| I cut the pads in half. The pads are moist, but there is no extra essence in the tub. |
Thoughts:
- The tub didn't come with tweezers. So you must dip your fingers in every time.
- Opening and closing the tub all the time probably can make the pads dry. The tub says they are good for 12 months, but I think you should finish them sooner than that.
- The pads leave a bit sticky film on the skin, apparently it's something PHA's do? I can feel the film for a long time.
+ I feel like the pads are contributing to my skin's smoothness and clearness
+ They are not drying my skin, the pads can be used almost daily
+ I notice difference very quickly when using and not using the pads, usually my skin is better the next day already
+ Calming on active acne and redness
+ Gentle exfoliation with PHA 5% (Gluconolactone) and BHA 1% (Betaine Salicylate)
+ No scent

+ Probably suitable for all skin types, my combination skin has no problems at least
+ Soft pads, better quality ones than those cheapos I usually use on my face (but nothing extra ordinary about them still)

* Comparing the sample peeling pad by Neulii and this tub, the sample pouch had a lot more essence. The pads in the tub are not as moist, and the one at the top was actually on the dry side and I already thought I'd had to throw some extra essence in. But actually the rest of the pads are just right.
* The tub is ridiculously big. I don't know if it serves some purpose that the pads won't dry.
* I cut the pads in half so I get more use out of them. The half is still a good size and enough for my face and neck and decollete, but of course it's more comfortable to use the full pad. The tub has 70 pads.
* I believe the pads are effective because of Gluconolactone. I am looking into other products with PHA, going to order Garden of Wisdom's 10% PHA Serum at some point.
* I thought the pads and Neulii as a brand would be discontinued but now I see Neulii has just completely renewed their whole product line. Bio Water B9 Hydration Serum seems interesting. Not that expensive either at around 14 euros. I wonder if they are going to release samples of them?
Price:
15,98 USD
Bought from:
Iamlove-shop on ebay
Buy again?
If the pads still exist when I'm finished with the tub!
Worth the money?
Honestly I'm so surprised by Neulii's pads. They are doing a bit of everything in a gentle way. So if you are new in the world of toner/exfoliation pads, they are an excellent choice. The pads are actually very reasonably priced (=cheap) considering how much my skin likes them and that they will last me probably half a year because I cut the pads in half!
