These wipe are great in that they do cleanse the skin and remove make up - even water proof mascara without leaving an oily residue. However it wasn't as quick as I anticipated and took a good few atempts to get all the mascara off. I also found them more abrasive than other brands I have used. I do like the fact that they do not have unnecessary ingredients but use natural ingredients instead.

Tips: Seal the pouch and then turn it over- that way the next one for use will not have dried out if you have not sealed it properly :)
Firstly I was pleasantly surprised to be reviewing these cleansing facial wipes as I admit I can be a bit slack at washing off my makeup at night. So this was a good product for me to review. I followed the instructions on the pack, wiping over the eyelids, face and neck. It was amazing to see the amount of makeup on the wipe afterwards (much to my horror), the wipes had done the job of removing my makeup every time I had used them. My skin felt fresh and clean. One problem I have found using the wipes is that the fabric felt a bit scratchy on the gentle skin around my eyelids so I had to be careful using them in this area. I love that Simple Kind to Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes contain natural ingredients as this has become an important factor to me when selecting beauty products.
Tips: Be extra gentle when using this product around the eyelid area, especially if you have sensitive skin.
First off I got extremely exited when I was selected to review this product as I used to use the Simple skin care range when I was a teenager with no issues.
The first time I used these wipes was after an evening out when I had been wearing an awful lot of makeup (skin and eyes). I needed about 3 wipes for my skin to feel totally clean and free of foundation. For this part I think the wipes are excellent. It definitely was a lot easier than fetching my cleanser from the shower and splashing water about - especially after a late night. I would definitely use these again as a convenient way to cleanse my face after a late night.
My one issue with these wipes is it claims on the front of the packaging to remove waterproof mascara. My waterproof mascara wouldn't budge with these wipes. I managed to get a fraction off, but by this stage my eye area was getting quite sensitive from all the wiping.
Overall I think it is a great product for a convenient quick way to cleanse your face.
Tips: Use an eye-makeup remover for the eye area instead of these wipes.
These wipes are great for those nights out and those lazy moments, travelling etc. My only issue is that they do leave a oily residue on my face especially when I wake up in the morning. For this reason I only keep them for occasions when I really cannot be bothered doing my normal routine.
Tips: The Oil Free Eye make up remover with a make up pad works just as good without the oily residue!
I was hopeful when I tried these cleansing wipes as Simple has been good to me in the past. However, they actually started to irritate my skin and dry it out - but I was having a particularly bad bit of eczema at the time, so I suspect my skin was simply over-sensitive. I will definitely try them again when my skin has settled down a bit though, as wipes are so handy, especially after coming home at the end of a big night!
Tips: If you have eczema, just stick to what the doc has given you!
I found these wipes to be a little rough. I didn't mind them but when I used them on my eye area they left my eyes sore.
Tips: If I was to use them again I would stay away from my eyes.
These are lovely gentle wipes BUT they aren't so crash hot at removing makeup. I don't cake mine own, just concealer and mineral powder foundation, but you almost needed to use 2 wipes to clean the makeup off. These are fine for cleansing if you're not a makeup wearer, as they are gentle and lovely.
Tips: Great if you don't wear makeup, need to use more than one if you wear makeup
These wipes are so gentle & soft, when you glide them across your face they do a fantastic job at removing the makeup off the surface of the skin but does leave a residue behind afterward which prompts me to go & wash my face. It claims to remove waterproof mascara which it does but I wouldn't say all of it & I find you have to swipe at your eyes numerous times to remove it which can be a bit irritating. The wipes themselves are quite hardy & don't tear, I also use both sides to get maximum use out of them as they aren't the cheapest of wipes. I would purchase again but only because they are gentle & I don't mind sitting down for 4mins wiping my makeup off, I also don't mind cleansing my face afterward to ensure that film feeling is gone, as I probably would cleanse after using any branded wipe :)
Tips: Cleanse afterwards to remove the wipes residue & use both sides to get maximum usage at they're pricey little things :)
These wipes did what they said they'd do as they removed dirt and makeup from my face but I found that my face seemed to be a bit dry about 20 minutes after using. I think if I teamed them up with a moisturiser afterwards they'd probably be better for my skin.
These facial wipes were ok. They did remove my waterproof mascara easily but I found the wipe quite rough feeling on my skin and my face felt a bit tender afterwards. It also took a bit of effort to remove foundation with them. I liked that they are fragrance free and they were handy to take away with me over the weekend.
