How it works
The Sea Kelp Gel Toner Pad is a 60pads toner pad, used use one pad from it straight after cleansing, morning and evening. The plant extract it is built around is Laminaria Japonica Extract, named twenty-sixth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Allantoin, Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Laminaria Japonica Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the toner pad format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the toner pad Biodance sells in Korea, Laminaria Japonica Extract and all.

Key actives
Laminaria Japonica Extractplant extract
Laminaria Japonica is kombu kelp. Its extract carries alginates, minerals and iodine, and it is used as a hydrating, mineral-rich ingredient. The name on the box points at it, and it is named twenty-sixth on this toner pad's own ingredient list.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. It is named ninth on this toner pad's list, alongside Laminaria Japonica Extract.
Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamideactive
A synthetic cooling agent that gives the cool feeling of menthol without the mint smell. It is used where a formula wants the sensation but not the scent. It is named sixteenth on this toner pad's list, alongside Laminaria Japonica Extract.
Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extractplant extract
Melia Azadirachta is neem. Its leaf and flower extracts are long-standing Ayurvedic ingredients, and Korean formulas use them in products aimed at the look of congested, blemish-prone skin. The panel names it fifteenth on this toner pad's list, beside Laminaria Japonica Extract.
Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extractplant extract
Ocimum Sanctum is holy basil, or tulsi. Its leaf extract carries plant antioxidants and is used in formulas built for the look of stressed, reactive skin. It is named eighteenth on this toner pad's list, alongside Laminaria Japonica Extract.

Where does this toner pad go in my routine?
Use one pad from it straight after cleansing, morning and evening. Anything thinner than a toner pad goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Laminaria Japonica Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market toner pad or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Laminaria Japonica Extract and all. We match this toner pad to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Laminaria Japonica Extract?
Allantoin, Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract. The order they are printed in on this toner pad's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Laminaria Japonica Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Spirulina Maxima Extract and Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract.

How to use
- Use a Sea Kelp Gel Toner Pad after cleansing, morning and evening, in the prep slot your toner would take.
- One pad, textured side down, swept over the face and neck. Save the last pass for the areas that feel driest.
- For a local layer, lay the pad flat on the cheeks or forehead for about ten minutes, then press in what is left.
- Once or twice a day. Do not close the tub loosely or store it in a hot bathroom, because the pads on top dry out first.
Worth knowing
- Pregnant or breastfeeding shoppers should run any new skincare step past their own physician before adding it.
- Skin that is actively broken out or irritated does best starting this once daily before moving to twice.

Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.
Wilma Bergfeld, MDDermatologist, Cleveland Clinic Pretty much every step of a Korean skin care routine is going to have some component of hydration.
