This is by far the best towelette I came across for my combo/oily and sensitive skin. It doesn't dry my face, so I don't have that tight feeling after. It absorbs well and moisturizes skin. I don't even have to use a face cream before applying my makeup, it keeps make up looking great and I don't get as much shine from my oily skin.You can use this at night too, and my skin looked great in the morning. I don't use this every day, since it made me break out a little here and there, so I cut back every other day. These types of packaging for it I hate, because you have to tear open every time and the flap never completely closes and after awhile, the glue wears off. Wish they had the snap on covers, like WetOnes wipes or YesToBrands towelette packaging.

I picked these up on a whim because they were on sale, I love using wipes to remove my makeup, I've had good luck with Ponds in the past, and I always like trying new products. I have to say, these wipes exceeded my expectations. First of all, they smell great. They have a nice refreshing citrusy scent that I really enjoyed. I think the best part about these wipes is that one side is textured with little bumps that really help to gently rub away all your makeup. I appreciated that only one side was bumpy and the other side was just your normal soft cloth. The bumpy side really helped remove all of my heavy foundation and face products, and the soft side was perfect for removing eye makeup. These never irritated my skin or my eyes, which is amazing considering nearly every makeup wipe I've tried has made my eyes sting or water at some point or another. These just left my face feeling smooth, clean, and refreshed. Another big plus was that these didn't dry out too quickly -- my last wipe was just as moist as the first, even though after a while the sticky close tab didn't like to stay shut. Definitely impressed with these and I will be repurchasing.

I just want to say how much I love this towellettes. I have tried all of them with different scents and such. I have used them for about 3 years. I buy lots of them when they go on sale 2 pkgs for $6 CND otherwise they are $6 just 1 pkg. I love how it removes my makeup so easily with just one swipe and still be able to re-use it until all of my makeup is off. I love the feeling that I get after using it. My skin feels smooth after I use the beaded side. I don't know what u would do without it.

I enjoy the texturized cloth. It aides in removing full coverage foundation. I am able to remove everything except mascara. TBH, I haven't tried. I rather not tug at my eye area. It does remove eyeshadow, even longwearing cream eyeshadows and eyeliner with ease. The scent is not overwhelming and would repurchase again.

These removed my makeup better than any other makeup wipe. However, a few days after using these on a consistant basis I broke out horribly. These left an oily film on my face and even though I cleansed after wiping off my makeup, they still broke me out :(

I use a lot of face wipes. I use face wipes when i'm traveling, when i'm camping, after performances, and on nights when i'm just too tired to do a proper wash. I've tried a lot of brands. But i've found just a few i rebuy.
.
And these did not make the cut. First, I had to search very very hard to find these. The disgustingly stench-laden Evening Soothe towelettes seem to be everywhere, yet this version is hardly anywhere. I don't know why. They are certainly more pleasant than their PM counterpart.
.
This doesn't mean i love these. I really really detested the smell of Evening Soothe. This product is not greatly different in most regards, except it has a slight, powdery, citrus-cucumber smell, which is vastly superior to the hideous fragrance of Evening Soothe. However, the scent isn't all that great. And, frankly, i would rather pay more money for a better product. I might consider buying these again if i found them locally (i live in a major metropolitan area - they ought not to be so hard to find - and don't suggest MalWart - i won't set foot in that place), but i sure wouldn't specially order them off the internet.
.
I recommend these over Evening Soothe, but i don't really recommend them. I have tried a lot of DS brands, and of them I prefer Garnier Fructis Refreshing Remover Cleansing Towelettes (or whatever they're calling them this year). The scent is not too awful and they contain a number of decent ingredients paralleling some higher end products.

Smells very good!!! Takes off my whole face makeup off (heavy foundation and bronzers), it has great texture on the one side like little dots and it rubs my makeup off very good like i said. I but mine at walmart they have 2 for 1 price, so i buy many until next sale so it lasts me :) Some people i se wrote it dries out your skin it doesn't do this to mine but you see its all different because we all have different skin! I personally wouldn't want to use anything too greasy and moisturizing because i would probably break out , thats wha creams are for ! loovvve this product!!! and the smell is so goooooood (i had to say it again)try it you won't be disappointed..:)

I love these! They take all my makeup right off my face, even my waterproof mascara. Everything just comes right of and its so easy and simple.
It takes off all my makeup in just one swipe.
The towellets are very big and 30 come in a pack
It dries out my face if I dont moisturize afterwards.
The packaging is okay. When you dont seal it all the way they can get a little dried out.
I always have a extra pack of these just incase I run out.

I usually buy the generic Target brand but these happened to be on sale for 30 cents less. They smell great, but they don't work very well. The actual cloth is kind of dry, and it leaves my skin feeling tight. The Ponds Original Clean works a lot better than this scented version, but I will continue to save a few pennies and buy the Target brand.

