First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads — 90ct Daily AHA Exfoliating Pads, Glycolic & Lactic Acids for Brighter, Smoother Skin

First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads are pre-soaked, dual-sided AHA pads that gently exfoliate, tone, and brighten skin while prepping it for makeup.

These daily facial pads combine glycolic and lactic acids in a sensitive-skin–friendly formula to sweep away surface impurities, refine texture, and help pores appear smaller. Each pad has a smooth side for cleansing and a textured side for gentle buffing, making it an all-in-one step to refresh face, neck, and décolleté. The pads are compostable and formulated without drying alcohols or artificial fragrance, reflecting First Aid Beauty’s focus on effective, skin-conscious solutions.

How do these pads fit into a daily skincare routine?

Use the pad after cleansing and before serums or moisturizers to maximize absorption and create a smooth base for makeup. The AHAs work to remove dead skin cells and help even tone, while the two-sided design removes residue and adds light physical exfoliation. Because the formula is gentle, many users include it daily; adjust frequency if your skin becomes sensitive.

• Apply to clean, dry skin on face, neck, and décolleté.
• Smooth side removes oils and impurities; textured side refines texture.
• Follow with serum and moisturizer or continue to makeup application.

Will these pads irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formula is created with sensitive skin in mind—free from artificial fragrances and drying alcohols—and is dermatologist-tested. Most users find the gentle AHA blend non-irritating, though individual tolerance varies; start with alternate days if you’re new to chemical exfoliants. If you use other actives (like retinoids), space applications to minimize irritation.

• Alcohol-free, fragrance-free, and designed for sensitive skin.
• Use less frequently when combining with other potent actives.
• Monitor skin response and reduce use if redness or discomfort occurs.

What visible improvements can I expect and how soon?

Regular use aims to smooth texture, brighten dullness, and reduce the look of pores over time by encouraging gentle cell turnover. Consumer perception studies indicate high satisfaction for smoother skin and effective impurity removal after continued use, but results depend on individual skin and routine. Consistency over weeks typically gives the most noticeable changes.

• Helps lift dead skin and surface buildup for a brighter look.
• Refines texture with the textured pad side for smoother feel.
• Preps skin to better absorb subsequent skincare products.

How are these pads made and what are they free from?

The pads are pre-soaked in a carefully balanced AHA blend and packaged to support sustainability with compostable material. The formulation avoids common irritants and unnecessary additives to suit a broad range of skin types and lifestyles. They’re vegan and cruelty-free, matching contemporary clean-beauty preferences without sacrificing efficacy.

• Compostable pads and recyclable packaging elements where applicable.
• Formulated without parabens, artificial colorants, fragrances, and drying alcohols.
• Vegan, cruelty-free, non-comedogenic, and dermatologist-tested.

Who is this for: These Facial Radiance Pads are for anyone seeking a simple, one-step exfoliation and makeup-prep product—especially those with sensitive or combination skin who want gentle AHAs, people aiming to smooth uneven texture or reduce the appearance of pores, and users who prefer ready-to-use, compostable formats. If you’re new to chemical exfoliants, begin with reduced frequency and increase as tolerated.
