Refresh AHA/BHA Vitamin C Daily Cream

COSRX Refresh AHA/BHA Vitamin C Daily Cream is a moisturiser that does a little resurfacing while it hydrates. COSRX aims it at skin that looks dull, feels rough or carries dark spots — a daily cream rather than a treatment you have to schedule around.

What it actually does

• Exfoliates as part of the moisturising step. COSRX lists exfoliation and pore care among the cream's benefits, which is where the AHA and BHA in the name come in.
• Soothes without blocking pores. The brand describes it as quick to calm the skin while keeping pores clear.
• Vitalising and rebalancing. This is how COSRX frames the overall effect of the formula on the skin.
• What it is aimed at. The three concerns COSRX names are dullness, rough texture and dark spots.
• Nothing more is claimed. We are not going to invent percentages or study results — the brand's own copy for this cream is brief, so that is all there is to report.

How to use

1. Spread it evenly across the face, morning and night.
2. In the morning, always layer sunscreen over it — exfoliating acids make that non-negotiable.
3. If you are new to acids, start every other night and build up.

Questions

Do I really need SPF with it?

Yes, and COSRX says so directly for daytime use. Exfoliating acids leave skin more exposed to sun, and in Egypt that matters all year, not just in summer.

Can I use it alongside another exfoliant?

Be careful. The cream already carries AHA and BHA, so stacking a separate acid toner or scrub on the same night is how people end up with a compromised barrier. Pick one acid step per routine.

Is it a moisturiser or a treatment?

COSRX sells it as a daily cream, so it takes the moisturiser slot at the end of your routine while doing some exfoliating work at the same time.
