I had high expectations for this pad product, which can be used for both cleansing and exfoliation, and I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle and hydrating it is. The pads have the perfect thickness - not too thin or too thick. The embossed side is effective for exfoliating, while the soft side helps to smooth the skin texture. I usually use it once in the morning after cleansing, and it leaves my skin feeling refined and preps it well for makeup application. Even for my sensitive skin, this product did not cause any irritation or breakouts. After use, my skin does not feel tight, and there is a subtle, lingering hydration. As someone with combination and oily T-zone skin, I did experience some slight shine in that area, but this is more of a skin type issue rather than a shortcoming of the product. โฃ๏ธ Liked - Dual-sided pads for exfoliation and skin texture refinement in one step - Gentle formula suitable for sensitive skin - Calming and hydrating effect after cleansing - Improved makeup adherence when used in the morning โฃ๏ธ Overall - I strongly recommend this to anyone who wants an easy way to incorporate both exfoliation and hydration into their daily routine. If you have sensitive skin and want a gentle option, this will definitely satisfy. Even for my combination and oily skin type, this is a great daily pad to use without any concerns.
ConsRegrettable points - If you have oily skin, there may be slight T-zone shine - The moisturizing power does not last very long, so layering creams is essential

The toner pad was in a perfectly fine condition, which made me very pleased. Anyway, the shipping status was excellent. There was no damage, and the packaging was also excellent. I've always thought toner pads were lacking in terms of the cap and clip, but this product has a sturdy cap and a well-gripping clip. The pad's condition was not too thin or too thick, so when I applied it to my skin like a moisture pack, it didn't fall off, and when I wiped it off like a cleansing toner, there was no wrinkling. If I thought of using it daily, it wouldn't be a hassle, as it was satisfactory enough for daily use. I have extremely dry skin, and if I don't apply anything, my skin becomes flaky and itchy. I tested this product by not applying anything for about 3 days, and then I tried this toner pad, and I felt it was very effective in improving moisture. After wiping the rougher areas, I flipped it over and used the softer side to smooth out my skin texture, and immediately after, my skin felt hydrated. To test the toner pad's capabilities, I only used the toner pad and didn't apply anything else, and in the morning until the evening before leaving work, my skin didn't feel parched. I'm satisfied with it.
ConsIt was a bit disappointing, though I'm not sure if it was due to the moisture improvement, but over time it seemed to rise up a bit oily. I tried really hard to find other downsides, but this product feels like a 90 out of 100, so there wasn't really anything I could pinpoint.
TipI would not recommend it for oily skin types. However, for those like me whose skin cracks and feels hot in spring, fall, and winter, it seems like it would be absolutely wonderful.

When using pads, the most important factors I consider are the softness of the pad and the amount of essence, and the Purify Microbiome Toner Pad satisfied both of these conditions. After wiping with the embossed side and flipping it over to use the smooth side, the essence is still sufficient, so it is very moisturizing! Using just one pad feels as moisturizing as applying skin and essence, so I am very satisfied. In the summer, I can even just use one pad. This will be an excellent product for those looking for a moisturizing pad with a smooth finish.
ConsOily skin may find it too moisturizing and greasy.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is a subjective review written by the Hwahae Trial Reviewers. My skin type is combination, with an oily T-zone, dry cheeks, and sensitive areas. โ๏ธ One-line summary: This pad is like a mini facial pack! โ๏ธ Repurchase intention: Very high! I'd even like to try other products from the same brand. ๐ I usually only use toner pads for exfoliation, but this pad is exceptionally moisturizing. Normally, when I apply a toner pad to my cheeks, it dries out quickly and falls off. But the Metabiome Pad retains the toner for a long time, like a facial pack. As a result, it doesn't dry out quickly, which makes it perfect to apply while blow-drying my hair. ๐ Although it's called a toner pad, it feels more like an ampoule pad. After using it, my skin has a slightly sticky, post-facial-pack feel, and my skin looks amazing the next day! This toner pad alone is enough, so I don't need to use any other creams, which saves me time in my skincare routine. ๐คญ I'm not just saying this because I'm a Hwahae Trial Reviewer - I'm genuinely very satisfied, and I definitely plan to purchase it again!
ConsCompared to other toner pads, it is much more moisturizing, but I'm not sure if it's very effective at exfoliating. Usually after using a toner pad, the oily parts are left with a yellowish residue, but with this one, there was no such yellowish residue when I wiped it with an embossed cloth. However, the skin texture itself did improve after using the toner pad, so it's hard to say it's completely ineffective. There is a slight stickiness and oiliness after use, so it may feel heavy for those with oily skin.
TipI have dry cheeks, so I just apply it to my cheeks and let the rest of my hair dry! After that, I wipe my forehead and nose with the toner left on the pad. This way, those with combination skin can complete their skincare routine without needing to apply additional creams or the like. ๐

