Advantages: compact, easy to use, cleanse, tones and moisturises all ot once. Disadvantages: can be a wee bit sticky, if you dont rinse after use.
I have been looking for a decent face wipe for a while now, I have tried all sorts of wipes at different prices and I could not seem to find anything to suit either me or my skin, until I came across Olay's daily facial wipes at my local boots store.
I love using face wipes, as they are so easy and quick to use. All you do is pull one little wipe out of the pack, wipe your face thoroughly and your done. These are ideal for people ... ...a sun bed.
The only thing that truly bugs me about them is when you near the bottom of the way through the pack and they start to dry out.
Where as the Olay Daily Facial wipes come in a box, the wipes are dry already and you damp them before you use them. This was the main reason I bought them I hate to waste things and these would last forever providing I didn't wet them.

These wipe lather up really well. Once they have been wet. So all you need is to wipe your face and trust me you feel like you have just stepped out of the shower.
So all the boxes were ticked and I was completely happy with my new buy, my skin was improving and this was becoming silky smooth, what more could a girl want.
SKIN TYPES
When buying the Olay cleansing wipes, you will need to determine your skin type as there is three different wipes available, so buying the correct one for your skin is essential.
The first type are Hydrating facial cloths for Normal to Dry skin, these are best used on very dry, dry cracked or normal skin. They help by adding moisture into your skin and hydrating it, within a week you will notice you skin is becoming softer and smoother.
The second type are Clarifying facial cloths for Oily/Combination skin, if you suffer from greasy or spotty skin these wipes will unblock the pores, and remove any of the day to day grime that builds up. The wipes will clarify the skin and reduce the grease.
The third being Soothing cloths for Sensitive skin, these are great for those who suffer from allergies or have reactions from certain chemicals contained in certain beauty products. They are a mild wipe that will cleanse the skin without causing a reaction or flare up.
Each of these three cloths has been designed to cater for the needs of each specific skin type. You can tell the difference between the different cloths, as each different wipe is identified by a different colours on the box.
PACKAGING
These handy little wipes come in a solid plastic box with a card outer sleeve, inside the plastic box sits another box and this is where your wipes will live. The box is a really clever design as you can refill the wipes at any time.
The refill packs can also be purchased from boots, and they do cost a little less that buy the whole box again. Each box or refill contains 30 wipes.
Also on the packaging is a detailed instruction on how to use, dispose of and store your new facial wipes. The ingredients are also listed just in case you need to find out what chemicals and substances are contained in the wipes.
As the box is neatly compact you can either carry it in your handbag or store it neatly on the bathroom shelf or dressing table.
THE WIPES
Whichever type of facial wipe you select, they are all designed to cleanse tone, exfoliate, and condition skin in one step to improve your skin, leaving it as healthy as possible. So basically one of these little face wipes can replace your, cleanser, toner, exfoliator and even you moisturiser, it is hard to believe the one tiny wipe can do all of that, well believe it Olay have managed to pull off a miracle.
If that isn't enough Olay have also added a cleansing rinse that lathers up, and removes everyday dirt, grime and makeup. This dual-textured facial cloth deeply cleanses and gently exfoliates to visibly improve your skins clarity.
Olay promise that these wipes are 80% better than your basic cleansing, toning and moisturising regimes.
The facial cloth itself is a rounded rectangle shape and it is a little larger than the face wipes I have previous tried before. These Olay cloths are two wipes stuck together, once of which is very soft and smooth and the other being slightly rougher, the rough side is to exfoliate and remover residue and the soft side is to tone and moisturise.
HOW TO USE THE WIPE
Pull a little wipe for the box and add a small amount of water to it, rub the wipe vigorously until the cloth reacts to the water and foams up.
It is very surprising how much foam you will get, then with the rough side wipe all around your face and neck, if look at the wipe after you have done this you will see tiny bits stuck into the little holes on the rough side, if at this point you don't see bits wipe again because more often than not your skins pores are blocked. When you notice tiny bit on the rough side you know the wipe is doing its job.
After you have cleared your skin with the rough side, you can turn the wipe over and use the smooth side to finish off. This smooth side will moisturise your skin.
If you are removing make-up or water proof mascara these are great, using the softer side wipe off all eye makeup. These will remove every last speck of stubborn mascara without irritating your eyes, like some cleansing wipes can do.
After you have completed the wiping process, you should rinse out the cloth until all the foam has gone, and then re-wipe your face and rinse. After you have rinsed your face throw away the wipe and the jobs done.
I have learned that if you done rinse your face after you have used the wipe, it will become quite tight and feel very sticky, if you don't rinse it properly you will notice I am sure.
Once you have used these wipes and rinsed, your skin will feel silky soft, rejuvenated and deeply cleaned and fresh feeling.
CONCLUSION
As soon I started to use these I knew they were great, my skin instantly felt smoother and softer, even some areas were feeling tighter.
I now use the on a regular basis, after 2 weeks of these wipes my skin retuned to how it used to be, I was blotch, spot, dryness free. My skin condition has improved so much since I started to use them.
I am absolutely amazed by these, they are a true miracle I have since chucked out my collection of wipes, cleanser, toner and moisturisers.
I do use these once a day, I tend to do it before I go to bed, this way I remove all of the days build up of grime and dirt in my pores. I have also been known to use the same cloth twice when I was running low, as they foam that much I feel I am wasting them, so yes I have been known to rip them in half.
PRICES
The Olay brand is known to be a little bit expensive, and yes I would never usually pay so much of a cleansing wipe but these are amazing and worth every penny.
A full box of 30 wipes costs £6.99, which will cost you a little over 23p per wipe, so if you do what I do and half them it will cost under 12p per wipe.
A refill pack of 30 will cost you £5.99. This pack will cost just under 20p per wipe and 10p per half wipe.
As you can see the boxed wipes cost a 1.00 more than the refills, so it is worth holding onto you old box and refilling it.
As I have said these were purchased from boots, and I have seen them in Tesco for the same price. But you may be able to by the cheaper from other shops like home bargains, body care or even Superdrug.
Advantages: very convenient, hygienic, cuts down on number of products needed Disadvantages: perhaps not really suitable for very dry or sensitive skin
I have used Olay Daily Facials to cleanse my face for about 4 years - pretty impressive brand loyalty! The reason I first decided to try them was because I was about to go off on holiday for 2 weeks to Peru - this would involve staying in basic hotels with a group of strangers, carrying much of my stuff about on long walks, and finally, the Inca Trail! I didn't want to be carting various bottles and jars about up and down mountains, so the cloths ... ...weigh hardly anything, and for another, they don't contain any liquid that could leak in your bag - really useful for travelling. I thought that if I didn't find them very good for the face, I could always use them on the body like disposable flannels! In the end, I found that two weeks of exercise, fresh air and good food did not detract from the condition of my skin in the slightest (!) - and neither did the cloths. I've been using them ever since.

