Makeup Wipe Monday #15 Neutrogena Cleansing Wipes

Hey all

This week for Makeup Wipe Monday we are talking about the Neutrogena Cleansing Makeup Wipes. I got these on sale once again because I don't ever want to spend heaps of money on Wipes that I am unsure about. Hey what can I say other than I still don't have a full time job yet!



These wipes I feel are very standard and not really stand out wipes. They do the job and are pretty decent at removing makeup but they just don't stand out. They don't irritate skin or have much of a scent. So they are quality makeup wipes that do a good job at taking off makeup. They are reasonably thick so they won't break easily or feel like they are doing nothing.

Would I recommend them? Yeah there is nothing wrong with them. Would I repurchase them? Yes if they are on sale most likely. However I am still likely to use my Coles ones.

Makeup Wipe Monday #14 Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliating Facial Wipes

Hey all

Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliating Facial Wipes are this weeks focus! I have already focused on Simple twice before here and here. These wipes however are completely different to the other two.

They are exfoliating wipes and I believe that they do just that. One side of the makeup wipe is smooth while the other side has small exfoliating groves in the wipe. It's good at removing makeup while also giving a nice smoothness to the skin.

I like to use these a few times a week to make sure my skin is nice and smooth if I don't feel like using my Micheal Todd face mask. I think if your skin is feeling crap and needs a perk up this are really useful, to make your skin as well as foundation look better.  There is nothing worse than dry flaky and bumpy skin making your foundation look bad.

Would I recommend this? Yes! Will I repurchase them? Yes I will. I am more than willing to pay full price for them as well but I'm sure I will stock up when they are one sale!

Makeup Wipe Monday #13 Garnier Refreshing Makeup Wipes Normal to Combination Skin

Oh hai!

This week I am focusing on the Garnier Refreshing Makeup Wipes Normal to Combination Skin. These were on sale when I was grocery shopping a while back and I just had to get them. Garnier recently updated their skincare range with adding new products along with updating the packaging on the old.

The ones I picked up are for normal to combination skin, which I always find it difficult it decide whether the wipes suit section skin types. I think if you have skin issues don't use just makeup wipes! These wipes are the bumpy kind that I like, I feel like they remove makeup better with the bumps. These are moist and stay considerably wet for a long period of time in the packet.

Would I recommend these wipes? Yeah I would, I think they are great quality. Will I repurchase them? Maybe if they are on sale.

Makeup Wipe Monday #12 Nivea Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes Dry andSensitive skin

Yo

I have recently been trying out the Nivea Gentle Facial Cleansing Wipes Dry and Sensitive skin thus it is the focus of today's post.



These makeup wipes have a strong fragrance, the smell isn't too unpleasant though. The wipes are reasonably thick but thinner than most of the higher priced supermarket brands. They are decently moist though which you would expect from Nivea. The wipes take off your makeup with one or two wipes, one is not enough and two is too much, no in between. I don't think I really noticed that it was particularly good for dry or sensitive skin likes it claims it is made for. I found it strange that there is a  fragrance when it is for sensitive skin as they don't really go together in my opinion.

The price of these wipes are higher than most found at a supermarket and not what I would call budget friendly, they are middle of the range.

Would I recommend these? Yes there is no reason not to. Will I repurchase these? Maybe if they were on sale.

Makeup Wipe Monday #10 Simple Regeneration Age Resisting Cleansing Wipes

Hey you!

It's Monday and you know what that means Makeup Wipe Monday post! Today we are focusing on the Simple Regeneration Age Resisting Cleansing Wipes.  I have done a post on the original makeup wipes. The originals ones are very hyped about on Youtube and the blogging world, So when I saw these on sale I thought I would snatch them up. The Simple range is actually on sale this week at Coles for two more days. (ends Tuesday 11:59pm).



I enjoyed the wipes overall there are a good consistency and reasonably moist. The wipes take off all of your makeup in the one go. The wipes are also really gentle on skin and don't leave them feeling tight or looking red! There is nothing that I can say with these wipes.

I however do not find these different to the original wipes and I am not sure what actually makes them age resisting! I don't see how a makeup wipe can prevent aging in all honesty. I got these because I do like the original wipes and thought I would try a different version of the same wipes.

Would I recommend them? Yes. Would I repurchase them? I would suggest going for the original or go for my favourites Coles ones.

Makeup Wipe Monday #9 CE Natural Essentials Aloe Vera Facial Wipe

Hi everyone! 



Today we are talking about the CE Natural Essentials Aloe Vera Facial Wipes. I had never heard about these before I bought them. I got mine at La Mania Direct at Essendon Fields and I will link the website here for in case you want to try the wipes yourself.

The wipes are made in Australia (yay!), Alcohol free, Hypo-allergenic and includes Aloe Vera as well as Vitamin E. All of these make the wipe sound pretty good before using them. Aloe Vera is always nice in skincare as is so soothing.

The wipes themselves are nice and thick which I enjoyed. However the wipes are slightly too dry for my taste. It takes two wipes to take off make up completely but it will do the job.

would I repurchase most likely not as the price was on the more expensive side and I think the Coles wipes are better in general. I would consider buying them again in the summer though because of the aloe vera.

Makeup wipe Monday #8 Derma Intensive +

Hi lovelies! 

