I soaked a cotton pad, applied it to my face, covered it with plastic wrap, and left it on for 10 minutes before removing the sebum. Yellow sebum came out from my nose and forehead, and it seemed to refine my skin texture. For those with super sensitive skin, be careful as it may cause redness. Use it cautiously for the best results.
ConsIt stings and tingles around the eyes. The scent isn't pleasant, but it's tolerable.

I soak a cotton pad and leave it on like a mask for about five minutes. Then, I just lightly press with an extractor, and all the sebum comes right out! It's amazing how effective it is.
ConsThe downside is that it's a bit harsh. When I use it like a nose pack, it stings my eyes a little. I suppose that's because it's quite potent.

After cleansing, I soak a cotton pad with it, leave it on while showering, and when I remove it, the sebum comes right up, making it easy to remove. 2. For a sebum softener, it offers great value for money. 3. I didn't experience any irritation or blemishes after using it.
Cons1. If you place the cotton pad too close to your eyes, it can cause a stinging sensation. 2. The bottle opening is a bit awkward when soaking the cotton pad.

It seems effective at removing blackheads and excess sebum. I appreciate that it only takes 10 minutes to see results, with visible sebum being extracted.
ConsHowever, I occasionally experience a slight stinging sensation in my eyes. I'm not sure which ingredient might be causing this.

It doesn't irritate my skin and effectively removes sebum.
ConsIt contains ethanol, so there's a scent and it can sting a bit around the eyes. But it's not severe, so I don't mind at all.
TipApply it like a skin pack, then cover with plastic wrap. Steam your face for about 5 minutes with something warm, then gently scrub off with a cotton swab.

It's particularly effective at dissolving stubborn chin sebum that wouldn't budge before.
ConsThe scent is really, really unpleasant. It can cause a slight stinging sensation if applied near the eyes. It's not completely free from irritation.

I usually spend days researching products before using them. I saw reviews saying this sebum softener could be quite irritating for sensitive skin, but many also praised its excellent sebum removal. So, I finally bought it during an Olive Young sale. 🔸Pros - Removes sebum incredibly well I applied it on a cotton pad that came with the package, placing it on my nose and adjacent cheek areas right after showering. While most people seem to leave it on for 10 minutes, I felt a tingling sensation almost immediately and removed it after just 5 minutes. When I gently used a blackhead remover tool afterwards, I was shocked by the amount of sebum that came out. Even though I frequently use cleansing oils, I had no idea there was so much stubborn sebum lurking beneath. It's surprisingly effective!
Cons🔹Cons - Way too much tingling!!!!!!! As soon as I put it on my nose, I felt a creeping tingling sensation. After about a minute, it became so painful and irritating that I struggled to keep it on for the full 5 minutes. It felt like the outer layer of my skin might peel off if I left it on any longer due to the intense irritation. Even after rinsing off the product and applying my skincare routine, the stinging sensation persisted. It hurt even when I applied my usual skincare products (which I've been using for a long time and work well for me). The area around my upper lip that it slightly touched also became very painful... After using the sebum softener, my entire face turned red, with the areas where the product was applied becoming even more intensely flushed.
TipI think I'll have to limit use to once every 1-2 weeks. The sebum removal is so effective that I'm reluctant to stop using it completely, so I plan to use it occasionally. There are many ways to soften sebum, right? Like after a bath, or using a steam towel, etc. 💡 Since leaving the sebum softener on for too long is painful for the skin, it's best to soften the sebum as much as possible beforehand, then shorten the application time of this product. 💡 I'm so envious of those without sensitive skin!!!!

I've mostly been using nose packs, but after trying this, my nose became so smooth and silky. It's incredibly easy to maintain now. I can't believe I only just discovered this - it's that good! I was a bit worried about potential irritation, but there's zero irritation. In fact, it gives me even more satisfaction than nose packs. It's surprising how much gunk was in my nose! I've been enthusiastically recommending it to all my friends after using it.
ConsWhen I used it with a cotton pad around my nose area, I experienced a stinging sensation near my eyes.
TipFor maximum effectiveness, make sure to thoroughly massage with a cleansing oil before use!

To sum it up, this product is less irritating and better at removing dead skin cells, so I plan to switch to it from now on. -Scent It has a pleasant fragrance! Similar to the Daiso soothing gel. It's not an off-putting scent, but rather a subtle one that I found comfortable to use. Unlike the OneDaysYou product which had a strong menthol scent, this one is much more pleasant to use. -Dead skin cells and sebum removal This is the level of sebum removal after one use. I deliberately stopped using my regular product to let sebum build up before testing, and as you can see in the photo, it visibly dissolved a lot of sebum. While I initially thought OneDaysYou might be slightly better at sebum removal during the softening and wiping process, The Medipeel product is far superior in terms of exfoliation. Even though I regularly use both sebum softeners and peeling gels, I've never felt my nose become this smooth and free of dead skin cells. The Medipeel softener leaves my skin feeling smooth and comfortable even 24 hours after use. And that's without even using a peeling gel! -Irritation The OneDaysYou product tended to be irritating, often causing small blemishes to appear the next day. However, this product didn't cause any new blemishes or worsen existing ones, even when used on top of them! During the 10 minutes I left the soaked cotton pad on my skin, I felt no irritation at all. I appreciate that it seems to soften sebum with less irritation compared to other products.
Cons-Eye irritation While there was no irritation on my skin, I felt a slight stinging sensation in my eyes as soon as I put the cotton pad on my nose.
TipBlackheads are oil-friendly, so using cleansing oil or cleansing emulsion and gently massaging will help them disappear faster! I found the most effective routine for removing blackheads was using a softener right after showering, followed by a cleansing emulsion. It might be a bit harsh, but if you want even more synergy, using an alkaline foam cleanser along with it is said to be more helpful in removing blackheads.

It reminded me of the treatments I used to get at the dermatologist's office, where they'd apply something to my nose and gently exfoliate. After using this, I just need to lightly swipe with a cotton swab, and you can actually see the yellow sebum that's been dissolved coming off on the swab!
ConsFor some reason, my eyes hurt after using this product. The first time it happened, I thought, 'Did I accidentally get some of the product in my eyes?' So the second time, I was extra careful, but it still hurt. I think it's best to apply it far away from the eye area to avoid any contact.
TipFor best results, use this after showering when your pores are open. While cotton swabs work well, if you want even more dramatic results, try combining the Extra Super 9 with an exfoliating tool. That's how they do it at the dermatologist's office!
