These are very basic facial wipes. What I hate about them is that they appear to leave an oily film. Not great for acne-prone skins!

I've bought cheaper wipes that were far better, therefore I won't be repurchasing!

These are by far the best makeup remover wipes I have found and I've tried everything from Lancome, Loreal, Neutrogena, Mary Kay, Sephora, Etc. They do a great job at removing makeup - even the waterproof, hard to remove makeup that some wipes miss. They are more pricey but I don't mind splurging on these because they work fantastically. The packing is brilliant because no matter what, the plastic peels on makeup remover wipes always come off - with these you can be sure that you're makeup remover wipes won't dry out because the lid stays on. These do have a clean, fresh scent to them which smells a lot better than chemical ones. They don't leave a lingering sticky feel on my face and they make my skin feel fresh and clean I've never had a break out from these wipes and they never irritate my skin. These work great on all skin types whether you have oily, dry, combination, normal, or sensitive. You get 100 wipes in a pack and it only takes one wipe do do light makeup and two - four to do heavy, dramatic makeup. Each wipe is packed with moisture to leave your skin feeling more moist than the typical makeup remover wipe. Another bonus is that these count for the Back 2 Mac program so you can get rewarded for purchasing their products.

I absolutely love how these smell. I usually get by with drug store wipes (Garnier) just fine, but I like to treat myself to these every so often. I love how the package has an actual lid that closes, as opposed to the sticky plastic seal most DS wipes have. These wipes are nicely saturated, feel soothing on the skin, and remove even stubborn long wearing products. I always fallow up with a seperate cleanser after usuing a wipe, but I could see these working as a one and done makeup removing step. I have sensitive, acne prone, skin and these have never irritated me.

I'm used to drugstore makeup remover wipes but I loved I'm actually one of the people who really like the smell that I had to buy it. I can see why people would not like the smell. It's pretty strong and can be overwhelming but I actually don't smell it anymore. I purchased the large size and for 30$ US, I thought it was really expensive. The wipes take off all my makeup with one wipe, I use two if I wore heavy makeup. It does a good job and doesn't irritate my skin like some wipes. I hate the greasy feeling the wipes leave on my face but like others have side it is for removing makeup not cleansing the skin. I make sure I wash my face well after using the wipes (acne prone skin). I have had a minor break out but I do not think it was due to the wipes. Overall I would repurchase, the true test will be if the wipes stay moist till the very end. They are a bit on the dry side, I store the package upside down per the suggestion of fellow reviewers.

I've been using these since college and will continue to buy. They are THE best makeup remover no matter how heavy ur makeup is! Even the darkest eyeliners and mascaras come right off. They smell great and leave your skin so fresh and clean! A must have!

I really like these for just taking off my makeup fast - if I have to take it off just to put it on again (for going out in the evening) and don't want to wash my face. My face gets a little irritated and red, but it goes away within minutes, and it's a small price to pay for the effectiveness of these wipes :)

I love these wipes!
I buy the 100 pack and love that you can get so many! For 100, they aren't that much more than any drugstore brand. The difference though, is that these actually remove my makeup.
I use a lot of eye makeup and these do the best job at removing it among any type I've tried.
The smell is fresh and clean. If you're somebody that is always complaining about fragrances, you may want to skip these. (I see sensitive nose types always have a lot to say!)
They get my makeup off and leave my skin conditioned, not stripped.

I love these wipes but they are way too pricey :( They smell clean and take off everyyyything! They are just your basic wipe and they stay really moist. I don't think they are worth the price but I got these as a gift. I only use them when I'm feeling too lazy to wash my face and they never make me break out.

I REALLY like these, but $20 for makeup wipes? No thank you. The smell is amazing and always reminds me of the MAC counter, but I can't be bothered to shell out that much money for a smell. I'll still with the CVS brand nighttime wipes - they're very thick and remove EVERY last trace of makeup from my face!

PROS: It removes makeup. Handy to keep at the bedside in case you "forget" to wash your face.


