  • Calming Botanicals for Irritated Skin: Niacinamide, Peony Root Extract, and the GESOLZA botanical complex work together to visibly calm facial redness and irritation.
  • Dual-Textured For A Glass-Skin Glow: The textured side physically polishes away buildup and blemishes while the soft cotton side smooths and refreshes skin; use 2-3 times weekly after cleansing.
  • Korean Skincare: Developed and manufactured in Korea using a modern K-beauty philosophy focused on gentle exfoliation, balancing botanicals, and barrier-conscious skin care for healthier-looking skin.

Key Benefits

  • Clears — Dissolves buildup and unclogs pores
  • Smooths — Refines rough, uneven texture
  • Calms — Reduces redness from breakouts and irritation
  • Brightens — Fades post-acne marks and evens skin tone

How to Use

After cleansing, use the textured side of the pad to gently polish skin in small circular motions, avoiding the eye and lip area. Then flip to the soft cotton side to smooth and refresh. Rinse off with lukewarm water after use. Use 2–3 times per week, AM or PM.

Follow with JIYU Toner Pads  twice a day to maintain daily glow, then JIYU NAD+ Anti-Aging Cream to lock in hydration and protect. Always wear SPF the morning after use.

Pro tip: Press a pad onto a single blemish for 5–10 minutes as a fast targeted spot treatment.

Where to Use

  • Face — T-zone, cheeks, chin (avoid eye area)
  • Body breakouts — chest, back, shoulders

 4 Acids. One Smoother Glow. 

A balanced blend of AHA, BHA, PHA & LHA for smoother, brighter-looking skin and refined pores.

Glycolic Acid (AHA)

Smooths the look of dull, rough, uneven skin texture.

Gluconolactone (PHA)

Gently exfoliates while helping skin stay soft and hydrated.

Salicylic Acid (BHA)

Helps unclog pores and clear away buildup for fresher-looking skin.

Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA)

Refines the appearance of pores and promotes a more even-looking complexion.

Balanced 4-Acid Blend

Four exfoliating acids, thoughtfully balanced for gentle yet effective skincare.

AHA + BHA + PHA + LHA

The 4-Acid System 

Four acids. Four depths. One gentle pad.

Most exfoliants lean on one acid and push the percentage until it works. That's where the stinging comes from. We split the work four ways instead. Glycolic (AHA) is the smallest acid molecule, so it resurfaces dull, rough texture. Salicylic (BHA) dissolves in oil, which is how it gets inside a clogged pore. Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA) carries a fatty chain that holds it at the very top, refining pores and tone. Gluconolactone (PHA) exfoliates gently and holds water while the other three work. No single acid has to be pushed hard enough to hurt. Clearer, smoother skin in 2–4 weeks, barrier intact.

        FAQs

        How often should I use the Cleansing Polish Pads?

        Use them 2–3 times per week after cleansing — not daily. Polish Pads are a targeted reset step, not a daily product. Using them more often can overdo the exfoliation and stress your barrier. If you have very sensitive skin, start with once a week and build up.

        Is this safe for sensitive skin?

        Yes. The formula is built around our patented GESOLZA™ calming complex (Sweet Wormwood + Citron + Pine Tree Leaf) and barrier-supportive ingredients like Glycerin and Niacinamide — specifically chosen to help reduce irritation while the acids do their work. That said, we recommend a patch test on your inner arm before first use, and starting at 1× per week if you have a history of reactive skin.

        Can I use these with retinol or other strong actives?

        Avoid layering the Polish Pads with retinol, retinal, prescription tretinoin, or other strong acids on the same night. Alternate them on opposite nights. On Polish nights, follow with the JIYU Toner Pads and NAD+ Cream, then resume your retinoid on non-Polish nights.

        Where else can I use the pads besides my face?

        Anywhere you deal with breakouts, congestion, or rough texture: chest, back, shoulders, upper arms, and even the bumpy keratosis-prone areas on the backs of the arms. Avoid broken or inflamed skin, eczema, and the eye area.

        Will this work on cystic acne?

        The Polish Pads are formulated to help with surface breakouts, clogged pores, congestion, and post-acne red marks. They are not a treatment for cystic or hormonal acne, which needs to be addressed with a dermatologist. If you struggle with cystic breakouts, we recommend talking to a derm about a prescription plan and using the Polish Pads alongside it (with your derm's OK) for the surface-level clearing.
