Product guide: which medicube product to choose for your concern?

For facial blemishes and acne

The medicube SOS Invisible Patch is your number-one ally for discreet emergency care. Ultra-thin and transparent, it adheres perfectly to the skin and remains invisible even under makeup. Its soothing, low-irritation formula is suitable for sensitive skin and protects pimples from external impurities to promote faster healing.

For purifying and brightening the complexion

The medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Purifying Gel Cleanser (500 ml) is a gel-to-foam cleanser formulated with kojic acid and turmeric. It targets excess sebum and dark spots right from the cleansing step, while maintaining skin hydration. With daily use, it refines texture, evens out the complexion, and reveals visibly brighter skin.

For deep makeup removal

The medicube PDRN Mild Cleansing Oil (195 ml) is an innovative makeup-removing oil featuring liposomal PDRN. Its ultra-fine oil particles—about 1/3 the size of standard oils—penetrate pores effectively to dissolve makeup, sebum, and impurities. Its lightweight texture rinses off easily without residue, leaving skin clean, hydrated, and fresh.

For daily sun protection

The medicube PDRN Silky Sunscreen Stick SPF50+ (20 g) is a silky sun stick with PDRN for lightweight protection and an even complexion. Its rounded shape contours to the face for hygienic and precise application, without stickiness or shine. Ideal for touch-ups on the go, even over makeup.

For body acne

The medicube Red Acne Body Wash 3.0 (400 ml) is a functional anti-acne body wash formulated with 5% niacinamide and the patented Dermatic AC3. Tested to be 99% antibacterial against C. acnes, it eliminates sebum and dead cells, soothes redness, and refines the texture of the back and chest. Its 7 Forest + 4 Phyto-Green + 2 Mint complex leaves a lasting sensation of freshness and cleanliness.
