Stridex Sensitive Pads Review: A Must-Have Purchase
This is truly a holy grail item that I always keep on hand whenever I get periodic breakouts or my skin feels like it's breaking out. I was worried that Stridex Maximum or Essential might be irritating, but perhaps because this Sensitive Pad contains aloe vera, it is definitely gentle to use, so I am already on my ninth bottle!
When I gently wipe the butterfly zone, chin, and around the nose with the embossed side, I can feel the fine dead skin cells and residual impurities that were invisible to the naked eye being completely removed. I really love that even though it contains salicylic acid (BHA), it allows for gentle daily sebum control without any stinging or burning irritation. Since I established a routine of lightly wiping my face with just one of these sheets every evening after cleansing, the intervals between breakouts of small bumps and uneven skin texture have definitely lengthened.
After wiping it off, it leaves a fresh and clean finish without any stickiness, allowing the next step of your skincare to apply perfectly without any pilling. I highly recommend this to those with sensitive skin who can't use harsh exfoliators, as well as to anyone looking to gently manage their pores and sebum. It is a true repurchase item that I always stock up on in advance because I feel anxious when I run out!
