ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads – Blackhead Refining 60-Count Jar with Lactic Acid & Tri-Enzyme

ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads are pre-soaked exfoliating pads that combine a textured wipe, lactic acid, and a tri-enzyme blend to smooth skin, reduce dullness, and help refine the look of pores with daily use.

These single-use pads are designed to both physically lift away dead skin and chemically encourage surface renewal, delivering a renewed, more even-looking complexion without aggressive abrasion. Each jar contains 60 pads formulated for regular use as part of a morning or evening routine, and their dual-action design aims to make radiant skin a simple step rather than a multi-step treatment.

How do these pads refine blackheads and blocked pores?

The pads combine a textured surface to sweep away surface debris with lactic acid and a tri-enzyme system that gently supports skin’s natural exfoliation. This two-pronged approach helps prevent buildup that can contribute to visible blackheads and enlarged pores.

• Textured pad physically removes dry skin and trapped oils.
• Lactic acid encourages gentle chemical exfoliation and cell turnover.
• Tri-Enzyme Technology works enzymatically to polish the skin’s surface.
• Daily use helps reduce visible pore congestion over time.

Will these pads make my skin feel tight or irritated?

They are formulated to provide a noticeable polish without stripping the skin; many users report softer skin after one swipe. Because the pads include gentle AHA and enzyme action rather than strong acids alone, they’re suited to everyday resurfacing when used as directed.

• Balanced AHA level for gentle, repeated use.
• Smooth-feel finish rather than harsh stinging or dryness for most users.
• Suitable prep step before makeup or self-tanner to improve application.
• Patch test if you have very reactive or compromised skin barrier.

How soon will I see brighter, smoother skin?

Visible improvements in smoothness and tone are commonly reported within a few weeks of consistent use, as the pads accelerate surface cell turnover and help clear dulling buildup. Results vary by individual, but clinical observations have shown measurable changes over a four‑week period with regular application.

• Regular use supports reduction in the look of uneven tone and dark spots.
• Helps smooth texture for a softer skin surface.
• Many users notice makeup applies more evenly after prepping with the pads.
• Consistency over weeks yields the most noticeable results.

How should I incorporate these into my skincare routine?

Use one pad to sweep across cleansed, dry or damp skin—avoiding the eye area—then follow with serums and moisturizer. They work well as a quick step before sunscreen and makeup in the morning or as part of an evening regimen to boost nightly renewal.

• Use daily or as tolerated after cleansing; avoid combining with other strong exfoliants simultaneously.
• Follow with hydrating serum and barrier-supporting moisturizer.
• Always apply SPF in the morning after using exfoliating acids.
• Keep jar sealed to maintain pad potency and prevent drying out.

Who is this for: These pads are suited to anyone seeking a convenient, everyday resurfacing step to refine texture, reduce the appearance of dullness and pores, and improve makeup application. They are ideal for skin types wanting gentle chemical and physical exfoliation in a single product—particularly those who prefer a time-saving pad over multiple serums or treatments. If you have highly sensitive or compromised skin, consult a dermatologist and perform a patch test before introducing the pads into your routine.
