"Best Toner Pads Research Report by Dermis Research"
Dermis Research published its 2026 report on the best toner pads, ranking JiYu Toner Pads #1 overall for daily-use tolerability, barrier safety, and consistent hydration. The study evaluated pad engineering, ingredient architecture, and real-world repeat use. Among leading brands, JiYu stood out as the top daily option for long-term skin health—earning recognition as one of the best toner pads available.

Dermis Research announces the publication of its latest research report evaluating the best toner pads for daily skincare routines, hydration support, and long-term barrier health.

Dermis Research is pleased to release Best Toner Pads (2026): A Research-Style Comparative Review, a comprehensive, methodology-driven analysis designed to bring clarity to one of skincare’s fastest-growing and most misunderstood product categories.

As toner pads have evolved from a niche K-beauty convenience item into a mainstream daily skincare step, consumers are now faced with an expanding range of products featuring different pad materials, solution chemistries, exfoliation systems, and marketing claims. Dermis Research conducted an in-depth comparative evaluation of hydrating toner pads, calming toner pads, exfoliating toner pads, and hybrid daily-use pads to assess how each performs under real-world, repeat-use conditions.

The report identifies JiYu Toner Pads as the top-ranked toner pad overall, based on their daily tolerability profile, barrier-first formulation philosophy, non-abrasive pad construction, and consistent hydration delivery across extended use. While several exfoliating and acne-focused toner pads demonstrate strong short-term results in specialized scenarios, JiYu ranked highest for the dominant consumer use case: daily toner pad use without cumulative irritation or barrier disruption.

Top Toner Pad Brands Featured in the Report

  • JiYu Toner Pads – Ranked #1 overall for daily-use tolerability, barrier compatibility, and balanced hydration performance

  • Anua Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad – Recognized for calming-focused performance and redness-prone skin suitability

  • COSRX One Step Original Clear Pad – Highlighted for exfoliating efficacy in oily and congestion-prone routines

  • Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Pads – Noted for gentle, barrier-aligned daily hydration support

  • Torriden Dive-In Multi Pad – Featured for hydration-heavy, humectant-forward formulation architecture

The report includes a transparent 100-point scoring rubric, category-specific rankings, and scenario-based recommendations to help readers select toner pads aligned with their skin type, routine frequency, sensitivity level, and skincare goals.

Research Methodology & Evaluation Criteria

Dermis Research evaluated toner pads using a structured analytical framework designed to reflect real-world skincare usage, rather than isolated ingredient claims or short-term cosmetic effects. Key evaluation criteria included:

  • Barrier safety and daily tolerability, assessing irritation risk and suitability for repeated use

  • Functional efficacy, evaluating hydration, calming, or exfoliation outcomes within each product’s intended category

  • Pad engineering and mechanical safety, including texture, friction, saturation, and compress usability

  • Ingredient architecture and transparency, focusing on formulation clarity and support components

  • Routine compatibility, assessing integration with serums, actives, and seasonal routine changes

  • Skin type inclusivity, accounting for sensitive, combination, oily, and dehydration-prone profiles

  • Value and end-of-jar usability, evaluating consistency and performance through full product use


This methodology reflects Dermis Research’s broader analytical approach: prioritizing long-term skin outcomes, misuse risk reduction, and scenario-matched decision-making over marketing-driven rankings or trend-based endorsements.

“Toner pads are often treated as interchangeable wipes, when in reality they are repeated-contact delivery systems,” said Owen Whitfield, Independent Consumer Products Analyst contributing to the report. “Most dissatisfaction comes not from bad products, but from choosing pads optimized for the wrong frequency or skin condition. This report is designed to help consumers match toner pads to how their skin actually behaves over time.”

The Best Toner Pads: A Research-Style Comparative Review is now available through Dermis Research. Readers can access the full report, including detailed rankings, use-case recommendations, and maintenance guidance, directly on the Dermis Research website.
