After gaining renowned followers in Kylie Jenner and, more lately, TikTok beauty sensation Mikayla Nogueira, the famed Nip + Fab exfoliating pads may just be our winter skin fighter.
Yes, the harsh scrubs we used to use on our acne-prone faces are long gone, but if you’re still seeking for a solid exfoliation to bring out brighter, cleaner skin during the silly season, pads may be something you’re missing from your skincare routine.
First and foremost, Nip + Fab glycolic cleansing pads are biodegradable, so we can exhale.
They were formerly used by Kylie Jenner, but have since been seen in the kit of Mikayla Nogueira, one of the biggest stars in beauty TikTok.
She is well-known on the platform, with roughly 14 million followers.
With a few strokes across her face, the social media sensation reflects on the pore-clearing pads, which combine 5% glycolic acid with blackhead-fighting salicylic acid and niacinamide (if you’re up on your ingredients) to get some pretty bright skin.
Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that is used for chemical exfoliation of the skin – but don’t be put off by the word ‘acid’. There is no melting; it merely eliminates dead skin cells and permits new ones to form.

It’s a’refreshing step’ in their daily routine, according to Mikayla, with the star using the brand’s hyaluronic acid serum to truly give the skin a fantastic morning push, whether you’re establishing a base for your make-up or looking for a great skincare infusion.
A tried and true classic, with five-star reviews throughout the internet, if the purpose of the game is to retexture and resurface your skin the reviews come in hot as some consumers claim they detect a difference in the texture of their skin ‘after just three usage’.
One reviewer wrote: ‘Very nice for the busier days- gym etc after showering,’ saying it helped reduce fine wrinkles. I also use the glycolic serum three times a week. My ’11s’ have definitely faded!’
Another said it ‘helped to no end my skin,’ while another said she’d been using it for over a year and noticed a huge difference in her skin!
People, the radiance is real!
