We at Beauty Insider honestly review the 11 best Medicube products available in Singapore to see how good they really are!

Let’s Get To Know Medicube

Founded in South Korea, Medicube has become a household name in the beauty industry for creating products that only chooses to impress. From the innovative formulas that make them not only effective but also high performing. Their goal is to develop skincare products for sensitive and severe skin concerns. They develop these wonder products through cutting-edge technology and specific ingredients known to treat the skin.

1. Medicube Red Erasing Cream

Heal stubborn red marks that acne leaves behind with the Medicube Red Erasing Cream! This moisture barrier cream soothes irritation and redness while repairing skin to make the complexion smooth and silky. It contains zinc oxide, perfect for mild irritation without being abrasive. You can use this product by applying a thin layer all over your skin or on the troubled areas.

Here are some of the things we love about the Medicube Red Erasing Cream

• Visibly lightens dark spots
• Colour corrects skin
• Leaves skin feeling moisturised and hydrated

However, this product has one downside. The erasing cream has a chalky, rough texture to it and leaves a white cast on skin. For a visual, check out this Medicube review here!

Overall, this product is worth a try for those looking to get rid of hyperpigmentation. Definitely repurchasing the Medicube Red Erasing Cream!

2. Medicube Red Body Bar

The Medicube Red Body Bar removes all skin waste while balancing oil production on the neck, shoulders, back and chest. This bar soap is packed with botanical oils to soothe redness and irritation, making this soap the best choice for people with sensitive skin.

This product is on the top of our list for these reasons:

• Foams up easily with a few swipes
• Does not dry out the skin
• Clears up stubborn acne and acne scars

Although this product has received glowing reviews, there are also a few reviews that claim the product does not work on them. We would recommend this product for those struggling with bacne. The Medicube Red Body Bar is without a doubt Beauty Insider approved.

3. Medicube Red Foam Cleanser

The Medicube Red Foam Cleanser claims to deeply cleanse blemish-prone skin by cleaning out pores and controlling sebum production. This non-irritant cleanser is infused with salicylic acid, which helps dissolve dirt that causes clogged pores and acne, making this the perfect product for getting rid of blackheads and whiteheads.

We love this product because:

• It works in clearing out excess sebum and oil
• It works great for sensitive skin
• There are fewer clogged pores after using this product for a while

However, the biggest drawback of this cleanser is that it is a little too drying on the skin. It also causes the skin to feel a little too tight after wash, making us feel like the moisture in the skin has been stripped away.

In conclusion, we would not recommend this product for people with dry skin. However, this product is still worth a shot for people with combination to oily skin who are looking for a deep, soothing cleanse.

Price: $21.60

4. Medicube Pore Brush

For a deeper cleanse, use the Medicube Pore Brush alongside the foam cleanser. This pore brush comes in two sides, one with microfine bristles and silicone jelly to ensure that all impurities are effectively cleansed. The built-in microfine bristles on the brush remove any pore-clogging dirt gently without pulling or tugging the skin surface. The silicone jelly side of the brush removes dead skin cells to brighten up dull skin.

Here are some things we love about the product:

• Gentle on skin
• Does not leave any dry patches after use
• Minimises large pores

We absolutely love this product as the product does truly work in removing any impurities, preventing any more breakout triggers and leaves skin feeling much smoother. This product is great for people with sensitive skin and it definitely has a place in the top of our list.

5. Medicube Red Toner

This clinically-tested toner helps to control sebum and exfoliate the skin after cleansing, regulating the skin cells for radiant skin. The toner is packed with beta-glucan, glycerin to replenish your skin’s moisture, leaving skin feeling hydrated and soft.

This product has made our list for these reasons:

• Does not leave skin feeling sticky after application
• Has a lightweight, watery texture on skin
• Very hydrating

The only snag we have with this product is with its thick gel consistency, it is a little difficult for the product to come out of the bottle. In all, this product does not fall short on its claims and it is definitely on the list of our must-buys making it one of our favourite Medicube products to review.

