ABIB Toner Pad Guide: Dark Spots, Redness or Pores
Three ABIB pads make the first step after cleansing more useful
A toner pad should solve a clear problem. ABIB Glutathiosome focuses on dark spots and uneven-looking tone, Heartleaf settles visible redness and heat, while Green LHA clears excess oil and clogged-looking pores.
Each jar combines a pre-soaked toner step with a targeted 5–10 minute mini mask. Start with the concern that affects your skin most, use that pad consistently, then follow with serum and moisturiser.

All three work after cleansing and need no rinse. The right match comes down to the result you want from that first skincare step.
Glutathiosome turns the toner step into focused tone care
Old breakout marks can leave the complexion looking patchy even when the skin feels smooth. This is the tone-focused option: it places glutathione, niacinamide and three forms of vitamin C directly into the first leave-on step.
Its 7cm triple-layer pad holds a generous amount of essence and can be split into thinner pieces for the cheeks, forehead or any area where uneven-looking tone is most noticeable.
Best fit: This is the focused choice for making post-acne marks, dull patches and uneven-looking tone less visible.
The measured improvement rises from 9.43% after 3 days to 17.81% after 4 weeks. Consistent use gives post-acne marks and uneven-looking tone focused daily care.
Heartleaf gives unsettled skin a calm, moisture-first step
When the face looks flushed, feels warm or reacts easily to long days and changing weather, this is the clearest everyday match. The essence contains 40,000ppm heartleaf extract to support a comfortable, fresh-looking complexion.
The dual-sided cotton pad makes application practical. Use the embossed side to sweep away loose residue and rough surface buildup, then place the smooth side on red or dry areas as a 5–10 minute mini mask.
Best fit: This is the comfort-first choice for skin that often feels warm, looks red or needs more hydration.
After heat irritation, skin temperature dropped by 5.4°C. Signs of chemical irritation decreased by 48.07%, while signs of physical irritation decreased by 17.42%. Heartleaf is the clear match for skin that becomes warm, red or easily unsettled.
Green LHA clears the surface so pores look cleaner and smoother
When the T-zone becomes shiny, foundation catches on rough texture or blackheads and whiteheads keep returning, this is the pore-focused option. Green LHA and 0.45% BHA loosen oil and surface buildup in a controlled leave-on step.
The 7cm embossed pad can be swept over the face, then split along its perforation to sit neatly on the nose, chin or cheeks for 5–10 minutes. A one-touch cap and included tweezers keep daily use quick and clean.
Best fit: This is the pore-focused choice for less shine, cleaner-looking pores and smoother texture through the T-zone.
After two weeks, measured pore volume improved by 22.40%, depth by 17.82% and area by 17.46%. Green LHA is the strongest match when excess oil and clogged-looking pores are the daily problem.
Let the strongest concern choose your first pad
A clear first choice keeps the routine easy to follow and makes the result easier to judge.
Turn one pre-soaked pad into a complete toner step
Use clean tweezers, take one pad and close the lid promptly so the remaining pads stay saturated.
Start on freshly cleansed skin so the essence meets the surface directly.
Sweep gently across the face, moving from the centre outward and avoiding the eye area.
Place the smooth side or split pieces where your main concern is most visible.
Remove the pad, pat in the remaining essence, then apply serum and moisturiser. No rinse is needed.
Use one primary pad, then build the rest of the routine around it
Place the pad immediately after cleansing. It replaces the separate toner-and-cotton-pad step and gives you a ready-made mini mask whenever one area needs extra attention.
Keep the purpose clear: Glutathiosome is your tone pad, Heartleaf is your calming pad, and Green LHA is your exfoliating pore pad. Use the one that matches that routine's main job.
