil.  There is Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Panthenol which is hydrating to the skin so it is also suitable for dry skin type.

There is Allantoin present which is an ingredients that is part of anti aging products and thus using this products will help condition the skin to be 'younger'😍.

As for the effect on my skin, I have actually finish the whole jar of Cosrx One Step Pimple Clear Pad and I think it is gentle.  It is not really making my acne disappeared overnight(I have really stubborn acne skin ) but it does reduce the severity of my acne and make the pimples come to a head faster.  I do need to combine this Cosrx Pimple Clear Pad with other products. Personally I use it as toner to clean my skin and prepare my skin for other skincare products.

Overall, COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad is a gentle exfoliation products for skin types that is dull, acne prone, dry and have never tried other strong prescription acne products.  However, it is best not to scrub the skin too hard with the pads as frequent hard friction can cause sensitivity and redness.

If you are already trying prescription products such as tretinoin and loving those, I think you will probably just find this 'meh' (meaning nothing great) or it won't do a thing on your skin.
