These days, there are a lot of these toner pad products coming out, and I've heard a lot of good things about them. But I was worried they might irritate me, so I didn't use them. However, I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, so I'll try it out once. First of all, it's a great product to use as a face pack rather than a wash. The face pack is much less irritating than the wash, and it's a shame to just use it as a face pack, so I gently pat it on the areas the pad doesn't reach, like the nose and chin, and it absorbs the product really well. I apply my basic skincare products right after showering. But I really dislike how my face gets so dry and hot after blow-drying. So I apply the toner (or even serum) and then add this product to my cheeks and forehead before blow-drying. This prevents the moisture from being blown away, and there's a cooling effect that keeps my skin temperature from rising. Even when I bend over and use the blow-dryer, the pad stays in place well and doesn't fall off. There were some breakouts during the trial period, but when my skin was in good condition, I didn't have any breakouts using this product. Instead, it felt like it was replenishing my skin's moisture. And thanks to this product, or maybe the LG Prael Wash Foam I use for cleansing, my nose area applies makeup smoothly without needing to scrub it intensely with a wash. I try to avoid scrubbing too hard with a wash, just gently patting or lightly sweeping, and it still effectively removes the dead skin. The toner pad is so great to use with a blow-dryer that I'll likely buy it again once I finish this one.The formula has a watery, flowing texture, and there's a lot of product that you can see sloshing around, which is great! So when you lift the pad, the solution drips down, but you can just apply it right away. The way it's slightly inserted into the groove on the lid is better than being fixed to the lid with a clip. It's very convenient! (Cancelling the previous update... The pad doesn't seem to be positioned well, and the product is leaking out to the side instead of staying on the pad. I'll attach a photo to show how the pad has curled inward, and the liquid has seeped into the toner, contaminating it. This is not a good experience.) After the face pack, I like to massage it into areas like the neck, collarbone, and elbows as well. The packaging design with the semi-transparent green color is also very nice, and the fragrance is not unpleasant.
ConsFirst, it's hard to distinguish the front and back. This is the biggest downside. When I tried samples of other toner pads, it wasn't difficult to tell the front and back apart, but with this product, even after feeling it with my hands repeatedly, I still can't seem to tell the difference. 😂 In the end, I only realize I've put it on the wrong way when I feel a slight stinging sensation on my face. Haha It's natural for it to sting if it gets in your eyes. The pad doesn't feel extremely soft, but putting the softer side on doesn't feel like a significant downside either - it's just right. I like that the pad is square-shaped rather than round, as it seems to cover more of the facial area. Rather than a soothing sensation, it feels more like intense moisture care!
TipWhen drying your hair, be sure to attach the pad, and after drying your hair, finish with basic care.

I mainly used them for soothing after morning cleansing, and my skin felt smoother and my makeup applied better. The gentle, non-irritating texture was great, and the square shape made it easy to apply to specific areas like the cheeks, chin, and forehead, almost like a spot treatment. The 'non-sticky, yet moisturizing' sensation was personally my favorite part.
ConsAnd on days when my skin condition was sensitive, there was also a slightly stinging feeling. The irritation was not strong, but on sensitive days, it would be better to use it only on areas with less irritation than on the entire face.

Not sticky and doesn't fly away, great moisture feel!!! I prefer light care products in the morning as I'm an oily+troublemaker skin type Because my makeup flies away after lunch!! The water wave moisture pad is perfect for moisture charging before morning makeup After washing, I put two pads on my cheeks and nasolabial folds, let it sit for 5 minutes while drying my hair and using the curling iron, then move the pads to my forehead and chin for another 5 minutes of pack It's so moisturizing that the next step of care is light (The swatch shot is after 10 minutes of use - it's still moisturizing even after 10 minutes. I stick it on my neck while doing makeup because I don't want to waste it^^) In the evening, I use one sheet, wipe off the residue after cleansing (no scrubbing!!), Flip it over and move it around my forehead - cheeks - chin for 3-4 minutes each to recharge moisture~ Then I finish with night care!! Very satisfied~~
ConsThe pad is closer to a light pack that is lightweight and moist, rather than an embossed pad (for residue removal). Unlike the embossed pad, it can sting if you wipe it off.
TipThose who get their nails done, please don't split them in half to use them. Long nails don't split well, and after trying it, you'll find the moisturizing effect is lacking. You can use one pad to tidy up your skin, then apply it all over your face, and you'll be left with just the moisturizing effect without any dryness!

