Lucy (@lucyisdewy) captured a close-up showing the product’s power in a viral video on TikTok.
“If you’re like me and have naturally large and clogged pores, I have something for you,” she said.
She took a close-up photo of her nose, which is prone to blemishes caused by clogged pores.
Lucy clearly had a blockage in her nose and upper nostrils.
She was determined to demonstrate the power of Amazon’s essentials and captured it on camera for an eager audience.
Holy Grail
She took some pads from a jar of the product and covered her face with four, cutting one of them to fit the curvature of her face.
Lucy was using the Medicube Zero Pore Pads 2.0, which are currently sold out on Amazon but sold at third-party retailers for a price of about $21.10.
After removing the pads and cleaning her face, her skin became visibly clearer.
