Those little tweezers always seem to vanish into thin air... The toner is generously filled, so when you use it, it literally drips down the pad. You can even see the toner brimming inside the pad container! Plus, the pads have different textures on each side. Using the softer side is super gentle, so you don't have to worry about irritation. As for the scent, my sense of smell isn't the best, so I couldn't quite pinpoint it. But the fact that it didn't bother me while using it probably means it's neither unpleasant nor overpowering.
ConsI'm not sure about its soothing effects. The area where I applied it became quite inflamed, and later I noticed some blemishes... little bumps had popped up. At first, I thought it might be due to lack of sleep during exam period, but when I switched back to my usual toner and saw improvement, I realized that wasn't the case. I've never used Houttuynia Cordata products before, so I'm not sure if it's the herb or just the cosmetic ingredients that didn't agree with me. Also, as someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found this toner pad alone to be slightly drying. I imagine it would have been even more so in winter. For these reasons, I don't really have any intention to repurchase. But for those who find it suits them, it could be a great product!

The pads are quite thick and the embossing is deep, making them difficult to tear by hand. If you prefer to cut them in half, you'll need scissors! Since exfoliating toners can be irritating for my skin, I used this as a toner pack. I incorporated it into my night routine, applying it after my regular toner and removing it after 3-5 minutes. Using it only in the evening worked best for me, as using it twice daily caused some texture on my skin. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, using it as a toner pack really helped combat deep dryness! The best part? There's a dedicated space inside the container for the pad tweezers! Some other products come with tweezers or spoons, but it's always tricky to store them hygienically. This feature deserves a million stars!
ConsWhen I used it both morning and night, it seemed to irritate my skin and cause some blemishes. I think using it once in the evening is sufficient.
TipUsing this as a toner pack could be great for those with combination dehydrated skin to address deep dryness!

The scent is mild, almost fragrance-free, and not irritating. ✔️Absorption: Given its water-like consistency, the absorption was quite good. ✔️Effectiveness: Perhaps due to my combination skin, using just one pad didn't leave my skin feeling dry. It lives up to its name in terms of hyaluronic soothing properties. ✔️Other notes: The size is adequate, large enough to cover one cheek. While these are common advantages found in many other pads, for me, the drawbacks of this product outweighed its benefits.
Cons1. Not recommended for sensitive skin First off, I wouldn't recommend this for those with sensitive skin. (It's not that I'm incompatible with Houttuynia Cordata as an ingredient, since I do well with Houttuynia Cordata soap) ❓Why?? Recently, my skin was sensitive due to lack of sleep, and when I applied this pad, my skin felt a burning sensation. You can see some redness in the photo.. I experienced some irritation. While it didn't cause additional blemishes, I think it could be potentially irritating for those with sensitive skin. 2. Packaging issues It's extremely difficult to open. As you can see in the second photo, while trying to open it, it tore halfway through... I just gave up. I'm not sure if it's designed to prevent moisture evaporation, but it's frustratingly hard to open.
TipThe pads seem too large to use as an exfoliating toner, but they could work well as a face mask.

Definite hydration and soothing effect! While using the pads, I could feel my skin becoming sufficiently hydrated. Although I noticed a calming effect, it seemed slightly less impressive compared to the hydration. 2. The scent is pleasant! I keep the pads on for about 3-5 minutes, and the fragrance during that time is subtle and enjoyable. 3. Great for dead skin cell care! I don't use a separate exfoliator, just these pads for maintenance! It seems very effective! 4. The size is just right, making them easy to apply! Unlike sheet masks that sometimes lift in places, these adhere perfectly without gaps, which is very convenient.
Cons1. Opening the package is tricky! When trying to open the lid, it was quite difficult. I even cut my hand a bit while trying to peel it off. 2. Slight irritation when using as an exfoliating toner. I'm not sure if it's due to my lack of skill, but I felt a bit of a tingling sensation.

I decided to try them since another brand's Houttuynia Cordata pads worked well for me. The hydration level is great, and it absorbs into the skin with a nice, plump feeling. That's why I found them perfect to use while blow-drying my hair. Some pads dry out quickly from the hairdryer, which can be inconvenient, but these held up well. The pads are also larger than the ones I usually use, so they sat comfortably on my cheeks. The sheet quality felt soft and pleasant too. If stearic acid and Houttuynia Cordata ingredients work well for you, these pads seem to be an excellent all-around choice!
ConsHowever, after use, my skin became red and upon checking, I noticed it contains stearic acid. This ingredient sometimes works fine for me, but other times it can clog my pores, causing redness mainly on my cheeks, increasing skin texture, and making my skin feel sensitive. I'll have to try it a few more times when my skin is in better condition.
TipFor those who respond well to hyaluronic acid, using these pads along with a hyaluronic acid ampoule could create an explosion of hydration synergy!

