With the weather getting warmer, these toner pads have become an essential part of my routine, especially when blow-drying my hair. First off, I love that these pads are square-shaped and larger than others, allowing them to cover almost my entire cheek. True to their name as hydrating pads, they're saturated with essence, keeping my skin moisturized until I finish drying my hair. Another plus is that if you're careful, each pad can be separated into two layers, making them last quite a while. And importantly, I didn't experience any blemishes!
ConsWhile the abundance of essence is great for hydration, sometimes it would drip down my face when applied to my cheeks. Also, I found it a bit tricky to open the lid and remove the pads.
TipIf you find them too saturated, try separating one pad into two layers. Don't forget to use these to protect your skin while blow-drying your hair!

It's great for replenishing moisture, and the clip provided helps keep everything neat and tidy.
ConsThere aren't really any drawbacks, and the size is perfect for applying to the face. If I had to mention one minor issue, it would be that there's so much ampoule that it can drip down when you put it on your face.
TipThe abundance of ampoule in this mask is both a blessing and a slight inconvenience. While it provides excellent hydration, you might want to have a towel handy to catch any excess product. Despite this, the mask's size and overall effectiveness make it a worthwhile addition to your daily mask routine, especially for those seeking intense moisture replenishment.

( 피부타입은 복합성이고 열이 잘오르며 홍조와 모공이 큰 피부 타입이에요 ) 처음 받고 뜯었을때 앰플양이 케이스 안에 가득 차 있어서 좋았습니다 . 패드를 다 사용할때까지 수분가득 촉촉하게 사용할 수 있을거같아요 . 제형은 스펀지 패드이며 쿠션감이 뛰어나 패드한장당 머금고 있는 수분이 엄청났어요 !! 밀착력도 좋고 크기가 커서 볼 전체를 덮을 수 있고 팩 대용으로 사용 할 수 있어서 좋았습니다. 그래서 저녁 샤워 후 드라이기 사용하며 15분동안 올려놨었는데 그때까지 마르지 않고 촉촉했어요 향도 강하지고 않고 (거의 못느꼈어용 ) 예민하고 민감한 피부에도 자극적이지 않아서 너무 잘 사용했습니다 . 저는 얼굴에 열이 많고 홍조도 있어서 냉장고에 두고 사용중인데 더 빨리 진정되고 홍조도 많이 좋아져서 매일 사용중이에요 😘
Cons스펀지 패드여서 그런가 패드에 토너가 많이 적셔져있는데 얼굴에 올리면 토너가 흘러서 그게 좀 불편해요 ! 그거 말고는 없어요 ~~
Tip냉장고에 넣어 두고 사용하세요 진정되고 너무 좋아용 저녁 세안 후 팩 대신 사용중이고 , 아침 화장전에 닦토로 결정리 하면 피부 화장 잘 먹어요 ㅎㅎ

Plus, these thick pads are absolutely soaked in essence! (Just look at the second photo to see how much essence they hold!) I loved how quickly these square pads cooled down my skin and provided deep hydration with just a few gentle swipes. The absorption was fantastic! When you're too lazy for a full mask, just place one pad on each cheek. Your skin will feel as moisturized as if you'd done a full sheet mask! (They adhere really well and stay put for ages)
ConsWhile the watery texture should work well for dry, oily, or combination skin types without feeling heavy, it flows quite easily. Be careful not to let it run into your eyes!
TipI love how you can use these for a quick cleanse or as an impromptu mask!

The toner pads are thick, allowing for excellent absorption into the skin. I'm completely satisfied with how it feels when applied.
ConsFirst off, the essence leaks way too easily. Even without completely turning it upside down, it drips excessively with just a slight tilt. The scent is incredibly strong and smells artificial, which I found quite challenging to deal with. This might be suitable for those who enjoy the fragrance or plan to use it exclusively at home.
TipFor an ultra-hydrated face, try placing it on your skin right after washing and while drying your hair.

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.ProsThis mask is absolutely drenched in ampoule - it's so hydrating that my skin still feels moisturized the next day! It's quite economical too, as one sheet is enough for a full mask session and you can even use the excess essence to wipe down afterwards. As someone with super sensitive skin, I've been using this consistently without any tingling or irritation. It's truly as gentle as they claim.
ConsThe pad is a bit thick, which makes it slightly challenging to get a perfect fit on the face. It's not ideal if you're looking for that skin-hugging mask experience. Another minor drawback is that the ampoule is so abundant that it tends to drip down from the forehead when applied. The formulation might be a tad too runny.
TipThis mask pairs wonderfully with aloe vera products! I've been stressed lately due to some small blemishes on my forehead, but after applying a generous layer of aloe vera gel and topping it with this mask, I noticed a visible reduction in those pesky bumps!

