COSRX Low pH Pore Deep Cleanser – 5.07 fl. oz Gentle Low-pH Face Wash for Blackheads, Cushiony Pore-Refining Foam

COSRX Low pH Pore Deep Cleanser is a gentle, cushiony facial cleanser designed to refine pores and reduce blackheads while preserving your skin's natural balance.

This low pH formula combines a soft, elastic texture with targeted pore-clearing ingredients so you can remove excess oil, makeup residue and surface impurities without over-drying. Developed to work as both a daily wash and a more intensive wash-off treatment, it uses fermented red rice and thoughtful surfactants to lift debris and support a comfortable skin barrier.

How does this cleanser reduce blackheads without stripping skin?

The cleanser's low pH helps maintain the skin's acid mantle while its stretchy, cushion-like foam lifts sebum and trapped debris from pores. It balances effective cleansing with hydration-preserving ingredients so skin feels clean but not tight.

• Low pH formula that supports natural barrier function.
• Cushiony texture that lifts impurities rather than harshly stripping oils.
• Non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic formulation to minimize pore-clogging risk.

What results can I expect after a single use?

Clinical data with this formulation shows a substantial reduction in surface sebum and makeup residue after one application, alongside visible refinement of pore appearance over repeated use. Individual results vary, but many users notice a clearer, smoother texture right away.

• Removes a high percentage of excess sebum and makeup residue in one wash.
• Helps visibly clarify pores and reduce the look of blackheads with continued use.
• Leaves skin feeling refreshed and prepared for follow-up skincare steps.

Can I use it daily, and are there alternative application methods?

Yes—this cleanser is formulated for everyday use as a water-based face wash. For deeper pore care, apply it to dry skin, massage, then rinse off as a wash-off mask to target stubborn blackheads and textured areas.

• Daily cleansing with water for regular pore maintenance.
• Use on dry skin as a wash-off mask for focused deep cleaning.
• Gentle enough for routine use while offering an intensive option when needed.

What natural and active ingredients are included to refine texture?

The formula features fermented red rice, which is more concentrated in active compounds compared with standard rice extracts, plus inositol and phytic acid to help smooth roughness and clarify pores. These components work alongside mild cleansing agents to refine skin texture without aggressive exfoliation.

• Fermented red rice for higher levels of natural active compounds.
• Inositol and phytic acid to support smoother, clearer-looking skin.
• Mild surfactants chosen to cleanse effectively while protecting the barrier.

Who is this for: COSRX Low pH Pore Deep Cleanser suits anyone seeking effective pore care without the sting of harsh cleansers—especially those with oily, combination, or congested skin looking to reduce blackheads and refine texture. It's also useful for people who want a dual-purpose product: a gentle daily cleanser with an optional deeper wash-off treatment when pores need extra attention. If you prefer fragrance-free, non-comedogenic products that prioritize barrier-friendly pH and targeted botanical actives, this cleanser is a practical addition to your routine.
