ConsUsing it daily can damage your skin barrier Has a strong alcohol-like scent that might be polarizing
TipWhen your skin is irritated or you're experiencing a breakout, using it once a week helps exfoliate without causing too much irritation Even for those with resilient skin, daily use is too much I use it every other day - on Mondays and Thursdays, following up Thursday's application with a modeling mask This routine effectively removes dead skin cells, significantly reducing the bumpy texture on my nose area without causing irritation

Recently, I was considering switching to those pads Yoo Jae-suk advertises for pores, when surprisingly, I won these pore pads... haha! Turning 40, my pores have expanded dramatically both horizontally and vertically. While the effect doesn't last forever after wiping, it's amazing how the pores seem to shrink. When applying sunscreen, there's this indescribable feeling of a smoother surface - an undeniable effect that only I can sense. Compared to the moisture pads, these feel like they should be quite harsh, but surprisingly, they're not... The most incredible thing is that they removed a blackhead on my nose that had been there so long it was like a beauty mark... I'm touched! Just as I've been raving about the moisture pads to my friends, I can definitely recommend these too! It feels amazing to use such a great product for free... Thank you ♡
ConsThere's a brief, strong alcohol-like smell that's a bit unpleasant for a moment. The inner seal tears messily when you open it... sigh.
TipAbsolutely don't peel off the entire aluminum inner seal - only open half at a time for use... It prevents drying out. Placing the tongs on top of the inner seal before closing the lid keeps things tidy.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review: Skin type: Sensitive, combination, with small blemishes, whiteheads, and visible pores in the T-zone and nose area. - Usage period: 9 days (used only in the evening) - Application method: Continued using other skincare products (hyaluronic acid serum, moisture gel) and only switched from green pads to Poreless pads I appreciate that they include tweezers for hygienic use of the product! Previously, I used an exfoliating tool to remove dead skin cells, but now I can effectively exfoliate just by wiping with the embossed side of the pad! (Note: Using this with other exfoliating products may be too harsh for sensitive skin! It's best to adjust usage based on your skin type) Personally, I find that leaving the soft side on areas with visible pores, like a mask, seems more effective than just wiping! These pads are definitely excellent for improving skin texture! I've noticed a significant improvement in uneven areas since using them! The feel of these pads is quite different from what I'm used to, which is interesting! I previously used COSRX Green Hero Calming Pad, which left my skin feeling moisturized. These Poreless pads, however, leave my skin feeling slightly moisturized but with a more pronounced fresh, matte finish!
ConsI wish there was a designated storage space for the tweezers along with the pads. The amount of essence on these pads seems less compared to other pads, which is a bit disappointing. The sealed part is really difficult to open. There's an alcohol-like scent mixed with a peculiar fragrance, which I find slightly off-putting every time I use it! Due to my sensitive skin, daily use caused irritation leading to blemishes on my cheeks and chin. In such cases, it's advisable to adjust the frequency of use according to individual skin types.
TipFor those who exfoliate separately, after cleansing, instead of wiping with the pad, try placing the soft side on your skin like a mask. Follow up with serum or cream to replenish moisture. This method works well!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsGentle on skin: I was worried that using pads might irritate my skin, but honestly, I didn't feel any irritation. In fact, after using them, I noticed a significant reduction in redness! Effectiveness: Recently, I've started noticing some blackheads and whiteheads, but since I started using these pads, I've seen some improvement! My skin definitely feels smoother, and my complexion has improved a lot, which I'm absolutely thrilled about. Texture: Rather than being moisturizing, it has more of a... soft, velvety feel? It's unique and not too sticky, which I really like. Hygiene: I always felt a bit uneasy taking out pads with my fingers, so I'm glad these come with tweezers. Ingredients: I always try to use products with good ingredients, and I felt confident using this product because of its high-quality formulation.
ConsScent: The fragrance is somewhat alcohol-like. While it's not my personal favorite, it's tolerable enough to use without much issue. Packaging: The packaging was a bit difficult to open... haha!
