What are they? **************** A pack of facial cleansing wipes.
Special features? ******************* Johnson's class these as '3 in 1' facial cleansing wipes - they gently cleanse, tone and help to remove make-up including waterproof mascara. Johnson's do three varieties of these wipes - one for normal skin, one for combination, and the other for dry & sensitive skins - this particular review refers specifically to the latter. These particular wipes have added vitamin E and helps to add moisture back into the skin.
How are they used? ********************* Just take out wipe out of it's reseal able packet and gently wipe across the face. I usually find that the wipes are more effective at removing make-up when you actually massage the wipes into the skin, I tend to hope that it will also encourage the wipes to clean deeper into the skin.
Results ******** These remove make-up very effectively and I have tried these with waterproof make-up with the same results. Definitely not drying, in fact they literally leave a visible film of moisture on the face. The cloths feel very soft but are quite thick, so it's possible to use them on both sides. The wipes are also a good size as well - much larger than the size of the hand, so you can definitely get more use out of them.
There is a hint of some kind of scent - not sure what it is but it's very mild.
With regards to the layer of moist that the wipes leave on the face - it doesn't really evaporate at all - so you would need to wipe the residue off with cotton wool soaked in toner or water before following with moisturiser. However, I often find the wipes alone don't clean all of the make-up off thoroughly - only removing what lies on the surface. Usually, I apply another cream cleanser so that it reaches deeper into the skin and pores. More than often my cotton wool pad still shows make-up after wiping away this cleanser. I'm not sure about other wipes but with Johnson's, the wipes alone are not enough.
Cost? ****** Usually around £2.99 for a packet of 25 good-sized wipes (190 x 185 mm).
Overall? ******** These are nice wipes; they're very effective at removing surface make-up though you do need another cleanser for deeper cleansing. The wipes are very good for those who have dry skin, though I don't think it does anything to help condition the skin, not quite sure about the toning effects that it claims - I am having to rely on other cleansers and toners to do this. But overall, these are fairly decent wipes that are soothing and gentle on the skin.
