I had heard of this type of product before but never used it myself. I normally use micellar water and cotton pads but these cleanser infused pads were the best of both worlds! I loved how easy they were to use, all you have to do is active the pad with water and it works to cleanse and remove makeup so easily! Swisspers is my go to brand for cotton pads anyway and these are just as soft and luxurious as the normal ones. I loved taking these on a short holiday as they are so travel friendly and nothing leaks or spills in your toilet bag. I am so glad I tried these and will be repurchasing in the future to keep in my travel kit and will even keep some in my work bag as well. I highly recommend these cleanser infused pads to everyone who wants to gently remove makeup and/or do a first cleanse in the morning or evening.

Reviews
Super convenient product for lazy people such as myself! To start off, the pads come in a small, very light bag that reseals and leaves everything fresh for next use which is nice, and it is very full. The pads are small, very soft and thin, and just need water to activate. There is next to no mess using these. I have quite oily combination skin and the cleanser worked well and felt very refreshing for me, and did not leave any redness. Little to no scent that I could notice which is also a bonus. The pads work great for makeup removal, however you may need more than one for a full face. I thoroughly enjoy this product that makes cleansing easy and does not dry my skin out. If you are a busy person looking for a quick addition to your skincare, this is for you!
Tips: One pad for just washing your face, multiple for makeup!
Good for travelling because you don't need to bring a separate bottle of micellar water. I found they they were stuck together when i opened the pack but it was a good first step at taking stubborn makeup off before i cleansed my skin. Will keep on to these when I go on work trips.
I thought the timing of this was quite divine; I was about to go on a work trip when I had received these to review. Work trip = having to wear makeup, which is always a pain given the aftercare involved. It comes in a pack that dispenses the wipes, but as you pull one out, the rest follow as if they are tissues - so be warned when you go to pull the first one out!
I initially used these on my bare skin as I wanted to see how they dried down, and to be honest, it doesn't really dry down. I found myself having to pat my face dry so I could apply moisturiser. My other initial thought was that the smell is overwhelming, reminding me of a mix of talcum powder and stale, faded old lady perfume clinging to hair.
I then tried to use it to remove mascara and the pads kind of broke/fell apart as I swiped across my lashes.
Also, after many years of using reusable cotton pads to remove makeup and swipe micellar water on my face, I found it really wasteful to be using these again particularly because of the plastic packaging.
It was also so hard to get the ratio right in terms of how much water to put on the pads, too soaked, and they fell apart, not enough water, then you're just rubbing a smelly cotton pad on your face.
Overall, I do not recommend this product. It's wasteful and doesn't actually work.