Advantages: Quick, easy to use, no bacteria build up since individual cloths, removes makeup and also cleanses and tones Disadvantages: a little pricey
I was browsing around Boots with my Mum a few months ago, looking for something to spend her many boots advantage points on. I needed some eye makeup remover and also a new facial cleanser, so was pleasantly surprised to see that Olay now did ‘Daily Facials’ which were supposed to do both – and more. However, looking at the price – 6.99 for a tub of 30 cloths and then another 5.99 for refills – was it really worth it? ... ...spending (and it’s always hard to find something you really want to buy with them), I wasn’t too bothered and decided I’d try them, and then see if I wanted to spend real money on them later.
So what exactly are they? Well, they are 30 cloths, about 6 by 8 inches, in a little plastic tub. This tub is great – it has survived being dropped into a bath, yet it was sealed so tightly that no water got in to ruin the cloths! A ...

Advantages: leaves skin smooth,makes face feel refreshed Disadvantages: none
Oil of Olay is a well known skin care brand for women.For years those lovely people who develop Oil of Olay have been creating different products that help tighten,soften and keep skin refreshed.Best known for it's anti aging products,many women use nothing other than Oil of Olay on a daily basis (and I don't really blame them).
And now they've made their service even better by adding these new daily facial products to thousands of shelves around ... ...keep our skin fresh and soft and replace soap,make-up remover,facewash,cleansing milk and toner on a daily basis meaning they save a lot of time in a morning (great news for gals on the go).
There are two types of packaging available for these the only real difference being that one lot comes with a tub to keep them in and the other is a refill pack.The one I am going to be talking about is the refill pack (there isn't any difference in the products ...

I'm a lazy girl when it comes to skin care - if there is an easy and quick way for me to do I'll try it out. Otherwise its as Miss Love says "When you wake up in your make up . . . ."
It was for this reason and a £1.00 voucher off that I chose Olay's Daily Facials. Even with the coupon they are breathtakingly expensive face wipes. I bought mine in Sainsbury's for £4.49 with the discount. The plastic container holds 30 cloths (aaah, that's over 10p ... ...of course. The box is sturdy and easy to open and because the cloths are dry already they don't do the baby wipe thing of drying out.
Now Olay seem to justify the expense by asserting that a simple cloth can eradicate several elements of your daily cleansing routine. Namely, your make up remover, soap, facewash, cleansing milk and toner. One instead of five steps which is great after a night out.
It also claims to improve your skin's condition ...

Advantages: So convenient Disadvantages: Bit too expensive I think
...a problem. Just slop the Oil of Olay face cream on straight after and I was all peachy smooth again! And they do get rid of mascara so no more waking up looking like a giant panda!
To conclude:
In my opinion they are a little too dear for everyday use. It is much cheaper to use the foaming facial wash, again by Olay on a daily basis. I would use these wipes after a night out when I really couldn’t be bothered (or couldn’t focus, ahem!!) ... ...And as I seem to be having less and less of these as I get older..altogether now, aarrrrr! I can see that these are going to last me quite a while. So maybe they are not going to work out all that expensive to me after all.?!!
I have to go now and put my thinking cap on and see if I can think of another product that will benefit from being turned into yet another wipe?? A wipe that will wipe away an overdraft? One that will wipe off all your mortgage ...

Advantages: Lovely clean skin. Disadvantages: The price for only 25 wipes.
I have a cleanser and toner. I use a top salon brand which makes my skin look totally fantastic. But then can I be bothered to faff around with bottles and cotton wool pads early in the morning or late at night? Well no, its difficult enough hauling myslef out of bed in the morning , let alone having enough time to spread several types of gunk on my face.
So I need a quick fix for those nights when you come back from the pub feeling a little woozy. I have used quite a few Olay products before and have been really pleased with the results. But this time it was'nt the brand name that lured me, it was the fact that they were on Buy one get one free in my local Tesco. I'm a true tight fist at heart!
