The pads seem to have a slight irritating effect. They're not as gentle as some other options. The eucalyptus oil might not suit everyone and could potentially be irritating for some skin types.

The essence is generously soaked into the pads, making them perfect for use as a mask. The formula isn't sticky or heavy, so it's comfortable to use both day and night. The pads are large and feature two textures - embossed and smooth. I appreciated the thoughtful detail of including a clip in the package lid. It's great for daily use without causing any skin reactions.

<How I Use It>
- Not daily, but when I feel skin troubles coming on

1. Spritz with mist

2. Take out two pads and apply the soft side to the T-zone (it's so large it covers the face periphery too)

3. Pat remaining serum on forehead, nose, and chin

4. Wait about 10 minutes, then wipe with the textured side

5. Don't discard the used pads - wipe your neck, arms, and chest where you might get acne. It's great for body use too!

I feel like I've only praised it... but I'll repurchase even if I wasn't part of The Hwahae Testers. As a pad enthusiast who's tried over 20 different types, I think I've found my holy grail.

!!The Hwahae Testers Review!!

✅✅<Reasons I Loved It>✅✅

1. Effectiveness

- Significant acne improvement (small bumps, mask-related)
I've been struggling with small acne bumps on my T-zone and face periphery due to frequent makeup use and mask-wearing. Even after dermatologist visits and aesthetic treatments, these persistent bumps kept returning. I tried various skincare products, but nothing seemed to help. It might sound exaggerated, but since using these pads, I've noticed a remarkable improvement in my T-zone and chin acne! While mask-contact areas are still problematic, and existing acne and scars take time to heal, the fact that no new acne has appeared in two weeks of use is a huge win for me.

Additionally, I discovered that the main ingredient, eggplant extract, is excellent for problematic, blemish-prone skin. It offers four key benefits: 1. Blemish care (skin soothing) 2. Skin condition management 3. Sebum control 4. Management of dead skin cells in hair follicles (improving resistance to external factors). No wonder my acne improved!

- Effective exfoliation
My skin is quite thin and prone to redness with harsh scrubs or exfoliants. However, using just exfoliating toners led to clogged pores and small bumps on my nose and mask area. After using this product morning and evening for two weeks, with just one wash-off mask, I noticed less dead skin, reduced redness, and improved makeup application.

- Skin soothing
Lately, wearing a mask for extended periods has led to excess sebum production and skin irritation (redness in T-zone, nose, and chin after removing makeup). However, after cleansing, when I apply this product like a mask to troubled areas with a mist, it cools and completely calms my skin!

- Sebum control (arm and chest acne)
As a home fitness enthusiast, I've noticed how post-workout skincare can make or break your complexion. Excessive sebum production can lead to more skin troubles than before exercising. I started getting acne on my arms and chest after beginning my workout routine. Using the same pads I use on my face to wipe these areas, along with other blemish products, significantly reduced the number of new small bumps. The large pad size is particularly convenient for body use.

2. Differentiating factors from other pads

- Pad size
As you can see in the attached photo, these pads are even larger than Dr.G Blemish Clear Cream! They feel about 1.2 times larger than other pads I've used. The larger size means more serum absorption, greater facial coverage, quicker application time, and less irritation compared to similar products from other brands.

- Ample serum
When you receive it, you'll see it's almost overflowing with serum... At first, I thought it was like using a cotton pad soaked in toner!

- Price
70 pads for an original price of 29,500 won, with a discounted price of 26,500 won on the official website - it's a great deal. Even if it were the same price and quantity as other brands, considering the packaging, samples, pad size, and serum quantity, it's much more cost-effective.

- VEGAN
They use vegan-certified pads! With increasing environmental concerns and focus on vegan cosmetics, this seems like a very thoughtful product.

- Completely airtight
The pad container has a double lid, with a translucent plastic inner lid. When you press the center part firmly, it releases the air inside the container, creating a perfect seal. This prevents accidents like serum leakage or drying out over time.