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe advantage of the toner pad is that it is easy to do a pack. In the case of this product, it was good for gently and quickly soothing the skin when the skin became dry. For dry-skinned people, the toner seems to leave a slight oiliness after being absorbed into the skin, which is also good for the surface moisture of the skin. Also, after doing a pack with this product, the inner moisture was well-maintained. However, if you have an oily or greasy skin, it may be fine to catch the inner dryness, but you should consider that there is an oiliness left and purchase it accordingly.
ConsI had a formula that left a slight oily feeling. I don't prefer products with a subtle stickiness, and this one felt a bit sticky due to the residual oil. Also, the fragrance is not particularly good, but it's not overpowering either, so it's just about usable. Furthermore, the adhesion to the cheeks is not extremely strong. I think if it were a bit thinner, it might have adhered to the skin better.
TipPersonally, I think using a toner pad for a face mask is the best. After cleansing, I applied one on each cheek. In my case, since my skin and nose tend to get dry, I tore one in half and applied it on my nose and chin, and the size fit perfectly. They say that leaving a face mask on for too long can actually cause the skin to lose moisture, so only do it for 10-15 minutes! Afterwards, I gently wiped my face with the side that was applied, to smooth out my skin texture. Finally, using it when drying my face can prevent my skin from becoming overly dry from the air!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. As a sensitive skin type, I was pleased that the product did not cause any breakouts after application. 2. The generous 60-sheet count and compact pad size allowed me to thoroughly cleanse my face while keeping the pad moist. 3. Despite being a toner, it provided moisture akin to an essence, leaving my skin feeling hydrated without dryness after application. 4. The toner pads were gentle enough not to irritate my sensitive skin. 5. The built-in applicator made it convenient and hygienic to use. 6. While I'm unsure if it contains oil, after applying the toner and moisturizer, my skin developed a luminous, dewy glow, similar to the effect of using an oil-based product.
ConsAs the weather has become warmer recently, I tried using the said toner pad, and even though I have dry skin, there was a slightly oily(?) feeling. So it seems like it might be a bit difficult to use in the summer, but it would likely be good to apply in the dry winter when my skin is dry!
TipI recommend that those of you who use basic products and get a bit shiny use them daily in the winter, and in the evening before bed during the transitional seasons or summer. In reality, when I applied them in the evening and woke up, my skin had a nice glow and the texture seemed to be improved, which I was satisfied with. I also recommend this to those of you who use toner as a face pack while applying makeup or drying your hair, as the moisture content is excellent.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAfter cleansing, I used this as the first step and it has a very moisturizing, watery essence-like texture. The pad is not too thick or too thin, with a comfortable thickness and softness that can be used without skin irritation. There is also an oily feel, so for my oily skin type, I could use it alone in the morning without any dryness. After using it in the evening, my skin tone looked brighter in the morning, so I felt it had a whitening effect as well.
ConsThis toner pad has an oily feel, so I used it in the order of toner pad, ampoule, and cream in the evening. But in the morning, I had breakouts on my T-zone and around my mouth. I have acne-prone oily skin, so when I use products that don't suit my skin, I tend to get pimples. Those with similar skin types should either reduce the number of steps or be very careful when using such products.
TipAfter showering, place it on both cheeks and dry your hair. It will not only soothe but also provide sufficient moisture. The used facial pads should not be discarded but applied to the elbows and knees as well. It has brightening and wrinkle-improving effects, so the skin tone also appears to be brightened.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsDespite being dry-skinned, I have recently been suffering from seborrheic dermatitis. ๐๐ปAbundant Essence The pads are soaked with essence, so there is leftover essence even after applying it to the face, allowing you to care for your neck as well. The versatility is really outstanding. After using up all the pads, you can also put in a separate cotton pad to use it further. :) ๐๐ปCost-Effectiveness I think it is a cost-effective product that can be used comfortably morning and evening. ๐๐ปIngredients When used consistently for more than a week, the pads alone provide sufficient moisture, making it a perfect product for the winter season. ๐๐ปHygienic Management and Convenience It comes with a tweezer, and there is a part on the top of the lid to attach the tweezer, allowing you to use the pads hygienically.
ConsI had to use all products carefully as my seborrheic dermatitis made my skin both dry and oily, causing it to fluctuate. While the product had the advantage of being moisturizing and hydrating, the oiliness did not improve my skin condition. Aside from the skin condition, one disappointing aspect was the inner lid clamp, which was too inconvenient to use, so I likely won't be using it.
TipDry and sensitive skin types are highly recommended without a doubt. If the product doesn't suit your face, I strongly recommend using it for body care instead.

ConsThe product feels too bulky and the pads are too thick, so they don't seem to adhere well to the face. However, the price is reasonable, so it's still okay.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe package was clean and good. The tweezers inside were firmly attached, which was nice. Other products had tweezers that would easily fall off, making them very inconvenient to use, so I ended up just using my hands. The scent was almost odorless. There was a lot of essence inside, so it didn't seem like it would dry out or lack moisture. The pads were thick and had different sides, so you could use the exfoliating side to remove dead skin and the soft side for a mask-like effect. I'm a bit sensitive to pads, but there were no trouble issues after using it. It seems good for using without any problems.
ConsThe feeling after cleansing is not completely clean and tidy, is it? The finish had a slightly oily feel to it.
TipWhen drying my hair, I found that placing the diffuser on my cheeks and forehead while drying prevents my face from getting hot and helps close my pores, which is great.
