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.
ConsThe 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.
TipKeeping it in the refrigerator during the summer would likely enhance its soothing effects!

Please take note of this. 1. The essence contains sufficient moisture, so it felt very hydrating! One side was a bit rough, while the other side was very soft, so it can be used on both sides. 2. I wouldn't recommend using it on areas with a lot of acne as it can be irritating. However, it's highly recommended for those who want to minimize pores! 3. The hygienic tweezers were great - it's very sanitary. 4. The size of the exfoliating pad was quite large, which I liked. And using it regularly made me feel like my dead skin was being properly removed.
ConsThe scent is a bit minty? It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance. The scent is quite strong, and I personally found it a bit too overpowering.
TipAfter cleansing with a face wash, you can use it as a toner to wipe away any residue. But please absolutely do not use it on areas with a lot of acne!

That was such a pleasant cooling sensation that I think I'll be reaching for it more often in the summer!^^ The scent was also like peppermint candy, which was personally to my liking. There's also a tweezer-like tool inside the lid, which makes it convenient to use.^ When I applied, it was advertised as 'pore-shrinking magic', so I was expecting it to reduce pore size a bit. But after using it for about 10 days, I'm not sure if it's had any effect yet... I'll need to use it for longer to see the results. The best feature of this pad is its amazing ability to sweep away impurities! The gauze was too scratchy and painful for me to use on my face, but the embossed side works great for cleansing! You all know the drill - use the pad to wipe your face, then your arms and legs too, right? It was fantastic!^^ I didn't experience any breakouts while using it, and it was sufficiently moisturizing. As a slightly dry-skinned person, there was no tightness on my face, and no irritation even after using it post-scrub! I'd recommend this moisturizing pad for those looking for good impurity removal.
ConsI can't really think of any downsides. The only thing would be that the gauze side was a bit too rough for me.
TipI didn't get to try this, but I think you could also use the pads as a face mask by sticking them onto your cheeks - it could work well as a substitute for a sheet mask!

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.ProsFirst of all, I felt that my skin texture was well-organized and had a tightening effect. The clean finish was also good. I gently rubbed the areas with high sebum production, such as the nose and chin, with the embossed back side, and used the embossed side to smooth the overall texture. That's why it seemed to apply makeup well. My face immediately calmed down and it seemed like my pores contracted. Although I couldn't see it visually, the texture seemed to change when I applied makeup, and the sebum production also seemed to decrease a bit.
ConsThe downside would be that it might be a bit irritating for sensitive skin. On the first day, I also found it a bit irritating, so I had a burning sensation and became reddish. But it disappeared in a day, and I think I used it well from the next time.
TipIf you store it in the refrigerator and use it, you'll feel refreshed in the morning and the makeup will apply well. And if you wipe the areas with high sebum production with the back side, it will come out yellowish..^^

Gauze pad One side is embossed, the other is gauze! I use the gauze side to cleanse my skin of dead skin and pores, focusing on the oily T-zone area, and the embossed side to refine my skin texture. Wiping with the gauze side really helps remove dead skin and sebum - it's great to use before makeup as it helps the base apply so much better. And wow, so much dust and impurities come off...ㅋㅋㅋ The gauze is quite rough, so I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive skin types...I was honestly quite surprised by how rough it was at first.ㅋㅋㅋ 2. Cooling sensation I tend to get flushed cheeks easily. Even when I get a little warm, my face heats up and turns red quickly, so the cooling sensation was really nice. 3. Hygiene Having the tweezers included is great for hygienic use. 4. Essence amount It's really generously soaked! Each pad is thoroughly damp, so it's not irritating to the skin. 5. Moisturizing The moisturizing effect was amazing! I didn't even need to apply a separate cream, as the moisture didn't evaporate. It was great to just swipe these when I was feeling lazy with my skincare routine.
Cons1. Tweezers The tweezers broke...ㅠㅠ So I've just been using a pair of clean tweezers from home, but it was frustrating when the included ones snapped. The plastic material seems quite brittle and prone to breaking. It's not a dealbreaker, but a bit disappointing. 2. Lid is stiff It was tough opening and closing the lid at first, though it's fine now after using it. I thought I had closed it properly, but a few hours later I noticed the right side wasn't fully shut.
TipNot a tip, but when I first started using it, there was a slight stinging sensation around my mouth area. But that went away after a few days of use. I'd recommend this to anyone with large pores, who wants daily exfoliation, or struggles with excess sebum. I think it'll be great to use in the summer especially. I'll definitely repurchase once I finish this set!

Hygienic Tweezer Storage Unlike other products that require a separate compartment to store the tweezers and opening the lid twice, this product has a built-in storage space above where you can conveniently keep the tweezers after use. This makes it very hygienic and easy to use. 2. Refreshing Mint Scent The cool mint scent will be perfect for the upcoming summer when my pores tend to get enlarged from wearing a mask all day. The cooling sensation is very refreshing. However, the scent may not be everyone's preference. 3. Double-Sided Pads One side is like a regular cotton pad (for cleansing, short masks), while the other side is more like a gauze texture for exfoliating. The pads are also quite thick and large, making them comfortable to use. 4. Effectiveness I'll need to use it for a longer period to fully evaluate, but after using it, I do feel a cleaner, more refined look with reduced pores. However, the blackheads will likely require consistent use to see improvements. It may also be a bit irritating for very sensitive skin.
ConsThe mint and salicylic acid ingredients can be a bit harsh around the eye area, so you need to be careful when using it there. The scent is also quite strong. Because of this, it's probably better to use it 2-3 times a week, focusing on the cheeks and nose area, rather than as a daily product. On days when your skin is more sensitive, it may cause some redness.
TipStoring and using this product in a cool environment like a cosmetic fridge can help provide an even more refreshing and effective pore-refining experience.

I tried the pads on other body parts as well, and only the cheek area with wider pores had a cooling sensation!! It feels refreshingly invigorating 👍
Cons★Sensitive Due to the invigorating sensation, it hurts a bit even if I just lightly wipe it before it's fully absorbed.. But it doesn't turn red or cause flushing at all! The only thing is that you must use the pads after cleansing! (I used the pads without reading the instructions and then cleansed, and it hurt quite a bit...)
