I have a stock of facial wipes at all times. They are great for a first step in removing makeup or as a one-step cleanser if I’m extremely tired at night. I have a couple of long-time favorites but I like to try new things (obviously). Recently, I gave the Simple Exfoliating Facial Wipes a try. They boast a “2-in-1 cleansing & exfoliating with 100% clean, no residue”.
First off, they are quite large as you can see here (7 7.9 inches according to the package). Right away I noticed the textured surface and that they are quite stiff. On first use, I liked the cleansing abilities and felt that the texture helped with cleansing and light exfoliating. But with each use after that I just could not get over how stiff these are! I can actually “hear” the wipe rubbing on my face when I use them. It produces a scratchy sound against my skin as well as having a scratchy feel. Maybe it’s just me and my overactive sensitivities to sound and texture…but I have to say I did not enjoy these wipes.
I can’t argue that they are good at cleansing and don’t leave a residue. However, I could not get over the stiff and scratchy feel (and sound) of the Simple Exfoliating Facial Wipes. I now keep these in my purse just for wiping off my hands after applying sunscreen. Very handy! A Simple product that I do currently love: Simple Eye Makeup Remover Pads.

Have you tried these facial wipes yet? Do you have a favorite right now?
The Simple products are fabulous! Convenient, good for your face, and reasonably priced.

I am so bad at washing my face. I am one of those people that goes to bed with make up on every night and my daughter who is a make up artists yells at me every day. I am not well versed in face clothes, but I’m not a fan of harsh and scratchy so maybe I will pass on this one. Good call!

Love exfoliating facial wipes!
So quick and fast and works like a dream.
I have this product in my makeup bag and I love it!
I like the Simple Brand of products .. I guess the stiffness ad sound is from the lack of harsh chemicals and preservatives used
