COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid 100ml
COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid - 100ml
Resurface, brighten, and clarify your skin with the COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid. Formulated with 7% Glycolic Acid - one of the most effective and well-researched AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) - this leave-on exfoliating liquid works on the skin's surface to dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing the fresher, brighter, and smoother skin underneath.
Whiteheads form when dead skin cells and sebum become trapped beneath a thin layer of skin, creating a closed comedone. AHAs like glycolic acid address this by accelerating cell turnover - sloughing away the buildup that clogs pores and contributes to whiteheads, uneven texture, and a dull, lacklustre complexion. With consistent use, the skin becomes visibly clearer, more even-toned, and radiantly smooth.
Enriched with Niacinamide and Panthenol, this formula goes beyond exfoliation - actively soothing and conditioning the skin to minimise the potential irritation that can accompany acid use. The result is a well-tolerated, effective treatment that delivers real results without compromising the skin's comfort or barrier integrity.
The lightweight, watery texture applies easily with a cotton pad and absorbs quickly, making it a seamless addition to any evening routine. Over time, regular use helps to fade post-blemish marks, smooth rough or bumpy skin texture, and create a consistently brighter, more luminous complexion.
For skin that glows from within, the COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid is your go-to surface exfoliant - gentle enough for regular use, powerful enough to transform your skin.
Key Benefits
- 7% Glycolic Acid accelerates cell turnover to dissolve whiteheads and surface congestion
- Visibly brightens skin tone and fades post-blemish marks and hyperpigmentation

How to Use
Use in the evening after cleansing and toning. Apply a small amount to a cotton pad and gently sweep over the face, avoiding the eye area. Do not rinse. Follow with the rest of your evening skincare routine. Begin with 2-3 times per week and increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Always apply broad-spectrum SPF the following morning, as AHAs increase photosensitivity.
Suitable Skin Types
Normal, combination, and oily skin. Suitable for those targeting whiteheads, uneven texture, dullness, and post-blemish marks. Use with caution on sensitive or dry skin - patch test and start slowly.
