NIP + FAB Glycolic Fix Night Pads Extreme – 5% Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Facial Pads with Salicylic Acid (BHA) for Resurfacing, Deep Pore Clearing & Skin Radiance, 60 Pads

I am 40 and have oily skin. These glycolic pads are the best I've found for sweeping over my face after cleansing and before serum. They are a 10% glycolic acid formula (rather than the weaker 5% formula of most glycolic toners) and I found they gave a similar result to Pixi Glow Tonic - they definitely have a brightening, smoothing effect on my skin which gives a more youthful appearance. I usually follow up with a light hydrating serum and a couple of drops of Clarins Lotus Oil in lieu of a moisturiser, but if you have normal/dry skin you could just as easily follow up with a rich night cream. I find my skin absorbs products really well after using these pads. I am pale, which means my skin tone can look very uneven at times, and I think these pads do help to even things out a bit and give me a bit more radiance, which my skin would otherwise lack. I also find that they reduce oiliness without being too harsh or drying and I have had far fewer breakouts since I started using them combination with a balancing oil. They've become a vital part of my routine and are usually reasonably priced. They're also very convenient, especially for travelling, as I don't have to carry a pack of cotton wool pads in addition to a toner.

These pads are a great addition to anyone's skincare routine (even GUYS), especially if you’re serious about maintaining clear and even skin. These pads are packed with glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and hyaluronic acid, which work together to exfoliate, even out skin tone, and tackle blemishes. Over time, you’ll notice a real difference in your skin’s texture and clarity. The key to getting the most out of these pads is consistency. Using them regularly at night helps to gradually resurface your skin, making it smoother and more refined. They’re effective yet gentle enough for nightly use, and the long-term benefits are worth the commitment. What makes these pads even better is how well they work with other night time skincare products. Pairing them with your favorite serums and moisturizers boosts their effectiveness and helps you wake up with fresher, clearer skin. If you’re into skincare and want to see real results, these pads are definitely worth trying. Personally I use a moisturiser and eye repair cream nightly, the pads are great prior to these products.

I saw it on a deal on amazon and so thought I would try it. I used to have adult cystic acne. I didnt get a lot...not clusters all over the face or so, but sometimes localised to some areas of the face. These generally resolved over the years thankfully... but I would still get them randomly. Generally when they start disappearing for me.... the cystic region would reduce in size and flatten over several weeks but the area where the cystic spot was, would darken and stay on for months (even though Im not out in the sun), till it would slowly fade away. So to prevent these random occurrences, I adapted quite a lengthy routine for keeping my face clean by using neutrogena salicyclic acid face wash, face scrubs, face masks, facial oils, aloe vera, organic face creams and also by not touching my face (haha) etc. And recently I went back to using facial brush. I also generally like to use natural products as much as possible, where I can. But recently I was getting more spots in one area of the face, which again would leave areas pigmented after the spots resolved...so I would be left with flat, dark, small spots. And these pigmented areas would stay on for months till they faded. I started reading up about chemical peels through an article on a medical journal and a few generic websites, which demonstrated that these post inflammatory hyperpigmentations areas can be faded faster. And glycolic acid can help shed the superficial layers of the skin to hasten that. So I thought I would try it out. There are 60 pads in a box. The pads are soaked in a solution and very thin. The pad's one side is flat surfaced and other side is textured. There is not a lot of instructions on the tub- just basic instructions, which makes you think it musnt be too potent. Initially I followed the advise and only used it once a week. I have been using it for a few weeks now and I have been using it more frequently in a week too. It definitely stings when one is using it after washing their face. And it does redden the areas temporarily too. Ive had it a few times where my cheeks are peeling and more drier than usual but thats normal for chemical peels. Just moisturise more. I cannot exactly say that it is definitely improving my skin as I am using other products/routine with it, which I had abandoned previously...i.e. facial brush I am not getting any new big spots/pimples/zits/acne since Ive been using it. I would either get spots in areas where it cant be seen (near the temple, where strands of hair would fall and cover) or they are be small whitehead spots which do not cause any localised inflammation and vanish on their own.... so there is no post inflammatory hyperpigmentation at the moment. So YAY! I would like to give it more time to see how well it works. Therefore I am only awarding it 4 stars however if it shows a lasting change I am more than happy to go back and change my rating.

So in love with these pads! It says to use these 2-3 times a week, but I use them every evening. If you have very sensitive skin, you should only use once a week They contain 5% glycolic acid and salicylic acid which has given me smooth, clear, and glowing skin.. You really notice the difference after the first use. Pores look super clean. Glycolic acid literally dissolves dead skin cells. Its an exfoliator without the scrubbing. It works on a ‘chemical’ level. The salicylic acid gets right inside your pores and gets all the junk out. So easy to use and as long as you remember to close the lid firmly afterwards, they say super moist and loaded with product. You just need to wipe one pad across face and neck after cleansing. If you suffer from Keratosis Pilaris (red bumps) or breakouts on the body you can also use the pads on these areas. Remember to use SPF the next day. I use SPF 50 everyday anyway, but I know a lot of people don’t – unless it’s sunny. Definitely recommend!

ottimo prodotto, lo sto usando tutti i giorni su viso e décolleté, ho un problema di brufoletti e piccole discromie della pelle ( leggere cmq non grosse discromie) devo dire che da quando lo uso ( 15 gg,) la mia pelle è visibilmente migliorata, grana più sottile, pelle più liscia, le discromie e i piccoli segnetti lasciati dai brufoli che avevo toccacciato sono quasi del tutto scomparsi. un valido aiuto al ricambio cellulare. resta un prodotto delicato sulla pelle. comodo xche i dischetti sono già pre-imbevuti di soluzione, e un dischetto basta tranquillamente per passare tutto il viso, collo e décolleté.

De día uso sí o sí un protector solar SPF 30+ ó 50+ Evito combinarlos en la misma rutina con: Retinol o derivados de vitamina A Vitamina C (ácido ascórbico) Otros AHA/BHA (salicílico, láctico, mandélico) Peróxido de benzoilo Exfoliantes físicos agresivos Tratamientos despigmentantes fuertes. Estos últimos los dejo para la rutina la mañana siguiente tras lavar la piel del rostro. Tomo las siguientes precauciones: No lo uso sobre la piel irritada o con heridas. Evito el contorno de ojos. Conclusión: son ideales para limpiar y exfoliar piel grasa y congestionada, pero deben usarse con moderación y sin mezclar con activos fuertes.

Avevo già acquistato questi dischetti qualche mese fa, li comprai da un altro venditore sempre su Amazon... La prima volta che li ho provati non mi hanno causato un effetto del genere, a questo acquisto questo prodotto mi ha provocato bruciore e irritazione, lasciandomi la pelle rossissima. Molto delusa. Aggiornamento: Ho richiesto il rimborso e Amazon mi ha rimborsato i soldi dell'articolo.
