Gentle on my skin
Been using this brand for years and they have always worked and not irritated my skin so I will continue using them. They do claim to remove waterproof mascara but it doesn’t, however they do remove all the make up.

Best wipes EVER!
Excellent facial cleanser! Gentle and thorough. I highly recommend this product. It totally removes all my make up.. it never bothers my eyes which are very sensitive. Also it is the most economical way to clean your face, without having to spread bacteria, because the wipes are clean and fresh!
