Neutrogena Cleansing Towelettes Review

I've given up on using facial wipes, because I find them not to be as effective as proper cleansing. But, if I had to go camping for a week and didn't have running water, I would probably purchase a pack. And these were the wipes I most preferred, back in those wipe-using days.

My favourite feature is the packaging; the seal is really good, and keeps the moisture in. But, if you're not using them every day, I did find the last few in the pack dried out a bit.

In terms of performance, they did the trick at removing foundation and eyeshadow; waterproof products like mascara and eyeliner were a little harder to budge, and you'd get a small amount of lash fall, but nothing too dramatic.

These are great for those nights when you get home really really late, and can think of nothing more than climbing into bed, and you don't want to wake the whole household by pottering around in the bathroom. Ideal if you've had a few wines too, haha.

I'm not usually a fan of makeup wipes and this was no exception. For some reason, every time I use makeup wipes they break out my skin, which these did as well. They did a good job of removing my makeup and the scent was rather pleasant but I won't continue to use them as my skin turns into a mess when I use them.

I LOVE Neutrogena make up wipes, both the blue and purple packs. What I love is that I can be sure that I will get ALL of my make up off - every single bit of it and only ever have to use 1 wipe. There's a generous amount of moisture in the wipes which I like as it ensures all wipes will have enough product on them to remove make up from opening the packet to the very last. It's usually a bit more expensive than other make up wipes but it completely removes all of my make up - including night time heavy make up, bold lipstick. It never has any affect on my skin (I have dry/sensitive skin) and there's no spongy like parts in the wipe so it doesn't absorb the product so much so that the wipes dry out when in a dey environment

I used the ones recommended for night time with the 'calming scent' or something along those lines... HATED the smell and the way they made my face feel! Yes, they removed my make up and stubborn mascara, but my face was left feeling greasy, almost slimey. And I personally can't stand how they smell. Wouldn't purchase again, but I would recommend these to those with very dry skin as the oily feeling I got probably just feels hydrating to others.

Whenever I'm in the market for new makeup removing wipes I turn to BR to try and find something that I haven't tried before. I am still on the hunt for the perfect makeup removing wipe so I thought this time I would try these. I got them in the 'Night Calming' style because I quite liked the Johnsons ones in that scent/flavour.

The packaging of these is your standard wipe style but in a nice lilac colour. I find the lid manages to stick down quite well even after you use them for a while. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

So the scent of these I didn't actually end up loving. I expected it to be somehwhat lavender-y and calming. But I find it sweet and sickly and to be honest just a wee bit gross. The wipes are nice and soft though, and they are damp enough to manage to get your makeup off your face. I didn't find them particularly good at removing my mascara as I found I still had wee smudges under my eyes the morning after using these. It claims to remove waterproof mascara but I don't believe that one bit. My skin didn't mind these though and I didn't have any problems with breaking out or skin irritation while using them.

I won't be repurchasing these as they aren't very good at removing waterproof mascara.

These remover wipes are really good, unless you dislike chemicals. They remove makeup easily, as well as ensuring your face is clean. I use these every night and my face has never been more acne-free. I am certainly going to continue to buy these towelettes.

I don't really love makeup removing wipes as they never get EVERYTHING off and while these are no exception to that rule, they're one of the better ones I've tried.

The packaging is nice and easy to handle, just like any other wipes to be honest.

The wipes themselves have just enough product on them to be neither too much nor too little - Just right I would say.

I find they take most everything off my face, except waterproof mascara, actually they even struggle with non waterproof mascara, however I've found this across the board when it comes to wipes. The reason I prefer these to all the others is they get my double wear off without having to scrub and rub at my face - a bonus for me :)

While I'm sure they are full of chemicals, there's nothing in there that stings or makes my eyes water.

Price wise, I find them a bit on the high side, but they often come up on special so that's great.

I will use these again as they're handy to have around when you can't be bothered taking your makeup off properly and they're the best of an average bunch.

I got given a few small travel packs of these which are very handy but I feel I need to scrub my face raw to get my makeup off with these and they leave a soapy foam on my face. I feel like I need to rinse my face after using these and would rather not have to wash my face twice. I hate wasting product so will use them up but definitely wouldn't purchase myself. Nice refresher but not for makeup remover.

These makeup wipes made my skin sting after using them, my skin doesn't easily get irritated but whenever I took off my makeup I would have to cleanse my face as well to stop the stinging uncomfortable feeling, however that would not be good if you were just using it for a freshen up because thats very unpractical so thats why I wouldn't buy these again.