I got these wipes from Coles and they are extremely cheap. They weren't the best quality but it is decent enough for the price. It was decent enough for taking mistakes off my face while doing my makeup or cleaning my dirty makeup brushes while doing my makeup. I most likely will not purchase these wipes again. As I can get better quality wipes for a similar price. These wipes dry out extremely quick and don't take off your makeup in one wipe, at least two are needed. Basically these are one of the cheapest brands on the market and there quality reflects that.

Makeup Wipe Monday #7 Burt's Bees Facial Cleansing Towelettes



This weeks review is the Burt's Bees Facial Cleansing Wipes. Like most natural products this has a strange smell. It isn't too bad and you get used to it. The wipes are thin and flat, they are moist but it dries quickly in the packaging even though there is the plastic lock at the front. The wipes don't remove all the makeup which is annoying considering these are more expensive than other "drug store" brands.

In all honestly I will not repurchase these wipes even though they are a choice for a more natural makeup wipe. There are no parbens, phthalates, or petrochemicals. So if you are looking for a natural makeup wipe give these a try however there are better working wipes than these. I am all for natural products however I want to use products that work the best.

Makeup Wipe Monday #6 Biore- Daily Deep Pore Cleansing Wipes



You might have guessed by the title but this Make up Wipe Monday post is featuring the Biore- Daily Deep Pore Cleansing Wipes. I really like this brand and had already tried the sample size packs before. However if you use the sample size packs and they are in green packaging they are over a year old. They came out with new packaging last year so please keep that in mind if you by the wipes in the green packaging they are older than the white packaging.

These wipes are the cleansing ones from the brand so they are a more harsh feeling. They are made to cleanse the skin not just remove make up. I don't believe they are the best for removing the make up. The brand has another wipes which is more focused on removing make up.

The wipes themselves have bumps on them which I am a fan of. I think that if you are going to be too lazy to cleanse your skin before you to go to sleep this would be an option that you can consider.

They are chemical smelling wipes which I am not a fan of. I have been trying to use more organic products and a product that just reminds me of chemicals is something that I want on face!

Makeup Wipe Monday #5

Hey all
This week's Makeup Wipe Monday is focusing  on the Savvy by DB makeup removing wipes with Vitamin E. I got these wipes in my Priceline beauty bag for free and they were ones that I wouldn't have rushed out to try myself. The wipes weren't bad at all. The wipes itself wasn't smooth and had the bumps on them that I like. The material however was pretty thin. It was an average wetness and I feel if it was open for too long it would dry out quicker than other brands. The price is pretty good though which is a bonus with it only being $4.99 and the brand on sale often. Would I repurchase these wipes not likely as I prefer other ones and I still have plenty more to try. Saying that they are not a bad wipe.


(My ratty used up packet!)

Makeup Wipe Monday #4

Oh Hai
Today's Makeup Wipe Monday is on the Coles 4 in 1 Cleansing Wipes. These are only $2.50 for 25 at Coles which is a steal and a price I am more than willing to pay on wipes. I bought these on impulsive during one of many shops at Coles, since I had already started this series I figured I would give them ago. I can now say that these are my favourite Cheap Makeup Wipes, by this I mean lower than $3.00 (or budget wipes if you will). I think they are great quality for the price and I have already repurchased them. They are a plain smooth wipe, very wet and reasonably thick. They do a pretty good job at taking off your makeup with just using the one wipe. Along with not having a noticeable fragrance the wipes don't irritate my skin or leave it red at all. So if you want some cheap makeup wipes that work well I would seriously recommend the Coles 4 in 1 Cleansing Wipes.

Makeup Wipe Monday #3


I just want to start with saying how hyped up these make up wipes are. I think it is hard to watch an empties video on YouTube without seeing them pop up. I really like the brand simple and have blogged about them before (make up remover) so I was excited to try the wipes.
These are just flat wipes which is not my favourite but they are a thick material which makes up for that. They are reasonably moist and I would go as far to say that they take off a full face of make up. There is a slight scent to them but it's not a fragrance which is good for sensitive skin. Simple aim to be usable  for sensitive skin and I agree these wipes don't Irritate my skin at all.

Would I buy them again? Yes I would. However for every time I need make up wipes as these are about $7 for a pack of 25. Which isn't that expensive however for a poor uni student it's on the pricier side of wipes. However Simple is always on sale somewhere.

6th of May- Makeup Wipe Monday #1

Makeup Wipe Monday 1

Hey there lovely!
This is the first post of my new series! I the first makeup wipes I am going to talking about is the Models Prefer DEEP clean, 3 in 1 exfoliating cleansing wipes.
Like the name suggests these are exfoliating wipes meaning they have little bumps all over the wipe. I love wipes that have these as they take makeup off alot better. The packaging for these are also great as it has a plastic lid which helps to keep the wipes fresh. The wipes are really wet and don’t seem to dry up. I have sensitive skin and the wipes haven’t made me break out or go red.
The price is about $7 to $7.50 however I got mine on sale for $3.50. The price is the only downside to the product.
Overall I really like these wipes I really do like these wipes. Will I buy them again yes I will. I may wait to see if they go on sale again and stock up though. If you haven’t tried them you should as they do a good job of removing your makeup.
