After using it for a week, it seems gentle and non-irritating. Since my skin is sensitive, I don't usually use face masks, but this product feels refreshing and the pad is the right thickness, so it can be used as a face mask. The product contains enough essence, and the double-sided pad allows for versatile use. I will repurchase this product.
ConsI don't prefer the double-sided pad, and I would have preferred a soft cotton pad instead. I usually do exfoliation, so the double-sided pad is not ideal for me. Also, the product can leak out if the pad is tilted or flipped over, which is a bit inconvenient. I'm not sure if this is normal since I haven't used this type of product before.
TipThis product is perfect as a substitute for a face mask.

After application, it does not feel excessively sticky, which is good. The pad is thick and the embossed surface is firm, so there is little irritation when removing facial dead skin. I was using the Abib Houttuynia pad before, and this pad is slightly larger, which was nice.
ConsThe packaging was not sealing properly. After opening the package and removing the seal, I accidentally tilted it for a moment, and the essence spilled out. I had the lid on, but it still leaked through the gaps, and the floor got wet. The seal removal was difficult. I tried to pull it off as instructed, holding the handle, but the handle came off. There was no other method besides manually removing the seal with my hands.
TipAfter using a wash-off pack, I used it to refine my skin texture and left it on my face. I placed it on areas where my pores were a bit concerning or where I had some blemishes, and while watching a drama, I slowly wiped my face with the embossed cloth. I was quite satisfied with the results. After finishing my face, I applied the remaining essence on areas that tend to need attention in the summer, like my elbows and ankles, to allow it to be absorbed.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsEven when essence pad products were very popular and widely seen, I never had the chance to try them. After turning 30, I was focused on dieting my cosmetics, only using serums and moisturizers. To be honest, I also avoided it because I found it inconvenient, with the quick preparation and nighttime skincare routine being too much of a hassle for me. But this time, I'm grateful to have the opportunity to try it, as I was selected. Seeing the Yuhan Kimberly company name on the delivery box immediately boosted my trust and liking for the brand, even though it was an unfamiliar one to me. It suddenly felt so familiar and approachable. The thick container holding 70 sheets seemed substantial, and I think it will last my partner and I for about 2 weeks. When I peeled off one sheet, I thought two were stuck together because the pad was so thick. I don't think the moisture will evaporate easily even when using it as a mask. Seeing that it's also great for pore management got me really excited. Pores and wrinkles, especially on my forehead, have been my biggest concerns since my 40s. I've been contemplating getting treatments done. On the first day, I wiped my whole face with one sheet, then put two more sheets on my cheeks as a mask. Even after 20 minutes, they didn't dry out at all, making me wonder how long I could keep them on. In the morning, I also used them as a toner substitute, leaving the sheet on my forehead while drying my hair. Using them this way daily has made my skin texture so much smoother. My skin feels so refined now that I don't even feel the need for exfoliation during cleansing. I can really feel the pore management benefits when applying my serum as well. It's become an addictive routine, easily peeling off a sheet for my daily care. Now I understand why essence pads are so popular. I will definitely repurchase once I finish these. I strongly recommend this to anyone struggling with forehead wrinkles and skin texture like me.
ConsThe large container size makes it inconvenient to bring when traveling. I'm also worried the essence might leak out. It would be great if they had a travel-sized version available. Other than that, I have nothing but praise for how well this product works for me.
TipEven after completing my skincare routine, there's still plenty of essence left in the pad. Don't throw it away, just leave it on your forehead and go about your other tasks. It's amazing for boosting forehead moisture.

For my oily and sensitive skin, I was really pleased that this product had no pore-clogging ingredients and no risky or cautionary ingredients in its formula. When I first used the pads, I tried to tear them apart, but they were sturdy enough not to tear. The forest-inspired scent was also very pleasant, and I didn't experience any breakouts (which is the most important factor for me when using a product). I felt slightly less satisfied using this in the summer, but I think I would have been very satisfied using it in the winter. It seems like a great option for dry to normal skin types in the summer.
Cons-The pad size is a bit small for adult male standards -When trying to remove the seal, the tab just tears off instead of the whole seal -In the summer, the oil content feels a bit heavy for oily skin -As shown in the photo, the serum leaked out of the container just by leaving it on the table without doing anything
TipI'd recommend using these pads as a soothing face mask when your skin is feeling heated or needs extra calming. You can also use the used pads on your neck and elbows.

