Neutrogena Towelettes Waterproof Alcohol Free Plant Based Reviews Summary

Effectiveness

Pros:

• "These makeup wipes are the best! I've used a few other brands and I had the problem of my eyes stinging and burning when I took off eye makeup. I don't have that problem with these wipes."
• "I’ve tried several other brands of make up remover wipes and these continue to be the best for getting the toughest cosmetics off with the least amount of effort."
• "The lipstick stayed on my lips all day through eating and drinking with no smudging whatsoever. I used a wipe and it came right off with no problems at all."
• "They're thick and moist enough to take everything off with one wipe."
• "They remove my makeup very easily with minimal tugging or pulling as you might expect."
• "Takes off all of my makeup. I wear black liquid eyeliner and mascara and it takes it all off."
• "These wipes really do an excellent job of quickly removing makeup."

Cons:

• "The package says it removes makeup including waterproof mascara in seconds. I did not find either of those statements to be true."
• "When these wipes are actually wet they are great and take the makeup off but these wipes are so dry it does absolutely nothing."
• "These makeup wipes have had a strange mildewy odor the last few times I’ve purchased them. Additionally, they are not moist enough so I find myself dragging them on my skin."
• "Works well for removing all my makeup but not my stay put waterproof mascara."
• "After using three towelettes, a lot of makeup was left behind on my face."
• "The wipes were a little on the drier end when I received them, they still did the job though, just added a touch of oil on them when removing eye make up."
• "They don’t work super well for a certain mascara I use, either."

Skin Sensitivity

Pros:

• "Now that Neutrogena makes these wipes out of biodegradable plant-based fibers, I can go back to using them guilt-free."
• "Removes makeup. What else is there to say? No irritation, no stupid fragrance - sensitive skin approved."
• "They are very gentle on my skin and I have found that I do not need to use moisturizer afterwards."
• "Each gentle, soft, moist towelette is ideal for sensitive skin & contact lens wearers."
• "They feel soft and gentle on my skin."
• "The wipes for sensitive skin do not cause any irritation."
• "I have sensitive skin, but these makeup wipes don't bother my skin at all."

Cons:

• "The fragrance-free wipes gave me a horrible face burn."
• "These wipes claim to be “fragrance free,” but they have a very pungent chemical scent that burns my nostrils."
• "Smells AWFUL and very rough on my skin. Ended up with tiny cuts all over my face, neck and shoulders."
• "Unfortunately these wipes are *not* for sensitive skin as they burn after using, especially around the eyes."
• "After 5 days of breaking out in facial hives and not knowing why, I finally figured out it was due to the fragrance-free makeup wipes."
• "These facial wipes didn't seem fresh to me... Didn't really smell very good and made my face break out."
• "What a terrible product. After using these make up wipes I had a ton of bumps all over my face!"

Packaging

Pros:

• "Resealable packaging isn’t that resealable so having a holder for wipes helps keep them moist."
• "The package has a peel-back cover and the wipes easily pull out. The cover then reseals."
• "The soft pack would travel easily, too. And, the peel up opener flap closes securely."
• "Use the wipes to remove makeup before bedtime. One sheet takes care of the whole face. Most important is the seal works well to keep the air from getting in and the wipes stay moist."
• "They seal nicely too."
• "The packaging is great for travel."
• "They’re especially great for travel."

Cons:

• "The flap doesn’t stay closed once it’s been open a couple of times, which leads to the wipes drying out."
• "I do love these wipes. They are great at removing makeup and leaving my face feeling clean. I only wish the closure was tighter on the package because it is easy for the flap to stay open causing the towels to dry out."
• "The sticker that covers the tissues does tend to come off."
• "The only complaint I have it that the opening tears very easily, no matter how carefully I open it."
• "Too expensive to have them dry out constantly."
• "I wish the package had a better reseal design."
• "My only complaint is that they can get dried out if the little piece over the top of the package is not sealed properly."

Value

Pros:

• "I have it on subscription."
• "This was a great deal for a pack of 2, 50 in each pack."
• "Great price and my face is definitely is more hydrated and silky soft."
• "Buying the double pack makes more sense and you save more money than if you go into the store to buy it."
• "The value is too good. My local store sells one pack of these for $10 so this is a steal for me."
• "The value is great for the pack."
• "This is a real deal…almost like 2 for one."
