Start with this toner pad right after cleansing
This is a first-step toner product, meant to be used immediately after cleansing. It gently sweeps away lingering impurities and flaky dead skin cells that washing alone can miss, while prepping your skin to better absorb the serums and essences that follow. Think of it as a smoothing reset before the rest of your routine.
A daily pad you can use morning and night
In the morning, use it to clear away overnight oil and buildup. In the evening, reach for it post-cleanse to remove any last traces left behind. Formulated at a skin-friendly pH of 5.5 to 6.5, it's gentle enough for everyday use without compromising your skin barrier. It also works beautifully as a cooling treatment on flushed skin after a workout.
Wipe gently along the skin's natural texture
Use the built-in tongs to lift out a pad hygienically, then glide the embossed side along your skin's natural texture. Pay a little extra attention to areas prone to buildup like the forehead, nose, and chin, and keep it light around the cheeks and eye area. Once you've wiped, gently pat in any remaining essence with your palms. For targeted calming, you can also leave a pad on reactive areas for about 5 minutes, like a mini sheet mask.
Pairing it with your skin concerns
- Oily or combination skin: Follow up with a lightweight hydrating serum and keep it fresh and simple
- Dry skin: Layer a rich hydrating toner over the pad, then seal everything in with a nourishing cream
- Irritated or flushed days: Store the pads in the fridge and press them onto redness for an instant cooling treatment
A few things to keep in mind
This pad contains BHA, PHA, and LHA for gentle exfoliation, so using it on the same day as retinol or high-strength acids may cause irritation. Avoid the immediate eye area, and always close the lid tightly after use to keep the pads from drying out. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight, and discontinue use if you experience redness or itching.
