Another ‘cult’ product that people swear by, I can see why! I’ve been using these for a few years now and they probably make it into my rotation once a week or every other week. It has a super combination of AHAs, BHA, soothing ingredients and a little bit of retinol to really get into your skin and work some magic, think of it as a little mini chemical peel at home.

I love the results this gives, it feels like a powerhouse of an exfoliater and it leaves your skins smooth, glowing and prepped for whatever you want the next day.

I also love that there are 3 strengths so you can pick whatever will suit your skin and still get the wonderful benefits. There's an ultra gentle version and also extra strength.

I don’t love the application method. You have two pads to use and you keep wiping them until they’re basically dry and the product is all gone from them. It can feel a little laborious and irritating on the skin while you wipe BUT I love the results so I keep at it.

What is it meant to do for your skin?

Get rid of dead skin cells
Help with unclogging pores
Help with skin tone and texture
Helps with smoothing fine lines
Helps with hydration

Key ingredients:

First ‘pad’ has - A combo of AHAs (glycolic, lactic, mandelic, citric acids) and a BHA (salicylic acid).
- To help with exfoliating skin, unclogging pores, helping with appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
Second ‘pad’ has - Retinol, resveratrol (an antioxidant), green tea extract and chamomile
- To help with elasticity, hydration, protecting from environmental damage, reducing irritation and soothing skin

How I use it:

I always use it at night so the lovely ingredients can get to work while I sleep, uninterrupted. I’ve seen people use them in the morning but given they’re actives and with the little bit of retinol, I prefer night time
I use it right before bed, so my routine is typically
- Shower around 7:30pm and put something light and hydrating on like the Laneige Cream Mist
- Before bed, use these peel pads
- I don’t add any moisturiser or anything over it, I like for the ingredients to just do their thing

What I love about it:

I can really see and feel the difference on my skin after using these!

What I don't love about it:

I really don’t like the application method! The constant wiping feels a bit much and takes a bit of time BUT I’ve been doing it because I love the results. It also feels a little wasteful with the packaging.
