What it is

A gentle exfoliating toner pad that combines fruit-derived acids with niacinamide and hydrating humectants to refine texture appearance, boost luminosity, and leave skin comfortable.

Who it's for

  • Dull or rough-feeling skin needing light exfoliation plus hydration.
  • Normal, combination, or oily skin types comfortable with mild acids.
  • Routines that want a quick wipe-on step before serums and moisturizer.

Key ingredients (INCI)

  • Fruit-derived gentle exfoliating agents (apple peel-inspired) — cosmetic smoothing and tone-refining.
  • Niacinamide — supports even-looking tone and barrier resilience.
  • Humectants (e.g., glycerin, hyaluronic acid) — attract and hold moisture.
  • Soothing agents (e.g., centella derivatives/allantoin) — help buffer exfoliation.

Free-from / texture

  • Soft, pre-soaked cotton pads with a watery essence; low residue.
  • Low oil content; check INCI for personal fragrance sensitivities.
  • Leaves a fresh, non-sticky finish suitable for layering.

How to use & order

  • After cleansing, swipe a pad gently over face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
  • Use at night 2–3 times weekly to start; adjust frequency as tolerated.
  • Follow with serum, moisturizer, and daytime sunscreen.

Conflicts & layering tips

  • Avoid same-routine use with strong acids, retinoids, or benzoyl peroxide; alternate days.
  • Keep the rest of the routine hydrating and barrier-supporting to buffer exfoliation.
  • Patch test if you have sensitive or compromised skin; reduce frequency if irritation occurs.

Evidence & notes

  • Brightness and smoothing are cosmetic; consistent use is needed to maintain appearance.
  • Niacinamide supports a more even-looking tone; humectants help plump temporarily when sealed with moisturizer.
  • Sunscreen is essential when using exfoliating products.

Safety

  • For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
  • Patch test before first use, especially if you have sensitive or reactive skin.
  • Avoid applying on broken or freshly exfoliated skin; consult a professional if post-procedure.
  • Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; defer to your physician for personal guidance.