- Tweezers
Wow, they really thought this through - there are tweezers attached to the middle lid! The double lid already makes it very hygienic, but the tweezers' placement is genius. It's much more sanitary and convenient for storage, and you won't risk dropping them when closing the lid.

3. Packaging

- Eco-friendly
Following the vegan theme, all packaging and box cushioning materials are biodegradable (it felt like I ordered from LUSH). In these times, such environmentally conscious aspects really make me want to continue supporting the brand.

Please, try these pads before applying makeup in summer, or after water activities when your skin feels sensitive. They'll soothe your skin faster than other pads. I'm serious. It's the truth.

➰Too little essence in the pads
When I first received the pads, there was so little essence that I worried it might evaporate and leave the pads dry before I could use them all. 

➰The pads aren't particularly soft (but not irritating either❌)
As someone with sensitive skin, the softness of pads is crucial for me. Unfortunately, these aren't exceptionally soft. Honestly, regardless of the amount of essence, if they were just a bit softer, they'd be my holy grail product.
The texture is similar to average pads available in the market.
It's just that my super sensitive skin craves extreme softness.

✨Perfect product for flushed skin during hot summer days✨

As someone with acne-prone skin that easily flares up, I tend to switch products quickly. Especially in summer when my face heats up and becomes more sensitive.

➰Using while drying hair
The pads aren't super saturated, so rather than using them as an overnight mask, I apply them before makeup while blow-drying my hair. 
Makeup applies so much better than with my usual skincare routine!
These pads provide just the right amount of hydration without being overly moisturizing, so makeup doesn't pill - it's perfect!!

➰Using on reddened skin after treatments
I get a lot of dermatological treatments, and in summer the burning and tingling sensations seem to last longer. The cooling minty sensation of these pads helps bring down skin temperature, so I applied them frequently the day after treatments. (I avoided using them immediately after treatment to prevent potential irritation!) The redness seems to subside faster.

While one pad alone can't be expected to fully soothe post-treatment skin, I use them every morning before makeup and they work wonders! They lower facial temperature and combat deep dryness, making makeup application a breeze! I've tried many hydrating pads, but this is the first with a cooling effect, which I find really appealing and use diligently.

Try decanting some into a small ziplock bag to carry with you for touch-ups. It's especially useful in summer when makeup tends to melt away faster. Simply wipe off any smudged areas, let it absorb, then reapply your makeup. The result is even more beautiful than your initial application!

1. The cooling effect may cause slight irritation for some
   - This could be a plus for those who enjoy a refreshing feel, like me
2. The price point
   - However, it becomes quite reasonable when purchased during sales

1. Hygienic and sleek packaging
2. High-quality ingredients
3. Great for dead skin cell removal
4. Doesn't cause blemishes
5. Makeup applies smoothly after use
6. Cooling sensation, perfect for those prone to skin flushing
7. Contains just the right amount of essence

There weren't really any downsides, but if I had to pick something, it would be the price point. However, even considering that, it seems like a price that's manageable to purchase during sales or promotions without much strain.

I had the opportunity to try this product as part of The Hwahae Testers program. First off, the main container is generously filled with essence, so it seems like you'll be able to use moistened pads until the very end. The pads are quite large, which I prefer over smaller ones, so that's a plus for me. The scent is a subtle blend of tea tree and a mild menthol fragrance. It's not overpowering, so even someone like me who's sensitive to scents could use it comfortably. There weren't any particular downsides, and true to its name as a blemish pad, it seemed to help calm my blemishes to some extent. As someone with sensitive, blemish-prone skin, I usually stick to products with cica, tea tree, or ingredients that help with acne. Perhaps that's why I felt comfortable using the Victory Blemish Clear Pads. I often use pads for exfoliating dead skin cells, and after going out or when my face feels hot, I'd place the Victory pads on my face like a mask. I'm grateful I got to experience such a good product.

