They said it was made of cotton, and there was no irritation at all, which was great. I haven't used pads a lot, but the ones I've used before were a bit irritating, possibly to maximize the exfoliating function (even some famous products were like that). But this product was really, really soft!! Even though the exfoliating function was effective, as I could feel my skin texture become smoother the next morning, it wasn't too harsh. The pad size was also large, so it was easy to wipe. The essence was also mild (the scent was not overbearing either) and nicely moisturized. It wasn't overly damp, so I could use it comfortably without any discomfort. Since the ingredients are gentle, even though my skin tends to have breakouts and bumps, I didn't experience any trouble or irritation, and it calmed my skin well. I think the ingredients suit my skin well, as my skin texture definitely improved (less bumps and breakouts). And the tweezers that can be clipped onto the lid are really convenient. It's easy to pick up one pad at a time, and the tweezers storage is hygienic and convenient - it's a thoughtful design.
ConsThere wasn't really any disappointing point, but hmm, the name is 'Tone-up Pad', but the tone-up effect wasn't dramatically noticeable. However, I haven't really experienced dramatic tone-up effects from any products, so it's more like my skin looked brighter, but not dramatically tone-up.

Excellent moisturizing power I had planned to use it every morning and evening after receiving it, and I definitely used it every evening. The pads are thick and the toner is sufficiently soaked, so it would be a shame to just wipe it off and be done. Also, the moisturizing power is so good that I almost just wiped and dried after my morning cleansing with this alone. Other toners make my skin feel tight right away, so I can't skip the next step, but this one kept my skin moisturized for a long time even if I forgot to apply a lotion; I realized this after drying my skin a bit. 2. Low irritation Both the pads and the toner contents seem to be low-irritation. The pads are thick but incredibly soft, so there's no irritation. My skin is oily, and even when I wiped it thoroughly, it just became smooth without getting red. Of course, I wiped it gently. The toner also didn't cause any more acne, even though I'm taking acne medication. It worked well as the final step of my skincare routine, effectively removing residual impurities. 3. Convenient design The inclusion of a tweezer to take out the pads one by one in a hygienic way, and the existence of a slot to store the tweezer, were really great features. I guess the price is a bit higher due to these thoughtful details. The cap also has a clasp to open and close, so there's no need to worry about misplacing the cap during a busy morning routine. The toner contents are just the right amount for the pads to fully absorb, not too much or too little. I don't have to worry about leftovers or not having enough.
Cons1. Brightening effect perception? It's written that there is an immediate brightening effect, but I'm not sure if I can really tell the difference. The other products I use also have a brightening effect, so the difference may not be as noticeable. I didn't feel a drastic change. It might be because the usage period is still short, even though it claims to have an 'immediate' effect. But at least my skin didn't get darker, so there must be some tone-improving effect from the niacinamide and vitamin C. Whether it's truly immediate, I'm not too sure about that. 2. Oh, the price I was lucky to be selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and got to use this product for free, but when I looked into repurchasing it, the price is quite high! There are actually many other famous and more affordable toner pad products out there. The low-irritation aspect is great, but some other products have textured pads that can also exfoliate, while this one doesn't seem to have that function. The price makes me hesitate a bit.
