I usually use thicker cotton pads to apply toner, so I did not know what to expect when I was receiving these. But these are just like tiny sheet masks! They absorb toner very well and retain that moisture so that you can place them on focus areas on your face. I like to soak two of these pads in toner and then place them under my eyes for about 15 minutes. Very refreshing, and the pads are soft. I really like them and I'll definitely be purchasing more of these in the future.