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.ProsFirst, my skin type is combination+redness. *This is an honest review of the products I used from 6/26 to 7/4. ✔️Sufficient Toner💦💦 - As soon as I opened the lid, I could see the toner sloshing around, indicating that it was thoroughly soaked into the pads! - While some other products can dry out if the lid is not closed properly, this product has so much toner that I don't have to worry about it drying out. ✔️Tweezers - There are separate tweezers inside the toner pads, so it's easy and hygienic to take out each pad one by one.👍🏻 ✔️Dual-sided Use⭕️ - Before doing my makeup, I would press the pads onto my face while drying my hair. Then, when I did my makeup, it went on really well! - And for the slightly rougher(?) areas, I used them after cleansing as an exfoliator! But I'm not sure if the exfoliation was effective or not...haha ✔️Ingredients - Just as the product name suggests, it contains cica ingredients, so even people with sensitive skin can use it! I'm not extremely sensitive, but my skin tends to get irritated if the ingredients are even slightly problematic. However, after using it for 10 days, my skin didn't get irritated at all! - When I checked the ingredients, I found that it contains 8-types of hyaluronic acid! The same ingredient is in the ampoule I use, and it's known for 'moisture retention, skin elasticity, and wound healing'. That's probably why my skin felt plumper after using these pads!
Cons✔️Packaging - I read other reviews, and I also struggled a bit when I first opened it...haha I guess it's because they packaged it so meticulously.(?) - There's too much toner inside the container, so every time I take out a pad, some of the toner spills out on the outside of the container.ㅠㅠ ✔️After Use - When I put the pad on my face and wipe, it feels really sticky right after, and it takes a bit of time for my skin to absorb it.. Since I like to use it while drying my hair, my hair ends up sticking to my face..ㅠ
Tip🍀Since I have a bit of redness on my face, I keep the container in the fridge and take out one pad at a time to use. It feels refreshing and helps calm the redness. ㅎㅎ 🍀Since there's a lot of toner, I like to apply the used pads to my neck, elbows, and other areas as well!

So after showering, I use the rough side to remove the fluffy dead skin, then use the other side to absorb it! ✅ Totally a 'works-like-a-charm' item!!! - After using this, my makeup suddenly doesn't crumble as much! Is it because it's so moisturizing? - You know how hot Vietnam is, right? As a powerful oily skin person, in Korea it would start crumbling in just 2-3 hours due to oil and grime, but in Vietnam, even with sweat and oil gushing out, it was only slightly crumbled after 8 hours!! I was truly amazed🫢 ✅ Moisturizing galore💦 - To be honest, I didn't expect much since it's small, but the amount of toner it holds is enormous!! - The toner amount inside is also generous, so it seems like it won't dry out. ✅ Built-in tweezers in the toner! - It's a bit unsanitary to take it out with your hands, but since it has tweezers, it's reassuring ㅎㅎ And the tweezers are stored inside, not on the outside, which is nice👍 ✅ The astounding 70 sheets - I've only seen 50 sheets before, but 70 sheets?? Isn't that a total steal? Seems like it'll be enough for toner packs too~ TMI. I've been using one at a time because I didn't want to waste them, but the instructions say to apply, wait 10-20 minutes, then massage it in. I'll have to try that tomorrow ㅎㅎ
ConsI'm not the type to find many downsides, but I found one here🥲 I think everyone can relate to this.. Do you have trouble removing the cover when opening it? For me, the plastic cover was separated, so I had to carefully pry open the corners😅 And this seems to be a common issue with all toner pads There was an incident where the toner leaked out when I put it in my luggage to move.. Even though there's a lid, it still leaks out, which is a problem. But even with all that, it's still a great toner pad ღ
TipTry putting it in the fridge before using it! It's cool and very moisturizing, so it has a soothing effect💜
