TikToker Christine (@christine_esthetics) said the latest K-beauty trend in Korea is toner pads.

"K-beauty trend for glass skin," she began in the clip.

“If you’ve never heard of toner pads before, they’re basically just cotton pads that are soaked in toner, but the formula is more potent than a regular toner."

Speaking to those with acne-prone skin, she said to go for the $25 Anua Heartleaf Clear Pads, $25 Medicube Zero Pore Pad, and the $22 Mediheal Blemish Pads.

Unlike liquid toners, which are simply applied to your skin by hand, all of these pads have a dual purpose.

“They can be used as a sheet mask,” she said, noting that the Mediheal ones make for the best masks.

“Because the cotton pads are super stretchy, so it conforms to your face shape and can cover the entire area.”

Praising the Mediheal formula, she said the blemish pad “is supposed to fade dark spots in four weeks and prevent breakouts,” thanks to the main ingredients.

While the ingredient madecassoside targets uneven skin, centella asiatica calms and soothes inflamed skin.

To demonstrate how it’s done, Christine placed one full pad on each cheek, one on her forehead, and cut another in half to use on her nose and chin.

She then used her hands to spread the formula across every inch of her skin.

“I apply the excess from the pads to the uncovered areas of my face.”

After letting those pads sit for ten minutes, she removed them and patted the excess into her face.

“Skin will be hydrated and glowing after,” she raved, showing the undeniable results.

“Toner pads are one of my favorite steps in my routine. I can actually see and feel the difference after,” she wrote in the caption.
