Super convenient product for lazy people such as myself! To start off, the pads come in a small, very light bag that reseals and leaves everything fresh for next use which is nice, and it is very full. The pads are small, very soft and thin, and just need water to activate. There is next to no mess using these. I have quite oily combination skin and the cleanser worked well and felt very refreshing for me, and did not leave any redness. Little to no scent that I could notice which is also a bonus. The pads work great for makeup removal, however you may need more than one for a full face. I thoroughly enjoy this product that makes cleansing easy and does not dry my skin out. If you are a busy person looking for a quick addition to your skincare, this is for you!

Tips: One pad for just washing your face, multiple for makeup!
I had heard of this type of product before but never used it myself. I normally use micellar water and cotton pads but these cleanser infused pads were the best of both worlds! I loved how easy they were to use, all you have to do is active the pad with water and it works to cleanse and remove makeup so easily! Swisspers is my go to brand for cotton pads anyway and these are just as soft and luxurious as the normal ones. I loved taking these on a short holiday as they are so travel friendly and nothing leaks or spills in your toilet bag. I am so glad I tried these and will be repurchasing in the future to keep in my travel kit and will even keep some in my work bag as well. I highly recommend these cleanser infused pads to everyone who wants to gently remove makeup and/or do a first cleanse in the morning or evening.
I thought the timing of this was quite divine; I was about to go on a work trip when I had received these to review. Work trip = having to wear makeup, which is always a pain given the aftercare involved. It comes in a pack that dispenses the wipes, but as you pull one out, the rest follow as if they are tissues - so be warned when you go to pull the first one out!
I initially used these on my bare skin as I wanted to see how they dried down, and to be honest, it doesn't really dry down. I found myself having to pat my face dry so I could apply moisturiser. My other initial thought was that the smell is overwhelming, reminding me of a mix of talcum powder and stale, faded old lady perfume clinging to hair.
I then tried to use it to remove mascara and the pads kind of broke/fell apart as I swiped across my lashes.
Also, after many years of using reusable cotton pads to remove makeup and swipe micellar water on my face, I found it really wasteful to be using these again particularly because of the plastic packaging.
It was also so hard to get the ratio right in terms of how much water to put on the pads, too soaked, and they fell apart, not enough water, then you're just rubbing a smelly cotton pad on your face.
Overall, I do not recommend this product. It's wasteful and doesn't actually work.
If you are a travel bug or always on the go you are going to love these. Very convenient two products in one and no need to run the risk of leaks in your bag, plus removes the liquid limit of flying. Add a few drops of water and you have a handy product.
Would I use this every day.. No but I would definitely be putting these in my overnight or travel bag
Tips: Only a few drops of water - don't need a lot
The first couple of times I tried these I thought they were awful. I scrubbed my face so hard and still had to use micellar wipes afterwards to get my make up off..upon reading the instructions again, it says to use small circular movements to remove your make up so I re-tried and they did a much better job. Unfortunately I've found I have a bit of mascara residue left (panda eyes) each time I've used them so that brings down the score for me to be honest and I don't even use waterproof mascara so I don't think they would do a very good job removing waterproof types. I also found I needed to use 2 or 3 of the pads (both sides with each pad) as they are very small. I do like that they are 50% recycled though, and the small size makes them easier to carry if you want to pack a couple of them when you're heading away for the night. It isn't clear which side cleanses and which side hydrates so I assume you can use either side first? It's unlikely I will buy these when I run out but I can see the convenience in them-so long as you have water available to activate them.
Tips: Use small circular movements to remove your foundation
You only need a little water to activate the pad they come with a dual sided-pad to both cleanse and hydrate. I found they ran smoothly across my face and removed my mascara with ease. My skin felt clean fresh hydrated and smooth afterwards. Its amazing what this little pad can acheive. There is a hint of a scent which was nice. A great concept and time saver.
I had high hopes for these 3-in-1 cleanser pads and was looking forward to streamlining my nightly cleansing routine. To start, I found the package difficult to open and then difficult to close securely to keep the remaining pads clean. This could have been user error but I do wonder if the package needs a re-design. Once wet, the pad cleanser still felt very thin and watery. The pad is also quite small. After wiping my face, it did look like it had removed some foundation as there was some on the cleanser pad but not as much as when I usually cleanse with my usual makeup remover. It did remove eye makeup but took several pads and still left some behind which made reapplication the next morning a bit messy, The smell was pleasant although not really needed. I felt that it took a lot of pads to remove makeup and even then it still hadn't removed everything. It wouldn't be good value for money for me. I am sad these didn't work as hoped but maybe the company may improve on them on time.
These cleanser infused pads are genius! They are compact and super light weight. Plus since they start off dry, there's no need to worry about them drying up in the packet. I will definitely use these when I'm traveling.
I usually struggle to remove waterproof mascara however these pads cleaned it off as easily as regular mascara. They don't irritate my sensitive skin or leave sticky residue on my face.
They do have a strong perfume scent that reminds me of baby wipes but I don't find it too offensive. The only thing I've noticed is that if I'm wearing a full face of makeup I need to use 3 pads to get it all off as they are quite small.
Tips: A few drops of water is really all you need to wet them.
These 3 in 1 cleansing pads I thought were a great idea. You add a few drops of water to them to activate the cleanser and they are ready to use. They would be great to take when u travel, especially because they take off waterproof makeup. They have a nice scent to them, sort of remind me of the smell of a baby product. I used roughly 3-4 pads to take all my make up off, I'm a little bit confused how much water to use because I definitely needed more than a few drops on each pad to make them really work. I did really like the way it made my skin so soft and not dry it out, it felt very hydrated and smelt really nice after. I think if you had a full face of makeup you would need to use alot more pads as they are not very big. I'm not sure if I would buy these but I guess it depends on how much they are because I feel I would go through them very fast for how small the pads are. It's a great idea though just adding water, I think for me I would just keep them for taking off my eye makeup only because they seemed to take off my mascara really well.
Good for travelling because you don't need to bring a separate bottle of micellar water. I found they they were stuck together when i opened the pack but it was a good first step at taking stubborn makeup off before i cleansed my skin. Will keep on to these when I go on work trips.
