Medicube Zero Pore Blackhead Mud Mask — 3-Minute Deep Pore Cleanse (100g)
Medicube Zero Pore Blackhead Mud Mask — 3-Minute Deep Pore Cleanse with AHA BHA PHA
Meet a precision pore-care system crafted for anyone wrestling with visible blackheads, whiteheads, and excess oil. This 3-minute K-beauty mask deep-cleans over 20,000 pores, delivering clinically backed results that show up within two weeks of use.
Two years of technology development and 240 days of ingredient research went into this formula, translating complex science into real, noticeable skin improvements.
How it works
This mask combines deep-suction clays with a triple-acid complex to clear pores and calm skin in a single step. Here's what each part does:
- Pore Suction System: A multi-clay action pulls impurities from within pores. Five clay types work together to extract debris, tighten the pore left behind, and reduce surface oil for a visibly clearer complexion.
- Canadian Glacial Clay, Kaolin, Bentonite, and two additional clays have particle sizes smaller than the average pore diameter, allowing them to reach deeper than surface cleansers.
- Triple-acid complex: AHA (Glycolic Acid) exfoliates surface cells; BHA (Salicylic Acid) dissolves oil-based debris inside pores; PHA (Gluconolactone) provides gentle, sustained exfoliation safe for sensitive skin.
- After cleansing, allantoin and green tea extract calm irritation and provide anti-inflammatory support for a refreshed, non-stripped feel.
What you can expect — proven results
The formula's performance is backed by clinical testing, with measurable improvements in pore size, oil, and blackheads:
- Pore volume reduced by 23.1%, visible pore count down 19.9%, pore area shrunk by 22.3%.
- One-use performance: blackheads and whiteheads reduced by 14.77%, sebum/oil reduced by 53.47%, waste within pores reduced by 98.4%, with an instant cooling effect (temperature drop of 20.77°F).
