Name: celimax Makeup Retouching Booster Pad
Brand: celimax

What is this product?

Celimax's Makeup Retouching Booster Pad is not an evening cleanse, it is a midday reset: the embossed side lifts settled makeup and sebum, the smooth side presses the remaining fluid back onto cleared skin, and makeup goes straight back on with no rinse. Each pad is sealed on its own with 2.2ml of a 23-item water and glycol fluid that leaves behind sodium hyaluronate, niacinamide, panthenol derivatives, allantoin and centella, with tea tree leaf oil and limonene as the two terpene entries to watch if you react to those.

What makes it different?

It is built for reapplication rather than removal. The second face of the pad leaves a humectant film that makeup goes straight back onto, the opposite of the strip-and-rinse logic most wipes follow. The dosing unit is a sealed 2.2ml single-use wrapper rather than a shared tub, sold in 30-pad and 5-pad counts, which removes the repeated-dip contamination path at the cost of packaging on every use.
