Carrotene IPMP Instant Calming Serum PadsApril Skin Carrotene IPMP Instant Calming Serum Pads, 220 ml (7.4 fl oz)

Soaked pads with carrot and centella

Each pad comes soaked in a serum built around glycerin and niacinamide, with carrot root water, carrot seed oil, centella asiatica extract, panthenol and sodium hyaluronate further down the list. April Skin pairs these carrot-derived ingredients with IPMP in its Carrotene line.

A quick mask step

Rather than wiping across the face, the pads are laid on the cheeks, forehead or any specific area you want to focus on and left for a few minutes. That makes them a short, separate step that is easy to add to your routine without extra tools.

What calming means here

The effect is a cooling, hydrating feel on the skin while the pad is in place. The pads are thin and soft, so they may arrive slightly wrinkled; the brand says this does not affect the product.

How to use

Place a pad on the cheeks, forehead or another area you want to focus on, then remove it after 3-5 minutes.

Before you choose

These are leave-on serum pads for the face, not exfoliating toner pads. For external use only. Stop using them if irritation occurs, read the instructions and warnings before use, and keep out of reach of children. The formula includes eucalyptus leaf oil, so patch test first if your skin reacts to essential oils. Korean-market product: packaging may show Korean text.
