{"product_id":"dr-althea-rapid-mild-acid-rescue-pore-pad","title":"DR.ALTHEA Rapid Mild Acid Rescue Pore Pad","description":"DR.ALTHEA Rapid Mild Acid Rescue Pore Pad is a toner pad for congested, textured skin. Each pad carries a gentle three-acid blend: salicylic acid, lactic acid and lactobionic acid.\n\nSalicylic acid reaches inside the pore lining to lift everyday build-up. Lactic acid smooths rough patches on the surface. Lactobionic acid, a mild PHA, joins the blend without adding extra irritation. Calendula and witch hazel calm skin while the acids act. The pad remains mild rather than harsh.\n\nSweep one pad over clean, dry skin and continue with your usual routine. No rinsing, no mixing, just wipe and move on. Skin looks smoother and more even with regular use. Each jar holds 65 pads, enough for weeks of steady pore care. It is a simple, mild step toward calmer, clearer skin. ** \u003carticle\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat This Pore Pad Does for Your Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePores get congested for simple reasons. Oil, dead skin and daily grime settle inside them and slowly build up. DR.ALTHEA Rapid Mild Acid Rescue Pore Pad lifts that build-up gently. Each pad arrives pre-soaked in a mild acid formula, so there is no pouring or measuring. You simply wipe and let the pad do the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pad targets clogged pores, rough patches and uneven texture. It suits skin that wants a clearer, smoother finish without a harsh scrub or a stinging toner. Because the acid blend is mild, it suits skin that reacts easily to stronger exfoliants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed regularly, the pad keeps pores clearer between deeper treatments. Skin appears less rough and more even in tone over time. The routine is simple: cleanse, wipe, continue. There is nothing extra to learn or measure, which makes this an easy habit to build into a normal week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePores tend to look more noticeable around the nose, chin and cheeks, especially with daily makeup or sunscreen wear. A quick wipe after cleansing addresses that build-up before it settles in. This makes the pad a natural fit for anyone who wears SPF or make-up most days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Acid Blend Inside Each Pad\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree acids team up inside every pad. Salicylic acid, a BHA, dissolves in oil and travels inside the pore lining, where it loosens the build-up behind blackheads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLactic acid, an AHA, works on the surface and lifts away dead skin cells, so texture becomes noticeably smoother. Lactobionic acid, a mild PHA, rounds out the blend without adding extra irritation, so the whole formula remains mild.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalendula officinalis flower extract and witch hazel leaf extract soothe skin as the acids act. Bisabolol adds a further calming touch that keeps skin comfortable during exfoliation. Sodium hyaluronate holds onto moisture, so skin stays hydrated rather than tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, this blend exfoliates without over-stripping skin or causing soreness. This formula does contain fragrance (parfum), so it may not suit fragrance-sensitive skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pad is built for quick daily care rather than a slow overnight peel. It is a wipe-off pad, not an overnight serum. The acid blend needs only a brief contact time, so the whole step is quick and mild.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Feels on Your Skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad itself is soft and well soaked, so it glides over skin instead of dragging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a light cooling touch from menthol as you wipe, and it fades within moments. The formula is watery rather than sticky, so it absorbs quickly with no heavy residue. Skin feels refreshed straight after use, not tight or dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the acid blend is mild, most people do not experience the sting that stronger exfoliating toners can cause. Texture improvements build with consistent use rather than overnight. Pores may look less noticeable and skin can appear smoother as dead skin and build-up clear away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad sits comfortably under the rest of your routine, so serums and moisturisers absorb normally afterwards. Each jar holds 65 pads, giving you plenty to build a steady habit without running out too soon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Fit It Into Your Routine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pad fits easily into a cleanse-and-go routine. After cleansing, take one pad and sweep it over your face, avoiding the eye area. There is no need to rinse afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people start with a few uses a week and build up as their skin adjusts to the acid blend. Once skin settles, the pad can become a regular step in your evening routine. Follow with a hydrating serum and moisturiser to support your skin barrier while the acids act.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid layering this pad with other strong acids or retinol on the same night. Combining several actives can raise the chance of irritation. If you already have a dedicated exfoliating treatment, alternate nights rather than stacking them together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this pad contains exfoliating acids, daily sun protection matters more than usual. Apply SPF every morning if you use the pad in your evening routine. This protects freshly exfoliated skin through the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad slots easily into a busy schedule. No extra product to buy, no separate exfoliating step. Just cleanse, wipe and continue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Pore Pad Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pad suits skin that deals with clogged pores, blackheads or rough, uneven texture. It also suits anyone who wants a gentle introduction to acid exfoliation without jumping straight to a strong overnight treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther exfoliating toners can feel harsh and cause stinging. This blend is softened with calendula, witch hazel and bisabolol, so it feels more comfortable. It is not aimed at very reactive or broken skin, and anyone new to acids should patch test first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReach for this pad when your pores need a clearer, smoother finish without extra evening steps. Wipe, notice the light cooling touch, and let the rest of your routine follow as normal. It is a calmer route to clearer, cared-for pores, one simple wipe at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e *** Take one pad after cleansing and before the rest of your routine. Sweep it over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. You can flip the pad over to use the second side too.\n\nUse in the evening to start, three to four times a week. Once your skin settles, you can move to daily use if you like. Morning use works as well, but always follow with SPF.\n\nThis pad sits at the toner step. Cleanse first, then use the pad, then follow with your serum and moisturiser as usual. There is no need to rinse it off.\n\nBecause the acids gently exfoliate, daily sun protection matters more while you use this pad. Apply SPF every morning, even on cloudy days.\n\nKeep the jar lid tightly closed after each use and store it away from direct sunlight and heat. This keeps the pads soaked and ready for longer. Each jar holds 65 pads, plenty of pore care to work through.\n\nPair this pad with a hydrating serum. A barrier-supporting moisturiser suits it well too, since the acids can leave skin wanting a little more moisture afterwards. **** Water, Butylene Glycol, Salicylic Acid, 1,2-Hexanediol, Glycereth-25 Pca Isostearate, Sodium Hydroxide, Glycereth-26, PEG\/PPG-17\/6 Copolymer, Propanediol, Hydroxyacetophenone, Lactobionic Acid, Lactic Acid, Menthol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Menthoxypropanediol, Glycerin, Disodium EDTA, Biosaccharide Gum-1, Parfum, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Ammonium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Extract, Bisabolol, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Flower\/Leaf\/Stem Extract ***** Salicylic Acid (2%) - a BHA that reaches inside the pore lining to clear congestion\n\nLactic Acid - an AHA that smooths rough patches on the surface\n\nLactobionic Acid - a mild PHA that supports exfoliation without extra irritation\n\nCalendula Officinalis Flower Extract - a soothing botanical that calms skin as the acids act\n\nHamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Extract - helps skin feel balanced and refreshed ******","brand":"DR.ALTHEA","offers":[{"title":"170g (65ea)","offer_id":56069637833089,"sku":"CH-DAL-TOP-0013","price":16.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/3325\/8815\/files\/DR.ALTHEARapidMildAcidRescuePorePad-1.png?v=1786693406","url":"https:\/\/calmhavenbeauty.co.uk\/products\/dr-althea-rapid-mild-acid-rescue-pore-pad","provider":"Calm Haven Beauty","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