For an extra soothing effect, try storing these in the refrigerator. The cool temperature will help calm your skin quickly.

The textured side might feel a bit harsh for those with super sensitive skin.

▪️Overall: Great for exfoliation, refining skin texture, and hydration. Recommended for all skin types (except sensitive skin).

▫️Pads
These vegan-certified embossed pads have a textured side that's effective for removing dead skin cells and sebum, and refining skin texture. The smooth side is gentle, allowing you to choose the appropriate side based on your skin condition. The large 7cm diameter pads are convenient, requiring just a few swipes for thorough cleansing.

▫️Essence Quantity
The pads are generously soaked in a water-based essence, ensuring they stay moist until the last one. After cleansing your face, you can even pat the essence in, and there's enough left to treat your neck and elbows too!

▫️Exfoliation
I used the textured side on my T-zone and chin, and the smooth side on my cheeks. My skin feels softer than when I don't use these pads. It's especially effective on the sides of my nose where makeup tends to cling - there's noticeably less buildup now. The refreshing scent is likely due to the BHA.

▫️Hydration and Moisturization
The lightweight, water-based formula preps the skin for better absorption of subsequent skincare products. It provides ample hydration, and if you pat in the essence, it even moisturizes. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I only need to apply an emulsion on my cheeks after using these pads. Those with oily skin might find the pads sufficient on their own.

▫️Packaging
The packaging is truly impressive. There's a built-in slot in the inner cap to store the tweezers that come with the pads, preventing loss. Plus, there's a handle for easy opening. The inner cap seals so well that you can turn it upside down without leakage, making it perfect for travel.

During this sweltering summer, I recommend keeping these in the refrigerator and using them as a cool toner pack.

For gentle exfoliation, it's best to use every other day to minimize skin irritation.

I suggest alternating between the different textured sides of the pad, using each as appropriate for your skin's needs!

The container feels a bit large compared to the pad size. It takes up quite a bit of space on my vanity. Fortunately, I like purple!

Let me start by sharing my skin type:
- Thin skin that easily reddens
- Extremely dry, lacking moisture even in midsummer
- Prone to blemishes and small bumps with even a little stress
- Sensitive to chemical ingredients

I've been using this product daily from the moment I received it until today, the last day for reviews. I loved the mood-lifting, subtle purple packaging and paper wrapping.

The included tongs are a great feature. I've always worried about hygiene when using other pads, but the Freeup Clear Pads come with built-in tongs for clean and easy use.

The samples will be perfect for travel. Even without samples, you all know you can put some in a small ziplock bag to use as a handy toner substitute, right?

The subtle fragrance makes for a more pleasant experience than unscented products, with a slightly cool sensation that I think most people will enjoy.

Each pad is saturated with moisture, leaving my face and neck feeling hydrated even after wiping.

I appreciate that the pads have different textures on each side, allowing for versatile use - one side for exfoliating after cleansing, and the other for toner pack application.

Despite my ultra-sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes while using this product. In fact, I noticed a reduction in facial redness, which has encouraged me to use it frequently.

- I've included the drawbacks along with the positive points above.

- Design:
The packaging is so pretty that it doesn't clash with my room decor - I love that! The container itself is larger than usual, taking up more space, but it feels solid and sturdy. After removing the seal, I noticed a clip holder on the inner lid. When I've used other products without this feature, the spatula would move around, so this thoughtful detail shows how carefully the product was designed.

- User experience:
When I first used it, I was pleasantly surprised by the cool, minty herbal scent - it doesn't smell like typical cosmetics. Not only does it smell nice, but after wiping my face with the pad, I felt a subtle, refreshing coolness. At first, I thought I might be imagining it, but every time I use it, my skin feels gently soothed. I think this is the product's most distinctive feature compared to others.

The formula itself has a perfect consistency - not too heavy or light. If I had to describe it, I'd say it's a lightweight, hydrating texture that's not sticky at all. When I used it instead of morning cleansing on dry skin, the pad seemed to dry out quickly. However, when used after cleansing, I didn't notice the pad drying out at all! 

