No more dark spots

I've tried a lot of toning and brightening pads over the years, but the Anua Niacinamide 5% + TXA Brightening Pad really stood out to me from the first week I used it. I didn't expect it to become such a staple in my routine, but now it's one of those products I panic about running out of. Each pad ...

I started using the ANUA Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad and omg it's actually amazing. The pads are super soft and soaked with toner, but not dripping everywhere. I just wipe one across my face after cleansing and it makes my skin feel sooo fresh and clean. I've been using it almost every night, and I swear my skin looks way more even now. I had some dark spots and dull areas, and they're starting to fade. The niacinamide and TXA are supposed to help with brightening, and I really think it's working. My skin just looks more glowy and alive. What I love is it doesn't sting or make my skin feel tight. It's super gentle and hydrating, which is perfect for my dry skin. No breakouts, no irritation just smooth and happy skin. And it's fast too, which I love because I get lazy with skincare sometimes lol. It also helps with texture my forehead used to feel a little bumpy, but now it's way smoother.

So much brightening

I was actually surprised how fast I noticed a difference with these. My skin looked way brighte not in a shiny, greasy way, but just healthier. Even under my eyes looked more awake after a few uses, which I wasn't expecting. The pads are super easy to use (I'll pop them on while I make coffee), and they don't sting or feel harsh at all. I also love that they're not dripping wet just the right amount of product. Honestly feels like a mini facial in 10 minutes.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Brighter Glass like skin!

This has got to be the best product I have used in 2025. I loved using the Anua Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pad. The packaging is so cute and perfect! The pads are good sized and the quantity is great value for money! I used the pads both day and night after cleansing my face. I love how the pads soothed my skin and hydrated it. After using the pads consistently, my skin is much clearer and brighter. It almost has a glass like finish. I am definitely grateful for clearer skin! I usually get really oily in my T zone in summer and the pads have definitely helped with that! They feel great on my skin and are not harsh at all. I love the results I have seen in my skin after using the Niacinamide 5 TXA Brightening Pads! I'm a big big fan!!!!!!

Brightening Pads

In this jar, there are thin small cloth(?) pads that are half moon shape and about twice the size of an eye pad, as well as a plastic tweezer to help pick them up with. The pads can be used to swipe the serum on the skin , wear two under the eyes (on either side) , or just spot wear on a problem area. As I've been noticing texture and larger pores on my cheeks in the front , I opted to try to wear them there - like large eye pads. These can be worn like a face mask for 10-20 minutes. I use niacinamide serum on the regular and tolerate it well , so I attempted to replace the serum with this. It's advertised to be used every day , both am and pm. However, I only wore in the morning. The first day i used for 20 minutes, but the next day my skin irritated and flushed with a slight burn. I waited another day to recover, then tried again, but for only 10 minutes - unfortunately with the same result. I've done this a cycle a few times and my skin looks nice, glowy, and the texture is better. However the irritation may not be worth it. I am not through the whole jar yet, there are 60 pads total; I'll keep trying , but will only use 1-2x a week. **This product was provided for promotional purposes in exchange for my honest review**

Love these pads

51 year old beauty enthusiast excited to try the Anua Niamicide Eye Pads. I use these are few times a week in the morning after my shower Must speak on the jar though. Comes with forceps to grab each pad. Brilliant! Pads are very easy to apply, not slimy like the silicone ones. They stay in place very well. Little chilly right out if the jar but perfect to decrease morning eye inflammation. They peel off very easy. I did not experience any bad side effects with use. The skin beneath my eyes felt and looked great with each use! I would definitely consider purchasing and using again.