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.Pros1. It's incredibly hydrating. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I'm always on the hunt for hydrating products. To be honest, sheet masks have been the most effective, but they're a hassle to use daily. My routine was simply cleanse, apply serum, then moisturizer. Done. I think this product is a great alternative to sheet masks. Just place one on each cheek, one on the chin, and one on the forehead, and you'll feel the hydration for quite a while. If you have combination dehydrated skin like me, you'll wake up to skin with a perfect oil and moisture balance the next morning. 2. I love how thick and large they are. The hydrating pads I used before were thinner and smaller than these. Before trying this product, I thought the previous ones were the standard size for what's available these days, so I didn't think much of it. But the Illuminiel pads are large enough to cover my entire cheek, which is perfect. They're also thick, so they don't dry out quickly, which is great.
ConsThe container is an issue. I've experienced this with other products too... When the lid and the main body of the container are just loosely fitted together, if the container tips over, the liquid inside just pours out. It's not a small leak - it gushes out. It's such a waste, isn't it? Of course, the container itself isn't small and it's well-balanced, so it's unlikely to tip over on its own. Still, you're bound to experience it at least once while using it. I'm sure there's a simple solution to this problem.
TipIf you apply these right after washing your face, you can easily do a hydrating mask while you dry your hair. Since they're thick and contain a lot of moisture, they're better used as a hydrating mask rather than for wiping off makeup.

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.ProsThe refreshing green color was beautiful and seemed like it would give the skin a fresh feeling, so I thought the color choice was excellent. When I opened it, there was a convenient applicator included. I had previously used Me** toner pads with a clip on the lid, which I initially thought was great, but ended up being unsatisfactory as the pads always fell off. With Illumiel's square pads, I didn't have to worry about that since they use a hanging design. The pads are quite thick - at first, I even thought there might be two of them! With other pads, they often dry out quickly even when slightly attached, so I only used them for dabbing. But these thick pads absorb a lot of product, allowing me to use them like a mask without worrying about them drying out. The hydration was the most satisfying aspect. Sometimes products claim various effects, but the hydration isn't always satisfactory. However, for those with dehydrated skin, I don't think there's a better pad out there. Also, I appreciate that it's vegan, so I can use it with confidence.
ConsFirst off, the formula is too runny, so it keeps dripping down my face while I'm wearing it. It even gets into my mouth. This is both an advantage and a disadvantage. On the bright side, it doesn't taste bitter. While I'm very satisfied with the thickness, it's a bit disappointing that there are only 60 pads in a pack. It's not exactly a drawback, but it's somewhat of a letdown.
TipThe reviewer appreciates the product's hydrating properties and innovative design, particularly praising its thickness and absorption capabilities. They also value its vegan formulation. However, they note that the runny texture can be problematic during application, and they wish the package contained more pads.

Scent: Yes, similar to Sulwhasoo skin toner (very feminine) Irritation: None Suitable for sensitive skin: Yes Size: Large Thickness: Medium-high These pads are slightly thicker than regular cotton pads and have no pattern - just plain! They feel like soft non-woven fabric. I've been dealing with atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis-like symptoms for almost 20 years, causing my skin to occasionally become red and itchy. A few days ago, I had an allergy test at the dermatologist (cost: 50,000 won). Turns out I have a very strong reaction to dust mites, which apparently resembles atopic dermatitis. For those of you who experience immediate stinging and burning sensations when using just about anything, making you want to wash it off right away - you know how hard it is to use fragranced products, right? My routine: Morning - water cleanse + toner pad / Evening - remove sunscreen + toner pad I've already used more than half the product. When you open the lid and take a whiff, you can smell the fragrance, but once applied to the skin, it's barely noticeable. The pads are thick, so sometimes the toner might drip a bit. The size is perfect - just two pads cover the cheeks entirely, making it great for sensitive skin. Amazingly, even if I forget and leave a used pad on my vanity, it still retains some moisture when I get home.
ConsThe only downside is that these pads contain quite a bit of toner, which can lead to dripping when used as a pack.
TipBefore discarding the used pad, I like to give my vanity a quick wipe to remove any dust!

They have a nice clinging sensation, making it easy to go about other activities while wearing them. The placement of the clips and the overall hygienic design make these pads very convenient to use. The biggest advantage of ISOI is the amount of essence! One pad contains more than enough essence for a full application. I can use three sheets to cover my entire face, neck, and still have enough left over for my feet! The amount of essence is truly impressive. Thanks to this generous essence, the pads don't dry out quickly, allowing for long-lasting hydration and skin care maintenance.
ConsSince I don't have super sensitive skin, the overall experience was good. If I had to nitpick, I'd suggest slightly reducing the size of the square pads and increasing the number of pads instead. The flip-top lid is very convenient, but a tiny bit of essence tends to leak out each time you open and close it during use. Despite this minor issue, the overall experience is positive.
TipThe square shape of the pads makes them perfect for treating the area under the chin. You can fold them in half to provide a moisturizing treatment for the chin area as well.
