This is a pad that I used frequently when my skin temperature rose in the summer! When I use it, it feels cool and refreshing, but it's not too irritating and it immediately lowers my skin temperature.
Cons
Sometimes, it can sting a little if I use it when I have breakouts or after extraction.

It's so refreshing and fluffy, not sticky or oily at all, I really love it.
Cons
I'm not sure if it's working properly, so I end up touching it every now and then.
Tip
Keep it in the refrigerator when using.

Recently, my skin has been peeling and flipping over, so I decided to buy a new product. The reviews were average, and it was mentioned that the fragrance was the main feature, so I purchased it without much concern. As I'm a huge fan of mint, I didn't mind the strong scent.😳 First of all, it's not sticky and absorbs quickly. After using the product for 3-4 days, I noticed that the flipped-over areas of my face have calmed down, so I think it's a good product! My skin used to feel irritated and painful even after just washing my face, but that issue has disappeared. My skin also feels much less dry and not at all greasy, which is fantastic. If the effects continue like this, I'll definitely consider repurchasing.😊😊
Cons
I don't have any complaints, but I think others might be a bit startled by the fragrance. I gave it to a friend to try, and they said they liked everything else, but the scent was too strong for them.🥲 (It's more of a powerful scent than a pleasant, minty aroma)
Tip
I found it was especially great to use in the evenings. Applying it right before bed and then sleeping was incredibly effective.😶😶

The quality of the toner pads is really important. The Bella Monster toner pads are great because they can be used without any pilling. They gently exfoliate and refine the skin texture without irritating even sensitive skin, and they don't just remove excess oil but also replenish moisture, leaving the skin feeling soft and supple after use. The pads have a refreshing mint scent, and the packaging is clean and satisfactory. This is a great item to use as a toner pad in the summer.
Cons
At 24,000 won for 60 sheets, the price of 400 won per sheet is a bit disappointing. But there are no other downsides.
Tip
It's also great to use the pads after refrigerating them for about 10 minutes to make them nice and cool.

@Hwahae Trial Reviewer@ I have skin with quite a few pores that are a bit small on my cheeks. As soon as I put the pad on my skin, I felt a burning sensation on my face. I thought, 'Well, of course, it's mint.' And I personally like that kind of feeling. But I couldn't apply it to the area under my nose because it stung. After using it and completing my usual skincare routine, when I woke up the next day, my skin had flipped over...ㅠ I only used the pad on my cheeks, but my cheeks had completely flipped, and it took 2 weeks to recover.ㅠ There wasn't really any bad ingredient, but I don't know why this happened to me.ㅠ I'm a bit sensitive, so I don't use anything too harsh or irritating, but I thought this would be good for pore management, so I wanted to try it, but unfortunately, it didn't suit my skin.ㅠ My friend also bought it from Olive Young, and she used it without any trouble.ㅠ My friend also said she felt the burning sensation! I used it hoping for pore-minimizing effects, but as soon as I used it, I broke out, so I couldn't use it anymore.ㅠ
Cons
For sensitive skin, it's better not to use it. I broke out.ㅠ

When I first opened it, the mint aroma was very pleasing to me. I tend to prefer a lighter base rather than a heavier one, and the fresh and light feel of this product was great. I often use cotton pads soaked in essence or toner to cleanse, but these mint pads already have the essence absorbed in them, making it very convenient to use. The included tweezers are also stored inside, which is much more hygienic than providing a separate pair. I had no trouble at all peeling off the pads one by one. I also like to store the pads in the refrigerator and use them chilled, as this helps remove any remaining pore residue or impurities after cleansing, and the enhanced mint scent is also refreshing. The pads are also reversible, so I can choose the softer side for days when I don't want much stimulation, or the more textured gauze side when I want a deeper cleanse. Some pads can feel overly saturated and drippy, but the essence amount on these pads is just right - not too much, but enough to be effective. My husband, who has issues with large pores and oiliness, has also used these a few times, and he noticed his skin was less oily the next day. I think using these consistently would be really beneficial.
Cons
The only thing that could be improved is if there was some kind of separator or barrier between the tweezers and the pads inside the one-touch cap, to make it even more hygienic by preventing direct contact.
Tip
Storing the pads in the refrigerator and using them chilled provides an extra cooling sensation.

