There's no stickiness, and the pad is thin and supple, so it's easy to apply like a face pack. It has a cooling effect, so it's great to use on hot days or after a lot of sun exposure. It's not drying at all.
ConsI haven't noticed any downsides yet, as the experience has been quite good.

The pad has a cooling sensation, so it's good for those with flushing or high body heat. For those with sensitive skin or severe inner dryness, the sudden influx of moisture to the inner skin layers can feel stinging. At first, I thought it didn't suit me and stopped using it, but I didn't break out in trouble, and it felt moisturizing every time I used it. It still feels a bit stinging, but the dryness has improved somewhat.
ConsThe pads are thinner than expected, so you need to be careful when picking them up. I sometimes accidentally grab two at a time. There's a toner-like liquid inside, and it can spill if you flip it over. It happened to me because I was putting it in with the tweezers, and the lid didn't close all the way. Those who do the same should always handle it cautiously. The occasional stinging sensation when using it is a bit disappointing. But I've gotten used to it, and it's become more manageable.
TipAfter using the lightest toner, I apply the Doctoryo (conclusion)

I also suddenly had a rash on my skin, and after using it consistently for 8 days, the rash really subsided. And the cooling sensation is great, and the gauze adheres well, so it doesn't fall off even during daily activities. The scent is just right, and the effects were visibly noticeable, which was good. This is the best for mask-related skin troubles!
ConsSince the number of pads is limited, it feels a bit wasteful to use them freely. And one day, I had it on for a bit longer, around 15-20 minutes, and I actually ended up with a rash. No matter how good it is, moderation is key. And it wasn't very effective for acne.

Even though I have acne and oily skin, it still works well for me. There's also a slight cooling sensation after using it~~
ConsI haven't used it much yet, so I don't think I've seen a big effect yet...

First, I felt that the inclusion of tweezers showed their consideration for hygiene. When I first opened it, the green ampoule gave me an impression of a cica product. When I applied it to my face, the cooling sensation effectively reduced the heat in my skin. At first, I thought the product would be like a blotting paper, but this cica pad seems to be designed to lower the skin temperature during skincare. The thin pad adheres well to the skin, so it doesn't fall off even if you shake your head or blow-dry your hair. I guess that was their intention. I initially used it at room temperature, then tried it after refrigerating, but the cooling sensation felt similar to the initial temperature when it touched my skin, so I've been using it at room temperature since then. Just a heads up...
ConsWhen I first used it, I did feel a slight redness in my skin due to the cooling sensation. The cooling sensation may cause a bit of irritation. However, the pad adheres well, and the addition of the tweezers for hygiene is very good, so I don't have any other complaints.
TipIf you want to feel the coolness from the beginning, I recommend refrigerating it before use. If you want the cooling sensation to last longer, I suggest using it at room temperature. Ah, if you're looking for a blotting paper-like product, this pad might not be the most suitable option due to its thinness.

I'm not very familiar with how to write reviews, so I just wrote down what I really felt! The photos are of my skin condition on the first day before using the pads and 2 weeks after using them. 😊Soothing, Cooling Sensation It definitely soothes my skin. Since I applied it to my skin that was breaking out due to the mask, I felt like my skin temperature went down, and the redness in my skin seemed to subside a bit! 😊Brightening It's stated to have brightening functionality, so I'm noting that down. There wasn't a dramatic whitening of my face or anything like that, but my skin did look a bit more radiant in a way that I could notice myself. 😊Ampoule Amount The ampoule amount is really, really a lot! From the very first use, there was almost 1/4 of the stack of pads filled with ampoule, so I never have to worry about the ampoule running out or being insufficient. 😊Pad Thickness/Adherence The pads are really thin. Wow.. It's in a net-like structure and is so thin that it just clings to the skin. I would even apply it to my chin in the evenings and it wouldn't fall off even when I ate.
Cons😕Size The size is a bit small for the intended use of covering the face. Even when I tried to apply it to cover my cheeks and the sides of my face, it would only cover one side at a time. 😕Amount 70 sheets... When I use it, I use anywhere from 2 to 4 sheets at a time, so they get used up really quickly. Even though I didn't use it every day and only used it sporadically, I feel like I've already used up about half of them in just 2 weeks.
Tip✨Putting it in the fridge and using it cold really helps reduce the feeling of skin irritation. ✨ Since the area around the nose and chin is narrower, you can try cutting one pad in half and applying it to those areas!

The pads stay on even when I move around. On these hot days when the mask irritates my sensitive, reddened skin, using this for 10 minutes provides rapid soothing and cooling effects - it's an amazing product. Since my skin is sensitive, products often don't agree with me and cause skin troubles. But this one doesn't, so I keep using it^^
ConsIt's awkward to store the tweezers, and in fact, using them often picks up 2-3 sheets at a time, so I end up using my hands. I wish the pads were a bit larger, or if there were different size options that would be great too~~
TipI store and use this in the refrigerator. The cooling sensation helps it soothe my skin even faster.

The essence quantity is truly amazing. 🔅I have sensitive skin, so I couldn't use just any product, and I was worried about wasting money if the product didn't suit me. But I found this one that is not at all irritating and has great value for money. 🔅The generous essence amount doesn't irritate my skin much. 🔅There are 70 sheets, so I can use it repeatedly and sufficiently. (The quantity is not small) 🔅There is a slight cooling effect, so it feels refreshing when stored in the fridge and used in the summer. 🔅My stubborn acne has significantly diminished, which is really !! important to me ㅠㅠ❤️ 🔅For those with sensitive skin!! Since it's in a gauze-like form, you shouldn't wipe it on aggressively, but gently pat it in. 🔅After use, it's not sticky and feels refreshing. 🔅The fragrance is also really nice. 🔅After use, there's not too much oiliness either! Instead of applying a heavy cream in the morning these summer-like days, just do a 5-minute sheet mask with this product in the morning before going out. It'll keep your skin hydrated, and also help soothe redness in the morning.
ConsThere's a tweezer included, but there's nowhere to put it.
TipWhen using it as a sheet mask, don't leave it on for more than 6-7 minutes or so. For some reason, when I was applying it, the essence amount seemed a lot, but when I tried to wipe it off and cleanse my skin, the essence had suddenly diminished a lot, causing some irritation. But!! When just using it as a regular essence, the essence amount is really generous, so there's hardly any irritation.

Cons- Not a fresh finish, felt sticky - Instant soothing, but long-lasting soothing effect was hard to see (Minimal changes in skin over 2 weeks) - Thin pads were difficult to pick up one by one with tweezers - Used 4-5 pads each time for masking, and used up almost all in 2 weeks...poor cost-effectiveness - No repurchase intention (instant soothing effect was there, but did not last long and redness did not improve much)
Tip- Good for instant soothing when needed, as the masking provides both moisture and soothing effect at the same time
