Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

  • It helps improve product application.

Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.

This is skin texture's final boss. After using this, the texture, gone. Skin, smooth. I started using this everyday once I got it, but I haven't gotten any irritation or acne, so that's good. The first few weeks you definitely see a difference in texture. I just hate how it's always sold out.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this soooo much. First of all, it literally smells like a spa, it comes with a cute little toner pad plucker so that your fingers don’t cross contaminate the contents. I even showed it to my neighbours who are also obsessed with Korean skincare and they were so jealous of how it looks. But the use was even better. The needley toner pads are double sided one side being rough and the other smooth so it exfoliates really well combined with the gentle moisture the toner provides. What I love about these is how BIG they are! I wash my face double cleansing, exfoliate and the needley pads brush off the remaining debris and dead skin cells I otherwise wouldn’t have seen. The best part about these is that you can use them everyday if you want to. I only use mine every other day sometimes only twice a week. Some people cut them in half since they’re so big and they last even LONGER. I really cherish mine. They make a big difference to my skin and are at times the single contributor to preventing a breakout because it like brings a clean slate to my face so it’s wiped of all gunk.

I wanted to love these pads because the price is great but they are tiny and so thin and flimsy that they're difficult to use. Neither side of the pads are textured so you can really only use the pads to apply product but cannot use them to 'clean' your skin. To their credit, they are extremely soaked in product which I always appreciate.
