Struggling with stubborn blackheads, clogged pores, and makeup that won’t budge in the heat? These dual-sided pads offer a simple, effective solution to dissolve impurities and gently exfoliate without stripping your skin, making them perfect for Mauritius' humid climate.

• Texture: Pre-soaked cotton pad with a soft embossed side and a smooth side.
• Scent: Described by users as having a pleasant, mild scent.
• Finish: Leaves skin feeling clean, smooth, and hydrated, not tight or greasy.

This is your first cleansing step in the evening to melt away the day's impurities.

1. [THIS PRODUCT] - Manyo Kill Pad: On a dry face, use one pad to gently wipe away makeup and dissolve sebum.
2. Second Cleanser (PM only): Follow with a water-based foam or gel cleanser to wash everything off.
3. Moisturiser (PM): Finish with a moisturiser suitable for your skin type.

Note: Already own a cleansing oil or balm? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

Minimalist Double Cleanse (2 steps):

1. [THIS PRODUCT] - Manyo Kill Pad: The perfect first step to break down waterproof sunscreen, makeup, and oil. Use the embossed side on areas with blackheads, then the smooth side for the rest of the face. Emulsify with a little water, then rinse.
2. Water-Based Cleanser: Follow immediately with a gentle foaming cleanser to thoroughly wash away all residue.

Optional Additions (Post-Cleanse):

• Exfoliating Toner (1-3x/week): If you use other exfoliants, consider alternating nights to avoid irritation.
• Serum & Moisturiser: Follow your cleansing steps with your chosen treatments and a final moisturiser to lock in hydration.

Daily Use — PM Only:

• Amount: One pad per use.
• Apply to: A dry face. Avoid the immediate eye area.
• Method:
  1. Use the embossed side to gently roll over areas with blackheads and clogged pores (like the nose, chin, and forehead) for about 10 seconds.
  2. Use the smooth side to wipe over the entire face to dissolve makeup and sunscreen.
  3. Add a small amount of lukewarm water to the pad or your face to emulsify the oil (it will turn milky).
  4. Rinse your face thoroughly with lukewarm water.
  5. Follow with a water-based cleanser.
• Frequency: Use daily in the evening as the first step of your cleansing routine.

If-This / Then-That:

• Stubborn Blackheads? Focus the embossed side on the target area for a few extra seconds of gentle rolling before rinsing.
• Heavy Makeup? You may need a second pad or a follow-up with a dedicated eye makeup remover for waterproof mascara.
• Sensitive Skin? Use very gentle pressure and avoid vigorous rubbing. Start by using it every other day to assess tolerance.

• Immediate: Skin feels thoroughly cleansed, soft, and smooth. Makeup, sunscreen, and surface oil are completely removed.
• 2–4 weeks: With consistent use, you may notice a reduction in the appearance of blackheads and clogged pores. Skin texture feels smoother and more refined.
• 4–8+ weeks: Pores appear clearer, and the frequency of new blackhead formation may decrease. Skin maintains a more balanced and less congested state.

Why use an emulsifying oil pad, not a harsh scrub?

Many believe scrubbing hard is the only way to clear blackheads, but this often causes micro-tears, irritation, and can even trigger more oil production, worsening the problem. These pads use a blend of oils and gentle acids (AHA, BHA, PHA, LHA) to dissolve sebum plugs inside the pore and gently lift dead skin. This is a far safer and more effective approach than abrasive scrubs, especially for preventing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) in Mauritius' sunny climate.

• Works With: As a first-step cleanser, this product is compatible with virtually any routine that follows. It effectively preps the skin for your second cleanser, toners, serums, and moisturisers.
• Use Carefully With: If you are using other potent exfoliating products (high-concentration acids, retinoids), ensure you are not over-exfoliating. Since this pad provides gentle daily exfoliation, you might need to reduce the frequency of your other, stronger exfoliants.
• Avoid On: Do not use on broken, wounded, or actively irritated skin. Avoid the immediate eye area.

• Oily / Combination Skin: Excellent. Effectively dissolves excess sebum and helps keep the T-zone clear and balanced.
• Acne-Prone Skin: Highly suitable. The blend of exfoliating acids helps to keep pores clear and prevent the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads).
• Normal Skin: Good. A great option for a deep cleanse after wearing makeup or heavy sunscreen.
• Dry Skin: Use with caution. While it contains nourishing oils, the exfoliating acids might be too much for very dry skin if used daily. A traditional cleansing oil or balm might be a gentler choice.
• Sensitive Skin: Patch test required. The physical exfoliation from the embossed pad and the chemical acids could be irritating for highly sensitive or reactive skin.

