It works well as a toner substitute after morning cleansing, smoothing dead skin cells and refining skin texture, making it great to use before applying base makeup. It was more effective when focused on the T-zone where pores are more noticeable, rather than the entire face.

While the matte finish is a plus, on dry days there was a slight feeling of tightness. The abundance of essence is great, but sometimes it was tricky to pull out the pads from the container.

Despite being a pore care product, it's gentle enough for sensitive skin to use without irritation. The pads are thick and generously soaked in essence, reducing friction when wiping. After use, skin feels more refined and makeup adheres much better.

Personally, I didn't find any drawbacks. It's a product I always repurchase.

[Skin type: Extremely dry hands, dry feet, extremely dry lips, oily scalp, combination dehydrated skin on face, dry body]
[Complexion 23-24, concerned about makeup settling into under-eye wrinkles, lip line pigmentation, brown dark circles, good skin texture but worried about pores, no major blemishes but severe redness on cheekbones]

• It's fragrance-free
• The pads are on the smaller side
• The two sides have different textures - using the embossed side on areas with noticeable pores feels refreshing
• Helps manage dead skin cells and improve skin texture as an exfoliating toner
• I usually use about two pads at a time - it feels completely refreshing when used behind the ears and on the chest
• The hydration lasts for a long time

At first, it was really effective at removing dead skin cells, but I can't help feeling like the results have become less noticeable over time. I wonder if it's just my imagination...

I tried a sample and liked it so much I bought the full size. These pads are great for days when my skin feels oily with lots of dead skin cells. The pads have a slightly rough texture, but they're not irritating enough to cause problems. I'm using them regularly and really appreciate that they don't leave any residue. Personally, I love them and use them often.

I apply it as the first step after cleansing.

The slightly pointy side can be painful when it touches blemishes, feeling like it's irritating them.

I'm using this diligently as I think it might be effective for my pores. The pads have a unique texture I've never seen before.

The pad has a bumpy texture, but I'm not sure why that's necessary. I just use it without thinking much about it.

It's not greasy at all, so the feel on the skin is pretty good. Highly recommended for those with oily skin who've been frustrated with other pads.

While I don't consider my skin to be particularly sensitive: 1. When I first opened it, I was taken aback by the waffle-shaped texture of the pads - it looked almost creepy, like it might trigger claustrophobia(?). The sensation on my face wasn't pleasant either. It felt so abrasive that I wondered if it was intentionally trying to 'scrub' the face. This is the most irritating pad I've ever used! Even while using it, I thought 'This feels too harsh...' 2. I used it in the order of cleansing > pad (toner) > emulsion > cream, but later my face became dry and slightly itchy in patches. Surprisingly, it also made my skin oily. 3. After using it for three consecutive days, my skin completely broke out, so I had to stop. I guess it's just not compatible with my skin...

As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I bought this product hoping it would tackle my blemishes and dead skin cells! 1. True to its 'poreless' name, it does give a sense of refined pores. 2. Being fragrance-free, I think anyone could use it without hesitation. 3. It has a nice balance of hydration and oil, leaving the skin feeling fresh.

The pads are a bit rough, so those with super sensitive skin might find them irritating. To be honest, I didn't notice a dramatic reduction in pores, but I did feel like gently rubbing it on areas with excess oil or blackheads helped reduce them a bit.

It's decently hydrating. There's a generous amount of essence, so it kept my skin moisturized until the end.

While it's a decent product for everyday use, it doesn't boast any extraordinary ingredients or remarkable effects. It's not particularly cost-effective either.

It's effective at removing stubborn impurities and dead skin cells that regular cleansing might miss. Works great as an exfoliating toner or as a toner mask for an extra boost.

I usually try all the new pads from COSRX, but I think I prefer their original embossed pads. These pads were a bit flimsy, causing them to roll up when wiping, and they didn't leave me feeling as refreshed.

The waffle-shaped pads had a noticeable texture when wiping, but it didn't cause any tingling sensation. While I'm not sure if it actually helped with pores, I felt a tightening effect as the remaining essence dried on my skin. At first, it seemed a bit sticky, but as it absorbed, the residual feeling seemed to diminish.

The downside is that it tends to leave behind little fibers or residue. If it weren't for that, it would be perfect.

It's really convenient and effective for minimizing pores. I always use it after cleansing in the evening, and it feels refreshing. I think it's making a difference.

The tweezers came loose in the package, and I almost threw them out by mistake. The seal on the container is incredibly secure, which is great for freshness, but it's frustratingly difficult to open.

I saw this recommended a lot on YouTube, and honestly, it lived up to my high expectations. Unlike other pads I've used that claim to exfoliate but end up being a bit harsh or irritating, these were just right - gentle yet effective. I appreciate that they come with tweezers, which is great for hygiene and easy handling, especially when your hands might not be completely clean after cleansing. Even with my atopic and dry skin, these left my face feeling hydrated. The scent, which seems to be divisive in reviews, was fine for me. The non-sticky serum made for a refreshingly light application.
