Pros
First off, I appreciated that the lid is a flip-top rather than a screw-on, which makes it convenient to use. The scent is a bit sharp, like fresh-cut grass? It might be a love-it-or-hate-it situation for some! The included tweezers are great for picking up one pad at a time, and the pads themselves are thick and generously sized, which makes application easy. With its oil-free and cooling sensation, it should work well for oily skin types without any issues. While I didn't experience any dramatic skin-soothing effects during use, I can say that it didn't cause any blemishes or irritation at all. I think it would be perfect to keep in the fridge during the height of summer!
Cons
However, it's quite disappointing for winter use. The hydration level is seriously lacking... While it feels cool and moist right after application, that sensation disappears almost instantly. It might work well as an exfoliating pad for dead skin cells, but relying on this product alone for moisturizing is completely unrealistic. Unless you have extremely oily skin, I'd suggest avoiding it in winter. Also, the texture of the pads is a bit rough. This might vary from person to person, but I wish they were a bit softer.
Tip
It's absolutely necessary to follow up with a highly moisturizing serum and cream!

Pros
The toner pad container is truly revolutionary! The lid was already super convenient, but now the tweezers are even stored inside the lid!! I'm impressed♡ The pads are thin and adhere well to the skin, making them perfect for a quick soothing mask. As soon as I put the pad on my skin, I thought, 'This is definitely a mask!' Plus, the toner ingredients are gentle and non-irritating, so it's worry-free to use.
Cons
The pads are so saturated with essence that it actually runs off them? The scent is a bit unique, just unfamiliar to me. I'm usually quite sensitive to fragrances - even when I want to wear perfume, I have to spray it in the air and walk through the mist. But this one was fine, no aversion at all.

Pros
Volume: The pads are super moist due to the generous amount! I loved that there's way more essence than typical pads. Hydration: Hydration explosion!! It's incredibly moisturizing due to the abundance of hydration. When my skin suddenly feels hot, I immediately place this pad on - the moistness quickly gives a cooling sensation. Skin texture: Nothing beats this for smoothing skin texture. It's amazing... So convenient, just a quick swipe and your skin texture is instantly refined! Sensitivity: Although I have super sensitive skin, this worked well for me! The ingredients seem gentle!
Cons
Soothing: It wasn't effective for soothing. To be honest, there are hardly any products with dramatic effects on blemishes...
Tip
After cleansing, I place two pads on my cheeks for about five minutes. During that time, I dry my hair! After five minutes, instead of removing the pads right away, I use them to smooth out my skin texture. This makes makeup adhere perfectly! Also, before bed, I apply the pads for five minutes, then smooth out my skin texture and apply my skincare routine. This keeps my skin feeling more moisturized than usual for longer!

Pros
First off, I loved how clean the finish was. It left my skin feeling fresh and light without any stickiness or residue. The scent was reminiscent of xylitol gum, which wasn't off-putting at all. The case design was super convenient - no need to twist, just flip the lid. Plus, the built-in clip inside the lid made for hygienic application. The pads themselves were incredibly soft and gentle, saturated with plenty of toner. I doubt you'll ever worry about them drying out. As a toner pad, it effectively removed dead skin cells. Being oily-skinned, I found it provided sufficient hydration without overdoing it. The thin pads adhered well to the skin, making them easy to use without falling off. They seemed to have a calming effect too - after cleansing, they quickly soothed any irritation. Overall, I'm really impressed!
Cons
On the downside, the toner pads are so thin that they tend to stretch out in the direction you wipe, even with gentle use. This can make them a bit floppy when you're trying to place them on your face. While the softness is great, the thinness is a bit disappointing. Occasionally, they'd tear when picking them up with the clip. I did notice a pimple or two popping up unexpectedly - can't say for sure if it's due to this product, but it suggests it might not be a perfect match for my skin. It's not a major breakout, just a spot here and there. If you have oily and sensitive skin, you might want to be cautious. I think there might be some pore-clogging ingredients. The scent might be bothersome for those sensitive to fragrances. It's like finding a pack of xylitol gum that's been sitting in your car's glove compartment all summer and opening it in winter - that kind of cold, gummy smell.
Tip
Unless your skin is extremely dry, I think one pad could tackle some level of deep dryness. It worked quite well for me. When using the pads, don't wipe too hard to avoid stretching them. Gently wipe and then leave them on particularly dry areas - it's great for preventing itching from dryness. Personally, I'd recommend using a serum for deep hydration along with these pads. Just using the pads and then jumping straight to cream doesn't seem to address deep dryness effectively. This might seem obvious, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Pros
The pads are soaked with toner, so they never dry out. The included tweezers allow for hygienic use, and the lid design makes it easy to open and close, making it convenient to use. The thin pads are great for leaving on as a mask for soothing purposes. They adhere well to the skin, so they don't fall off even when you're doing other things. There's also a cooling effect that seems to help reduce heat in the skin.
Cons
The scent is slightly herbal? I'm not sure if it's the cica smell or not, but it's not unscented, which is a bit disappointing. It seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. It's not overpowering, but there's a distinct, somewhat pungent smell. Also, there's a slight tingling sensation. It doesn't feel irritating or stinging per se, but whether it's because of the scent or not, I felt a bit of tingling when applying it.
Tip
Occasionally flipping the pads upside down helps maintain moisture throughout without any dry spots. They don't drip or leak either.

Pros
The toner pads are generously soaked, making them incredibly hydrating. The large quantity is great for liberal use. The included tongs make it convenient to separate each pad. The cooling effect is wonderful. The product is gentle, so I didn't experience any blemishes during use.
Cons
The lid is a bit stiff when opening and closing. This is a personal preference, but the scent didn't suit me. I would have preferred it to be fragrance-free.
Tip
I keep it on my desk for use. The product has a great cooling effect, and since I received it in winter, it felt quite cold. It might be even better to use in summer. Since temperatures vary in different homes, if you want an extra cooling sensation, you could try putting it in the refrigerator for a short while before use.
