Have You Used Face Wipes for On the Go Cleansing?

April 19th // 7 Comments

Skincare experts have said this (and myself included!) so many times – aside from sunburn, there is nothing worse for your skin than not washing your face or going to bed with your makeup on! We have seen a steady rise in women’s face wipes becoming a part of product lines, leaving no room for excuses when it comes to cleansing. While you hear phrases like “super convenient” and “on the go” when it comes to using face wipes, do they actually work? Do they have the same benefits as a liquid cleanser?

Have You Used Face Wipes for On the Go Cleansing? 

  • Yes to Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Towelettes ($7.99 ) works to alleviate and clear your skin when you are on the go. They contain salicylic acid to control the oil production, unclog pores and clear up blemishes. The tomatoes help manage sebum (acne-causing oil) while shielding it from environmental factors that add to your skin’s breakouts.
  • Josie Maran Bear Naked Wipes ($12) removes makeup and impurities from face and eyes, nature’s way. With a blend of aloe vera, chamomile, cucumber, and vitamin E. Free of fragrance, parabens, petrochemicals and are biodegradable.
  • Shiseido Refreshing Cleansing Sheets (£16) are convenient pure cotton cleansing sheets maintain the skin’s natural balance whilst removing impurities, makeup and excess sebum that can clog pores. They also contain peony root extract and rosemary extract to control excess oil and fight bacteria, whilst preventing blemishes and shine.
