## How it works

Panthenol leads the ingredient panel on this toner pad. Panthenol is pro-vitamin B5: skin converts it to pantothenic acid. It is a humectant that holds water and leaves skin feeling soft and less tight, and it is one of the ingredients formulators reach for when a formula also contains something harsh. On this panel it sits alongside Niacinamide, Succinic Acid and Allantoin. Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.

## How to use

1. Use one pad in the evening after cleansing, over the areas that actually get congested rather than the whole face.
2. One pass with the textured side, then press the smooth side over the same area to leave the rest of the essence behind.
3. Wait a minute, then carry on with a light moisturizer. In the morning, sunscreen goes on last.
4. Two nights a week at first, and no more than every other night after that. Do not use one on freshly shaved or broken skin.

## FAQ

### What does the Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads actually contain?

Its ingredient list is led by Niacinamide, with the rest of the formula built to support that active rather than compete with it. We list the ingredients in the order the manufacturer prints them, so the ones near the top of the panel are doing the most work in the formula.

### How do I use the Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads?

Use this toner pad as the toning step right after cleansing. To apply, sweep one pad over the face and neck after cleansing, working outward from the center. Keep it to AM/PM unless the packaging states otherwise, and give the rest of the routine a moment to settle before layering the next step. Give it a full bottle or box before judging the result, since most Korean routines are built for steady use rather than a single application.

### Is the Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?

This Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads is the Korean-market formula, not a version reformulated for US shelves. It arrives with its original Korean-market barcode and batch code intact so the formula can be checked against the box on arrival.

### Can I use the Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads with other actives in my routine?

Yes, as long as it is used in its own step, the toning step right after cleansing, and not layered on top of a product doing the same job. Introduce any new step gradually over the first week or two and keep an eye on how the skin responds before adding a second new active alongside it.

### Who is the Red Succinic Acid Panthenol Pads suited for?

It suits most skin types looking for toning step right after cleansing rather than a single acute problem. It comes in a 70pads format. Anyone with a known sensitivity to a specific ingredient should check the full ingredient panel on this page before buying.
