I bought the Gaedeong-sook pads for my teenage daughter who has acne, but it turns out these pads are not only great for her acne-prone skin, but also for my dry, sensitive skin in my 40s! The title might make you think it has a mugwort scent (prejudice), but the fragrance is not too strong, and it's incredibly moisturizing. Some pads can dry out quickly after use, but this product has such great moisture retention that I think it would be wonderful to use as a cleansing pad or makeup remover pad!
ConsThe only downside is the price, but I definitely need to stock up on Missha products when they're on sale!
TipThis product is suitable for all skin types, whether dry or oily, and can be used without any issues. What's more, the hydration power is excellent! It seems like it would be great for dry skin or soothing troubled skin.👍 It's satisfactory in all aspects of use, from cleansing to absorption.

I bought around 5 pads, and they are definitely soft. The employee at the store where I first bought the Hwahae said it's good for teenage acne, so I bought mists, creams, and cleansing foams and such. But I'm not sure if it works for me - the calming effect is only a little noticeable. After using it, my skin just feels a bit smoother, but it is definitely more moisturized. It's soft and gentle, and those with sensitive skin can use it well. The application is also smooth and soft.
ConsFirst, it stings terribly when it gets in the eyes! The ampoule drops from the sheet and it just gets into the eyes.. For me, the Hwahae doesn't really calm down the trouble well, and compared to it not working, the price is a bit expensive.
TipFirst, wash your face with a Hwahae cleansing foam made from mugwort. Then, apply a pad and wait 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the pad and let it absorb, then mist. Next, gently apply the Hwahae serum and let it absorb, then apply the Hwahae cream and let it absorb slightly. Place a blotting paper on top and remove it after about 1 minute. (Additionally, you can use a cleansing oil or an Innisfree cream.)

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe essence is so abundant, making it incredibly moisturizing and refreshing! It's great to use when your skin is feeling heated up. 👍🏻 The pad size is quite large, so it can cover your entire cheeks. It's not completely round, but rather has a concave shape, so when you apply it to your cheeks, it doesn't obstruct your eyes. When you feel a blemish coming up, using this helps it go away quickly. 🫶🏻
ConsPersonally, I feel that it has a moisturizing sensation, but lacks moisturizing power, so if you're looking for moisturizing effects, I'd recommend applying a moisturizing cream or trying another product.
TipTake care of your skincare routine and then split the pad in half to place the Pacturum on top! It's easy to neatly split it in half and place it. I've replaced it with a similar product that has a one-touch opening and closing mechanism, as rotating and opening it was too much of a hassle.

I primarily use it as a toner, but I would only recommend it to those who plan to use it as a face mask. It has a pleasant fragrance that seems to be good for the skin, with notes of something like mugwort. Although I've used about half the product, I haven't noticed any significant soothing effects. The ampoule is generously filled with a smooth, fluid texture.
ConsThis is not a cotton pad, but rather a single-layer, cotton-like sheet. When used for cleansing, it can be irritating to the skin. The pad itself is not rough, but the wiping motion can feel abrasive, so I likely won't repurchase this. Improving the pad material would be a good enhancement.

I tend to have a lot of heat on my face after showering, but when I apply this, I feel like my skin is well-hydrated and nicely calmed. - My makeup also seems to apply better the next day.
Cons- There is a clip, but it can't be stored inside the product lid, which is a bit disappointing. - At first, the ampoule is quite watery, so it tends to drip down. - The pad itself lacks a bit in adhesiveness.
TipStore it in the refrigerator and apply it when it's nice and cool.

The formula is similar to a toner, so it's not heavy, making it suitable for oily skin types as well. # Pad Texture The product page mentions that it's a 'tank pad', and it really does hold a lot of essence. The texture is similar to half a cotton pad, but a bit thicker. It's also easy to tear, which is great for using on specific areas like the nose and chin. # Pad Size The pad size is around 7cm, which is quite large. It's big enough to cover one cheek, which I really liked. # Fragrance The fragrance is similar to the mugwort line of ampoules I've tried - a strong herbal/medicinal scent. It's not a weak fragrance, but it does become more tolerable over time. Compared to the ampoules, the scent is less intense. # Essence The essence is very generous! The pad really absorbs a lot of it, so it doesn't dry out easily. Even after using the pad completely, there's still some essence left sloshing around. I was able to use the remaining essence on 8 cotton pads for a mask.
Cons# Packaging The packaging isn't the most user-friendly. Many pads these days come with a one-touch case for easy storage, but the mugwort pad has a twist-open container with no space to store the tweezers.
TipI'd recommend this pad for those looking for a moisture-focused product with a water-based formula, suitable for using as a sheet mask. However, if you're sensitive to strong fragrances or prefer more convenient packaging, this may not be the best option for you.

My mom pulled this out for me. At first, I didn't really like the design or the name, and I didn't want to use it, but since my mom gave it to me, I just used it. But it was great!!! My face was always burning hot due to the severe acne, but it helped reduce the heat and the moisture wasn't too bad either! And the pads are really big! They cover the entire cheek area!
ConsBut the pad material is too rough. The scent is also not great - it's not really a natural fragrance, so it's not really my style.

I had a great sleep..haha. ✅ It was very moisturizing and hydrating.
Cons✔ It didn't suit my skin at all, so I just tried it once and immediately stopped using it.
Tip🟡 I just used it on my body since it didn't suit my face. The mugwort scent lingers on my body..? 🟡 My elbows feel soft, smooth, and moisturized......
