Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Face Pads

These pads are a great addition to anyone's skincare routine (even GUYS), especially if you’re serious about maintaining clear and even skin. These pads are packed with glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid, which work together to exfoliate, even out skin tone, and tackle blemishes. Over time, you’ll notice a real difference in your skin’s texture and clarity. The key to getting the most out of these pads is consistency. Using them regularly at night helps to gradually resurface your skin, making it smoother and more refined. They’re effective yet gentle enough for nightly use, and the long-term benefits are worth the commitment. What makes these pads even better is how well they work with other night time skincare products. Pairing them with your favorite serums and moisturizers boosts their effectiveness and helps you wake up with fresher, clearer skin. If you’re into skincare and want to see real results, these pads are definitely worth trying. Personally I use a moisturiser and eye repair cream nightly, the pads are great prior to these products.

So in love with these pads! It says to use these 2-3 times a week, but I use them every evening. If you have very sensitive skin, you should only use once a week They contain 5% glycolic acid and salicylic acid which has given me smooth, clear, and glowing skin.. You really notice the difference after the first use. Pores look super clean. Glycolic acid literally dissolves dead skin cells. Its an exfoliator without the scrubbing. It works on a ‘chemical’ level. The salicylic acid gets right inside your pores and gets all the junk out. So easy to use and as long as you remember to close the lid firmly afterwards, they say super moist and loaded with product. You just need to wipe one pad across face and neck after cleansing. If you suffer from Keratosis Pilaris (red bumps) or breakouts on the body you can also use the pads on these areas. Remember to use SPF the next day. I use SPF 50 everyday anyway, but I know a lot of people don’t – unless it’s sunny. Definitely recommend!

Good product makes my skin brighter and softer

The reviews on this really annoy me! It looks like no one actually reads about what the product is supposed to do - it is a chemical exfoliator of glycolic acid at 5%, it is highly likely it will make your skin red, feel hot and burn a little. It says in the description if you have sensitive skin try the lower % ones first! It’s possible your skin will react to this so read the description properly before buying then coming to the reviews to moan. The product does what it’s supposed to do! This works amazingly for me - I have dry skin, acne scarring etc. After using for 1/2 weeks all of my spots had gone and my scarring was looking significantly better. I’ve continued use for a month now (1-2 times a week, sometimes just once a week) and it works wonders!! My skin feels amazing after - feels soft, dewy, hydrated and looks great after makeup (I follow my usual skin care routine the morning after, the product advises to use at night but if I use in the day I’ll do the same and just let it sit for 20 mins before doing the rest of my skincare!)

I use these really regularly, they are great for anti aging, great for spots, great for managing flare ups of Hidradenitis suppurativa and ingrown hairs. Gentle enough for most skin.

I am 40 and have oily skin. These glycolic pads are the best I've found for sweeping over my face after cleansing and before serum. They are a 10% glycolic acid formula (rather than the weaker 5% formula of most glycolic toners) and I found they gave a similar result to Pixi Glow Tonic - they definitely have a brightening, smoothing effect on my skin which gives a more youthful appearance. I usually follow up with a light hydrating serum and a couple of drops of Clarins Lotus Oil in lieu of a moisturiser, but if you have normal/dry skin you could just as easily follow up with a rich night cream. I find my skin absorbs products really well after using these pads. I am pale, which means my skin tone can look very uneven at times, and I think these pads do help to even things out a bit and give me a bit more radiance, which my skin would otherwise lack. I also find that they reduce oiliness without being too harsh or drying and I have had far fewer breakouts since I started using them combination with a balancing oil. They've become a vital part of my routine and are usually reasonably priced. They're also very convenient, especially for travelling, as I don't have to carry a pack of cotton wool pads in addition to a toner.

I've had problems with my skin since I had my thyroid removed and these were recommended to me to try to manage the shine. I've had them over a month now and honestly haven't noticed a great deal of difference. They are really thin so it can be difficult to tell if you only have 1 and they don't smell all that great, kind of a chemical orangey type smell. I only really notice a difference for an hour or so after I've used them and then can feel my skin getting oily again so the effects don't last all that long. I have heard they have worked for others though so maybe it's just my skin type that's the problem.

This is a liquid exfoliatant that eats away at the dead skin cells on the top of your skin thanks to the different acids. It will make your skin to look smoother and refract light better and make up will apply nicer on top. I always repurchase these and I love them. You just sweep one across your face and neck (I do it every other night) and then allow to dry and then apply my night serum and cream and then wash my face in the morning and make sure to wear SPF. It makes my skin glowy and smooth, it helps my pores to look smaller and if you press a pad on top of a spot it helps settle it down (although it can sting a little) thanks to the acids in them. I would recommend starting to use these 2-3 times a week - never twice in a row - and you can then see how your skin works with them. Do not worry about the fact that acids are involved, they won't burn you and the percentage is too low to cause any real lasting damage but it can make your skin more sensitive if you overuse them. Make sure to hydrate your skin after use and always wear SPF the next day (minimum of 30 UVA and UVB). Once a week maybe use a more gritty exfoliater.
