Frequently Asked Questions
Use them 2–3 times per week after cleansing — not daily. Polish Pads are a targeted reset step, not a daily product. Using them more often can overdo the exfoliation and stress your barrier. If you have very sensitive skin, start with once a week and build up.
Yes — they're designed to work together. Polish Pads are your 2–3× per week reset step; Toner Pads are your daily glow step. On Polish nights, use the Polish Pad first (right after cleansing), then follow with a Toner Pad. On the other 4–5 days, just use the Toner Pad.
Yes. The formula is built around our patented GESOLZA™ calming complex (Sweet Wormwood + Citron + Pine Tree Leaf) and barrier-supportive ingredients like Glycerin and Niacinamide — specifically chosen to help reduce irritation while the acids do their work. That said, we recommend a patch test on your inner arm before first use, and starting at 1× per week if you have a history of reactive skin.
Avoid layering the Polish Pads with retinol, retinal, prescription tretinoin, or other strong acids on the same night. Alternate them on opposite nights. On Polish nights, follow with the JiYu Toner Pads and NAD+ Cream, then resume your retinoid on non-Polish nights.
Anywhere you deal with breakouts, congestion, or rough texture: chest, back, shoulders, upper arms, and even the bumpy keratosis-prone areas on the backs of the arms. Avoid broken or inflamed skin, eczema, and the eye area.
The Polish Pads are formulated to help with surface breakouts, clogged pores, congestion, and post-acne red marks. They are not a treatment for cystic or hormonal acne, which needs to be addressed with a dermatologist. If you struggle with cystic breakouts, we recommend talking to a derm about a prescription plan and using the Polish Pads alongside it (with your derm's OK) for the surface-level clearing.
One side is textured for gentle physical polishing — it lifts buildup and surface debris your cleanser leaves behind. The other side is soft cotton for smoothing and refining after. You get both physical and chemical exfoliation in one step, which means fewer products and less risk of overdoing it.
Different jobs.

They're designed to work as a pair, not as substitutes.
