As the name suggests, there's no need to pre-open your pores with steam or anything like that.
ConsIt's hard to confirm if the steam actually opens up the pores, and the heat sensation combined with the scrub particles might actually irritate the skin. For those with super sensitive skin like me, it could potentially cause irritation. You'll need to be mindful of soothing your skin afterwards. I'd strongly recommend following up with a pore-tightening mask or something similar.

My skin feels so soft after using it!
ConsNothing particularly bad, but it can be a bit harsh. Those with super sensitive skin should be careful when using it.

It had a warm sensation like a heat pack and a tingling feeling similar to a pain relief patch, which made me feel like I was getting a professional treatment. I liked that. The particles were also small and fine, so there wasn't much irritation. It's great value for money in terms of effectiveness.
ConsWhen applied to bare skin and rubbed in, it feels a bit rough and causes slight irritation. I got some blemishes around my lip area. After use, there's some skin tightness, so I wouldn't recommend it for dry skin types or those prone to redness or blemishes from minor irritation.
TipIt's great to use while showering! Rather than rubbing it on bare skin, I recommend slightly wetting your fingers before massaging it in. Instead of scrubbing hard, it's better to gently massage using your ring finger.

This one is particularly nice because you can wash it off right away, leaving your skin feeling fresh and clean. I personally found it especially useful as a nose pack.
ConsThe tube is really inconvenient to squeeze. Considering the price, the packaging lacks user-friendliness. When applied to the face, it turns red everywhere except the nose area. Perhaps due to the scrub particles, it was quite irritating to my skin.
TipEven if you have oily skin, use this only once a week. The scrub particles can make it quite tingling when you first use it. To minimize irritation, open your pores with warm water before applying.

While searching, I found a mask that steams your pores without needing to do it separately. So I bought it right away and tried it out. I only applied it to my nose and chin, and after about a minute, I felt a warm sensation. After about 5 minutes, I gently rolled it off and rinsed with lukewarm water, and the dead skin cells came off better than I expected! I think the advantage is that you can open your pores and exfoliate without going through a complicated process. It feels different from mud masks, so even after time passed, I didn't feel like my skin was tightening or hardening. Since it's a Skinfood product, I feel like I can trust the ingredients too :) It doesn't seem to be a widely known product, but I think it's worth trying if you're concerned about pores!
ConsSince it's an exfoliating mask with granules, it might irritate those with very thin skin layers or severe acne blemishes. And honestly, even though it's called a steam mask, you can't really confirm if it's actually opening your pores! It just feels warm, that's about it. When you look in the mirror after using this mask, it seems like it exfoliates, but you don't really feel like blackheads or whiteheads are being removed! Maybe because it's a steam mask, whiteheads do come out of the pores, but they don't fall off, so you might need to remove them separately with something like a cotton swab.
TipThey say that exfoliation with granules can be irritating on thin skin areas like under the eyes or cheeks. So I've been using this mask only on my T-zone and V-zone every 3 days, and it seems good!! When rolling, they say it's better not to do it too hard, but to do it gently with relaxed fingers. After exfoliating, I wipe off sebum with a black cotton swab, and it definitely helps with sebum removal :) For those concerned about pores or who produce a lot of sebum in their pores, I think it would be effective to open the pores with this mask, exfoliate, remove sebum with a cotton swab, and then use a soothing mask.

I focused on using it on my nose and chin since it's supposed to remove blackheads, but I was careful with my cheeks, gently massaging a few times before rinsing to avoid irritation from the granules. I was amazed at how incredibly soft my cheeks became - I couldn't stop touching them for a while, thinking 'Wow, this is amazing!' The warmth helps remove dead skin cells effectively, but there's absolutely no dryness after washing. In that aspect, I highly recommend it. For reference, I have sensitive, oily, acne-prone skin, so I'm usually very cautious with cosmetics, but this didn't cause any stinging or redness at all.
ConsWhile it doesn't immediately remove blackheads, the steam effect seems to open up the pores, creating an ideal condition for blackhead extraction. I've only used a sample, so I can't speak to its long-term effects, but it's far less irritating and more effective than peel-off nose packs. However, be careful not to rub your nose too vigorously when trying to remove blackheads, as it might irritate your skin. The granules don't dissolve, so they keep hitting your skin. It's better to gently massage with your fingers two or three times and then rinse. I was a bit concerned about the PEG in the ingredients. If it didn't have that, I'd consider the ingredients quite good. Still, with only two cautionary ingredients, I don't think it's bad overall.
TipIn my opinion, using it once a week or once every two weeks should be fine. I currently use COSRX exfoliating pads daily, but I think using this product once is more effective than using the COSRX pads seven times. The difference in results is noticeable.

After gently massaging the exfoliating beads to remove dead skin cells, rinse it off and your skin feels incredibly soft. Unlike other exfoliating products that often leave your skin feeling dry, this one doesn't do that at all!
ConsDon't roll it on too vigorously! Since it's an exfoliating product, it can be potentially irritating if used too harshly!
TipPay extra attention when massaging around the nose area where there's more sebum and blackheads - it'll be really helpful there!
