Medicube products in Kenya: which one to buy for your skin

Medicube is a Korean skincare brand that is all over social media, and more people in Kenya now ask us which Medicube product is actually right for them. We stock seven Medicube products, and they do quite different jobs. Here is a simple guide by skin concern, a basic routine, and what each one costs today.

What to look for

• Start with your main concern. Dark spots and pimple marks, dryness and fine lines, or oily skin that needs a proper cleanse. Pick for that first.
• Dark spots: look for TXA (tranexamic acid), niacinamide or kojic acid on the label.
• Dryness and fine lines: the collagen creams and the overnight mask.
• One new product at a time. Add one, give it two weeks, then add the next. That way you know what your skin likes.

Medicube picks by concern

Dark spots and uneven tone: TXA Niacinamide 15 Serum

Medicube TXA Niacinamide 15 Serum is a serum for dark spots, pimple marks and uneven tone. It is listed with TXA and niacinamide, plus hyaluronic acid and panthenol for hydration and comfort. If dark spots are your main worry, this is the Medicube product to start with.

Dark spots with redness: Kojic Acid Turmeric Niacinamide Serum

Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Niacinamide Serum also targets dark spots and uneven tone, with kojic acid, turmeric and niacinamide. It is listed as soothing, so it is a good pick if your marks come with redness. Choose this serum or the TXA one, not both at first.

Dark spots in one step: TXA Niacinamide Capsule Cream

Medicube TXA Niacinamide Capsule Cream is a moisturiser made to fade dark spots. If you want a short routine, this one cream can do the job of a serum and a moisturiser.

Dryness and fine lines: PDRN Pink Collagen Capsule Cream

Medicube PDRN Pink Collagen Capsule Cream is one of the most talked-about Medicube products. It is a hydrating cream with collagen, made to leave skin looking plump. A good choice for dry skin and early fine lines.

Light hydration for warm days: Collagen Jelly Cream

Medicube Collagen Jelly Cream is a cool gel-cream with collagen. If rich creams feel heavy in the Nairobi heat, this lighter texture is easier to wear.

An overnight treat: Collagen Night Wrapping Mask

Medicube Collagen Night Wrapping Mask is an overnight peel-off mask, listed with collagen, ceramides, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide. Use it once or twice a week as the last step at night, in place of your cream.

To start the routine: Zero Foam Cleanser

Medicube Zero Foam Cleanser is a gentle, deep-cleaning foam. It suits oily skin and is listed for sensitive skin too.

A simple Medicube routine

Morning: Zero Foam Cleanser, one serum, a cream, then sunscreen. Night: cleanser, the same serum, then a cream. Once or twice a week at night, use the wrapping mask instead of your cream. You do not need all seven products. A cleanser, one serum and one cream is plenty.

Questions we get asked

Is Medicube legit?

Yes. Medicube is a real Korean skincare brand. As with any popular brand, copies exist, so buy from a shop you can visit. We sell original Medicube at our shop at Shop B8, Moon Palace, Twelfth Street, Eastleigh.

Which Medicube product is best for dark spots?

Start with the TXA Niacinamide 15 Serum. If your marks come with redness, choose the Kojic Acid Turmeric Niacinamide Serum instead. If you want just one product, the TXA Niacinamide Capsule Cream works as a moisturiser too.

How much are Medicube products in Kenya?

Our Medicube products cost roughly KSh 2,400 to KSh 3,300, depending on the product. The live prices are in the list above. Delivery is free from KSh 3,000.

How do I use the Medicube collagen night wrapping mask?

At night, after your serum, spread a thin, even layer over your face as the last step. Leave it on overnight, then peel it off in the morning and rinse. Once or twice a week is enough.

Is Medicube worth it?

It can be, if you buy for one clear concern instead of buying everything. One serum and one cream used every day, with sunscreen, will do more than five products used now and then.
