It's incredibly refreshing and great for oily skin. I always apply it first because it helps reduce the feeling of clogged pores. Having to shake it before use is a bit of a hassle, but it's not a major drawback. - ka*************Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedFeb 6, 2025
- No irritation even with daily morning and evening use. It seems to have a lower concentration of betaine salicylate than pimple pads. I use this as an exfoliating toner, and while pimple pads caused severe skin irritation after just two weeks, this product hasn't irritated my skin for months despite using it twice daily. Despite its name 'Power Liquid', it's not overly intense. The texture has a slight viscosity, so if you're not fond of exfoliating toners, you can still get good results by pumping and applying it directly. It's not a miracle worker that will make all your blemishes disappear or completely stop oil production, but if I skip even one application, I notice my skin condition worsening. The only downside is the worry that it might be discontinued - there are no other cons! The bottle isn't particularly large, so if you use it as a toner mask, it runs out quite quickly. However, when I haven't been able to cleanse my face for a while and there's a lot of sebum buildup, applying this as a mask for about 15 minutes before my skincare routine makes my skin incredibly smooth and glowing the next day. - ch********Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedJul 7, 2024
I decided to try this product because I heard the salicylic acid penetrates pores for a deep cleanse. The first time I used it generously on a cotton pad, I noticed some yellowish residue coming off. On the second use, I could actually see whiteheads being removed. Plus, it's even hydrating! If you have any small bumps or blackheads, you absolutely must get this. There's nothing particularly bad, but it would be nice if it came with cotton pads as a set. - js*****Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedNov 11, 2023
As someone with combination dehydrated skin that's prone to allergies and sensitivity, I've noticed deep dryness setting in now that I'm in my 30s (except during peak summer). But my skin still leans oily at its core. I always buy 3-4 bottles of this product at a time because I go through about one per month. It's exceptional at instantly tightening pores, and with continued use, you'll notice them gradually shrinking - the results really jump out at you. It has a pleasant cooling effect and absorbs beautifully, leaving skin feeling incredibly fresh. It does have a watery texture though. Here's the kicker - using it with cotton pads takes the effects to a whole new level! When I first bought it, I wasn't impressed and rarely reached for it. On a whim, I tried using it as a toner mask, and suddenly it was like a completely different product. Since then, I've been using a bottle a month. I'm taking a break for winter, but come spring, I'll be stocking up again! If you just apply it normally or use it in a mist bottle, the pore-tightening effect won't be as strong. However, it's great for quickly cooling down your face if it suddenly feels hot and flushed. Using it with pads or as a mask - anything that keeps it on your face - is absolutely essential! - ql******Combination SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsRecommendedSep 6, 2021
A runny, watery texture that glides on smoothly. After continuously using Ahava BHA Clarifying Mist Toner for skin packs, I switched to using it as a mist and felt the effects diminished, so I added this product to my routine. It has a higher concentration of natural BHA white birch water at 88% (compared to 10% in the Clarifying version). The gentle BHA betaine salicylate content is the same at 0.1%, and it's only BHA without AHA. I apply it in one or two layers like an essence, and it's gentle enough for skin packs without irritation. When I did a targeted skin pack on blemish areas, my skin was noticeably clearer the next day and blemishes subsided. The peppermint gives a slight cooling effect. I recommend this product when you want to dissolve sebum without exfoliating ingredients like in the Clarifying version. It's a BHA product suitable for super sensitive skin or those with contact dermatitis, as it doesn't contain AHA. It's very gentle, causing no redness or rashes. When used as a regular essence, the effects are moderate. For oily or combination skin prone to blemishes, the effects might be just so-so rather than significant. It's okay for daily use to prevent small bumps, and seems effective when used as a skin pack for pustular acne. Try cutting a cotton pad into small, fingernail-sized pieces for targeted skin packs on blemish areas. - af*******Oily SkinSensitive SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedFeb 25, 2020
I'm pleasantly surprised by the lack of reviews for this gem! First off, unlike some other COSRX offerings, this product is incredibly gentle and hasn't caused any irritation on my super sensitive skin. A major plus is its lack of fragrance, which was a constant issue with other products. With regular use alongside other pore-minimizing products, I've noticed my skin feeling tighter, effectively reducing the appearance of my previously enlarged pores. You can incorporate this into your routine as either a toner or essence. Simply dampen a cotton pad and apply it to areas with large, stretched pores, or skip the cotton pad altogether and apply it directly. Just dispense a small amount into your palm and pat it onto your face. My favorite application method is using it as a 'skin pack'. This technique allows the cooling ingredients in the formula to soothe my skin. I typically leave it on for about 5 minutes before moving on to the next step in my routine. For those concerned about the concentration of acids, rest easy. This product contains a very mild 0.1% BHA. I use it in combination with a cream containing both AHA and BHA, and my complexion has never looked better! The only minor drawback I can think of is that the pump tends to dispense more product than necessary due to the consistency, but that's a small issue. It's worth noting that using this product alone might not yield significant results. For noticeable improvements in pore appearance and skin elasticity, you may need to pair it with other products containing active ingredients. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedFeb 3, 2020
As a liquid formula, it's super convenient and hygienic for guys to just squeeze and pat it on. I'm really satisfied with how easy it is to use. It feels like it's delivering deep hydration, making it perfect as the first step in a skincare routine. The amount is less than expected. While the liquid form is great for squeezing out, the downside is that it's tricky to control how much you use. - mj******Combination SkinInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityRednessRecommendedDec 17, 2019
I bought this for my pores and nose sebum issues. It's a non-viscous liquid formula that flows smoothly. I used it every evening as a toner substitute, applying it with a cotton pad. For my nose, I wiped it several times more thoroughly. To be honest, I didn't notice a huge difference compared to regular toners. It did help somewhat in smoothing out dead skin cells on my face. One thing I really appreciated was that it's nearly fragrance-free. Unfortunately, it didn't really help much with my pores or blackheads. I've only used about half the bottle though, so maybe that's why? - yu*******Combination SkinRecommendedJul 16, 2019
I have combination skin with redness and was concerned about my pores, so I decided to try the Two-in-One Poreless Power Liquid. Overall, I've been very satisfied with all the COSRX products I've used. This one has a watery consistency, so you can use it like a toner! It contains BHA, which helps with dead skin cell removal. I liked how it cleaned up the bumpy sebum, similar to after using COSRX pads. It's lightweight and great for wiping your face after cleansing. I usually don't get many blemishes, but after using this product, I suddenly got a lot of them on my face. While I can't definitively say it's because of this product, seeing these blemishes appear after using it makes me think it might not be suitable for my skin! - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJul 5, 2019
Great value for money! I was worried because I suddenly had a lot of blemishes, but when I used it like a mask by soaking a cotton pad, it was soothing and effective. There's not really anything to complain about. It just seems more effective to use it with a cotton pad rather than applying it directly with your hands.
