It really helps prevent blackheads from forming, and my pores look much cleaner when I use it. It gives a deep, squeaky-clean feeling with no residue left behind.
ConsIf you let it sit on your face for a while after applying, it can sting a bit. It can also make your skin feel dry right after washing, so be sure to moisturize immediately after.
TipIf I skip using this for just a week, I start getting those black dots on my nose again, and my skin feels bumpy when I touch it. But if I use it daily, that never happens. In the winter, when my skin is drier, I like to just use this at night and then use a more moisturizing cleansing foam in the morning.

I've been using it for 6 months, hoping to see improvements in blackheads and sebum. How to use? Lather it up like soap on your nose, under your mouth, and between your eyebrows! You need to keep massaging it until the black turns to a grayish color! Then, rinse it off. Effects? The whiteheads do seem to disappear, but I'm not sure about the blackheads... Some of them do go away, but the deeply rooted ones seem to remain. However, it does make my skin feel smoother and more supple after use, even if it doesn't completely clear out all the blackheads. Scent? It has a strong soap-like and cleansing scent. Skin after use? Since it contains surfactants, it can be drying. Be sure to moisturize well after use! I've heard that when the skin gets too dry, it can overcompensate by producing more oil, disrupting the skin's balance. So, be sure to apply your basic skincare products right after!
ConsAvoid using on sensitive areas! One day, I tried using the Lubba all over my face, just like a blogger I saw. But the next day, I broke out in small bumps! I was really shocked and didn't use it for a while. But thinking about it, it's probably because it's quite harsh on the skin. I recommend avoiding use around the sensitive areas like the corners of your mouth or areas you find to be dry. However, even pore strips can be more irritating, so this might be the best you can do... I just wish I could live in a world without any sebum!

Using this, I really feel like blackheads are gone 2. The volume has increased compared to the pre-renewal version
ConsThe pre-renewal version is much better overall, you should definitely buy the pre-renewal version!!! 1. The container is inconvenient It's good that it's transparent so you can see how much you've used, and it's kind of pretty, but other than that, everything is inconvenient. The lid has to be twisted open, so you have to be careful not to get the exposed part dirty when closing it. And just like the previous product, you can only push it up, not pull it down... Even a 1,000 won glue stick can be pushed up and pulled down, but this product that costs over 10 times as much can't do that... 2. It's extremely rough When you rub and touch it, you're like, 'Huh? It's the same as the previous one?' but after rubbing it 3 times, you'll be like, 'Did I buy sandpaper?' because charcoal granules come up. It's really painful to rub on your palm, so how can you rub it on your face... Did the employees here all have steel plates on their faces? 3. Your face turns dark after washing... It's really shocking, normally after washing your face, your face goes from #21 to #19, but with this, it feels like your face turns to the dark #21 tone you get from having a medical condition... It's really shocking, but when you wipe your face with a towel, there's no black color coming off
TipPlease buy the pre-renewal version, this is really ××

It is definitely less drying.
ConsAt first, I was surprised by how rough the particles were and wondered how I could rub this on my face... But after rubbing it a lot to melt the surface, it became softer. I recommend that those who find it stinging cut off a portion. The black particles don't seem to rinse off easily. Even after rinsing for a long time, a lot of it comes off on the cotton when using toner.
TipUse the basic version instead of the plus version.

The higher charcoal content makes the color more intense. After washing, I feel a refreshing and moisturizing sensation.
ConsDuring the first use, it felt a bit painful, perhaps because of the charcoal powder(?) at the top. Compared to the previous Rub Bar, it felt very scratchy, and I wondered if I had bought the wrong product. From the second use onwards, it became a bit gentler, and after using it for over a month, it feels smooth. The container is designed to be twisted open, and this causes the product to get stuck in the grooves. The previous Rub Bar container, which opens and closes, seems much more convenient.
TipDuring the first use, you have to rub it on your hands firmly. Otherwise, you'll feel like it's scratching your face.. ㅠㅠ

As certified in previous versions, it helps reduce blackheads.
ConsIt stings during and after use. It's okay if you use it very gently, but that's not easy to do.
TipUsing it with a foam net to create foam helps a bit.

That's the answer..
ConsThe surface feels rough, and it hurts every time I roll it... Even when I'm gentle. And I feel like the charcoal is lingering on my face. No matter how much I wash it off with water, there's a blackish feeling on my face. I don't know if that's the reason, but I hadn't had a big pimple for a few months, but as soon as I changed the cleansing product, I got two huge pimples.. I used it for a week, but I'm going to throw it away and use another product. I really don't recommend it.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAt first, I had concerns about blackheads and whiteheads around my nose and cheeks, but after using it, the whiteheads that were visible when I put on makeup have completely disappeared, and my nose looks incredibly smooth and supple.
ConsThe rolling motion is too rough, so the experience is not great. It seems a bit irritating to apply all over the face, and after using it, some areas became red and painful (I don't have sensitive skin normally). It would probably work best if just used on the areas concerned with blackheads.
