Those pads are for delicate cleansing, soft exfoliation and moisturizing. The surface of the pad has rough and smooth sides. I was convinced to buy those pads because of two things. Firstly, the core ingredient is Centella Asiatica (10%) which is famous for its wide therapeutic and anti-age actions. Secondly, the pad sample containing two pieces of pad inside is a convenient solution for travelling. There is a full-sized version as well with 70 pads in it.
The rich Centella Asiatica extract is not the only active ingredient. Within other ingredients you can find BHA acid to help eliminate dead skin cells, asiatic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties, helps reducing swelling, stimulates hyaluronic acid and collagen synthesis. It also contains madecassic acid, which increases the production of collagen and elastin, reduces swelling, and allantoin, which is responsible for soft exfoliation. More moisturizing and soothing ingredients can be found with arginin, helping with cellular renewal. Licorice root extract is a great brightening agent. Besides, there is also tea tree leaf oil extract.
The manufacturer suggests to use these pads not only for face, neck and decollete, but also for elbows, lips, eye lids, back, breast and even for heels.
So far, I am liking Purito Centella pads. The scent is not very pronounced, there is no need to either rinse the face off after using the pad or apply toner afterwards. Pads are great not only for cleansing but also for moisturizing. The skin feels smoother, cleaner and refreshed as it should be after exfoliation. And since these pads are so mild and gentle, all skin types can benefit from them, including sensitive type.
