COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid 100ml
Meet COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid, a targeted exfoliating solution designed to address whiteheads and congested pores while maintaining a comfortable skin feel. This 100 ml bottle combines a potent 7% glycolic acid blend with a gentle apple water base and a select trio of skin-supporting actives to renew texture, brighten tone, and prepare skin for subsequent serums and moisturizers. It’s crafted for those who want a visible improvement in pore clarity and a smoother complexion without harsh drying.
Key ingredients work in harmony to deliver a balanced exfoliation experience. The formula relies on a hydrating apple water base (a substantial portion of the mixture) paired with 7% glycolic acid (AHA) to gently dissolve dull, dead skin cells. Niacinamide helps regulate oil and support barrier function while assisting with brightening, and panthenol (pro‑vitamin B5) with hyaluronic acid provide lightweight moisture to prevent over-drying during treatment. This combination targets the root causes of whiteheads—congestion and excessive cell buildup—while supporting a more even skin texture over time.
Who it's for
Ideal for oily, combination, and normal skin types that struggle with whiteheads, clogged pores, and uneven texture. It’s most effective for users who are comfortable with chemical exfoliants and want to proactively manage pore clarity. If you have very sensitive or reactive skin, or you’re new to acids, consider starting with a lower frequency and patch testing before full routine integration.
Key features
- 7% glycolic acid exfoliates surface dead skin cells to help prevent whitehead formation and refine pore texture.
- Apple water base provides gentle hydration and a soothing, light feel on the skin.
- Niacinamide supports barrier health, helps regulate sebum, and contributes to a more even complexion.
- Panthenol and hyaluronic acid deliver lightweight moisture, reducing the risk of over-drying during exfoliation.
- Formulated to work as part of a balanced routine, enabling smoother makeup application and a brighter look over time.
- Compact 100 ml bottle makes it easy to incorporate into a nighttime routine without bulk.
How to use
- Start with clean skin. After cleansing, apply 2–3 drops to a cotton pad and gently sweep across the face, avoiding the eye area.
- Begin with 2–3 uses per week at night. If tolerated well after 2–3 weeks, gradually increase to 3–5 times per week as needed, based on your skin’s response.
- Do not mix with other strong acids or retinoids on the same night. If you use vitamin C or other actives, consider staggering usage so they don’t overlap in the same routine.
- Follow with a hydrating moisturizer to lock in moisture. In the mornings, apply sunscreen as AHAs can increase sun sensitivity.
- Patches test before first use and observe how your skin responds for the first 48 hours. If irritation occurs, reduce frequency or discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
