It's a good quality product. It just wasn't for me. I had no negative effects, but it didn't do anything positive for me either. Just the fact that it didn't do anything negative, though, is enough for me to give it a good rating.

I've never tried a toner pad that you leave on your face, but i'm so glad I tried this one! It doesn't contain silicone or anything that breaks me out and have very dry acne prone skin. It reduces redness of angry active acne while hydrating the areas where my smile lines are, which has been a crucial part of my process to get rid of them (along with microdart wrinkle patches). Love these so Show more
