Ji Woo Gae Cica BHA Blemish Toner Pad — Reddit Reviews
by celimax
Updated November 10, 2026
0.45% salicylic acid pads maintain pores; too weak for stubborn breakouts.
What the community says
A 0.45% salicylic-acid toner pad for occasional pore maintenance and texture smoothing, best used two or three nights weekly. It works on sensitive skin when used sparingly, yet active breakouts may worsen and persistent acne may see little payoff.
What this means for you
What people love
