MEDIHEAL Madecassoside Pads: Korea 100-pad tub vs 200-pad refill set
Five practical checks for Korea's 100-pad/170mL tub, the two 100-pad refills, and gentler toner-pad use.
As checked on October 29, 2026, MEDIHEAL Korea lists a Madecassoside Blemish Toner Pad tub containing 100 pads/170mL, and a separate refill promotion consisting of two 100-pad refills (200 pads total). The 200 pads are not one oversized tub. The official US site lists Madecassoside Pad in 100 Pads, but regional naming and directions do not prove formula or package equivalence. Claims about soothing and blemish appearance are cosmetic marketing, not acne or scar-treatment guarantees. The cover is an original creator video from 2025, not a formula or efficacy study of the current Korean listing.

01
1. Identify the exact package
The Korean full-size tub is 100 pads/170mL. The separately listed 200-pad set contains two 100-pad refills. Check whether you need an existing reusable container and confirm the actual shipped items. A US '100 Pads' listing is not proof of identical Korean packaging or formula.

2. Read the ingredient label, not the headline alone
The Korean official disclosure lists Centella asiatica extract 1,001ppm, madecassoside 10.25ppm and niacinamide. An ingredient purity marketing claim such as '98%' does not mean the whole pad serum is 98% madecassoside. Results vary; this is not an acne medicine.

3. Use gently after cleansing
The Korean instructions describe placing a pad on the desired area, then wiping gently along the skin texture. The US official product page separately describes a 15-minute targeted mask method and a gentle swipe method. Treat the 15-minute instruction as US-page guidance and prioritize the directions on your purchased Korean pack.

4. Avoid eyes, broken skin and scrubbing
The Korean label advises avoiding the eye area and injured skin and exercising care if adhesive or wet compresses irritate you. Stop if the skin stings or reddens rather than rubbing more. Do not share or reuse used pads.

5. Close the tub and watch the expiry
The Korean official label states three years from manufacture and six months after opening. Close promptly to prevent drying, avoid direct sun and keep away from children. If sensitive to new products, test a small area first and seek medical advice for persistent symptoms.

✦ Helpful tips
- The Korean 200-pad set is two 100-pad refills, not a single 200-pad tub.
- The US 15-minute mask direction is US-specific; follow your local packaging.
- The 2025 creator video provides historical product context, not an independent test of the current Korean item.
ⓘ Keep in mind
- Avoid eyes and injured areas; stop for suspected irritation, swelling or itching and seek professional advice if significant.
- Cosmetic pads are not medical treatment for acne or scarring.
- Do not reuse pads; follow the actual package's after-opening period.
