Make-up remover wipes have never really been my thing. Mainly because all of the ones I’ve tried left behind a residue or they were too strongly scented.
*Cue Lumene Sensitive Touch Gentle Cleansing Wipes* (I’m pretty sure these are the first make-up removing wipes I genuinely like!)
Description from Lumene:

Product has been developed in co-operation with the Finnish Allergy and Asthma Federation. 25 pieces – size of towelette: 5,9 x 7,8 inches.
My Thoughts:
These wipes are very soft and do a great job at removing all kinds of makeup. Pretty much the only thing that they don’t work on is my mascara, I have to go over it with my normal liquid makeup remover but that’s no big deal. They remove my foundation, eyeshadow, eyeliner and even lipstick and I only need to use 1 wipe.
They are a tad on the dry side, but I don’t mind! Some of the other wipes I’ve used are so wet that they leave my face feeling sticky and that makes me feel like I need to rinse my face.
While they are soft, they feel ever so slightly exfoliating at the same time. I think the tightly woven fibers give it that effect. I also love that they are fragrance free! There is nothing worse than a overly-perfumed face wipe…(ok, maybe there are a few things that are worse!)
I should also note that these Lumene Sensitive Touch Gentle Cleansing Wipes contain NO:
- Colorants
- Ethyl Alcohol
- Fragrance
- Parabens
- Paraffin Oil
- or Silicones
Use:
I really like to use these wipes when I get home late and have ZERO motivation to remove my makeup (which is a big no-no!) I will also be bringing these camping with me this weekend to refresh my face and remove impurities before bed. Lastly, I like to use these in conjunction with my cleanser to get a really deep clean. I’ll remove most of my makeup with these first, then I’ll wash my face with my cleanser.
I enjoy the Lumene Sensitive Touch Gentle Cleansing Wipes a lot, and I will definitely be restocking them when I run out. The suggested retail price is $6.99 and you can find them at CVS, Ulta and .
Product received from PR for editorial consideration, all opinions expressed are my own.
Have you tried these wipes? Do you have a favorite facial wipe right now?
I was hoping you were going to love these and say they were perfect. For $6.99, I expect them to remove everything, even my mascara. Lumene CC cream is my everyday go-to foundation and I use some of their treatment products too. I’m glad the wipes don’t contain some of the not-so-great stuff that others contain, I just wish they did the entire job! Great, honest review that helped me!
