How it works
A toner pad is a toner and its applicator in one, which changes how the step is used more than what the step is. The pad holds enough liquid to sweep a face and can then be pressed flat against an area that wants a longer soak. It is the first leave on step after cleansing, and what is left on the skin stays there rather than being wiped away. The trade against a bottle is precision: a pad gives you an even sweep and a bottle gives you more liquid for the money. Eighty pads is close to three months at one a day, which makes this one of the better value pad jars on a per use basis.
Key benefits
- What it is: toner pad, 80 pad jar, used the first leave on step after cleansing.
- Texture: a soaked pad that sweeps a face in one motion.
- Aimed at: dullness, everyday preparation after cleansing, a fresher looking finish.
- Original Korean Formula: the version sold on Korean shelves, not a US reformulation.
Key actives
Niacinamide
Niacinamide is one of the most widely used tone and texture ingredients in Korean formulas, and its presence on this row's own ingredient list means it is genuinely part of the build rather than a name-only claim on the box.
Gluconolactone
Gluconolactone is a PHA exfoliant, the gentlest acid family, and a common choice in Korean formulas built around sensitive skin that still wants exfoliation.
Allantoin
Allantoin is a gentle soothing agent frequently paired with stronger actives in Korean formulas, included here to keep the routine step comfortable rather than to do the heavy lifting itself.
Adenosine
Adenosine is a wrinkle-care ingredient recognized in Korean cosmetic regulation. It sits on this formula's own ingredient list, which is what separates a confirmed component from a name printed on the front of the box.
Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic Acid, pure vitamin C, is one of the most researched brightening and antioxidant ingredients in skincare, and this formula carries it in its active acid form rather than a milder derivative.
What is the KLAIRS Vita 10 Vitamin Skin Prep Pads 290ml/80ea?
It is a 290ml jar of 80 soaked pads used as the first leave on step after cleansing, in place of pouring a toner. One pad sweeps a face and can be laid flat where an area wants more contact. The residue is patted in rather than wiped off.
How many pads should I use at once?
One is the intended dose for a face, and using two or three is how a jar empties in a fortnight without any gain. If an area wants more contact, lay the same pad flat on it for a few minutes rather than reaching for another. The pads are a measured dose, which is part of the point.
Where does the toner pad go in the routine?
First of the leave on steps, straight after cleansing and before essence, serum and cream. The residue is patted in rather than wiped off. If you also use an exfoliating step, that goes before this.
Can I use them as a quick mask?
Yes, laying a pad flat on the chin, cheeks or forehead for a few minutes is a sensible way to use one. It is not the same as a sheet mask, since a pad is smaller and dries out faster, so take it off while it is still damp. Pressing the residue in afterwards matters more than the length of the soak.

How to use
- Cleanse first, then take one pad and sweep it over the face while the skin is still damp.
- Press the pad flat on any area that wants a longer soak and leave it for a few minutes.
- Pat the residue in with clean palms rather than rinsing, then follow with your serum and cream.
- Do not scrub with the textured side, since a pad is a delivery method rather than a scrubbing tool.
Worth knowing
- Use the smooth side on the face and do not scrub with the textured side.
- Follow with a moisturising layer, since a toner step alone will not hold water.
- Close the lid firmly, as the top pads dry out first once air gets in.

What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.
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 Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.

This means that gluconolactone acts as an exfoliating acid, but also as a moisturizer. It has moisturizing, soothing, and lightening properties, working well on dry skin.
