'Noticeably reduced the size of my pores': These de-gunking pads are over 50% off

'Noticeably reduced the size of my pores': These de-gunking pads are over 50% off

Yahoo23-02-2025
For smoother skin and smaller-looking pores, cleanliness is key. We're not saying you're dirty, but sebum, dirt and oil can sneakily make their way into pores, clogging them up and making skin look uneven, dull and congested. The fix? Facial toners, like the Medicube Zero Pore Pads, use a revitalizing combo of ingredients (like lactic acid and salicylic acid) to keep skin looking fresh. Currently, these No. 1 bestselling pore pads are a whopping 51% off — meaning you can snag a pack of 70 for just $15.
According to our price trackers, at $15 (down from $31) this is only $2 more than the all-time lowest price we've seen these de-gunking pore pads priced. 51% off is a pretty stellar saving, especially for a No. 1 bestseller like this, but this is a limited-time deal, so we suggest snapping it up for yourself before the price climbs back up.
Facial toners like the Medicube Zero Pore Pads help alleviate oil and sebum buildup on the skin — with every swipe of a pad, excess gunk and grime are cleared out of pores. While pore size is genetic, and you can't actually shrink them, clearing them of impurities makes them appear tighter and smaller. Regular use of these exfoliating wonders can reduce buildup in pores, deter blackhead growth and help skin look smoother and more balanced overall.
These skin-purifying wipes contain ingredients like .45% white willow bark (salicylic acid BHA), 4.5% fruit complex (lactic acid AHA) and cypress tree leaf and skullcap, which work together to unclog and minimize the appearance of pores, naturally exfoliate skin and gradually decrease the amount of sebum production by reducing the swelling of sebum glands. In a clinical study of users with varying skin types, 100% of subjects saw a significant improvement in the appearance of their pores and a reduction of blackheads within two weeks of using the product. Plus, every pack of this Korean skin care favorite contains 70 pads, which should be plenty to get you through at least a couple of months of daily use.
Over 2,000 Amazon shoppers have given the Medicube Zero Pore Pads a five-star rating. Hundreds of these enthusiastic reviews have specifically praised the pads' for minimizing the appearance of pores, leaving behind radiant, clear skin.
"Magic in a tub," proclaimed one devotee. "I have combination skin, and very noticeable pores on my nose. Although the pores on my nose have not completely gone away (which I wasn't expecting), they have minimized, and my skin overall looks more radiant and smooth. I love that these pads are so moisturizing. I normally have reactions and burning to acids, but this is gentle and leaves my skin feeling plump and moisturized."
"I only started using the Zero Pore Pads a couple of weeks ago but I already noticed a significant improvement in my pores and skin's texture," shared another reviewer. "The pores on my cheeks were quite large, but now they are almost unnoticeable. The pad always leaves my skin feeling refreshed and clean and contributes to a smoother complexion without irritation."
A final fan raved about how the pads cleansed their skin without ravaging it of its essential oils. "I've struggled with enlarged pores and uneven skin texture for a while, but these pore pads have been a game-changer for me!" they raved. "What impresses me the most is how they've noticeably reduced the size of my pores without drying out or irritating my skin. ... They contain ingredients that gently exfoliate and refine the skin's texture, making it smoother and more even-toned. After using them regularly, I've noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my pores — they look visibly smaller and less noticeable. ... They leave my skin feeling clean, balanced and refreshed after each use."
"The product seems to work overall but it does dry slightly sticky," observed one user.
Another shopper noted that if your skin is particularly sensitive, these pads may cause some irritation. "When I used these, they did make my skin tingle and I turned pink. After using them a couple of days in a row my skin was slightly irritated and was turning even more pink and staying that way for about 20 minutes after using them and then applying moisturizer. I started using them about three nights a week and still experienced mild tingling and pinkness but it was much less than when I used them every single night. ... If you have very sensitive skin like mine, this formula may not be the best, especially if you want to use it every single day."
If sun damage and dark spots got you down, give these vitamin C wipes a whirl. They're currently 53% off.

The Best Korean Toner Pads Brighten and Smooth in a Single Swipe

We get it: You're hesitant about adding another step to your already-stacked skin-care routine, but if it's glass skin you're after, you're well-suited for Korean toner pads. For the uninitiated, 'toners serve as both a treatment and a way to prep your skin for further products in your multistep skin-care routine,' founder of Soko Glam, Charlotte Cho previously told Vogue. Vogue's Favorite Korean Toner Pads An easily misunderstood step, per Cho, the benefit of opting for a toner pad format is its sheer convenience. While liquid formulas require a separate cotton round (often absorbing more product than your skin does), toner pads come pre-soaked and ready to use—no extra tools required. Housed in sleek jars, often with their own mini tweezers for hygienic retrieval, these pads deliver the perfect dose of product with every swipe. From excess oil and irritation to dull skin and anti-aging, Korean toner pads reflect K-beauty's signature balance of skin-first tradition and cutting-edge innovation. Whether you're after a quick refresh post-cleansing or a targeted 15-minute masking moment (yes, some formulas can double as mini sheet masks), toner pads offer a tailored approach to treating skin. Below, a look at eight formulas to consider, recommended by Vogue editors and the pros. In This Story Best for Blackheads: Medicube Zero Pore Pads

8 Best Pore Strips for a Congestion-Free T-Zone

When it comes to quick fixes for clogged pores, the best pore strips have long held a beloved spot in skin-care routines worldwide. There's something undeniably satisfying about peeling away a strip and seeing the visible evidence of impurities (think: blackheads and sebaceous filaments) lifted from your skin. Beyond their instant gratification, pore strips provide an effective way to deep-clean areas prone to blackheads, such as the nose, chin, and forehead. They act like a magnet, drawing out excess oil and debris that can clog pores and lead to breakouts. In the age of TikTok skin-care experts, pore strips have gotten a bad rep—but you don't have to toss away the category as a whole. 'Using pore strips occasionally isn't harmful, but frequent use can sometimes irritate the skin,' says board certified dermatologist Dr. Dara Spearman. Plus, the pore strips of 2025 are a far cry from their Y2K predecessors, which tore off skin with a vengeance—evolution in the category has led to gentler hydrocolloid and biocellulose patches that equally, if not more effective. Meanwhile, K-beauty alternatives offer sebum-melting oils and treatments that ditch adhesive patches altogether. Dr. Spearman adds, 'While traditional strips provide quick results, K-beauty techniques offer a gentler, long-term way to care for your pores. It really comes down to what works best for your skin.'

Pura Scents recalling more than 850,000 diffusers as magnet issue may cause ingestion hazard

Pura Scents is recalling more than 850,000 diffusers because some magnets may detach and cause a possible ingestion hazard to children. The company is recalling about 851,400 Pura 4 Smart Home Fragrance Diffusers with detachable covers. It said an additional 1,100 were sold in Canada. Pura Scents said that the magnets on the inside cover of the product can detach, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death. The company has received three reports of magnets detaching from the cover. No injuries have been reported. The diffusers were sold at Target, Scheels and other stores nationwide from August 2023 through May 2025 for about $50. They were also sold online through Pura's website, as well as online at Amazon, Target and Scheels. Pura Scents is offering a free replacement cover. Consumers are advised to immediately dispose of the existing detachable cover and to keep the diffusers out of the reach of children and pets. To receive the free replacement cover, individuals may contact Pura Scents at 855-394-5292 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. MT Monday through Friday. The company can also be emailed at [email protected]. Consumers may also visit the company's website and click on 'Recall' at the bottom of the page for more information.
