Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testKorea's #1 daily toner pads for complete pore care. One pad helps cleanse and refine pores in a single step. The embossed side removes impurities, dead skin, and excess oil, while the smooth side works as a targeted pore-tightening pack. Helps reduce blackheads, whiteheads, and pore impurities using PHA + LHA for gentle exfoliation.
No.3 Bifida Bakuchiol Exfoliating Toner Pads is a watery-light toner pads from Numbuzin, a brand based in Korean. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 31 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as very light — essentially a water-and-humectant base with little emollient weight. With almost no emollient load it should absorb quickly and finish close to matte. Hydration is handled by Methylpropanediol, Butylene Glycol and Glycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Methylpropanediol, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Betaine.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Allantoin, Bifida Ferment Lysate and Sodium Hyaluronate.
Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Kojic Acid, Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, Gluconolactone and Pueraria Lobata Root Extract.
On richness alone it suits Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is essential-oil-free, paraben-free, silicone-free, microplastic-free, sulfate-free and dye-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance and drying alcohol, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after cleansing, before serums. Apply to slightly damp skin so the humectants have water to hold on to.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
