That unique cool, minty fragrance gave a real cooling effect when applied. It felt refreshing on the skin too. I didn't realize it was a cleansing balm when I bought it, which led to some struggles, but that's on me! The stick has these little granules inside which I really liked. After applying the balm and washing my face, it felt like my skin was getting extra clean. I was also quite satisfied with the cap that keeps the stick from drying out. As someone with somewhat sensitive skin, I was especially pleased that this product didn't cause any tingling or irritation.
ConsDrawbacks: - It melts too easily If there's even a bit of water on your skin, it melts too quickly, making it tricky to use cleanly. I usually wipe off the melted parts on dry areas after applying it to my skin. Alternatively, you can slightly dampen your face, let it dry a bit, and then use the product for a cleaner application. - The amount is small Personally, I felt the quantity was lacking. Given that the formula melts quickly with water, it seems to run out faster with each use. - The effects aren't particularly strong It does work, but the effects aren't intense. It feels more like a supporting player rather than the star of the show. When I used this product alone followed by a cleansing oil, I hardly saw any results. However, when I used it after showering or using a steam towel, and then followed with a cleansing oil, the effects were about 1.5 times better than not using it at all. (I use the Witch's Pouch cleansing oil) While I like it overall, it's not a product I'd feel compelled to repurchase.
TipFor better results, try using this product after showering or using a steam towel!

User Experience: - As expected from the mint scent, it has quite a cooling effect! Feels refreshing after application, which is great. - The stick format makes it easy to apply on larger areas with quick swipes. - I noticed improved skin texture the next day.
Cons- The downside of the stick format is that while it's fine for larger areas, it's really difficult to apply on smaller areas like around the nose. I ended up scooping some out to apply it. - Because it's in stick form, the part that touches the skin can get wet, which felt a bit unsanitary. I had to wipe it clean before use, which made it more cumbersome. - The most disappointing aspect was that after using it for a week (though I'll need to use it longer to be sure), while my skin texture seemed to improve, my blackheads remained almost unchanged.
Tip- Since it's solid and not liquid, there's no worry about spills, making it great for travel.

My main concerns are pores and excess oil. I chose this product because I heard it's easier to use compared to Medipeel's liquid products, and the reviews were great. 📍 It's incredibly convenient to use. Being a stick format, you just pop the cap off and glide it on - done! 📍 As a mint chocolate lover, I adored the scent. That minty fragrance... made me want to take a bite! 📍 It has a nice cooling effect. 📍 It works hard at removing excess oil.
Cons📍 The quantity is a bit disappointing for the price... It won't last very long. 📍 I'm not sure about its effectiveness in minimizing pores.
TipI found it perfect to apply before showering and then wash my face after!

Scent: The mint fragrance is amazing. Results: While I'm not sure about the chin area, (in my experience) just one use cleared out the sebum from my nose.
ConsThe cooling sensation might be too intense for those with sensitive skin, potentially causing some discomfort. It foams up quite a bit, which momentarily made me think I was washing with soap. If you're not a fan of foaming products, you might find it a bit uncomfortable.

It has a cooling effect that feels refreshing. But most importantly, the results are amazing! While it didn't make my blackheads disappear overnight, it's been the most effective product I've tried for blackheads and pores. It also exfoliates well, leaving my skin smooth after use. The improvement was so noticeable that even my sister decided to buy it for herself.
ConsThose with dry skin might find it a bit drying. I have dry skin myself and felt some dryness, but applying a moisturizer right after cleansing helped counteract that.

I tried it after showering when my face was a bit puffy, and since I have some sensitive areas, I only applied it to my nose, philtrum, and chin where I have whiteheads. Despite the strong tea tree scent, it didn't cause any tingling or irritation. After gently massaging it and rinsing with water, my skin felt soft and smooth. I don't usually have blackheads, but the whiteheads on my chin disappeared completely. Since my chin whiteheads were quite severe, I felt a noticeable improvement!
ConsThe tea tree scent is stronger than expected, so those who don't like herbal fragrances might be taken aback. There are small granules embedded in the stick, and I was concerned they might cause irritation when rubbing it on the skin.
TipIt seems to work even better if you rinse the oily areas several times with warm water before using the product.

It's a product that works as a scrub and clay mask - you can massage it in and leave it to dry for a bit. ✔️Scent It has a refreshing mint fragrance, which I really enjoyed. Since it's used around the nose area, the scent is important, and I'm quite pleased with it. ✔️Feel on skin Due to the particles, it's not overly smooth, but it helps refine skin texture just right. I didn't experience any tingling or irritation, and it didn't cause any blemishes. ✔️Effectiveness I usually apply it by gently rubbing the stick on my face, then shower or brush my teeth, followed by a final massage with my fingers before rinsing. While it doesn't completely extract deep-seated sebum, it does clear out surface oils. You can see how smooth your skin becomes afterwards. I prefer to stop here to avoid stronger exfoliation, but if you use the product, you can see the sebum coming to the surface. At this point, applying a bit more pressure to wipe or squeeze could potentially result in even cleaner skin.
ConsThe soft texture makes me think it might run out quickly. I wish it came in a larger size.

It's easy to apply on the face and absorbs well. It dissolves nicely in water, making it a breeze to wash off. When applied, it feels like a cooling patch with a minty scent, which seems to instantly minimize pores. I think it's been effective on blackheads! It's great for exfoliating dead skin cells. Whiteheads might take a bit more time to see results. It seems to have all the features you'd expect from a pore pack. The ease of use is a huge plus. If you're in the market for a pore pack, this one's worth considering.
ConsAfter rinsing, my face feels extremely clean - almost too clean. Whether you wash it off before or after it dries, the result is the same squeaky-clean feeling. Even after following up with a cleansing foam, my skin still feels overly cleansed. I'm not sure if that's a good thing... The granules in the product seem to be a bit irritating to the skin.
TipMake sure to apply a hydrating product right after use. When applying, roll the product on, then use your hands to massage it in further.

I've been using it every morning and night, and it definitely keeps oil under control. As someone with oily skin, I'm really satisfied. There's a slight scent, but it's not an added fragrance and doesn't linger after washing, so it's fine. The mud contains something like fine granules that provide a scrubbing effect. When I use it on damp skin, roll it a few times, rub with my hands, and rinse off, my skin feels refreshingly clean.
ConsThe product is quite soft, so it gets used up quickly. A toothpaste-like squeeze tube might work better. I was hoping for something as convenient but powerful as a sebum softener, but it seems more like an oil-controlling scrub. That said, I'm satisfied using it as a simple daily product in its own right.
TipAfter using the Medi-Peel sebum softener and following up with this during every cleanse, I've noticed my blackheads form much more slowly.

The experience reminds me of the packs used at dermatology clinics or spas to soften sebum - similar scent and effects. When I applied the product to my skin, it had that distinct citrusy, refreshing sensation. As someone with oily skin, I was surprised by how effectively it removed excess sebum. I typically use it like a mask during my shower routine. After cleansing, I apply the product, wait a bit, then rinse it off. Compared to other products like cleansing oils that require more effort to remove sebum, this one is relatively convenient, making me reach for it more often.
ConsThe product itself is too soft... It lacks that rich texture and applies very thinly, so it gets used up quickly. Also, being in stick form makes it difficult to apply to curved areas like around the nose. I find myself reapplying often, which means it won't last long.