I didn't experience any blemishes or irritation - it seemed to suit my skin gently. However, I checked the lowest price on Naver, and it was 28,220 won. I think it's pricier compared to other products. As someone who values cost-effectiveness, I might choose other products since there are many similarly good options at lower prices. If this were more affordable, I'd definitely consider repurchasing!

Also, I thought the paper pouch that came with it was a sheet mask, but it turned out to be individually wrapped pads. They'll be perfect for travel - thank you!

I can't think of any particular downsides, but as with any pads, be careful not to rub too hard as it might cause irritation. Gentle application is key.

There's no sticky feeling, and I liked that the pads are sufficiently soaked in the solution. The double-lid design and included tweezers make it hygienic and likely to stay fresh for longer. If you leave it on a blemish for 10 minutes, you'll find it nicely matured by the next morning! When applied, it gives a cool, minty sensation - I personally love this, but I imagine some people might not be fans.

Keep them in the fridge for a refreshing exfoliation after cleansing! I also use the used pads as a face mask by leaving them on my skin.

The container is a bit too roomy for the pads. Also, I personally prefer square pads for leaving on the skin, rather than round ones. These are the only drawbacks, but I'll definitely repurchase!

My skin type is oily but dehydrated, feeling tight even in summer. My sister, who tried this with me, has super sensitive skin struggling with adult acne. 

1. Packaging: I loved it from the moment it arrived. True to its vegan brand, they minimized plastic and vinyl, using only essential materials. The package arrived without plastic tape, which was impressive from the start.

2. Container and tweezers: Hygiene is a major concern when using toner pads. Free:up's toner pads come with tweezers right under the lid, allowing you to pick up pads without touching them. I love these dedicated tweezers that can be attached to the container to prevent loss.

3. User experience: Refreshingly cool and pleasant!

Clearing toners for blemishes, dead skin cells, pores, and sebum control usually have a cool, tingling sensation. I particularly dislike this feeling, and my sensitive-skinned sister fears toner pads as even slight tingling causes breakouts.

With its gentle ingredients and dual-textured pads, it effectively removes sebum. It's great for cooling down after sun exposure or swimming, and when you need a double cleanse. I love the cool, refreshing feeling that's gentle enough for exfoliation and blemish-prone skin.

The best part about these toner pads? After wiping, you can place them on your cheeks for simultaneous exfoliation and hydration. There's no oiliness, and the pads are large and round enough to cover each cheek perfectly when used as a mask.

These pads are generously infused with serum. After using both sides on your face, you can use any remaining serum on areas of concern like your chest or shins for extra hydration and care.

- The size might be a bit inconvenient for carrying around.
- Compared to other pads, the serum seems to absorb into the skin a bit more slowly.

- The pads are soaked with ample serum, leaving your skin feeling hydrated even after wiping.
- There's a built-in tweezer for easy pad handling.
- The embossed side doesn't feel irritating on the skin when wiping.
- The pads are large enough for multi-use on both face and body.

1. It's rather ordinary
   - This is both a pro and a con... truly unremarkable
2. The texture feels slightly heavy for summer use
   - While not sticky, it doesn't absorb quickly, which might be hit or miss for some
3. Due to the somewhat heavy feel, if you wipe the remaining essence on areas like your neck, it can be a bit...

Like others have suggested, it might be good to try storing it in the fridge before use!

As one of The Hwahae Testers, I'm writing this review after being selected to try the product.

1. The packaging is sleek and attractive
2. Comes with built-in tweezers
3. Features a double cap and a convenient handle for easy lifting
4. Generous amount of essence(?)
5. The pads don't easily produce lint and aren't particularly irritating
   - Some pads start to fray after one or two uses, but these held up well even after multiple uses
6. A single pad provides enough moisture (personal opinion)
