Bio-Peel Gauze Peeling Pads (Lemon, 8 pcs)

This is one of my favorite exfoliating pads! I like to cut them in half since the pad is so large. The smell is so pleasant and almost reminds me of grape juice. One side is exfoliating and the other is smooth. Love this and is definitely a staple

I've been thoroughly researching Korean skincare for the last week, and this was one of the products that was recommended to try as part of the 10 step routine. I checked reviews on various sites and this seems to be a favorite of women in Korea.Firstly, the container is larger than I expected, so does take up a bit of space, but it's no issue to me. It has a strong lid that locks in all of the liquid, so these pads will never dry out, which is great.Just want to mention that there are 2 other Bio-peels from this same line, which have different scents and offer different benefits. I read that the lemon is a particular favorite for using prior to applying makeup as it helps the makeup to go on smoothly and makes the skin glow underneath....*The Lemon Bio-Peel: offers additional benefits of brightening and complexion correcting lemon ingredients for customers who suffer from pigmentation and complexion issues.*The Green Tea Bio-Peel offers pore refining and calming benefits of green tea for customers who would like to receive skin refreshing benefits while exfoliating.*The Wine Bio-Peel: contains resveratrol which offers anti-oxidant benefits for customers who would like to receive firming and anti-aging benefits additionally while exfoliating.The smell on this one is more fruity than it is wine-like, but in my opinion a really pleasant smell and not over powering at all.The pad has two sides - one is a gentle exfoliator and the other is a smooth pad that you use as step 2 to wipe away the skin after exfoliation. I was so excited to use it that I ended up using the wrong side initially, lol. The exfoliator side is very gentle and not at all like the regular abrasive exfoliators you get in the stores. Because it's so gentle you might be tempted to over scrub your face with it because it may not feel like the exfoliator is actually doing anything, but it is!! I've read reviews where some reported they over scrubbed and ending up with sore skin as a result, so just be cautious of that when using!This obviously works best when your skin is already properly cleansed beforehand!! Also - make sure you wash it off with warm water, it's not designed to be left on the skin. When using it I went over my face for a good few minutes before washing off with warm water. I wanted to really work the chemicals into my skin and target buildup of dry skin round my nose. They do recommend spending a bit more time on trouble areas that you have. The pads contain chemicals that are known for fighting acne and especially blackheads, which is one of the reasons I bought this. And it leaves your skin feeling so soft afterwards! Some on here have complained about it being sticky. I'm really not sure what you expect, because it is a chemical exfoliator, so it's to be expected, and I actually like the way it makes my skin feel. But it's not at all sticky once you rinse it off.I've only used the pads once so far (they arrived yesterday) and it's recommended you only use them twice per week, so I think they will last a while. I have dry skin, so my usual routine is to use a washcloth in the shower everyday to get rid of dry flaky skin (which is somewhat effective), but it's the morning after using this product and I can report that I have no dry skin at all on my face! I did, however, use the Missha Essence mist on my face immediately after the exfoliating pad, but my face was already soft to begin with and no dry skin at all after using it. Not only is my face soft today (the morning after) but I'm noticing less blackheads also.Would highly recommend buying this. At the time of my purchase I didn't realize there were two other bio-peels with different scents and benefits. All of them are said to exfoliate the same. This red wine one seems to be more focused on anti aging (but does contain chemicals/acid that treats acne, especially blackheads), whereas the other two are for brightening/pigmentation and skin refreshing. I will have a guess that maybe the lemon and green tea would be especially beneficial for acne because they are ingredients regularly use to fight pimples. I'm considering trying the green tea one!Hope this review helps!

I LOVE this product so much, it's on "holy grail" status in my evening skincare routine. It smells like a grape jolly-rancher, which may not be for everyone (especially if you're sensitive to scents), but I love it! I have combination skin-- oily T-zone and dry cheeks-- that has hyper-pigmentation, large pores around the nose / cheek / temple area and acne scars from picking at my face. Also, my skin was looking very dull and congested from winter. So after some careful online research, I decided to try this product because it combines both a manual and chemical exfoliation process using both Resveratrol and lactic acid. I noticed visible results-- softer and smoother skin-- after the first use and became hooked.After using this 2x a week for a month, the improvement is so significant that even my mother (who is very observant / critical of my skin in the way that only mothers can be) remarked on how much better my skin looks. The discolorations are fading, pores are more refined, and stubborn little bumps on the sides of my nose have disappeared. My complexion is smoother and brighter to the point where I can confidently wear a tinted moisturizer instead of full coverage foundation--which is awesome now that the weather is getting hotter / sweatier.Here's a breakdown of how I use this:- Double cleanse with oil, followed by cream cleanser (those who follow the Korean skin care regime will know what this means)- Take one pad and use the textured, gauzy side first-- buffing in gentle circular motions all over your face , neck, and decolletage.- Stop to admire the all the gunk that came from your face & neck while the Resveratrol and lactic acid essence seeps into your skin.- Flip pad over, and swipe the softer,quilted side over your face and neck.- Product instructs you to "rise with lukewarm water", but I just gently pat my face with a cool, damp washcloth to absorb the excess essence.- Continue with your regular skin-care routine ( toner, sheet mask, serums, eye cream, moisturizer, etc...)
