Dr. Melaxin Cactox 3-Step Nose Pore Cleansing Mask is a Korean set designed for the nose and pores, created to give the skin complete care that combines softening accumulated sebum, removing impurities and blackheads, purifying pores, and tightening their appearance within a practical three-step routine. The set is based on an effective blend of Cactox Elixir, AHA, PHA, BHA, Zinc PCA, low-molecular collagen, and peptide complex to support skin that suffers from clogged pores, blackheads, hardened sebum, or rough nose texture.

The set works gradually, starting with the hardened sebum softening step to make pore cleansing easier, followed by a step designed to help lift impurities and accumulated sebum from the surface of the nose, and ending with a soothing and pore-tightening appearance step to help the nose area look smoother, clearer, and more refined. The moisturizing and soothing ingredients also help reduce the feeling of dryness and discomfort after cleansing.

Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• For the best result, the Beauty Time team recommends using the set on completely clean skin, focusing only on the nose area for targeted pore care.
• It is preferable to use light steam or a warm towel on the nose before starting if the blackheads are stubborn, to help soften sebum and prepare the pores.
• Do not scrub the nose harshly after removing Step 2; gentle removal helps reduce skin irritation.
• After finishing Step 3, use a lightweight moisturizer to help soothe the skin and lock in hydration.
• For oily or combination skin, it can be used once weekly depending on pore needs and sebum amount.
• For sensitive or dry skin, it is preferable to use it at wider intervals, with a patch test first and monitoring the skin’s response.
• Avoid using strong exfoliants or additional acids on the same day to reduce the possibility of dryness or discomfort.
• Do not use it on areas that are irritated, cracked, or have inflamed pimples to avoid increasing sensitivity.
• To maintain the appearance of clear pores, include it in a balanced routine that contains gentle cleansing, suitable moisturizing, and sunscreen in the morning.
• Continuing to cleanse the nose gently without overdoing it helps achieve a more clear, smooth, and balanced appearance over time.
