I got a pack of these for about £1 and thought it was quite good value at the time, despite getting the sensitive wipes it was still too irritating to use on my eyes and stung quite considerably which surprised me as other Nivea visage products I own were fine on my skin. The wipes themselves were quite rough and smelled absolutely awful (it was like rubbing toilet cleaner on my face), also they dried out quickly in spite of my trying to seal the pack firmly. the real issue was the horrible rash I experienced my cheeks were covered in itchy little spots and my face was red for about 2 days, then again I do have very sensitive skin so most people probably wouldn’t have such a reaction, however other people I know had similar reactions. I didn’t even finish the pack also, very disappointed, stay away if you value your face!

These wipes are too small and dry; apart from that, they clean well, leave skin feeling nice and have a nice "Nivea" smell. Cheap too. I'd only repurchase if I was desperate and all the Simple wipes had gone.

These wipes felt really dry to me, but they did remove my make up very easily and I didn't have to scrub hard to get it off. I have however, had some acne since I have started using these so I think they might be the cause of that. So I think I am going to dry a different product that doesn't break me out. But a good make up remover none the less.

I don't know if its the 'refresh' type of makeup wipes. I tried a nivea brand for normal/ oily skin. However, the sheets felt really dry and i felt like i was trying to rub it harder against my skin to get my makeup off.

It does a fairly good job in wiping my eye makeup (even waterproof) , but i would prefer that the sheets were more wet

I alternate between these wipes and st Ives wipes. Strangely my skin didn't agree with these wipes when I first began to use them. These wipes are available in a pink packet for oily skin and blue packet for dry skin. The pink packet were the ones I purchased first and they didn't work on my skin however the blue packet ate perfect for my skin. They remove make up without irritating my skin and leave my skin feeling refreshed. My skin isn't particularly sensitive however certain products just do not agree with my skin however I can say that these wipes are more than fine!

Walmart didn't have my usual St. Ives wipes (which I've been completely in love with for the past year or so) so I decided to grab these instead because they said "For sensitive, dry skin" which is exactly what I have. Well, they caused a disaster on my face. They made it so oily and greasy that I actually started breaking out just from the oil alone, my face felt disgusting. I normally don't get breakouts, maybe an occasional pimple, but these just killed my mouth/chin area. Not to mention that my face now stings constantly. I'll be returning them and would not repurchase.

Really dry wipes, have to really scrub your face to get any make up off, leave my face red and slightly greasy feeling afterwards. Bought them on special offer and I kind of realise why they were cheap now.

I am quite happy with these, they have that Nivea scent that I really like, they remove make-up quite well and feel really refreshing. The tissue itself seems good quality as well. I prefer the sensitive version ones though, they seem more moist.

I've never really liked Nivea products but I got these wipes because they were on sale and I needed wipes. I shouldn't have. I'm not sure what the sheets are made of but they just feel really rough against my skin, and around the delicate eye area it actually hurts. What's even more disappointing is that the formula doesn't remove make up anywhere near as well as the text on the packet claims. It was hopeless at removing my waterproof mascara and I had to almost scrub it off. It also left my skin feeling greasy and not at all refreshed. I will not be repurchasing.

I have a unnatural love of all Nivea but these wipes just do not compare to others I have used, Mostly due to the packaging. It will not stay closed. I love that it is scented as Nivea Creme but feel the wipes could take off mascara better. Would I buy again? Yes if I found them cheaper, but I would not specifically do an international swap for these.

Well I've been using this for a few days now and it hasn't broke me out... yet. The wipes are awesome seriously.
1. They smell like Johnson & Johnson
2. My face doesn't feel all stingy unlike the clean&clear wipes I've used last month.
3.It makes me feel sooooooo god damn refreshed and it really comes in handy in a humid country like mine.

The only bad point? When you first purchase it, be ready to receive quite a huge packet of wipes that is a little hard to pack into handbags.

Tried this for over 2 weeks and it broke me out pretty bad. I usually don't have this problem with other wipes but wanted to find something cheaper than the usual Garnier line, I shouldn't have! This leaves the skin greasy and shiny, with a horrible feeling of having still something oily on my face. I also find that it doesn't remove all my makeup. I do not recommend this for oily skins and for skins that have a tendency of breaking out! Garnier and L'Oréal (the Hydra-Confort wipes) are much better!

This product is great. I use it to wipe my makeup off when I get home and I found the smell clean and refreshing. They were moist and soft and I didn't have to scrub to get foundation, concealer, and blush off. I have sensitive skin and it didn't sting or make me red. My skin feels smooth and fresh, I moisturize after use and I'm happy with the price.

These are the worst cleansing/ make-up removing wipes I have ever used, and I've tried tons of different brands. They feel really dry, even when I first open the pack, and just keep getting dryer because the seal loses any stickyness after the first use. To me they feel slightly oily and don't leave my skin feeling refreshed. They have a bumpy, scratchy texture but despite this I still have to really rub at my face to remove all my make-up. The worst thing is the smell, its so strong and sort of reminds me of old woman's perfume. I won't repurchase these again.

I was desperate to find any cleansing wipes and the only option for me was this. I used it and it is makes my skin a bit fresh but I can feel it making my skin quite rough. Not a fan.

I don't understand the bad reviews on these wipes. I think it's because I've gotten the new formula.. the wipes are very soft and smooth, smell great, don't sting, and removes makeup very efficiently. It is also very refreshing, as advertised. I took these with me on a 13 hour flight and they were so handy and really got rid of any oil, and made me feel really refreshed.
The packaging, however, is hopeless. The stick-on seal for the lid fell away after i used less than half... so they dried out very quickly.
Apart from that however, really good!

These wipes are dry and scratchy and stingy and heavily fragranced. Not traits I like applying to my face! I dont know if I got a dud pack, but seriously, there is hardly any moisture in them. I have to wet them under running water to really get them to cleanse. The pack is useless and loses its seal instantly. These are the worst facial cleansing wipes I have ever tried.

I am essentially very lazy about taking make-up off when I'm about to roll into bed and often used to just give my face a quick wash with water and that was it. But these wipes make it so easy, they take off all traces of make-up and it's not necessary to tone. My mother was skeptical as she follows quite a complicated cleansing regime in the evening - so I used her toner to show that the wipes were far more effective than her more expensive cleanser. I see that some reviewers don't like the smell but I don't mind it at all. Highly recommend these.

I bought this product from a dollar store and it had Arabic writing on it, but I bought it anyways because it was nice and cheap. It's gentle on my skin and it removes make-up pretty well. It leaves me face feeling smooth.
