Viral score 97 — a weather report, not a halo.

Dual-texture pads with a mild AHA complex for the look of tighter pores. One side exfoliates, the other soothes. Easy to overuse — we will say that first.

Why it is on the desk: Viral score is high because the camera loves a pore. Real life loves a pad you can do in thirty seconds. Cap it at once a night, not a twice-a-day hobby.
How we use it: Sweep the rough side on T-zone, smooth side on cheeks. Night only. Then a bland moisturizer. Skip if your barrier is already loud.
Notable ingredients: Lactic acidGlycolic acidNiacinamideAllantoin

The short version

Verdict

Pore pads went viral because cameras love a pore. Used nightly they will also love a peel. T-zone only, nights only, never on a face that is already loud.

Best for

Oily and combination T-zones that can handle a few acids a week.

Skip if

Dry, peeling, or 'I already used glycolic tonight' skin. A pad is not a personality.

Texture: Drench-soaked cotton pad, slight tingle
Size: 70 pads
Skin: oily, combo
Brief: pores, acne, glow

Instead? Glycolic 7% is a liquid you control. Pads are convenient and easier to overuse.
