"These pads are a total game-changer! I was a bit nervous about trying a new chemical exfoliant, but they are incredibly gentle and did not break me out at all. After just a few uses I could clearly see the glow returning to my skin. They leave my face feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed without any irritation, definitely a new holy grail in my routine. . !! And and I was shocked by the size of the packaging 😁😂"
"To start off, I have very oily acne prone skin. I also have very large pores and was hoping it would help. Now I don't see any change in my pores, I did notice my skin feel smoother immediately. I started off using every 3 days twice and now every other day. I did notice my breakouts were more controlled. I will continue to use. Now I have to say I love the packaging. The lid is easy to open and has a spot for the tweezers to hang onto which is super helpful."
"Fun, reusable packaging that keeps the pads nice and damp and I really liked the tweezers to get them out. The texture on the pads really helps with exfoliation. The scent is very earthy and the moisture dissipates quickly, leaving my skin feeling fresh. I've already seen results in oil balance across my face. The ingredients don't dry out my skin which is rare for a cleanser pad."
"I had the opportunity to be an exclusive Mystery Glow Trialists for this product. I happened to be experiencing a hormonal breakout when I received it and was happy that it seemed to help soothe my skin. This product didn't irritate or dry out my skin. I tried it on its own and while I did feel a little shiny after my ski felt moisturized, The tweezers help me feel like I'm ensuring cleanliness when using this product. Overall I am happy with this. The container is a little large so it't not great for traveling but a good at home care skin care routine addition."
"Right now I'm struggling with break outs and not happy overall with my skin texture so these came at a great time. Instead of having to mix different products containing individual ingredients, this one step pad is so simple. I love the packaging, looks very clean and the built in tweezers make accessibility even easier. I was stunned by how much excess dirt and oil I was able to remove. Definitely worth purchasing!"
"The COSRX blemish toner pad is a quick and easy exfoliating toner pad that helps clear pores, reduce blackheads, and control oil. It gently smooths skin using BHA and leaves it feeling clean and refreshed. Best for oily and acne-prone skin, but may be too strong for sensitive skin if used daily."
"I really like the packaging of this product—especially the built-in tweezers, which are super convenient and feel more hygienic. So far, it’s been helping with small breakouts and cleaning out my pores. My skin feels really clean and kind of glowy after using it. I’ve only been using it for a short time, but my skin seems to be handling it really well. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try!"
"I am finding this a little harsh for my very dry and sensitive skin. My skin barrier is currently a little wrecked and not tolerating many things. Using it more along the jaw line and upper shoulders has been working better for me than my face. The packaging is great and the product is huge, much bigger than the picture led me to think."
"Toner was always the 'missing step' in my routine because of the hassle. Fortunately, these pads make integration so effortless that I’ll never skip it again. The container is a good size with 100 pads that'll last a while. Good design too as it comes with plastic tweezers that stay on the bottom of the top cover. So far it's a little early to tell, but I can tell right away that after my skin dries it looks more even in color. I imagine with times my pores will get smaller."
"I wanted to try this properly before writing a review. This project is everything it says it is. My pores do appear cleaner and smaller and it doesn’t dry up my skin. I haven’t had to use any physical exfoliation because the texture of my skin feels nice and soft."