Bought the cleansing towelettes about three days ago and I can't complain about them. I like that they have the little beads on the towelettes. My face feels refreshed after using it. It's not the same as using my clarisonic but I think it does a good job. The smell is also wonderful. Nice and clean smelling.

Ponds makeup remover towelettes or whatever you want to call them are by far the worst product I think I have ever used on my skin. I have tried 2 different ones. I had a coupon for buy 2 get like $3 off. I have normal to slightly dry skin, these dried my skin out so badly that it hurt. They have also left these weird bumps under my skin and have broken my skin out and nothing breaks my skin out. It takes 3 wipes to remove most of my makeup and then I still have to clean my face again. I don't wear much makeup. It's summer. Tinted moisturizer, cream blush, really light makeup. Still took 3 of them to remove the majority of my makeup. I don't think it's possible to emote how much I absolutely HATE this product. Ponds should be embarrassed to even manufacture it. And what's worse is they are expensive. I thought Walmart brand was kinda crappy but I would buy those 100 times over before I would ever use Ponds again. Save your money, use Walmart brand, Target brand or most any other name brand.
P.S. I tried to rate this product a 0 and it made me put a #, but I rate these a 0.

The Morning Refresh are my favorite out of all the Ponds Wipes. I think it removes my face and eye makeup better. ( FYI I have try all of the Ponds Wipes) The smell is nice, it's light and refreshing, hint the name. This wipe has little beans on one side. I think that help get off the your mascara and foundation. Don't have any thing bad to say about this wipe. It does everything that it said it does.
The packing is ok. It like like every other makeup wipe packaging out there.

Overall, my Holy Grail makeup wipe.

These wipes smell great and did remove my makeup well, not including mascara because I did not try them on that part yet, but I must say that it did sting a bit, also I found them to dry my skin a bit, I also have the other version the Pond's Chamomile and White Tea wipes which are 100 times better, more moisturizing, great smelling and the great benefits of soothing Chamomile left my skin soft, radiant and clean. These are probably good for just refreshing your face and for skins on the oilier side, the other one's are better for makeup removal and drier skins, it's not a bad product it's just not for me, I'll stick with the other ones.

I bought these by accident when I was picking some crap up at Walmart. I thought they were a differnet brand. Anyhow I used them because I wasn't going back to return them and now I wish I had. I know they are Morning refresh wipes but I need a makeup remover and these things did remove the makeup but left my cheeks burning. Now I have a slight rash or the bottoms of my cheeks. Do not use them as a makeup remover. Too harsh on the skin.

My favorite cleansing cloths (Noxzema) were out of stock, so I decided to try the Ponds towelettes. I love Pond's Cold Cream, especially in the winter, but the towelettes are just okay, nothing special. I bought the Citrus & Cucumber variety and I do not like the smell, and they make my face sopping wet. I know that doesn't sound like it makes sense, but it feels like I need to wipe my face with a wash cloth after each use. They were BOGOF, so I have another package, called Original All Day Clean, which I haven't tried yet. Hopefully, I will like the second package much better.


I kept the cleansing cloths in the cardboard packaging, so I haven't had any issues with them drying out. Usually, I put them in a storage bag to make them last longer. Not crazy about this product, and it makes my face feel very dry after I use the cloth, I will finish what I have, go back to my favorite product, and I will not buy this product again...

Nice aroma, gentle bumps on sheets for exfoliation, doesn't irritate my skin or burn my eyes. Not as good as washing with water but a nice alternative to have on hand. Wish the packaging kept them moist longer. Also wish they were less expensive.

I got a sample pack of these and I really liked the night ones. For some reason I tried them first, then these. I did not like these ones as much. They did have a fresh scent, which I prefer over the night ones. It is not as strong. I like the little beads. They seem to help although they seem to make the wipes a little more sticky. These do work for taking make up off. I gave it a try just to see if they can be used for other times and they do work. The only problem with using them like that is they seemed to sting my eyes. I had no issues with the night one stinging my eyes so I am unsure of why it did. The other thing and the biggest thing I was irritated by was that these dried out very quickly. It did not seem to make a difference of how tight I sealed them, they always dried out. I would give these a try again, but they would not be my first choice.

I was in a super hurry to get to work and I didn't have a chance to shower (yeah, I was late) so I stopped by a drugstore to see what I could find. I just got my nostril pierced and I have sensitive skin so I figured these would do the trick. I wasn't looking for a makeup remover, I was looking for a simple facial cleanser.

This product smells good, it didn't irritate my skin, and it didn't leave my skin tight or dried out. There's 30 towelettes in the package, I spent under $7 and for what I need them to do, I am happy with the product. I wouldn't replace my usual skin care system, but for a quick clean or a refresher during the day, these work.
