Pore mask for combination skin, 2-week test: MEDIPICKME

What was the texture like when seasonal flakes were a concern?

I tried it when seasonal changes were making flakes stand out. When I first scooped some out, it had a thin, essence-like texture that did not run, so it was easy to spread across wider areas of the face.

Once it touched my skin, it felt as though it spread like water, and I did not find it especially sticky.

How did skin texture and marks feel after 2 weeks?

After cleansing, I applied it over my whole face after toner, then layered another coat over areas with blemish marks. After using it for about 2 weeks, I felt my skin tone looked a little clearer and lingering red marks looked less noticeable. It was not the kind of change where dark pigmentation vanished at once; rather, it was something I gradually noticed while looking in the mirror every day.

I also wrote that pores and rough skin texture that had been noticeable up close looked less prominent than before with consistent care.

How did I use it?

I scooped out an appropriate amount, spread it evenly over my face while avoiding the eye area and lips, let it dry for 10–20 minutes, and rinsed it off with lukewarm water. I wrote that gently rolling it while rinsing could help clear away unnecessary dead skin cells.

Did it feel irritating on combination skin?

The original post introduces it as containing AP-HA Complex, BHA, and LHA. I did not feel irritation while using it, and it felt as though my skin was being gently soothed.

My skin is dry but combination skin that tends to build up sebum in the T-zone, and I felt that shine around my nose in the morning had decreased compared with before.

I also tried it on my teenage child's face, which tends to break out easily, and wrote that it helped with care.

What changed with redness and makeup flaking?

It is introduced as a product containing Centella asiatica leaf water and tea tree leaf water. When I applied it to irritated cheeks, heated-up skin felt calmer, and I found that redness tended to settle relatively quickly too.

On nights when I spread on a thin layer before bed, my skin texture looked smoother the next day, and I felt that flaking and makeup pilling had decreased too.

What stood out most before and after use?

Before using it, I had days when flakes formed around my cheeks and jaw and rough texture made my makeup lift. My overall verdict is that, after use, redness, flakes, and pores that had looked prominent bothered me less, and my skin finish looked smoother.

• It had a hydrating, thin texture that did not run.
• After about 2 weeks of use, I felt that flakes and skin texture were more refined.
• I wrote that shine around the nose was less noticeable on combination skin.
