COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser

COSRX Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser is a creamy, low-lather foam cleanser positioned as a daily blemish-fighting wash that purifies without stripping — ideal for oily, acne-prone, and combination skin.

Gentle enough for both AM & PM use, it works as the first step of your skincare routine to remove excess oil, impurities, and daily buildup before toning and treatment steps.

At its core, 0.5% Salicylic Acid (BHA) penetrates deep into pores to dissolve sebum and dead skin buildup. Willow Bark Water (Salix Alba) complements this with mild exfoliating and anti-inflammatory properties, while Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia) delivers antibacterial action directly targeting acne-causing bacteria. Glycerin and Butylene Glycol replenish moisture throughout the cleanse, and coconut-derived Cocamidopropyl Betaine produces a soft, non-irritating lather that leaves skin feeling smooth rather than tight.

• Unclogs pores and reduces blackheads by dissolving excess sebum and dead skin cells with oil-soluble BHA.
• Controls breakouts and calms active blemishes through the combined antibacterial action of Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid.
• Maintains skin moisture balance post-cleanse, leaving a soft, supple finish without dryness or the classic “squeaky clean” tightness.
• Suitable for daily use on sensitive and blemish-prone skin — free from harsh sulfates and formulated to minimize irritation.

How to Use: Dispense a small amount onto wet palms and work into a lather by adding a little warm water. Apply the foam to your face using gentle circular motions, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Use morning and evening as the first step of your routine, followed by toner and treatments.
