I gave this a total 4 because while they are not really dry, I feel like these could be moister. They exfoliate well. Rub gently! They take makeup off pretty easily but if they were more moist they would be much better on mascara. i love cleansing wipes I don't have to rinse after using because I HATE bending over the sink to wash my face and I shower in the morning. These do not leave a residue on my skin. I can use my moisturizer directly after. Another thing that i love about these is there is no perfume.

I took 1 point off the price because for $6 and really looking at what they are, you should get more IMO. The up & up brand wipes from Target work great as well and you get the same amount for $3.99. I also took 2 points off of the packaging. I hate the packages that use that sticky tab to reclose. They don't stay sticky and they don't close well. I use a ziplock bag to keep them from drying out. I love packages that have the little plastic clicky top. Like baby wipes.

I will repurchase. continued >>

I grabbed these when I couldn't find my usual Simple Facial Wipes, assuming they would be fairly similar. Wrong! These feel like sandpaper and caused my skin great irritation. Since they are not going anywhere near my face again, I've repurposed them. With a few sprays of household cleaner, the wipes are great for bathtubs, sinks, and counters. Strange, but true!

I was expecting the makeup removing towelettes .Since it says Exfoliating Facial Wipes you would think it would clean your face it doesn't there i very little moisture on the towel making it hard to move it around gently.I also don\y find them exfoliating at all the cloth it self is very rough but not in a good way it's a mesh cloth. It feels scratchy and makes your skin be irritated and sore from what feel like scratches on my face.

I would stay away from this product unless you have very thick skin so what little exfoliating you get out of this product doesn't damage your skin

It doesn't do either of it's two claims .well so not worth the 10$ spent.

Meh.

My feelings on these are fairly neutral. However, that being said I would never repurchase them again, nor recommend them to a friend. Here is a detailed list of why.

1.) The texture is akin to sandpaper. I am pretty sure my rabbit raking her claws down my face would be comparable.

2.) I would never use these as a "cleansing" wipe, they are not meant for that and they don't do a very good job.

3.) Wtf is that smell? It's almost as bad as my Witch Hazel, but at least the Witch Hazel actually serves a purpose.

4.) Aren't these supposed to be scent free? -checking package-

5.) Hmm, should I toss them?

6.) Nah, that would be a waste, I'll just never use them! YES! I am so smart!

7.) Hey its those wipes I bought, I think I'll use one..

8.) Yep, they still suck and my face feels like I walked across the beach on it..

Sorry I got a little off track there, but I think you get my point. I don't see how these could work on sensitive skin, however if you like a rough sort of facial these things are definately for you! (I find both sides equally rough, though there is supposed to be a difference.) So your probably wondering where the neutral part of my feelings on these come in. Well here you go, they never really made me break out, or gave me any problems in general. Most of what I don't like about them boils down to personal preference.

Wow! These wipes are totally amazing. I used to have super bumpy skin along the edge of my chin and after using these wipes my skin is SUPER SMOOTH! Love it

I tried these and hated them!!! I ended up throwing the package away. They smelled horrible, burned my skin and made me break out. Nothing "natural" about these wipes!!!

I usually use Ponds Morning refresh with citrus and cucumber.
I bought this product and was not impressed for three reasons;
1)They are really dry
2)They almost smell like wine! (they are supposed to be sent free)
3) And they feel like sand paper

I complained to the company. Never buying this again!
The Cleansing wipes are MUCH better.

I bought these because I love trying new makeup removing wipes. I have used the Biore ones for a very long time, but wanted to try these based on all the hype revolving around this brand. When I first opened the package I immediately hated the smell. For being fragrance free they have an awful scent and I usually don't notice scents. The next thing I noticed while using them was that they hurt my face. I love products that exfoliate but these wipes hurt so bad that I couldn't use them around my eyes (which is where I need to remove the most makeup) and my face felt rubbed raw after using them. I used up the package, but only because they were the only ones I had and I was determined to finish them. I will never repurchase them and I am surprised by how many great reviews they have gotten.

I love these wipes!!
I actually decided to try them on the strength of their MUA reviews and I don't regret my choice!
Background:
I have oily, clog-prone skin with previously really bad breakouts that have slowly been getting better over 4 months. I'm on a lemon juice and retin-a/benzoyl peroxide regime and mostly my skin has tons of residual scarring but not any new breakouts. I usually use no-name wet wipes (I knoooowww) to take my makeup off.

Pros:
-these exfoliate (somehow) better than my clarisonic. LEGIT.
-fragrance free, if some of the "liquid" gets in my eyes by accident, doesn't even burn
-gentle but highly effective at getting off makeup, everything except waterproof mascara (which I rarely use)
-25/pack isn't bad if you use 1 a day
-no harsh chemicals

Cons:
-would (like the others already stated) prefer a plastic closure, but I store the wipes lid side down and am careful to close them properly, so they work fine.
-a bit pricey (more than.. store brand wet wipes!) but worth it if you can afford them
-they aren't great for the environment (obvs) and are a disposable product.. but useful in travelling

Overall:
BUY THESE.

These are by far, my new favorite wipes! They don't have any fragrance but smell a little soapy. The texture is very nice...I like to use the exfoliating side to really scrub off MU. They do a great job of removing mascara, as well, and leave my face feeling clean without leaving behind any grease or film, like some wipes will do. It felt fine to use my moisturizer afterwards and made my routine simple while I was traveling. I am repurchasing these for sure.
