When I first used it, it was truly a game-changer. As a quick mask, the pad adhered perfectly to my skin, and my face would instantly glow. It did wonders for my complexion, which was incredibly satisfying. I was dealing with deep dryness at the time, but on days I used this quick mask, my skin felt much less parched.
ConsHowever, after the reformulation, while it might have improved for some, I found it a bit disappointing. It felt lighter on the skin. I'm not savvy with group buys, so I found it a bit pricey compared to other masks, and post-reformulation, I felt there might be other serums or pads that could replace it. I have a long commute, so I used it during that time. I preferred the pre-reformulation pads as I liked to leave them on for absorption, but I understand the new version might work better for others in different situations. Previously, I thought it might feel heavy for those with oily skin, but after the change, it seemed suitable for a wider range of skin types. Even though I used a few more bottles after the reformulation, I didn't feel the same satisfaction as before, so I gradually used it less. I think the current Abib pads might suit combination or oily skin types better than very dry skin, and they're still great for evening out skin texture. However, with many similar products now available at lower price points, I'm not sure about its competitiveness in the market.
TipWhen using, the pads are incredibly thin and soaked in essence, so they're much better suited as a quick mask rather than for wiping. In terms of user experience for quick masks, these pads were truly the best I've ever tried. Even now, I can't find anything that adheres to the skin as well as these did.

I apply it, then dry my hair a bit, and follow up with my basic skincare routine.
Cons1. Well, the price is... haha 2. You have to wait for it to absorb completely

However, I was pleasantly surprised! The essence doesn't drip, and despite being thin, the pad's structure is sturdy. It holds the essence well and adheres perfectly to the skin. There are no gaps between the pad and the skin, which I really appreciate. The excellent adhesion makes me want to repurchase. Hydration and Brightening: Due to the tight review period for The Hwahae Testers, I've only used it for about 3 days, so I can't really comment on the brightening effects. However, I think the hydration is excellent, though absorption could be improved a bit. When you leave it on like a mask, your skin develops a beautiful glow. Packaging: The container for the pads is quite sturdy, and it comes with a pair of tweezers, making it convenient to use. Other: The scent is very subtle, almost fragrance-free.
ConsAfter removing the pad, there's a bit of stickiness left on the skin, and I found the absorption to be somewhat lacking.
