A'demang A'demang marine kelf aqua moisture pad

What is this product?

A 60 pad, 280 ml toner pad jar from a Korean brand that sells it on its own brand-named storefront, pitched as a first-step hydrating and makeup-prep pad with a horsetail kelp story. In the collected material the full ingredient list appears as a statutory table image; it was transcribed with zero unreadable characters, but one entry prints a space inside its name that does not resolve to a dictionary key, and the second collected copy is byte-identical, so the structured ingredient fields are left empty rather than normalised. Read from that image: a water, glycol and glycerin base with denatured alcohol fourth, a hyaluronate salt, three essential oils and a declared limonene, no acid-suffixed entry, and four extracts with printed levels, the named kelp lowest at 0.07ppm. The brand prints a one-use texture and radiance test without a baseline, a low-irritation panel naming a shorter product name, and a vegan claim with no certifier. The functional-cosmetic field on the notice reads not applicable.

What makes it different?

The named hero ingredient is disclosed at 0.07ppm, the lowest of four printed levels on the list, so the kelp in the name is a trace entry while glycerin and a hyaluronate salt sit near the top. The pad has two faces, embossed and flat, 8 cm across, and the brand prints a basis weight for the sheet. Two brand test panels are identified by institution, date and panel size, one for one-use texture and radiance and one for low irritation, but neither prints a baseline and the second names a shorter product name. No landed record from the same brand was available to compare against.
