I Tried 13 Medicube Products; Here’s What Actually Works
If you’ve been anywhere near skincare TikTok lately, you’ve probably seen Medicube everywhere.
From pore-tightening toners to those viral skincare devices, the brand has built a reputation around clear, glass-like skin. But here’s the real question:
Is Medicube actually worth your money or just another overhyped trend?
We recently came across a full routine featuring 13 different Medicube products, and instead of just watching it for entertainment, we broke it down to see what’s actually working and what’s not.
Let’s get into it.

- Medicube Heartleaf 3D Heartleaf Cream
- Medicube Kojic Acid & Turmeric Pad
- Medicube Kojic Acid II Serum
- Medicube Pink Peptide Serum
- Medicube Face Gel
- Medicube PDRN Face Masks
- Medicube Capsule Cream
- Medicube PDRN Capsule Cream
- Medicube Kojic Acid & Turmeric Capsule Cream
- Medicube Pore Cleansing Mask
- Medicube Mud Mask
- Medicube Pore Brush
- Medicube Zero Pore Pad
First Impressions: Why Medicube Feels Different
One thing that stands out immediately is that Medicube doesn’t position itself like your typical beauty brand.
It leans heavily into:
- Clinical results
- Skin-focused solutions (especially pores & acne)
- Step-by-step routines
And honestly, that’s why it’s blowing up. People aren’t just buying products, they’re buying the promise of transformation.
The Routine Breakdown (What Was Used)
The full routine included a mix of:
- Cleansers
- Toners (especially pore-focused ones)
- Serums and ampoules
- Moisturizers
- Skincare devices
At first glance, it might seem like overkill. But this is where most people get it wrong:
👉 It’s not about using everything
👉 It’s about using the right combination for your skin
What Actually Worked (The Standouts)
After watching the transformation and analyzing the routine, a few things clearly stood out.
1. Pore-Focused Products
Medicube’s biggest strength is definitely its pore-care line.
You can literally see the difference in:
- Skin texture
- Oil control
- Overall smoothness
This is especially useful if you struggle with:
- Large pores
- Oily skin
- Uneven texture
2. Consistency Over Hype
One thing most people ignore is this:
It wasn’t just the products, it was the consistency.
The visible improvement didn’t happen overnight. It came from using the routine properly and consistently.
And that’s something no product can replace.
3. Layering Done Right
Instead of randomly applying products, the routine followed a clear structure:
- Cleanse
- Tone
- Treat (serum/ampoule)
- Moisturize
Simple, but effective.
What Felt Overhyped
Let’s be honest with ourselves, not everything lived up to the hype.
1. Using Too Many Products at Once
13 products sounds impressive, but for most people:
👉 It’s not necessary
👉 It can even irritate your skin
A simpler routine with 3–5 solid products would likely give similar results.
2. Skincare Devices
While they look cool and feel “high-tech,” the results from devices aren’t always dramatic.
They can help, but they’re not magic.
The Real Secret Behind the Glow-Up
Here’s the part most people miss:
The transformation wasn’t just about Medicube.
It was about:
- Consistency
- Proper routine
- Targeting specific skin issues
The products helped — but the process made the difference.
So… Is Medicube Worth It?
Here’s the honest answer:
👉 YES! if you choose the right products for your skin
👉 NO! if you think buying everything will magically fix your skin
If you’re dealing with:
- Acne
- Visible pores
- Oily or textured skin
Then Medicube is definitely worth trying.
But don’t fall into the trap of overcomplicating your routine.
Final Thoughts
Trends come and go, but good skincare always comes down to the basics:
- Cleanse properly
- Use targeted treatments
- Stay consistent
Medicube fits into that — but it’s not a shortcut.
At the end of the day, your glow-up isn’t about one brand…
It’s about building a routine that actually works for you.
Quick Tip (From What We Observed)
If you’re just starting out, don’t copy the full routine.
Start with:
- A cleanser
- A pore-focused toner
- One treatment serum
- A moisturizer
Then build from there.
Because the goal isn’t to use more products…
It’s to use the right ones.
