My thoughts:

First, I’d just like to state that I love makeup remover/cleansing wipes.  They’re great for on-the-go cleansing, and for those lazy late nights when you’d just rather get into bed instead of removing makeup and washing your face.

I have had good results using the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes.  Prior to testing these out, I was using another brand of makeup remover towelettes that was effective, but, it broke out my skin after every use.  I also used liquid makeup removers, but, as I stated previously, the towelettes just make makeup removal easier.

I like the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes because with one wipe, I can remove all of my makeup, even my waterproof eyeliner and mascara! Also, it’s gentle and the pre-moistened towelettes with glycerin and the soothing extracts of cucumber and aloe help calm and add moisture to the skin.  I also like that Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes are soft, and are not harsh or abrasive on the skin.

There are things to keep in mind that you may or may not like about the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes.  Although the towelettes remove all makeup, it does leave behind a residue.  It’s not as sticky as when I’ve used my MAC Makeup Remover Wipes, but, it’s there.  I’ve found myself wanting to either wash my face after, even though Neutrogena says you don’t have to, or I’d have to use my Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Rose Water and Aloe  on a cotton pad to remove the residue.  Also, the first thing I noticed when I opened the packaging is the scent. It’s a light floral scent that you will either love or hate.  I don’t know about you, but I prefer my skincare products to be unscented.  The same floral scent is found in their  Ultra Gentle Hydrating Cleanser, which I am currently testing.  So far, so good!

What’s great about these wipes, isn’t just the price, which is between $6.99-7.99 depending on where you purchase it.  I’m into products that are paraben-free, and unlike the other wipes I’ve used, the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes contain no parabens.

I wish the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes came in larger quantities.

P.S. You may want to store these wipes in an ziploc bag to prevent them from drying out.  I go through wipes pretty quickly, so I do not have that issue.

Have you tried the Neutrogena Makeup Remover Hydrating Cleansing Towelettes?
