One Step Original Clear Pad

Korea ranking #20 tonerUS stock

Pre-soaked toner pads for skin that breaks out: one swipe clears leftover residue and gently decongests pores in the same step. The formula is mostly willow bark water with a low dose of betaine salicylate, a mild BHA, so it exfoliates without the sting many acid pads have. Made with oily and blemish-prone skin in mind.

More detail

Each pad is soaked in 85.9% willow bark water — a natural source of salicin — plus 1% betaine salicylate, a gentle BHA that loosens the dead skin and oil clogging pores; panthenol and a touch of tea tree oil round out the formula. The pads are dual-textured: swipe the embossed side over cleansed skin (avoiding the eye area), then flip to the smooth side to pick up remaining debris. COSRX rates it gentle enough for daily use, though if you're new to acids it's reasonable to start every other day. Use a light hand with the textured side — scrubbing hard defeats the gentleness. And as with any exfoliating acid, daily sunscreen matters while this is in your routine.
