While the effects aren't immediate, I wake up the next morning to noticeably clearer skin! That's why I'm using it sparingly. The pads stay so moist that even after leaving them on for a while, they haven't dried out when you remove them. For going out, I gently swipe the textured side across my face for a light exfoliation, which helps smooth out my skin texture!
ConsAlthough it doesn't adhere perfectly to the skin, which can be a bit inconvenient, it's still a product I can't do without!

As someone with dry and sensitive skin, I usually avoid pads, but these weren't rough at all and caused almost no irritation. The gauze cotton gently exfoliated my dead skin cells, and I found it particularly effective when I softly massaged areas prone to congestion. It was great for a quick and easy exfoliation. Being a first essence pad, it didn't leave my skin feeling dry, and the hydration was quite impressive.
ConsAs someone who doesn't use this daily, I find the lack of an inner seal slightly inconvenient. The lid doesn't provide an airtight seal either, it just closes. This makes me a bit concerned about hygiene and the pads potentially drying out.

I got into using pads after trying the acorn pads from Olive Young, which led me to try this product. My skin type is combination dehydrated, and while I rarely get acne, I do experience occasional breakouts on my chin during hormonal cycles. Pros: 1. Ingredients: No harmful components for the skin. This alone is quite reassuring. 2. Softness of the gauze pad: Unlike most exfoliating pads that can be harsh, this one glides gently, causing less irritation. I'm very satisfied with this. 3. Size of the gauze pad: It's generously sized, covering even my wide forehead well. There's plenty of essence too - enough to cleanse the entire face with some left over. I use the excess on areas like my elbows. 4. Scent: Perhaps due to the gentle ingredients, there's no artificial or irritating fragrance. It's very comfortable to use. 5. Packaging: It comes with a separate tweezer, so you don't have to touch the gauze directly. This allows for hygienic use.
ConsCons: 1. Gentleness: This is both a pro and a con. It doesn't remove dead skin cells very effectively. 2. Soothing effect: I didn't see significant benefits in this area. Also, as someone with combination dehydrated skin, I didn't feel much hydration even after using the gauze.
TipSince there's plenty of essence, try using it on your neck or arms as well as your face. The photo shows a size comparison.

I was thrilled to see they released it in pad form. I was so curious about it and luckily got selected as one of The Hwahae Testers to try it out. I already loved the original product, but as it was an essence type, it felt like it evaporated quickly, which was a bit disappointing. However, in pad form, it seems to stay on the skin longer than the original, which I found very satisfying. The fragrance-free formula means even those with sensitive noses can use it comfortably! It also has an exfoliating effect, so if you place it on your cheeks, let it absorb all over, and then go to sleep, you'll wake up to experience honey-smooth skin the next morning. I highly recommend this product!
ConsAs with all pad-type products, the issue is that when you try to pick up one pad, several stick together. Even though there's a little tool provided, you end up having to use your fingers.
TipAs I mentioned above, its dead skin cell removal effect is outstanding. If you use this pad the night before an important day, your makeup will apply beautifully.

It exfoliates well without being too harsh on the skin. I love that you can store the tongs in the lid - it's so convenient! I used to find it annoying to clean the tongs every time with other pads, but this is so much easier. The essence is fantastic, as expected from a first essence. My skin feels clearer, and I haven't experienced any blemishes.
ConsThere's absolutely nothing to complain about. I can't think of a single drawback!
TipWhen you're too lazy to apply toner, you can use these to wipe your face or leave them on as a mask. It works wonderfully!

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.ProsI've been using First Essence for a while, and I was thrilled to try it through the Hwahae event! The pad size is large, similar to Skinfood's carrot pads, covering the entire cheek with just one sheet. It's great that it comes with both cotton and embossed types, allowing you to choose between exfoliating dead skin cells or boosting hydration. The pads are generously soaked in essence, making them perfect for use as an exfoliating toner or a leave-on skin pack. I love how convenient and easy they are to use, and the built-in tweezers are a nice touch. This product is definitely a holy grail and a staple in my routine. The quality is so impressive that I'd happily repurchase it when I run out!
ConsThe built-in tweezers are a bit tricky to use. You have to align them with the hole in the center in a specific way, which makes attaching and detaching them quite challenging. The struggle with the tweezers often leads me to just use my hands instead.
TipAfter cleansing, if you apply these as a skin pack and follow up with a moisturizer, your skin feels incredibly hydrated!

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 off, this product can both hydrate and exfoliate dead skin cells. I was really struck by how gentle and soft this particular one felt. The exfoliating side isn't too rough, so it's not harsh on the skin, while the opposite side feels even smoother and silkier than other products. There was definitely a sense that it's good quality. What's more, the pads are larger than expected, leaving plenty of serum even after use - great for applying to areas like elbows! I also love that the tweezers can be stored separately, which is hygienic, and they have a protruding part that makes them easy to grip, reducing the risk of dropping.
ConsThere weren't really any disappointing aspects that I can think of! If I had to pick something, maybe those with smaller faces might find there's excess serum left over.

First impression: The container was brimming with essence, and the pads had two different sides. One side was gauze-like, perfect for removing dead skin cells, while the other was smooth, ideal for refining skin texture. The included tongs made it hygienic to use. Pad size: The pads are generously sized, allowing for a great toner mask experience using just three pads for the forehead and both cheeks! Blemishes and small bumps: Personally, I noticed a reduction in small bumps on my skin! While existing blemishes didn't disappear completely, I didn't experience any new breakouts during use. Hydration: My skin felt deeply hydrated. Applying a light essence afterward locked in the moisture, leaving my face feeling plump and hydrated! Highly recommended for those with dry, combination, or combination dehydrated skin. Skin clarity: After leaving the pads on like a mask, my skin looked noticeably clearer upon removal! Overall rating (out of 5 stars): Reduction of small bumps: 4/5 Hydration: 5/5 Skin clarity: 3/5 Brightening: 2/5 Pad size: 5/5 Repurchase intention: 6/5 (Absolutely!)
ConsWhile it's great that the container is full of essence, it's disappointing that it leaks easily even when tilted slightly.
TipUsing it as a mask before makeup really enhances your makeup application!

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.ProsPackaging: I loved the clean white container and its neat opening mechanism. I was surprised by its larger-than-expected size, but it comes with tongs inside, making it even more hygienic to use! Pads: The textured side is great for removing dead skin cells, while the soft side is perfect for evening out the complexion. I didn't experience much irritation as I don't have super sensitive skin, but those with sensitive skin should be careful with the textured side! The pads are quite large, which is great for covering a larger area when using as a mask. Usage: I often used it as an exfoliating toner, but given the pad size, it seems more suitable for masking. With its generous essence content, it might be better suited for the drier winter months rather than summer. Essence: The pads are soaked in essence, making them perfect for masking! While it might not be ideal for those with extremely oily skin, it was fantastic for my combination dehydrated skin! I think I'll use it even more in winter. Scent: The fragrance isn't overpowering, so it should be suitable for everyone!
ConsWhen using as an exfoliating toner, you need to let the skin absorb more of the essence. Also, the container is quite large, which might be inconvenient for traveling. Other than that, everything was great! I'll probably repurchase.

I've always used exfoliating pads, so this was a refreshing change. I loved how gentle it felt - it made me realize I might have been using the wrong pads all along! There's plenty of essence in each pad, and best of all, it comes with a separate compartment for the tweezers, making it super hygienic to use.
ConsThere wasn't anything I disliked, but if I had to nitpick, I'd say the scent wasn't quite to my taste.
