This is just as thin as the other brand in the brown yellowish box I got before. I like them both and will probably continue to buy both. I really really like using left over essence from sheet masks to boost my skin hydration on a day where I don't feel like having my whole face wet but I do want to calm down my cheeks. It's great and while the dry texture feels slightly different for my purposes there's not discernible difference so far between facial pads I've tried (also the packaging of this brand is SUPER cute).
