Product Description:
If bottles of acids and pH charts feel intimidating, a pre-soaked exfoliating pad is the easiest way into chemical exfoliation. The COSRX One Step Original Clear Pad, a popular COSRX product available in Canada, comes in a jar of 70 cotton pads soaked in a gentle willow bark and BHA essence, made to wipe away dead skin cells and excess oil in a single, no-rinse swipe. It helps skin look clearer and feel fresh and balanced.
As an exfoliating pad, it pairs willow bark water with betaine salicylate, a gentle BHA that is milder than pure salicylic acid, plus soothing panthenol, allantoin, and tea tree oil. Each pad is textured on one side for gentle physical exfoliation and has a soft side to sweep away any remaining debris. It refreshes the skin without leaving it feeling tight or stripped.
This suits oily, combination, and blemish-prone skin especially well. Because it contains a mild exfoliating acid, start with two to three times a week and build up as your skin adjusts, and always wear sunscreen the next day. If you are allergic to aspirin, note that the betaine salicylate may not suit you, and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with a healthcare professional first.
