This takes my makeup off (even eye! - except waterproof mascara) with two swipes... can't beat. Seems a little pricey, but I'll pay for convenience.

Removes my makeup, tones my face, leaves my face feeling refreshed and clean: +4
Can be used for back to mac! ha! +1
Price seems exorbitant at first but if you divide it by how many wipes (I get the 100 pack) and considering I use it almost every day and only need to repurchase twice a year, It's not so bad: -1
I haven't had a problem with it drying out; I store it upside down so the liquid seeps into the first wipe I pull out. Just be sure to keep the silver wrapper (don't pull it all the way off) and snap the lid tightly and you should be fine.

These wipes take off my makeup really well! It takes off every bit of product off my face. Although, I am terrified of the smell. But, I will still repurchase these.

I rate like this:
Ingredients/animal-testing: If it doesn't contain parabens or perfume and isn't tested on animals it gets one lippie.
Packaging: Good packaging gives 1 lippie.
Quality: The quality of the product counts for 3 lippies.
Ingredients/animal-testing: The wipes contains perfume (and the smell is quite overwhelming...). So 0 lippies for that.
Packaging: I love the packaging! I like the crackling sound it makes, and the closure is really nice - I wish all of my make-up-removing wipes came in this packaging. So 1 lippie for packaging.
Quality: This is horrible for my face! It makes me break out, and irritates my skin very much! After one week of using these it was so painful that I stopped - but I had 93 wipes left, and since they are quite expensive, I didn't want to waste them. So currently I'm using them to clean the rubber-part of my Converse-shoes, and they work really well for that! So 1 lippie for the shoe-cleaning-abilities.

Oh my goodness...the smell so these things! I am not sensitive to smells, but this is borderline offensive. I do like the packaging ( I like the crackling sound it makes hehe) and it does a good job of removing makeup.
But I feel they are overpriced and...stink! I will not be repurchasing.
EDIT: I took off a lippie because I just discovered it irritates my skin if I don't wash after using it. One night I was so tired, I figured I could get away of just using a wipe without doing a whole routine. After a few hours I noticed my skin began to itch! It never has done that before.

I have a very oily, acne-prone sensitive skin and it is very picky to products that I use on my face. I tried this because whenever I go to the MAC counter, they use this to remove my make up and it removes everything, even my eye make up without the extra effort of rubbing my face with it. And it also smells really nice.
So I bought the big pack thinking that my skin wouldn't react to it and without reading any reviews here whatsoever. I've used this every day for a week and I even wash it off with a facewash afterwards as it makes my face feel very oily, I still broke out in cysts and small spots where I usually don't break out. I'm not repurchasing again, its very expensive and I definitely don't recommend for acne sufferers or those with sensitive skin. Don't leave this on your face overnight, because you will possibly break out, I tried that and I broke out even more. I'm back with my johnson's make up remover wipes, it does exact same job minus the oilyness, breakouts and only costs £3.29!

I love these! One wipe takes off my foundation (MAC SFF or ELDW most day), my concealer (BeneFit Boi-Ing), setting powder (MAC Blot Powder), eyebrown pencil, eyeshadow, kohl liner (Givenchy Magic Kajal) and mascara (Christian Dior Diroshow Extase). Yes, I wear this type of look M-F usually and am too lazy after a long day to wash my face. Absolutely no breakouts so far and I have been using these for nighttime cleanups the past two weeks. I'm very happy. Get the 100 count. THESE TAKE OFF EVERYTHING!

These wipes are really good. Some people may not like the scent, but I happen to LOVE it. It's a soft calming scent ( at least to me) and I'm addicted to them. The wipes are large and have enough moisture in them to get the job done. Some might not like the "greasy residue" it leaves behind but I don't mind it cuz I think it adds to the moisture factor, plus when I'm not exhausted from a long day with my 2 little ones, I follow up with a facial cleanser and it takes care of that factor. They don't break me out and I will continue to repurchase them again and again. Its a better deal if you buy the bulk pack.

The most important thing to remember when you are using these: their primary function is to remove makeup. with that in mind, it is much easier to forget the other drawbacks.
the wipes themselves are of a good size, and are rather oily. they are very moist and thus super efficient with removing makeup, including foundation, heavy eye makeup with waterproof mascara and lipstick. at first use, they leave your skin oily but if you sit around for 2mins or so it dries and your skin is left with NO residue. however, i personally like to wash my face after it as i just dont feel like the wipes will clean my skin in that sense.
when i first got the wipes, i thought that packaging was pretty ingenious as it seemed airtight. however, after going through about 10 packs of these, i got to say, that is not the case. when you are down to the last few wipes, the seal seems to have "eroded" or something through daily usage and the pack always gets inflated with air throughout the course of the day. a very annoying situation but the SA said if i tried placing the wipes face down when im done with them it would hinder the "air situation". yet i can tell you with experience that it does not.
so, why do i buy it despite all that? it is because it is truly the most efficient wipe on the market in terms of makeup removing power. i even took off fancy dress halloween make up with it once and it worked absolutely great.

I have no complaint in how they work but I just thought they were way too expensive for the job that it does. I can find makeup wipes at the dollar store. I'm a true MAC lover but I wouldn't spend the money to get these anymore.

