Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Pad

Description

What Is the Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Pad?

This pre-soaked toner pad combines kojic acid and turmeric  both known for brightening and calming properties  with glycolic acid to gently exfoliate and refine texture. It’s designed to target dark spots, post-blemish marks, and uneven tone, while turmeric’s naturally yellow pigment also gives the pad its distinctive colour.

It’s suitable for use on both the face and body, and is positioned as a daily, swipe-and-go step rather than an occasional treatment.

Key Ingredients

The formula is built around three core actives:

• Kojic Acid — a brightening ingredient obtained through fermentation, used to help fade the look of dark spots and uneven pigmentation.
• Turmeric (Curcuma Longa Root Extract) — valued for its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties, helping to calm and protect the skin alongside its brightening effect.
• Glycolic Acid (AHA) — gently exfoliates to remove dead skin cells and refine the look of pores and texture.

The formula also includes niacinamide to support an even-looking tone, and allantoin to help keep the skin calm and comfortable.

How to Use

The pad can be used two ways, depending on the level of care needed:

1. Cleanse — start with a clean face.
2. Swipe — gently wipe the pad across the face along the skin’s texture, avoiding the eye area, as the first step after cleansing.
3. Or, target specific areas — for more focused care, place the pad on the area of concern for 3–5 minutes.
4. Follow up — allow the product to absorb; no need to rinse. Continue with the rest of your routine.

For enhanced brightening and soothing effects, it can be paired with Medicube’s Kojic Acid Turmeric Gel Mask or Wrapping Mask from the same line.

Who It’s For

Suitable for all skin types, and particularly well suited to:

• Dark spots, post-blemish marks, and uneven skin tone
• Dull or tired-looking skin wanting a brightening boost
• Anyone wanting gentle daily exfoliation alongside a brightening active
