Not bad... not wet enough sometimes so then I would have to wipe wipe wipe!!!

This product broke me out. It works well with taking off makeup but since it broke me out I dont use it on my face anymore. I use it on my scar that I put makeup on to cover the redness. But other then that, the packaging is kinda plain. Price wasn't too bad but I wouldnt buy this agian.

This is great for deep cleansing, just like facials. I use this weekly and it removes a whole lot of grime. I think its too drying too use daily. One cloth can be used about 2 times.

I have been using this product on & off for more than 3 years. It does its job well, even removes light duty mascara without stinging. It neither moisturize nor dry out the skin, non soap type of foaming & the price is good too. The box is kind of clumpsy so I set it aside & tends to reach for other cleanser instead.

These the best and cleanest wash cloths for my face. These are unlike any facial cloths because they are more textured, dry and stiff like paper until you wet them with hot water to create a soft cloth rich with lather. They do an excellent job at removing makeup and exfoliating. I noticed I did not have any acne breakouts until I stopped using them. With other wash cloths that are less textured, I started to break out and my nose accumulated a horny layer of white heads. With St. Ives I didn't experience this. It's a good mechanical bufferer for the skin and leaves it soft, clean and smooth. It may be aggravating for sensitive skin because this material is the roughest I've seen out of all cloths I've used. I cut each cloth into one-fourths which is enough for my entire face. The smell doesn't bother me. I'm just glad it does a great job.

I have very dry skin. I cut one cloth in four pieces because if I use a whole cloth it will dry my skin. I had tried different brands
but St. Ives' cloths are the best because they remove the makeup and also are GREAT EXFOLIATORS! My skin feels soft and perfecly clean after using these cleansing cloths.

I think that these cloths do a great job removing facial make-up. They don't feel luxurious, as the smell is nothing special, plus the packaging is rather plain, but at least they are priced reasonably. Also, they exfoliate pretty good, and are not harsh at all, unless you have an extremely sensitive skin.

I appreciate and was attracted by the concept and modest price, but this particular cleansing cloth leaves an unpleasant residue on my skin. :( ...other than that, I would be happy with these - the fragrance is light, and the cloths are gentle yet efficient while producing a rich lather. I will not be repurchasing.

My mom won a St.Ives gift pack with these, cucumber & melon lotion and shower gel and a big ol' tub of the apricot scrub.

These towels lathered really well [i will probably cut the towels into quarters - don't need the whole thing] and have just enough roughness to give my skin a great glow.

Skin feels smooth and looks great. I will definitely purchase some of these when i'm done this big pack -- a great alternative to the granule scrub!

These lather far better than OoO or Dove, so I cut them into quarters. They are stiffer and rougher than the other cloths so be extra gentle. Because of this they can exfoliate better if you scrub more when you need it. They smell pleasant, clean well, and don't leave me dry. You do have to rinse more because of the extra lather, but of the cloths I've tried, these are my favorite. Great price, too!

I was not impressed with these at all. I have been using the OoO clothes but thought I would give these a try. They lathered up well but stunk. Also, they were very rough feeling on my skin. I would NOT recommend these especially if you have sensitive skin. I'll be going back to my OoO.

By far the best cleansing cloths I've tried so far. Cleans thoroughly, doesn't dry or irritate, and is very refreshing.

I liked these cleansing cloths. I used the Medicated Cleansing cloths (w/ 2% salicylic acid). They are pretty good at fighting acne, and are great for oily skin like mine. They left my skin looking healthier and more radiant.

So far these cloths seem to be worth the small price. I like using cloths in general and not face towels to wash my face; these cloths are not harsh or rough on my face.

I should continue use for a longer period, but so far, they're all right.

These are one of the facial cloths that I use. They do take all of the make-up off, but they leave my skin feeling a little dry. This is the only compliant that I have. They do lather up better than other that I have tried or are using, and they do have a nice clean scent.

i fell in love with the oil of olay cloths...then bought these ones on sale. they don't seem to have enough lather to them, they are a bit harsh i find due to the texture of the cloth and they seem to dry me out.
i will go back to OoO once these are done.

These cloths are really well designed. They don't feel grainy like a scrub, and since I wash very gently they work for every day use. I like the portabilty of the cloth and the fact it removes all makeup and oil from my face.
They're also the perfect thing (with a little more pressure)to remove QH MJ mask.
(My skin is oily/combo and acne prone.)

(Apricot Medicated Exfoliating Cleansing Cloths 2% Salicylic
acid) I can't say this is the best acne fighter, but it for sure makes my skin look more healthier, and alot softer. I'm very confident that it cleans my face. I've been a user for at least 6 months, I use it AT LEAST once a week, and I have never experinced reddness, irritation, or any implications for that matter. I like to use this as a part of my in-home facial regime. The cloths seem to get at your skin a bit more compared to Clean and Clear's cloths. It also comes in a cute, convenient package. And the price isn't really all that bad either. Probably one of the cheaper ones, yet more effective.

I've always loved St. ives apricot line but I did not love these. They were stinky and hurt my skin.

These were my first cleansing cloths so i really don't have anything to compare them to. They didn't dry me out, or leave my greasy, but i also don't know if they did much of anything. Didn't break out my combo/oily skin, and it left it soft. So i guess it's a good product. I use them to take off my queen helene mask. Effective because it grabs onto the stuff and gets it all off. I would buy them again - they last a long time (cut them in half, use once every few days.)