6. Medicube Red Cushion

The Medicube Red Cushion has become a cult favourite for its flawless coverage. Unlike other foundation cushions, this hypoallergenic-tested foundation cushion heals and conceals troubled skin. The foundation cushion is infused with calamine extract and Centella Asiatica which soothes redness and protects the skin from blemishes, making this the perfect foundation for acne-prone skin.

• Full coverage, acne and pores are almost unnoticeable
• Feels weightless on skin
• Glossy finish for a more natural look

On the flip side, the thing we do not love about this product is that the foundation cushion only comes in two shades (Light Beige and Natural Beige). Honestly, everything else we are absolutely in love with! Tati herself has given this her stamp of approval!

Price: $34.40

7. Medicube Zero Pore Pad Review

The Medicube Zero Pore Pad is a gentle exfoliator that helps minimises large pores by removing dead skin cells and tightening pores. The pads are packed with AHA and BHA, which combats large pores, uneven skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation scar for soft and bouncy skin. In order to use this product, wipe your face gently using the embossed side of the pad in an outward motion. Then, repeat this action using the softer side of the pad.

We loved reviewing this Medicube product for these reasons:

• Leaves skin feeling smooth and moisturised
• Lesser dry patches after use
• Brightens skin complexion

However, we are not the biggest fans of the slightly medicinal scent that comes with the pads. We also recommend waiting at least a month or two to see visible results. Want to see what the product can do? Watch this Medicube review here!

Overall, we would recommend the Medicube Zero Pore Pad as we find it the perfect tool for gentle yet effective exfoliation to keep breakouts at bay.

8. Medicube Centella Scar Ointment

Get glowing skin with the Medicube Centella Scar Ointment. This scar healing ointment in getting rid of hyperpigmentation scars and repairing skin damage for clear and bouncy skin. This product is rich in the Centella Asiatica herb, which has been proven time and time again to heal wounds.

We are huge fans of this product as:

• It has a mild yet amazing floral scent
• Does not leave skin feeling sticky or oily after application
• Only requires a little bit of product for full effectiveness

This product does wonders for acne scars and does its job of repairing damaged skin. However, it may take some time to notice the scars fading away. Other than that, we do not have any jarring problems with this product and loved out Medicube review on it!

Price: $24.80

9. Medicube Red Cream

The Medicube Red Cream is the perfect tool for skin rejuvenation and reducing large pores while keeping skin hydrated. This moisturising cream is rich in tea tree leaf oil, which is highly effective in relieving troubled skin and controlling sebum production, perfect for that Korean ‘glass skin’.

Here are some of the reasons that we are loving this product

• Leaves skin feeling smooth
• Soothes any redness and dry patches
• Does not feel greasy or oily

However, we are not fans of the thick consistency of the product as it feels heavy on the skin. Despite this, this product does its job of preventing breakouts and we highly recommend the Medicube Red Cream as it is effective and suitable for any skin type.

Price: $52

10. Medicube Zero Pore Serum

The Medicube Zero Pore Serum is a pore-tightening serum that tackles large pores and reduces blackheads and whiteheads. Infused with patented camellia flower extract that helps tighten loose pores, this lightweight serum reduces sebum production and balances skin moisture.

Here are some things we love about this product:

• Very moisturising and hydrating
• Leaves skin feeling smooth and soft
• Feels lightweight on skin

Although there are some things we love about the product, this product did not live up to its name of being a pore-tightening serum. Even after weeks of use, the difference to pores is very minimal and almost unnoticeable. Looks like we are not repurchasing this product again.

Price: $39.20

11. Medicube Red Centellaca Mask

The Medicube Red Centellaca Mask rounds off your skincare routine. This mask is filled with 10 different plant extracts with antioxidant properties to help brighten dull skin and reduce inflammation. The mask comes with a small pack of the foam cleanser and pimple care toner for a quick all-in-one skincare routine.

This is why we we agree with the many glowing reviews of this product:

• The thin mask feels weightless on skin
• Watery-like texture leaves skin feeling much smoother
• Very hydrating and brightens complexion

Although this mask takes the cake for being an all-in-one skincare routine, the only problem we have with this is that mask does not prevent acne breakouts. However, it does its job to calm redness. This mask will definitely be on our list of to-buys again.

Price: $25.90 (5 sheets)
