Hey! So you know how we’re always talking about pore care? I’ve been watching this medicube pad fly off the shelves, and it’s not even the full-size version β it’s the refill pack! Let me tell you why everyone’s restocking on these.
medicube Zero Pore Pad 2.0 70P Refill Set
β¨ Best for: Oily, combination skin with visible pores
β± Longevity: 2-3 months with daily use
π Repurchase rate: High
Why Koreans Love This
The fact that this is a refill pack says everything, right? People loved the original container so much they just keep buying refills instead of switching brands. It’s basically become part of their permanent skincare lineup.
These double-sided pads have this genius design β one side exfoliates with little bumps, and the smooth side calms things down. Korean skincare lovers are big on that “one product, two steps” efficiency thing, and this nails it.
What’s really interesting is how many people use these right after cleansing as their toner step. It’s replacing like 2-3 products in their routine, which explains why 70 pads don’t last as long as you’d think! π
What Real Buyers Are Saying
“I’ve been using this for 3 months now and my sebaceous filaments are significantly reduced. The pads are super soaked in essence and one pad is enough for face and neck.” β verified buyer
“Love that it’s a refill! Reduces waste and saves money. The texture side really helps with my nose pores without being too harsh. I use it every morning after cleansing.” β verified buyer
“These work better than expensive pore strips for me. The pads don’t dry out even after opening for weeks. Might be too strong if you have sensitive skin though.” β verified buyer

π Mina’s Ingredient Note
I actually checked the formulation on this one β it uses both LHA and PHA along with niacinamide, which is honestly a smart combo for pore care. LHA works on the surface level without going too deep (gentler than BHA for daily use), while niacinamide helps regulate sebum production over time. Worth checking if you’re already using other acids in your routine though β layering too many exfoliants can mess with your barrier even if each product feels gentle on its own.

Who Should (and Shouldn’t) Buy This
π Is This For You?
β You’re already a fan of the original and want to save on packaging (and money!)
β Your pores are visible and you deal with sebaceous filaments or blackheads regularly
β You prefer quick, multi-step products that replace toner + light exfoliation
β Skip if you have sensitive or dry skin β the exfoliating side might be too much
β If you don’t own the original container, just get the full set first (this is literally just refill pads)
