I had no idea these pads came with a jar otherwise I wouldnt have bought a set of plastic ones from Amazon! 😂 I guess I didn't read the description properly. Either way, this is a lovely product for making your own toner pads. I recently got my nose pierced and can no longer wash my face with active ingredients. The pads allow me to carefully work active ingredients around the piercing in a toner formula instead of a face wash. The pads themselves are high quality and will not turn to mush when soaked. The jar is pretty large and plastic, prevents the pads from drying out.
