The product appears to have mixed results. While it works well as a makeup base for some, particularly those with dry skin, others find it lacking in essence and ineffective for texture issues. The potential for skin irritation is also noted, suggesting it may not be suitable for all skin types.

There's not enough essence. By the time you've used all the pads, there's practically no essence left. And those little bumps or rough patches? They don't disappear at all! If anything, it seems to have only irritated my skin.

My makeup went on beautifully! I'd definitely recommend this to those with dry skin.

It's a bit disappointing that it didn't completely eliminate the blemish-related texture issues.

The uneven texture has almost disappeared, and it's wonderfully hydrating with its generous amount of ampoule.

The product seems to excel in soothing and cooling properties, which can be beneficial for sensitive or irritated skin. However, it may not be as effective for addressing textural concerns like uneven skin surface. It's important to note that different skin concerns may require targeted treatments, and what works well for one issue might not be as effective for another.

I bought this hoping it would help with my uneven skin texture, but I didn't see much improvement in that area.

It's refreshingly cool and calming, helping to reduce any heat or inflammation. Even those with sensitive skin can use it without worry.

I was disappointed that it didn't soothe my blemishes as quickly as I'd hoped.

I'm already on my third bottle of this product!!! It's just so amazing. My skin calms down quickly and it effectively tackles dead skin cells.

The essence quantity was a bit sparse, causing the pad to dry out slightly faster than I'd prefer.

While it may not completely eliminate texture, I was really impressed by how visibly soothing it was on my skin.

Those with sensitive skin might experience blemishes or a tingling sensation.

I really enjoyed the cooling effect that helped reduce the heat on my skin. The application was also quite nice.

While this product didn't wow me, it might work differently for others with dry skin. The pads remained somewhat moist, which is a plus for those with dehydrated complexions. However, the lack of abundant essence and unremarkable performance make it hard to enthusiastically recommend. If you're looking for a more hydrating option, you might want to explore other products that work harder to nourish dry skin.

The pads I used didn't have much essence on them. However, they didn't dry out completely.

Dry

To be honest, I didn't find this product particularly impressive. I used up one container but didn't feel compelled to repurchase. It seems like just an ordinary pad to me... I wouldn't necessarily recommend rushing out to buy it.

This review compares the product to another brand's soothing pads, suggesting the reviewer has experience with various skincare items. They seem to be looking for effective solutions for skin texture and soothing properties, while also being conscious of value for money.

The price is way too high! Even with discounts, it doesn't seem worth the cost.
The scent is really, really, really unpleasant...

After reading reviews claiming it erases texture, I skeptically made the purchase. To be honest, I can't really tell if it's helping with texture (which temporarily disappears even with just water cleansing).

Still, since it's a cica product with soothing ingredients, I decided to give it a try. It's not bad, but I found the Leader* soothing pads to be more effective for calming my skin.

When wiping it off, there's a slight stinging sensation on the cheeks, and some redness appears.

You can feel the hydration immediately upon application, and it absorbs well. Highly recommended for dry skin.

The key tip is to definitely use it as a leave-on treatment rather than wiping it off!
And after applying it as a leave-on treatment, you can layer another toner on top if you like!

By the way, if you're really looking for something to soothe blemishes, I'd also recommend the ABIB Heartleaf Spot Pad Calming Touch...!!!

Blemish soothing: ⭐️
It didn't help soothe my blemishes at all...
But it was still usable because it was moisturizing.
I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for blemish relief.

Also, I don't recommend using it with a cotton pad as it can irritate your skin.

I bought this because a famous TikToker was advertising it!
I purchased it because it's supposed to be good for blemishes!

Overall rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Application: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The cotton pad isn't very soft, so it felt quite rough when I used it to wipe my face.
However, it was great as a leave-on treatment!

Absorption: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It absorbs well!
If you're using it as a leave-on treatment, after applying, gently pat your face with your hands to help it absorb even better!

I kept it in the fridge and used it for cooling hydration and soothing my face!

Not recommended for super sensitive skin. 
As you can see in the photo, it's a gauze type, so it's too rough to use as an exfoliating toner. 
The textured pad caused irritation like in the photo when I used it as an exfoliating toner on my textured chin area. It's so rough it made my skin red and inflamed. 
I'm not sure if just leaving it on improves skin texture either... 

Not sure if I'll buy it again.

Review after using more than half for acne-prone/combination dehydrated skin

After washing, before drying, just stick it on your face. It prevents moisture from evaporating and allows for a fresh dry. It doesn't fall off easily, so it's great as a mask. 

In winter, after a hot shower when your face feels flushed, put it on for about 5 minutes and the redness subsides. Even after more than 5 minutes, it doesn't dry out and stays hydrating.
