These wipes are great! I don't use them on a daily basis, just when I'm away or I come home late and night. They don't always remove all my eye makeup, but they certainly do a great job and most importantly, they don't irritate my skin, cause break outs, or dry it out! A pack lasts me for ages, but seals really well so they don't dry out. They're nice and cheap as well!

These are a great item for travel and a quick clean when you just don't feel up to the full face-wash routine. They smell great, are super soft, moist and removed all my face makeup and lipstick... however, they were absolutely useless at removing my waterproof mascara! After a lot of trying and sore eyes, they hadnt removed anything and I had to use eye makeup remover. For that reason I wouldn't buy these as I prefer to remove all makeup with the one product.
Tips: Don't buy if you wear waterproof mascara.
im a bit of a lazy bum when it comes to night time routine but I LOVE these. They have a nice light fragrance to them and they're lovely and soft. I probably shouldn't but I cleanse all my eye makeup with them as well and they don't irritate my eyes. I have funny skin that reacts/ breaks out to a lot of products and have never reacted to these but I have to other brands. Removes all make up and dirt from the day easy peasy
Since joining Beauty review I have become adventurous when it comes to trying new products, you could say they have given me an open mind to try anything, eye shadows, lip sticks and even makeup wipes.
I purchased these from my local pak n save as they were $7 on special which is a fantastic bargain for makeup wipes, the packaging looks refreshing, you look at the packet and you instantly feel revitalised before even using the wipes. Opening the packet you can smell a light Aloe Vera scent that lingers on the makeup wipes.
The wipes are very soft, the softest I have ever used, my thoughts were that they would break easily when I remove my makeup but they didn't break at all! Removing makeup was a breeze EVEN waterproof mascara which is one of the most hardest thing to remove in my case. One wipe was enough to clean my entire face of foundation, eye shadow, waterproof mascara and lipstick.
Afterwards my face feels refreshed, super clean and smelling clean. The only issue I had is after removing my makeup it made my skin dry, I have normal to combination skin so normally this doesn't happen, a good moisturiser is needed after using these but I was very impressed.
Tips: Use a good hydrating moisturiser after removing your makeup, my skin feels very dry if I use this alone.
Thanks to reccommendations from this site I bought a Simple travel pack from the supermarket (more for the toner) and i too was really happy with the cleansing wipes - i have a rubbish mascara thats really hard to get off but these wipes do it easily! When i used the toner afterwards there was no trace of makeup on the cotton pad. Happy face :)
I've been wondering about the cleansing facial wipes craze for a while now, could a piece of moistened cloth really cleanse my skin, and all its daily gunk?
Turns out yes!
I like that it's simple packaging, in the usual Simple style, and it sits easily enough on my bedside table, not taking up too much book/beauty product room. The plastic tag is easy to open and reseals well too, so the towelettes don't dry out.
I like that it's not heavily scented, if at all scented. I actually haven't noticed any scent at all - but I do wonder if constant nappy changing has caused me to not smell ever, at all, because of the fear of what I might sniff out! The towelette is a good size and the bumps make it feel like my skin is being exfoliated while cleansed, and it really does get rid of makeup! Even my mascara! Post-wiping, my skin feels beautifully cleansed, not tight and dried out, and so far to date I haven't had a breakout.
These are great if you're travelling, having a stay over at a friends house, or if you just want to crawl into bed and make your nighttime cleansing routine that much easier. A fantastic product.
I've been looking for a great and affordable way to remove my makeup for some time now. I wear full coverage, long wearing foundations and they're real mascara by benefit. I've always found it so difficult to remove my makeup because these products just never want to come off!
So i got these from the supermarket purely because they were on special so i thought why not? Now i am so glad i did! These wipes are seriously so great i can confidently say its gets all my makeup off using just one wipe. Im so glad i dont have to use tons of makeup remover and cotton pads any more it was such a hassle.
I really like the packaging of these. The green is really cute and feels kind of organic if you know what i mean :) Also the sticky tab on the front is great. It protects the wipes and prevents them from drying out. Which ive experienced in the past. The smell is great too its rather light and not overwhelming at all. Another bonus.
I would absolutely recommend this product to anybody. Its great for people who dont wear much makeup and even people like me who wear ALOT lol. Its so cheap and easy to find your supermarket. I can't live without these now!
Tips: Use a wipe to remove all of your makeup before your cleanse,tone and moisturize routine
Whenever I am travelling overseas, I buy the travel pack of these wipes (a bargain at under $5). They smell great and work a charm.
They remove all traces of makeup and leave my skin feeling fresh and well moisturised, even on a plane that normally dries out skin big time. The actual wipes are a great size too and I only need one at a time.
Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes can be used on sensitive skin, although be careful with these if you do have extremely sensitive skin. Preferably do a patch test before using them on your face.
I found that these wipes did remove stubborn make-up (including long-wear eyeliner) easily without having to apply too much pressure. They're not the softest wipes on the market and have quite a rough texture, which left the delicate skin around my eyes feeling a little sensitive and looking red and puffy afterwards.
Personally, I prefer make-up remover wipes or facial wipes that come in package with a resealable clip-closed plastic lid rather than a sticker. After a few uses the sticker refuses to remain stuck and the remainder of the wipes tend to start drying out.
The packaging states that there are "no animal derived ingredients", although I have read that this product IS tested on animals. Their website is not very clear on this topic, stating "our parent company Unilever have been leading our industry and investing 3 million a year for the past 7 years on developing alternative non-animal testing methods." Not very clear on whether or not they still test on animals, so I won't be purchasing this product again!
Tips: Storing the package of wipes upside down (with the sticker at the bottom) does help to keep the package closed and prevents the wipes from drying out too quickly.
I saw these on special at Countdown and thought I'd try them, as I have sensitive skin around the eyes. One packet of 25 lasts me about two weeks, as sometimes I can use one wipe twice if I don't have much make-up on. I like that they are non-perfumed and are gentle on my sensitive eyes. They are non-drying, don't contain alcohol and are non-greasy as they don't contain any oil. They also contain vitamins - pro-vitamin B5 and vitamin E. I was impressed to find there's no artificial colouring, perfume or chemicals in them.These wipes are very moist, so can be used twice if you are not wearing a lot of make-up. They did a great job of cleansing and make-up removal, including waterproof mascara, and are very cost-effective, especially when you can pick them up on special from the supermarket!
Tips: I put mine into one of those zip up plastic sandwich bags, just to make sure they don't dry out.
