Beauty pads have firmly taken their place among the popular enzyme peeling and scrubs. They are are aimed at exfoliating the skin, but, unlike rolls and scrubs, they work as much as possible
delicately. Peeling pads do not contain abrasive particles that "roll" over the face and can injure the skin. The pads do NOT exfoliate the skin mechanically.
Pads are soft cotton pads or napkins impregnated with a special compound. Often in the products contain AHA, BHA and PHA acids as active substances. Acids break bonds between the dead cells and the epidermis, after which the keratinized scales "fly off" from the skin.
Of course, one cannot say that all peeling pads are better than scrubs and enzyme peeling. You always need take into account the composition of the product and the characteristics of the skin. For example, normal skin without imperfections enzyme peelong, pads, and some scrubs (just not quite rough!) can work equally well.
But even enzyme peeling is contraindicated for problem skin, any scrubs - even more so. Exfoliating particles "scratch" inflammatory elements and promote the development of rashes. Therefore, for girls with acne, peeling pads are ideal.
Another great thing about the pads is that, in addition to exfoliating, they do a lot of useful functions in care. Depending on the composition, peeling discs can:
moisturize;
tone up;
even out the tone of the face;
cleanse the skin;
remove makeup;
have an anti-aging effect;
fight rashes and irritation;
eliminate flaking and dryness.
Active components are responsible for all these properties. Since the compositions of different cosmetic products differ, the spectrum of properties will also vary. Therefore, we always recommend before buying, study the list of ingredients and a complete description of the product. On our website store for each product is attached very detailed information about the composition and features components.
How to use the peeling pads?
Exfoliation (that is, the procedure for exfoliating the skin) is performed on average once a week. It is with this frequency that scrubs and enzyme peels are recommended.
But pads are more difficult. Some peeling discs need to be applied daily, even twice, while others only once every 7 days. The difference is due to the composition. For example, if the pads contain AHA, BHA, PHA acid in high concentration, they should not be used too often. Before buying pads be sure to ask the sales assistant how to use the product if this the information is not on the label or on the website.