• Blackheads & Whiteheads (Comedones)
• Clogged & Congested Pores
• Excess Sebum & Oiliness
• Makeup & Sunscreen Removal
• Dull or Rough Skin Texture

Key Actives Explained:

• AHA (Citric Acid): A gentle Alpha-Hydroxy Acid that exfoliates the skin's surface, helping to improve texture and fade minor discoloration.
• BHA (Salicylic Acid): An oil-soluble acid that penetrates deep into pores to dissolve sebum and dead skin cells, making it highly effective against blackheads and clogged pores.
• PHA (Gluconolactone): A larger molecule, gentle exfoliant that works on the surface of the skin with an added benefit of hydration, suitable for sensitive skin.
• LHA (Capryloyl Salicylic Acid): A derivative of Salicylic Acid that provides very gentle, slow exfoliation at the skin's surface, helping to refine texture and clear impurities with minimal irritation.
• Jojoba Seed Oil: A plant oil structurally similar to human sebum, it helps to moisturise and dissolve impurities without feeling heavy.
• Centella Asiatica Extract & Tea Tree Leaf Water: A powerful duo for calming and soothing the skin, reducing redness and inflammation often associated with clogged pores and exfoliation.

• Fragrance Status: Formulated without artificial fragrances. Users describe a mild, pleasant natural scent from its botanical ingredients.
• Essential Oils: Does not appear to contain added essential oils.
• EU Allergens: None of the 26 declarable EU allergens are listed in the INCI.

• Who should use with caution? Individuals with very dry, sensitive, or reactive skin, or those with a known allergy to Salicylic Acid (aspirin), should proceed with caution due to the combination of physical and chemical exfoliation.
• Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, take a pad and wipe a small amount of the oil on your jawline, near the ear. Do not rinse immediately. Wait 24-48 hours. If no irritation, redness, or burning occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use as directed.
• Safety Warnings: For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water as it may sting. Do not use on broken or irritated skin. Discontinue use and consult a specialist if signs of irritation or rash appear. Keep out of reach of children. Store away from direct sunlight.

• Texture/Finish: A dual-sided, soft cotton pad soaked in a lightweight cleansing oil. The embossed side provides gentle physical exfoliation, while the smooth side is for general cleansing. It rinses off cleanly after emulsifying, leaving no greasy residue.
• Scent: Mild and pleasant natural fragrance.
• pH: The product is stated to be pH-balanced at approximately pH 5.5.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Contains several ingredients that are not considered "FA-safe," including Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil and Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate. As a rinse-off product, the risk is lower, but those with severe fungal acne should patch test carefully. Individual responses may vary.

This product is an excellent choice for the Mauritian climate. The hot and humid weather increases sebum production and can make skin feel congested. These pads offer a convenient and effective way to:

• Thoroughly remove stubborn, water-resistant sunscreen and makeup needed for our sunny environment.
• Deep clean pores and manage the excess oil and sweat common in high humidity.
• Provide a quick, refreshing cleanse to prevent breakouts without the need for multiple heavy products.

Aggregated sentiment from verified purchasers on platforms like Olive Young Global and Hwahae.

• The Positive: Many users call this a "game-changer" for blackheads, noting visible reduction and smoother skin texture, especially on the nose. Its convenience as an all-in-one makeup remover and blackhead treatment is frequently praised. One user mentioned, "Since discovering this product, I've said goodbye to nose strips, cleansing balms, and oils." (Hwahae review, 2025).
• The Neutral: Several users agree it's effective for makeup removal but feel that its effect on blackheads requires consistent, long-term use rather than being an immediate "kill." A common sentiment is that it minimizes pores and leaves skin silky, but may not completely eliminate stubborn blackheads in one go.
• The Caveat: Some users with very sensitive skin find the embossed side of the pad can feel slightly rough, advising gentle wiping to minimize friction. Others noted that one pad might not be sufficient to remove very heavy makeup, suggesting it's best as a first-step cleanser followed by a foam wash.

• BHA (Beta-Hydroxy Acid): An oil-soluble acid, like Salicylic Acid, that can penetrate pores to clear out sebum and dead skin cells. Excellent for blackheads.
• Emulsify: The process of mixing oil and water. In cleansing, adding water to a cleansing oil turns it milky, allowing it to be rinsed away cleanly without leaving a greasy residue.
• MFDS (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety): The South Korean government agency that regulates food, drugs, and cosmetics to ensure their safety and efficacy. Formerly known as the KFDA.
