The Medicube Zero Pore Pad 2.0 has taken over TikTok and skincare blogs alike. From New York to Singapore, users are swiping their way to smaller-looking pores, smoother skin, and fewer blackheads. In this two-part review, we’re breaking down everything about these dual-textured exfoliating pads, their real-world benefits, and how both the Ubuy.ie and Amazon.ie versions compare.
Unclogs pores and prevents breakouts
Gently exfoliates with lactic acid and salicylic acid
Improves skin texture and tone
Controls excess sebum with patented Anti-Sebum P
Free from artificial fragrance, parabens, and sulfates
May feel sticky for some users, especially if overused
Can cause dryness or irritation on sensitive skin types
Not a miracle cure, pore size is mostly genetic
Fragrance is minimal but detectable
The Quality Edit:
Reported smoother skin and fewer blackheads after just 2 weeks. Recommended targeting congested areas only, and limiting to twice weekly use to prevent over-exfoliation.

Praised for convenience and hygiene, especially for oily and acne-prone skin. Best used at night followed by a good moisturizer.
New York Post & Who What Wear:
Called it a “pore-blurring essential” with strong endorsements from influencers and editors alike.
