The pads are too gentle to feel like you're exfoliating your face. However, the product contains poly-hydroxy acids (lactobionic acid and gluconolactone), which encourage the exfoliation and regrowth of skin. In the week that I've been using these pads, I've already noticed an improvement in overall appearance. Hyperpigmentation from old acne scars have slightly faded, and skin tone is a little more even.
Its really nice calming pad. It
s hard at first to say if its working, so I gave it a fair amount of time to see. I
m already at almost half of jar, and I must say.....Its working ! It
s definitely exfoliating, but mildly. I use it only once a day, at evening. My skin became very soft, almost like silk. I cant stop touching it and feeling how smooth it is. (It
s a bad habit though :D ). I havent seen any BHA or AHA or Glycolic there, but I guess it
s Lactacid Acid what might do the job.
The only think I could complain if ever...is that I wish it could be more hydrating. Its very watery toner, and absorbs very quickly, almost too quickly for my peference. I like rich, almost essence toners, so this one seems a bit less hydrating, but very calming. Sometimes I use it as a treatment in the evening, and leave pads on my red cheeks. It
s really helping, but as I said it could take a bit more time to soak in.
Pads are a bit on "plastic side" than on "gauze or cotton". But its not a problem for me, I was just a bit suprised.
s a great product and I would recommend it for all people with sensitive skin looking for everyday, mild exfoliation.
Overall, it
