What it is

Mild acid toner pads designed to sweep away impurities and excess sebum while calming and hydrating to keep pores looking refined.

Who it's for

• Oily or combination skin needing gentle daily/weekly pore care.
• Those prone to clogged pores who want low-irritation exfoliation.
• Users preferring a swipe-on pad format for quick routines.

Key ingredients (INCI)

• BHA/PHA (gentle acids) — cosmetic exfoliation to clear pores and smooth texture.
• Soothing agents (e.g., centella derivatives/panthenol) — calm and comfort skin.
• Humectants (e.g., hyaluronic acid/glycerin) — hydrate and maintain slip.
• Light emollients — help reduce tightness without heavy residue.

Free-from / texture

• Essence-soaked pads with a light, non-sticky finish.
• Typically low fragrance; review INCI for sensitivities.
• Leaves skin fresh and prepped without heavy film.

How to use & order

• PM recommended for first use. After cleansing, swipe pad gently across face and neck, avoiding eyes.
• Do not rinse. Follow with serum and moisturizer; apply sunscreen the next morning.
• Start 2–3 times weekly, then increase if well-tolerated.

Conflicts & layering tips

• Avoid pairing in the same routine with strong acids, retinoids, or benzoyl peroxide.
• Keep the rest of the routine hydrating and barrier-focused to buffer potential sensitivity.
• Patch test if you have sensitive or compromised skin; reduce frequency if irritation occurs.

Evidence & notes

• Acid effects are cosmetic exfoliation; any pore-tightening is cosmetic and temporary.
• Humectants provide plumping when sealed with moisturizer.
• Tingling is possible; rinse off if discomfort is significant.

Safety

• For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
• Do not use on broken or compromised skin; consult a professional if post-procedure.
• Patch test along the jawline before first full use.
• Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; defer to your physician for personal guidance.
