Anua Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad combines the soothing and clarifying power of 77% Korean-grown Heartleaf extract with gentle physical and chemical exfoliation in a convenient toner pad format. The embossed textured side of the pad physically removes dead skin cells and impurities, promoting smoother, softer skin, while the smooth side delivers hydration and toning benefits. Heartleaf (Houttuynia Cordata) extract is renowned for its strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which help calm redness, reduce irritation, and balance sebum production, making the pads excellent for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin. Clinical studies showed that regular use leads to significant improvements in sebum control, with a 26.43% reduction after 2 weeks and 44.74% after 4 weeks, along with an 87.36% increase in skin hydration after 4 weeks. Notably, pore volume decreased by 27.27% within just 1 week.
The formula’s polyhydroxy acid (PHA) gluconolactone provides mild chemical exfoliation that gently lifts away dead skin without causing irritation, enhancing skin texture and clarity over time. Additional botanical extracts such as Ulmus Davidiana Root, Pueraria Lobata Root, Pinus Palustris Leaf, Evening Primrose Flower, Green Tea Leaf, Job’s Tears Seed, Purslane, and Centella Asiatica offer moisturizing, antioxidant, and skin barrier-supportive benefits. Centella-derived madecassoside and asiatic compounds further enhance skin repair and soothe inflammation. The toner pads also contain ingredients like betaine and butylene glycol to deliver deep hydration and maintain skin moisture balance. Using these pads daily after cleansing helps regulate excess oil, minimize pore size, prevent blackheads and breakouts, and improve overall skin tone and texture. They leave the skin feeling refreshed, soothed, and more balanced without dryness or tightness. The formula is free from artificial fragrance and harsh irritants, making it gentle enough for sensitive skin. Anua Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad offers a multifunctional skincare step combining exfoliation, hydration, and soothing in one. It is designed to help clear pores, reduce redness, control oiliness, and enhance skin smoothness for a healthier, radiant complexion with consistent daily use.
