Simple Kind to Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes Review

I'm a big fan of the Simple range. These wipes are great when you're feeling lazy and just want to quickly clean your skin. While they're effective cleansing wipes and leave your skin feeling clean and oil free, sometimes traces of heavy makeup remain. With a newborn, they make my skin routine just that little bit easier. Although it's much cheaper to use a proper face wash, these are great for travelling and were a well used item in my hospital bag.

I purchased this product at New World on special because I had an excellent experience with this brand name around Eye Make-Up remover. I have a sensitive and aging skin that is very dry and so cleansing the skin is always for me a tricky experience. Previously with other product names, I have found a 'sting' as soon as I've applied but not with 'Simple Kind Facial Wipes'. My skin was left feeling clean and did not feel dry. There was no residue to touch after the application. The pull tab to open this product was easy to use with clear directions. Once opened, I went to take just one wipe out, and that was easy to do. Closing the top tab so that the remaining wipes were left moist and usable was successful. The wipes remained moist until the last one used. As an effective make-up remover, this product is excellent. When tired at night I have been known to take the packet to the bedside table and half-asleep, go over the wiping regime in just 10-20 seconds. Wonderful.

I went through a couple of these packets and I can’t really fault these, very affordable and perfect for holidays when I’m too lazy to properly clean my face after a long night out, just wipe most of my makeup and grime off and fall asleep.

At home I use these as a precleanse, just try and get the most makeup off my face and then use my regular cream cleanser afterwards, it works perfectly that way.

It doesn’t remove all my makeup in one go and if I were to only use this to cleanse my face properly, I’d need 2 wipes I think. But I never expect this from these wipes anyway I feel yuck just using these and not rinsing my face with water when it’s possible.

I really liked these wipes and the Simple brand. I find them really refreshing and take off my makeup without it requiring too much pulling or more than one wipe.

I do wish it would do a bit better on my lashes, it doesn't fully remove my mascara—I wear a couple of layers, but even my cheaper wipes pull it off quicker than this!

I did like that they didn't dry me out and make me feel like I needed to put a tonne of moisturiser on afterwards.

I like them, but I don't love them—I think I'll stick to micellar water or my voeu brand of wipes.

I don’t use wipes that often but when I do I reach for these. For me I generally tend to cleanse using micellar water but being pregnant and tired and packing my hospital bag I have been reaching for these for the convenience.

So probably the biggest thing I love about them is the convenience. Grab a wipe and wipe away the day. It surprises me what I can wipe away on makeup and non makeup days. Very interesting to see eek.

Great on mascara which is surprising a few brands of wipes I’ve used still leaves the mascara in place which can be annoying the following morning I almost feel like I have to reach for another wipe just for the panda eyes but I’ve never really had that trouble with these.

Like that these are oil and alcohol free being pregnant I don’t need either of those things on the skin... my skin is definitely oily enough at the moment. These feel fresh on the skin and don’t sting especially near the eyes. They are soft too some I’ve used seem to leave my skin a bit raw but these are so gentle to use.

Highly recommend for travel and times when you need the convenience.. most of the time I don’t mind using an actual cleanser but this is a nice break.

I usually take these with me if I'm staying away from home, they are just so convenient. I love that the scent is barely there, it feels less harsh on the skin and senses. Personally the only downfall is that depending on how much makeup you have on, you have to use quite a few to get all of the makeup off of your skin. They're a pretty good price and I'll definitely keep buying them.