TipPersonally, I found it works best to skip toner and essence, and simply finish with a cream after using the pads for a quick and easy routine!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Testers [Review after 1+ week of use] 1. When I first received the product, I was pleased to see it was larger than others I've used before, making it great for overall skin care. 2. It's gentle yet effective, with a mild scent that feels good on the skin. As someone who struggles with dead skin cells, I've tried many peeling gels and exfoliating products. However, with these poreless pads, I could visibly see a reduction in dead skin cells day by day.
ConsThe plastic cover is a bit stiff, making it difficult to remove. While the scent isn't overpowering, there's a subtle alcohol-like fragrance that lingers.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. The included tweezers make it incredibly neat and convenient to use. 2. One side is soft while the other has more texture, which is great for using on different areas. I use the soft side on my cheeks where the skin is thinner, and the textured side on my chin, nose, and around the edges of my face where there's more oil and dead skin cells tend to accumulate. 3. True to its focus on pores, it's excellent for managing dead skin cells. On days I use it, my makeup definitely applies better. Even when using a magnifying mirror, my pores look noticeably cleaner. After use, my skin feels comfortable and refreshed. 4. It works well even for sensitive and problematic skin types. The ingredients are really good. Throughout the review period, I didn't experience any blemishes at all while using it.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, I'd say the scent? Not that it smells bad, but it has an alcohol-like smell even though there's no alcohol in it. I actually double-checked the ingredient list because I was suspicious.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAs someone with super sensitive combination skin: 1. It's incredibly gentle! As I mentioned, my skin is extremely sensitive, making it hard to switch up my skincare routine. I've been using the same toner and moisturizer for 2 years! So I'm usually hesitant to try new products for The Hwahae Testers. But I remembered having good experiences with COSRX's red and green pads, and the ingredients seemed gentle, so I decided to give these a try. Just as I hoped, I've been using them for 2 weeks now and haven't had a single blemish or pimple. I'm absolutely thrilled! 2. Dual-sided pads! This is probably a common feature for most pads, but it's so convenient not having to exfoliate separately. It's also less irritating to my skin. 3. Hydration and improved texture! While I can't say I've noticed a dramatic reduction in pore size yet, these pads definitely leave my skin feeling hydrated. The improvement in my skin's texture is visibly noticeable, which I love!
Cons1. The infamous sealing... I've never encountered a cosmetic product with such a difficult-to-remove seal! I was genuinely surprised. I ended up having to tear all four sides to get it open. 2. The scent...? The fragrance isn't terrible, but there's a slight alcohol smell masquerading as 'unscented.' It's not overpowering, but if I had to pick something to improve, it would be the scent. 3. The tongs I didn't even realize this product came with tongs until I sat down to write this review... If they're supposed to be included, make sure to check for them before tossing the container. Unfortunately, I've already crossed that bridge...

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros‼️This is a review from The Hwahae Testers.‼️ (After one week of use.) Before diving into the positives, I should mention that I have numerous blackheads and visible pores around my nose area, and I have combination dehydrated skin. I used the product as instructed on the packaging. 1️⃣Positive Point 1: After using the pad, it smoothed out the blackheads around my nose area nicely. Using the pad won't completely eliminate existing blackheads. However, it does refine protruding blackheads, making the affected areas feel smoother. 2️⃣Positive Point 2: Although the pad has a gauze-like texture, it wasn't harsh on the skin and effectively removed dead skin cells from my face. 3️⃣Positive Point 3: Despite having a scent similar to alcohol, which might suggest a drying effect, it didn't dry out my skin at all. There was plenty of essence, allowing for a moisturizing application. My skin remained hydrated even until the next morning. 4️⃣Positive Point 4: Unlike a previous COSRX pad I bought that didn't come with tweezers, forcing me to use my hands, this one included tweezers. This allowed for a more hygienic application.
ConsThe alcohol-like scent was a bit off-putting at first. While I've noticed effects on blackheads, I'm not yet sure about its impact on pores - I might need to use it longer to tell. The pads aren't irritating, but they're not exactly soft either.
TipI felt that after removing blackheads and using this product, new blackheads seemed to form more slowly. It might be worth trying to use this after removing blackheads in your preferred method.
