Reviews
Tips: Chemist warehouse often has a sale on Swisspers. Also buying a twin pack is cheaper.
I picked up a pack of these in my last shop. I wanted something to use with my micellar water which I use every night before bed, so I use them solely for that purpose.
They feel soft on my skin and the best bit is they don't leave little bits of fluff on my face like other makeup pads have.
I only have to use 1 each night, I soak it with micellar water and clean my whole face. It holds up so well, I will be buying them again.
I use these pads to remove nail polish with acetone and does the job beautifully. Doesn't disintegrate.
I use Swisspers Make-Up Pads for the removal of my eye make-up and nail polish.
I use one make-up pad per eye and along with a good eye-makeup remover, my eye make-up is removed easily. Even when wearing water proof mascara. The pad itself is soft on my eye lid but I am weary of the edge of the make-up pad as this feels quite sharp on my eye lid. This could be my own poor technique but it can sting.
The Swisspers Make-Up Pads are perfect for the removal of my nail polish as well. Considering I wear a base coat, two coats of polish then a top coat - the nail polish comes off with ease. The make-up pads are absorbent and do not tear.
When I am buying disposable make up pads, these are my preferred brand by far. They are soft, absorbent, and work well without leaving trails of cotton on my face like some other brands. However! I am not purchasing these as often now as I am a reusable make up pad convert. For travel, or if I am removing mascara, I still use these disposable ones. Getting mascara on the washable ones is a bit of a pain!
Oh - after reading other reviews - I agree that the edges can be a bit sharp, so its good to be careful around your eyes!
I loved these make-up rounds, they were great at holding micellar water to clean my face and did not fall apart. The stitching around the pad helped hold it together to effectively clean my face as part of my routine. I would highly recommend this product.
I have tried all the brands of cotton pads, but Swisspers seem to offer the most reliable and best quality. They can handle a little or a lot of toner/water/nail polish remover etc. and don't disintegrate when you are using (always a pain when that does happen!)
Tips: I use one side then flip and add a little more toner or whatever fluid you are using the pad for on the other side to get the most out of each pad
These makeup pads are great, as they don't disappear/dissolve with product on them - so are better quality than other brands I have tried. They are great for nail polish remover, toner, micellar water & liquid exfoliants.
Swisspers Make-Up Pads are an essential in my make-up removal routine. I am never without them because they are so versatile, and are better than other brands I have used.
I mostly use them with micellar water to remove my mascara, and any other make up.
However I also find them super handy to tidy up around my brows when I have used brow pencil, or to remove nail polish.
Cheap, cheerful, and for me - a must have!
These are a standard stock item in our house. Both my teen daughters use them and I do too. A good all round cotton pad.