CONS: Not one, but four parabens. Horrible red marks/patches on my skin when I use these. Tried with a month in between each trial. (This is even worse when I'm removing the Armani Face Fabric foundation. Don't know why.) I was going to still give it at least a 3, but the scent is too awful, among the other cons I listed here. The smell is terrible. It's perfume mixed with the scent of a bathroom cleaner.


ALTERNATES: I ended up keeping a bottle of Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser (or the Equate version of it) with a box of tissues by the bed for when I have "forgotten" to wash my face.

These would be great if they weren't such a fragrance bomb! I normally dont mind fragrance, but these are just a little too much. The price along with the over fragrance....I wouldn't even accept these as a gift, let alone purchase again.

Takes off most makeup but not waterproof eye. All skin types should be able to use this product.

I was recommended these towelettes and was told they were the best. I was excited to give these a go and tried not to mind the fact that I spent over $30 for the big pack. Once I arrived at home, I removed my "Giorgio Armani Fusion Foundation" with my new wipes. I ended up using two of these wipes and my face was left red in certain areas, and looked irritated. I agree with prev. posts that it does leave your face feeling a bit oily and the smell does suck. I definitely wouldn't recommend these. On to next!

Gentle, soft and efficient at makeup removal. It has a nice soft rosé scent. It leaves my skin feeling soft and non-irritated. Love the snap closure on the packaging. Will repurchase.

I forgot that I didn't like these! Went to pro shop the other day sampling bits and pieces and the lovely MUA gave me a wipe to clean my hands. Well, I got home and found myself wheezing and coughing. Had to scrub my hands couple of times to get rid of the smell. I will not repurchase ( I have some at the back of a cupboard but should throw them out as I just can't tolerate the smell ). Sorry MAC, love your other products but these are a nightmare.

These wipes ARE very good, but the reason I said I wouldn't buy them again is their price. I also don't like the sort of greasy feeling they leave on my skin after - I have to rinse my face off with water after I use these or touching my face feels weird and gross. I bought the biggest package they had and then stopped wearing makeup for many months in a row. They've sort of dried out a bit now, but they still work well enough to take my makeup off. If I can't find any alternative (cheaper) wipes, I'll come back to these, but for now, they were nice while they lasted! Moving on...

These wipes are some of my favourites. I love that I can get them in bulk of 100 and they stay saturated throughout the whole package. Love that they don't irritate my sensitive eyes and remove waterproof eye make up quite well.

These wipes are a saviour for my skin. I don't wear makeup too often (just special occassions or weekend nights) but whenever I do, I use these to remove my makeup. They are so moist and have a nice fragrance too. Most of the times, they manage to remove mascara too. I go over my eyes with a cotton pad soaked in Lancome bi-facile after these wipes and 90% of the times, I find that the eye makeup has been removed well by the wipes.

I have combination skin and it doesn't break out with these wipes. I find that I don't need to wash my face with a foaming cleanser after using these wipes. I just splash on water to remove the residue and then toner and night cream...works for me.

Because I use these just weekly or so, they last me really long. My first pack of 100 wipes lasted me over a year and the wipes all had stayed moist, right down to the last one. Wish I hadn't thrown away the empty pack though...I didn't know it qualified for back to MAC.

For me, this is a really good product and I will keep repurchasing.

Pros:
- Can be brought in for their Back 2 MAC program
- Around 20 cents each
- Smell lovely
- removes eye makeup easily

Cons:
- Heard you only need 1 wipe, but I normally use 2
- Leaves an oily residue

Overall, it works, but definitely over rated. Getting a drug store product would work too.

I wouldn't consider myself to have sensitive skin but when using this, my skin felt a slight unpleasant burning sensation. The scent of these are great a sort of "clean" smell. But especially on my eye area these didn't remove mascara, some liners, and eye lash glue residue as well as cheaper options. I prefer Clean & Clear make up remover on a good ol' cotton pad any day of the week!


Each wipe does have enough solution on it, but I did sometimes have issues with it drying out despite being closed properly. Honestly I would only recommend these for someone who mostly wants to remove face makeup, or wears very light eye makeup.
