Smart Solution

Soft and cushiony, these beauty pads are designed to deliver toner or essence to skin more effectively than traditional cotton pads by soaking up liquid product and then releasing it back when pressed onto skin. Made with a pulp and rayon blend, these pads do not pill easily and are also excellent for making your own sheet masks at home.

Why We Love it

Use these pads and you will only need "1/3" of the amount of liquid skincare product that you would normally use.


What to Expect

The Scents – Scent-free

The Texture – Soft pad (pulp and rayon blend)


160 pads / box

Use Apply an appropriate amount of product to cotton pad for application on the face. Each pad is meant for one-time use. To create your own toner mask: apply toner or essence (we highly suggest PKY Essence Toner) to pad until thoroughly soaked. Apply to face (using as many pads as necessary to cover the face or the desired treatment area) and leave on for 10-15 minutes.

So thin I love it!

These were even thinner than the ones I got from a different brand on amazon! Im in love! They really help with making your essences or toners last longer! They are soft and glide so well over the skin. My reactive skin doesn’t seem to mind!

Awesome

I was not expecting these pads to be so impactful in my routine. They are very THIN but that means they hold the product instead of sucking it all up. You don’t need very much product at all. Overall, VERY pleased. Will buy again.

Perfect!

Perfect cotton pads. Thin enough for toners, BHA solution, spreads product evenly over face. Doesn’t ’soak up’ product like heavier cotton pads. Also doubles as face mask by soaking multiple pads in hydrating toners/serums etc and placing on face, forehead, cheeks, nose and chin! Love!

Awesome little cotton pads for diy face masks

I love these! They're delightfully small, soft, and work great as a diy face mask.
I love saturating them with a serum I bought here and just layering my face with them. A lot of face masks are unevenly sized and don't fit my big, round face but with thi I get the coverage I want. I love them and am halfway through my box, so I will buy more when I'm almost out

LOVE THESE!

I bought them once and I haven’t stopped they are so good and my toner lasts longer since the cotton pads don’t absorb all the product.

Love them!

Will definitely repurchase! These cotton pads are thin but super sturdy and can hold a lot of product. I actually just cut them in half now when I'm applying toner and its great.

Very thin.

The pads I received are much thinner than I expected, making it hard to actually use them. When I first used it, the pads broke apart and it was difficult to actually apply product. I ordered some pads from Shiseido and those worked a lot better for me (in addition to some pads I purchased from Target). The price of these pads is exceptional, but I wish they were of better quality. But I guess you get what you pay for.

WOW!

Let me just start by saying, I've only been using these cotton pads for no more than three days and I'm in love. They are thin, small, and very flexible. You may worry that they'll break cause they're too thin but no, it doesn't rip or leaves behind any cotton threading/residue. I am also using literally using less than half of what i normally would use. I also like to use my toner as a ten minute mask sometimes and would soak my cotton pads and leave it on my face. I love how the entire pad would slowly absorb the product and within seconds, the entire pad is soaked.

It's so innovative and creative. I would definitely buy again, especially for the price.

Great Pads

Great pads. They’re small and quite thin but they hold a good amount of toner, so you really are using less toner than a traditional pad. Plus they’re great to cut in half, soak in essence and use as under eye masks. Definitely on my buy again list.

Perfect

These cotton doesn’t absorb my skin products so it saves me more! The quantity of these cotton pads are also amazing!! Lasted me for 2 whole months! I love this so much this is my second order and I gave them away to spread the love for these cottons!!

Great!

They’re great, I’ve been using cotton rounds for a long time and I didn’t realize how much product I wasted with those. These are a bit thin, so folding them in half might be necessary to keep them under control. But I really like them.

Glad I tried these

I had been using those cotton rounds you find in every store without ever giving it much thought. I tried the Pyunkang Yul pads on a whim and they are far superior! Like previous reviewers have stated here, there's no fuzz left behind, they hold your product without totally soaking it up/wasting it like traditional cotton rounds do. I use them to remove eye makeup and to apply toner.

Awesome idea!!!

They do a GREAT job of transferring product to your face, without wasting hardly any product. So much less waste than traditional cotton pads. I won’t go back!

Amazing quality.

I've never used any other cotton pads other than the ones you find at the drugstore, but trying these has changed my skincare for the better! These cotton pads don't absorb products that easily, instead it transfers all that goodness right onto your skin! And it doesn't pill. Will definitely repurchase!

Great product

I really love these. They're the perfect size and don't leave any unwanted fibers left behind. Will purchase again.

Great for saving product

These are great, because they don't absorb a ton of product, which keeps you from using more than you need to for a simple swipe. They're not quite as soft as cotton pads, though, so if you have sensitive skin, you may find them irritating. I don't have a problem with them, though.

I love these for eye makeup removal and especially for cleaning up small mistakes with makeup. Terrific