It really feels like it's replenishing moisture properly! Using it before makeup application helps reduce heat and fully hydrates, so the makeup applies well.
ConsPersonally, I have a somewhat sensitive skin, so the area under my nose was a bit irritated. And the fragrance has a slightly artificial scent, like my dad's cologne.
TipIt would have been fine if you had applied it to your cheeks or forehead instead of your nose!!!!!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsMy skin type is dry. -Soothing I prefer pads with a soothing effect as there is redness in the T-zone. After using a mask, the redness visibly subsided, indicating the effectiveness. -Thickness It is on the thicker side, so it absorbs essence well and allows for easy masking and drying. It did not dry out quickly. -Size The large size of the pads covered my entire face at once, which was convenient. -Moisture As a dry skin type, it is not overly oily and has a suitable level of moisture, which works well for me.
ConsThe only slight downside is that on days when my skin is sensitive, if I apply it like a face pack, it stings and feels irritated. Breakouts didn't occur, but if you have sensitive skin, it might be better to look for a different pad.

There is a place to put the tweezers and it is easy to peel off. The pads are also relatively thick. When you put them on and take them off, you can definitely feel the moisture. Both sides have no embossing, so it is definitely not for cleansing, but it seems good for those who do packs! The amount absorbed in one pad is a lot, so there is no feeling of drying out until you take it off.
ConsThe product's distinctive fragrance was a bit unpleasant. Additionally, I would not recommend it for those with sensitive skin. Although my skin is not particularly delicate, I did experience a slight stinging sensation when applying the pads.

But this one adheres directly to the skin, which was good. It has a clip, so you don't have to hold it with your hands, which is hygienic. When applied to the face, it feels refreshing and soothing to the skin. Using it before makeup makes the makeup go on better, and using it before bed at night leaves the skin moisturized and somewhat brightened the next day. And!! During my teenage years when I was most sensitive to acne, I kept applying it to the affected areas, and the acne gradually subsided. As I've used it, I've noticed that the discoloration and acne on my skin have disappeared, and people around me constantly tell me that my skin looks great.
ConsThose with sensitive skin may find it stinging. I also have sensitive skin and it seems to have a slight stinging sensation.
TipAt first, apply it to the skin and later, when removing it, wipe your face once and wipe your neck, and it will be completely refreshing!!

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 very large and thick pad. It's my first time using something like this. ㅠㅠ But I really love it! It's completely soaked with moisture, so you can even use it like a face mask. I got it as a free trial sample, but there were 3 sheets in one package, and even using just 2 was more than enough - the moisture lasts amazingly long. If you have dry skin or want to rehydrate your face, you should definitely try this. The instructions say to leave it on for 3-5 minutes, but I left it on for 10 minutes and it didn't dry out at all - I even showered with it on! ^.^ In summary, this is the king of moisture, the king of cooling sensation, and the king of size.
ConsHowever, I had one regret. I am very sensitive, so my skin tends to get irritated and turn red. That's why I tried using it to soothe my skin, but those with extremely sensitive skin may feel a slight stinging sensation. My sister tried it on her face and said it felt irritating, so just be mindful of that. Other than that, it's a perfect pad.
TipKeep it in the refrigerator for a bit, then pat it on your face - it's completely ice-cold, so it's highly recommended for those who want to lower their facial temperature.

The essence is packed in, so it provides excellent hydration.
Cons1. As I mentioned earlier, it's good for foundation, but the pad is a bit thick, so the adhesion isn't that great. 2. The fragrance is a bit overwhelming. 3. It can be a bit stinging at times, and I've seen that other people have had the same experience, so I'd recommend carefully reading the Hwahae Trial Reviewer before purchasing, based on your skin type.
TipTry using it for skincare every evening.
