🗣️ What Real Users Say (via Reddit)

Many users praise the calming effect and pore-refining benefits:

“They helped minimize my pores, reduce redness … and I haven't had any breakouts (even my small normal ones) since using them. I appreciate that they don't exacerbate my eczema. My skin type is sensitive and fair.”

Others advise caution due to potential breakouts or irritation:

“When i first started using the toner pads i thought they calmed down irritated areas really well … but every now and then … I got even more pimples … turns out I didn’t even give my face a chance to fully heal by sometimes using the toner pads.” 

“The toner pads were useless for me, they didn’t do anything, but again everyone is different.” 

And some recommend using them sparingly:

“Maybe don’t use it every day, just use it 3‑4 times a week

⚠️ Precautions & Tips

• Do not combine with strong AHA/BHA exfoliants—these pads already contain PHA, which could cause over-exfoliation if layered. 
• Patch-testing is recommended before full-face use, especially for sensitive or reactive skin.
• Start with 2–3 uses per week and gradually increase frequency as tolerated. 

🧴 Why Choose the Mini (2‑Pad) Version?

• Great for first-time users: sample the formula without investing in the full-size pack.
• Travel & trial-friendly: compact and lightweight for on-the-go skincare or short trips.
• Same ingredients and efficacy seen in full-size versions—just two single-use sheets.
