Benefits

These pads are formulated to address initial skin troubles and sensitive skin concerns. They effectively reduce the look of redness, soothe sensitive skin, smooth skin texture, and strengthen the skin barrier. By gently removing dead skin cells and excess sebum, the pads help create a smooth base for makeup application. The product provides a cooling effect, helping to lower skin temperature and offer relief to skin stressed by external factors such as heat and UV rays.

Main Ingredients and their effects

Green Tea Water: Contained at 82%, this ingredient helps soothe sensitive skin conditions and provides a cooling effect for heated skin. PHA and LHA: These gentle exfoliating ingredients work together to refine the skin surface and smooth out rough texture without irritation. Panthenol: Also known as Vitamin B5, this ingredient comforts skin that has become sensitive due to external stimuli. Madecassoside: Works in synergy with other ingredients to help soothe and repair the skin barrier. Ceramide: Essential for strengthening the skin’s moisture barrier to keep it resilient and healthy.

The product has completed testing for suitability for acne-prone skin and irritation testing for sensitive skin.

Usage instructions

For daily toning, gently wipe the entire face with the embossed side of the pad following the skin texture, avoiding the eye area. For intensive soothing and moisturizing care, use as a pack by placing the pad on specific areas that require extra attention, acting as a mini-mask. The pads feature a dual-sided design: use the embossed side for exfoliating and clearing impurities, and the smooth side for adhering to the skin to focus on barrier care.