✔️Efficacy➡️After using it consistently for 2 weeks, my pores have visibly reduced. The stubborn blackheads that never went away have gradually diminished. And after showering, the white sebum that usually pops out has been effectively controlled by this product. Usually, products focused on cooling, sebum, and pores tend to lack in hydration, but this one provides sufficient moisture, so those with oily skin can just apply a lotion and their skincare routine is complete. ✔️Toner Pad Function➡️I liked that I could use the toner pad to refine my skin texture without it feeling sticky on my hands. The pad size is also generous, and it holds enough essence to not only thoroughly absorb into my face but also cover my neck and upper chest area. The material doesn't pill, so it's better than using cotton pads to apply toner. The built-in tweezer in the package is also a nice hygienic touch. ✔️Ingredients➡️Since this is the first product to touch my skin after cleansing, the ingredients are important. I used it with peace of mind as it's formulated with only safe ingredients. I also appreciate the refreshing mint scent, as I'm not a fan of strong perfume-like fragrance in cosmetics.
Cons
The only downside is that the mint ingredient can be slightly irritating. This may be a matter of personal preference, but I personally found the cooling sensation satisfactory. While this product is recommended for oily skin types, those with sensitive skin may find the mint a bit too much, so the non-mint version might be better suited for them.
Tip
Keeping it in the refrigerator during the summer would likely enhance its soothing effects!

1. Peel-off indicator for easy packaging & sorting! I'm quite interested in sorting waste, and I always ponder when disposing of empty bottles. When I first opened it, the indicators were there, so I thought it would be convenient for sorting. 2. Thick pad The Hwahae Trial Reviewer skin pad is thin, so it's hard to grab. This one is not easy to grab either, but it doesn't tear and has less pilling, and the thickness makes it relatively easy to handle. 3. Cooling sensation as mentioned in the name I felt a strong cooling sensation. After showering and my skin turning red, applying this to my face helped cool down and soothe my skin! I couldn't take a photo at the time, but I'll add one later. 4. Helps remove residue after cleansing and reduce blackheads Being a pad, it's used for wiping, right? Until last year, I always used cleansing oil, but then I heard that cleansing oil can be irritating, so I started using cleansing balm and occasionally cleansing oil. On days when sunscreen didn't seem to be fully removed, I used this pad, and yellow dust came off... Also, in the beginning after using this, I was shocked to see a lot of blackheads (I usually have very few), but when I checked my skin again on the 16th night, the blackheads were almost gone. I was careful to wipe my nose area when using this product, so that might have helped.
Cons
1. The cotton pad is too rough. It hurt when I wiped it on the back of my hand. I think I'll only use it on my nose about once a week. People with sensitive skin might want to avoid using this. 2. I'm not sure if it's effective for pores. Since I haven't used it for long, I'm not sure if it's not effective or if it's just too early to tell. 3. Irritating Being a pad, it does have some irritation on the skin. I think that's just the nature of pads. I'm using it about 2-3 times a week. 4. Usage experience (?) After wiping my face, there's a feeling of foam or bubbles left on my face. A bubbly sensation? I think it's from the essence, but I don't prefer this feeling. And sometimes my skin feels too wiped, like there's an oily feeling. That's probably because my skin is combination-oily. 5. No effect on skin troubles It seems to help with blackheads when used occasionally. My skin tends to get sensitive during seasonal changes, and this spring, I've had more breakouts. I'm not sure if it's from over-exfoliating or from my new skincare products (I've been changing a lot lately). 6. I forgot to mention the tweezers, so I'm editing this review 30 seconds after posting. The tweezers don't seem to stay hooked on the lid holder very well, and they ended up snapping in half. That was almost dangerous!
Tip
When my skin was reddened, applying this product helped calm the redness! If you're someone who gets along well with mint, I'd recommend trying this when your face is flushed.

As spring comes, my dead skin starts to build up, especially around my chin area where I wear a mask on and off. Gently wiping with the gauze-like soft side helps remove the dead skin, and finishing with the smooth reverse side keeps my skin moisturized and hydrated. It also thoroughly removes any remaining makeup residue after cleansing. The built-in tweezers inside the lid allow me to use it hygienically.
Cons
While it worked fine for me, those with thinner and more sensitive skin may need to be cautious when using the rougher gauze side.
Tip
It's great for an extra wipe-down after evening cleansing, when you've been wearing makeup. Don't forget to moisturize afterwards!

💚Hygienic packaging / Fragrance, refreshing sensation when used The one-touch cap was sturdy and the tweezers were good!! When you open the lid to use the pads, you can feel a refreshing fragrance and coolness! After using it, my face felt cool~, which made me feel good (there was no heat buildup, but rather a cooling sensation!) 💚The pads are thick! It's not a thin, rough or too soft pad!! It has the perfect thickness and texture for removing impurities and dead skin! The pads were not irritating to the skin, which I really liked◡̈ 💚Sebum and pore care! I'm writing this after 2 weeks of use! Wow, I really liked this product!!! Even though I only used it at night for 2 weeks, I could feel my skin becoming more refined and feeling cool+clean!! It helped me get rid of the dead skin, dust, and impurities in my pores!ㅎㅎ I'll have to use it consistently!
Cons
Hmm.. if I had to pick something, the fragrance might be divisive It's not a minty, menthol, cool refreshing~ kind of fragrance, but more of a strong MINT!!!! MENTHOL!!! kind of scent..? The fragrance has a strong presence!