Lovely MAC product, not that everyone raves about these, but they actually work, and last according on how much you use them. I personally recommend the "bulk wipes" that way you'll have 100 count wipes for a whole let's say month. I especially love the scent of these, they have a nice scent to them that make my skin so soft, and clean after wards, gentle, but also does the job. The price may be a little off, but I think it's worth it, and if you plan on trying them, get the smaller size ones first. The great thing about MAC is that once you finish a product, re-use the product container, and gather any SIX MAC product containers, and get a free lipstick, OR eyeshadow, or lipglass(at store*)

At first I was a little hesitant about purchasing these wipes in bulk just cause of the price but I'm into the quality of skincare products so I just gave in. These wipes are amazing! I have very sensitive skin so besides the Kirkland wipes these are the only other wipes I'd ever trust. My skin type changes throughout the different seasons so this winter it was truly tested. I didn't have one single dry spot on my face and with the combination of using MAC's Studio Moisture Cream my skin always feels and looks so flawless.
I use these wipes to remove my makeup before I wash my face and then once more after I wash my face. In the morning I just rinse my face with water, pat dry and use the wipes before applying MAC's Studio Moisture Cream. Whenever I apply my makeup I don't ever have to worry about looking flakey throughout the day cause these wipes definitely do it's job in combination with the moisture cream. Not only does it remove any type of makeup you have on your face but it makes your skin feel amazing!
These wipes give me that "clean" feeling and the smell is nice. It's not overpowering and my boyfriend actually likes the smell considering how he's so picky about scents. We all don't have the same say with this product but to each their own. We're not all the same with our skin types so we all won't experience the same as the next but I'd definitely recommend this to everyone!

Whenever I go to MAC, I use these wipes to remove my makeup.
Pros: nice packaging. I like the snap lid which makes them less prone to drying out so quickly. They do remove makeup decently. I haven't experienced any breakouts when I have used them. I can't comment on how they remove tough eye makeup since I have never used it on them before.
Cons: These wipes are expensive for my taste. I usually use makeup remover wipes to wipe off "most" of my makeup, then I wash my face with cleanser to remove any excess makeup. Thus, I am fine using cheaper brands. I really hate the smell of these. Has some odd odor to them I can't really describe. Even after wiping my face off, I can still smell that scent reside on my skin. Because of the cost and smell, I'll take a pass on buying these.

I know not everyone likes these but me personally-I LOVE them!! They are my HG wipes! They are so refreshing, luxurious and don't leave my face feeling tight or dry. I've tried some Olay wipes which were pretty amazing, in fact did the job probably better then these MAC wipes, but nothing perks me up or makes me feel quite so special as when i use MAC wipes! I repurchased these-I first bought the 45 sheet pack just to try cos i loved using them to clear off makeup when trying on at the MAC counter. I seem to remember the 45 sheets feeling slightly thicker than the sheets in the 100 sheet pack. I don't use them everyday, cos they are rather pricey, I generally use them when i'm going away for the weekend and need something to keep my skin fresh without taking all my skincare products with me, or just days when i want to spoil myself! They aren't particularly great at removing eye make-up, they are really just used best as a skin refresh and pick me up!

I am so disappointed with myself for spending so much on these without reading any reviews! I was looking for something to replace the L'Oreal wipes I had been using previously. Comparing prices the MAC ones were not that much more expensive so I decided to go for them. Bad idea. For the past week or so I have been breaking out in areas on my face which I wouldn't usually get acne and it has to be down to this as it's the only new face product I have tried recently.
I don't even like the wipes themselves, they're scratchy, have a weird scent (it actually reminds me of wipes I've used in the past to clean a leather sofa - not something you want to use near your face!) and leave residue on your skin. As I have dry skin you would think these are quite moisturising but even I was left with my skin feeling oily afterwards. Those with oily skin I would recommend you stay away from these by all means!
Needless to say, I won't repurchase in future.

Yuck! I seriously dislike this product. It burns my face like you wouldn't believe. I like that they are super moist and it removes makeup pretty well. That's about it, though. Overly fragranced, too. Stay away if you have sensitive, acne prone skin.

The scent is fantastic, I wish I had a perfume that smelled like this for summer, that's all I can say good about this product, it's oily and from what I can tell would lead to some serious skin problems with me in the future if I kept using them. They are a big NO-NO!

I live and die by MAC Makeup Remover Wipes. I have very clear skin - and I want to keep it clear! They are very moisturizing but do their job very efficiently and effectively. All my makeup, including my heavy "night out" eye makeup, is gone quickly, easily, and completely. I separate it into "sections" and take off my eye makeup with one part, then rotate, do my face, etc., even my lips. If your skin is on the drier side or sunburnt, then yes these may sting/hurt. I however have never had any major issues except a bit of stinging when my face was horribly dry. These are perfect for those nights you get in so late you just cannot do your whole routine, but still want to take off all the makeup, sweat, and such before you go to sleep. I am never without a pack!
The top doesn't ALWAYS catch, so make sure you press it down so you don't get hard, dried out top layers of wipes. I too find storing it with the opening down (such as lying flat on my vanity) helps retain moisture!
