Dr Song Korean Skin Care - Glycolic Acid Face Wash - Exfoliating Face Wash with 10% Glycolic Acid, AHA for Anti Aging, Acne and Wrinkles Korean Beauty

Arrived early. As for the result, it’s too early to tell but, with no adverse effect, it’s so far so good.

This product is gentle and you will see immediate results. I use it every day just about and it is not harsh on your skin.

I have oily skin and am addicted to anything that helps it feel smooth. I decided to try this because using more glycolic acid can't possibly hurt, right? LOL. This facial cleanser is perfect for helping achieve that.The cleanser comes in a small 4oz pump bottle. It's not very much, but you don't need much for your skin either. It's a gel and the consistency is watery. It has a pleasant citrus scent. By itself, I can't see this cleaning anyone's skin of oil, makeup, or dirt.As I mentioned before, my skin is oily. To maximize the potential of this cleanser, I wash with a hypoallergenic cleanser first. That way my skin is oil free and ready for this cleanser. Then I rub this one into my skin for about a minute, then use a facial spin brush with a silicone brush attachment for another 1-2 minutes.The spin brush is important because it helps massage the cleanser into the pores and helps the skin absorb the glycolic acid better. I do this with the prewash too. The result is a warming sensation when I first rub this cleanser into my skin. This is how you know it's working. I do this 1-2x a week.The result is the softest skin you've ever had. It is drying, even for oily skin, so if you have dry skin already, you'll definitely want to use a moisturizer afterwards. For me, hyaluronic acid is enough to add moisture back.Now let's talk about what this doesn't do. It's not going to peel your skin. It's not going to reduce lines or wrinkles. It may or may not shrink your pores depending on how big they are to begin with. It's not the best choice for acne either.So why use it then? Because of all the chemical exfoliation products I've tried, this one is the best. It will definitely aid in keeping your pores clean. It does prompt skin renewal. It helps even out skin texture. It's good stuff. Just don't expect it to work miracles.

I love this for a super clean feeling skin when it goes on sale. The bottle may be smaller than it used to be? Definitely is great though I have sensitive skin and doesn’t have a scent and doesn’t seem overly drawing. It’s really great with exfoliating and showing my brightest fresh skin when coupled with a at home glycolic peel.

I purchased both Dr. Song's facial and body wash due to cystic acne. I've only had the washes for about 2 days, but I must say that I have noticed that I have not been breaking out on my arms, chest, or back, and the facial wash has reduced the roughness of my skin. I have Rosacea as well, so I have to be very careful what washes I use on my skin, and it outperforms any other wash that claims to be friendly for sensitive skin. I have tried so many different types of body washes, but every time I tried something new, I would get a new crop of pimples on my upper arms and all over my back. I have noticed that not only have I not had new pimples, but it has actually reduced the acne that was already there. With other facial washes, I have noticed that it strips my natural moisture from my skin and my face would overcompensate and be excessively oily by the end of the day, but not with this facial wash. I am pleasantly surprised and hope to see continued improvement.My only constructive feedback would be the bottle packaging- I have had so much trouble trying to get both pumps to work. Thinking it was something I was doing, I had my boyfriend try to twist the pump head on both of the bottles so that it will spring up and allow me to start pumping, but to no avail. I adapted by twisting off the entire lid and pouring the amount I need in the palm of my hands, but it's nice to have that pump head to give you an exact amount every time.

This is the second glycolic acid face wash I’ve tried and I’m loving this one so far. I’ve used it a few times (as you shouldn’t be using glycolic acid on your face everyday, it could lead to over exfoliating) since I’ve received it and I’ve loved the after results every time. I have oily skin with pretty large/visible pores and I deal with texture. After using this, I follow up with a hydrating toner I made with glycerin, water and Neem, and then I moisturize. My skin feels extremely soft right after I finish moisturizing and even softer the next morning! And it’s visibly reduced my pores each time. Your face might feel slightly dry after using it (not unusual, glycolic acid can be drying so if you have oily skin it’s usually fine to use 2-3x a week but if you have dry skin, I’d stick to once-twice) so it’s important to moisturize! Also wear SPF of 30 or better if you use this in the morning as glycolic acid can increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun.Update: Just want to give another update after having used this for a few weeks now. I. Am. In. Love! I’ve never had a single product become a “staple” in my routine, but this will definitely be. I stated in my first update that I only used it a few times over days, and I’ve since upped my usage to once every night. My pores have never been so visibly smaller from any product ever. Even my mom commented that my skin is looking better and even though I changed my entire routine, I know for sure it’s this face wash that’s making the difference. My skin is currently purging (which you have a high chance of experiencing anytime you introduce an active ingredient into your routine because it’s increasing cell turnover much faster), but the overall texture (I always had those little almost non-visible bumps on my cheek/jaw area) and complexion is getting visibly smoother and brighter. I’ve included pictures and my skin is purging a lot right now on my forehead (where I usually break out, and you’ll purge the most where you usually break out) because of the upped usage. It should be over within the next 2-3 weeks and I can’t wait to see my skin after I’m done purging! I’ll do another update when it does. Dr. Song, please don’t ever stop selling this!
