Pore Reset Pads
Pre-soaked exfoliating toner pads formulated with a balanced blend of AHAs and BHA to refine pores, smooth uneven texture, and boost glow, without stripping the skin.
Skin Concerns
- Dull skin
- Acne and breakouts
- Enlarged pores
- Congested pores
- Uneven texture and rough skin
Why it works
Pore Reset Pads combine three exfoliating acids in a single step. Lactic Acid gently loosens dead skin cells for a brighter, smoother surface. Glycolic Acid penetrates deeper to refine texture and accelerate cell turnover. Salicylic Acid dissolves congestion from the inside out.
Formulated without drying alcohol, Pore Reset Pads contain a Centella Asiatica complex to calm, soothe, and reinforce the skin barrier after exfoliation. The dual-textured pad delivers a two-phase experience: the embossed side exfoliates and clears, the smooth side tones and soothes, leaving skin refreshed, renewed, and radiant.
What it does
- Minimises pores
- Boosts glow
- Clears congestion
- Refines texture
How to use
- Cleanse skin thoroughly
- Exfoliate: sweep textured side over face, neck, and decolletage outwards from the centre, avoiding the eye area
- Tone: flip the pad and glide smooth side over skin
- Pat In: use fingers to pat remaining toner into skin
- Do not rinse
- Follow Up: apply your usual serums and moisturisers
- Finish with SPF if using during the day
- Use 2-3 times weekly (or as tolerated)
- Close lid tightly after use to prevent pads from drying out
FAQs
Are Pore Reset Pads suitable for sensitive skin?
The formula is designed to exfoliate and calm in the same step. Formulated without drying alcohol, and with Centella Asiatica, Allantoin, and Panthenol to soothe and support the skin barrier after exfoliation. If you're new to acids, start with once a week and build from there as your skin adjusts.
Can I use Pore Reset Pads every day?
We recommend 2–3 times weekly for most skin types. If you experience persistent redness or irritation, reduce frequency.
Do I need to rinse after use?
No. These are leave-on toner pads. After sweeping across skin with both sides of the pad, pat excess product in gently with your fingers.
Can I use Pore Reset Pads if I also use a Vitamin C serum or retinol?
Yes, but we recommend not layering all actives in the same routine. Use your Pore Reset Pads on the evenings you exfoliate, and use retinol and Vitamin C alternatively to avoid overloading the skin. If you experience irritation, discontinue use.
Are Pore Reset Pads safe to use during pregnancy?
Pore Reset Pads contain Salicylic Acid (BHA). We recommend consulting your doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Will I see results straight away?
Most users notice smoother, more refined-looking skin after the first use. For more visible improvements in texture, pore appearance, and radiance, consistent use over 3–6 weeks typically delivers the best results.
Do I need to use SPF when using Pore Reset Pads?
Yes. This product contains exfoliating acids that can increase skin's sensitivity to the sun. Daily SPF is essential while using this product and for one week after.
Are Pore Reset Pads cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes, all Pestle & Mortar products are cruelty-free and vegan.
How many uses are in the jar?
Each jar contains 70 pads.