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.ProsReceived this as part of The Hwahae Testers program, and here's my honest review after using it! - Absorption: It doesn't leave a greasy film, but instead absorbs well, leaving skin hydrated and cool! - Unscented, which is great - Essence quantity: These pads are the most generously soaked I've ever used. They don't dry out quickly - absolutely fantastic! - Gentle embossed side: Unlike some exfoliating pads that are too rough and don't have enough essence, these have a gentle texture that's perfect even for my delicate skin. Great for soft cleansing! - Clever tweezer placement: Absolutely revolutionary! Other pads have tweezers on the lid top, which is annoying and often leads to dropping and wasting pads. These won't fall, and I'm using them consistently! The smart tweezer location also makes for more hygienic use. Overall, if you're looking for hydrating and soothing pads, I highly recommend these!
ConsOn days when my skin was extra sensitive (maybe contact dermatitis?), even these stung a bit. If you have extremely sensitive skin, you might want to think twice.
TipAs many of you probably know, you can use these like a mask by leaving them on!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 received the product and used it for about 7 days, morning and evening. Color: Transparent Texture: Not watery at all. Slightly viscous type Scent: Subtle, herbal (Houttuynia cordata) fragrance. Not artificial Notable cooling effect when applied Pads are thoroughly soaked in essence, as the container is filled with it One side of the pad has a textured surface, great for exfoliating toner use. The other side is smooth, perfect for leaving on like a mask while drying your hair. I usually place one pad on each cheek and one on the forehead while blow-drying. Main ingredient is Houttuynia cordata extract, excellent for soothing the skin. Expiration date is marked on the bottom of the package. The pad container has a wide opening, making it easy to remove pads. The tweezers don't directly touch the pads, ensuring hygiene.
ConsOccasionally, the pads would fall off when left on like a mask. The adhesion could be slightly better. While using these pads, I switched to a different cream (Abib Heartleaf) in my skincare routine, and some inflammatory blemishes appeared around my mouth. It's unclear if these blemishes were directly caused by these pads.

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.ProsSkin type: Combination dehydrated, slightly sensitive, almost no blemishes, visible pores, prone to redness Overall impression: If it suits your skin, it could be a great go-to product! - Cooling effect and soothing: Immediately feels cool on the face, and visibly reduces redness after use - Hydration: Feels moisturizing during use, but the hydrating effect doesn't last long after removal - Texture: Closer to water-like consistency, but slightly stickier than purely water-based pads * Recommended mask time is about 10 minutes - Product usage: The tweezers are attached to the container, not the lid, making it very convenient to take out and put back pads. Among all the pads I've tried, these were the easiest to separate
Cons- The day after using it, I developed mild, scattered blemishes all over my face. I've felt that Goodal products didn't suit me before, and this one doesn't either. I tried it a few times thinking my skin condition might have been poor, but the result was the same - It stings when I put it on my face - The pads are very difficult to tear (hard to tear by hand to apply on nose and chin)

After using it for about a week, I noticed the moisturizing effect lasted longer, and my makeup went on more smoothly afterwards.
ConsThe packaging was difficult to open at first, and I ended up just tearing it open. The opening instructions were too vague, so it wasn't clear how to properly open it. Also, I experienced some slight irritation on my face later, like minor blemishes or itchiness. When I applied it to the back of my hand, there was a slight tingling sensation.
TipI found it's better not to apply additional essence or emulsion after using this product. When used alone as a mask, it provided the best hydration and caused the least irritation.

Hydration I've always used it almost like an exfoliating toner. Usually, after using an exfoliating toner, my face would still feel tight, but with this product, I didn't experience any tightness at all! It was excellent for deep hydration. 2. Application and absorption The pad has two sides, making it suitable as an exfoliating toner. I also used the softer side as a mask the night before applying makeup. It wiped off gently, absorbed well, and my makeup went on beautifully afterward! I have sensitive skin that easily gets irritated or loses its texture with the slightest roughness, but I didn't experience any of that! 3. Cooling effect This was my favorite aspect of using this product! I tend to have a lot of heat in my cheeks, which always stresses me out due to redness. While using this product, I noticed a significant reduction in that heat! After using it as an exfoliating toner and patting it in, my cheeks felt genuinely cool to the touch.
ConsThe one downside was the blemishes. My skin tends to react badly to Centella asiatica, so I think the Houttuynia cordata didn't agree with me either. As a result, I started to see some small blemishes appear after use. If you're sensitive to natural ingredients, please check the ingredient list carefully!
