Start with a toner pad right after cleansing
This is a first-step toner product, meant to be used immediately after cleansing. It gently sweeps away residual dead skin cells and impurities that washing alone can miss, while prepping your skin to better absorb the skincare that follows. Think of it as a quick reset for your skin texture before you apply essence or serum.
A daily pad you can use morning and night
In the morning, use it to lightly clear away overnight oil and flakiness. In the evening, let it cool and calm skin that's been through the day. Formulated at a mildly acidic pH (5.5–6.5), it's gentle enough for everyday use and has completed skin irritation testing.
Wipe with the embossed side, finish with the smooth side
Use the built-in tweezers to lift out a pad hygienically. With the embossed side, gently wipe along your skin texture across areas prone to buildup—forehead, nose, chin. Flip it over and use the smooth side to lightly sweep across your cheeks and around the eyes. Press any remaining essence into your skin with your palms to help it absorb.
How to adapt it to your skin's needs
For an instant cooling effect, store the jar in the fridge before use. When your cheeks or forehead feel warm or reactive, place a pad over the area and leave it on for about 5 minutes like a mini sheet mask. Follow up with a hydrating essence or gel cream to lock in both calming and moisture benefits.
What to know when using a product with BHA, PHA, and LHA
This pad contains BHA (helps dissolve pore-clogging debris), PHA (gentle exfoliation), and LHA (helps control sebum). It's designed to be low-irritation for daily use, but if your skin feels sensitive or dry, try cutting back to once a day. Avoid layering it with retinol or high-strength acids on the same day—stagger them by time of day instead. Always close the lid tightly after use to keep the pads from drying out.
