In the past I have not been a fan of makeup remover wipes. I have tried everything from Stila to MAC. I have found that they are harsh and can dry out quickly.
I tested the Boots version this past week. The wipes are hypo-allergenic with added benefits of B5 extracts, witch hazel and fennel. It took off my La Mer foundation in just a few swipes and did not burn or aggravate my skin.
It felt refreshing and cool. I know that is a description that is thrown around a lot on blogs but it really felt wonderful. There was some tightening action but my skin did not turn into a mask. It did not dry out my skin either. It felt soft and slightly moisturized.
Another plus in favor of this product is the scent. There is none. It does not smell like medicine nor does it smell like a field of flowers.
There are 30 wipes in a pack and it is available at your local Target for $6.99

I found these about a month ago and love them. I don't feel like I have a nasty residue on my skin after using them and they take care of all my make-up in one clean swip. I'm so glad someone else is talking about them!
I swear by this.
Is there anything from Boots No. 7 that's not fabulous? I haven't had much time to run my own errands, so on Saturday, while running an errand with a friend for our club's banquet, I suggested casually that we should go to Target. We got there, and I could not tear myself away from the Boots wall!!!!!
We were however short on time, so I only picked up their Rebalancing Day Gel for normal/oily skin and the Total Renewal Micro-Dermabrasion Exfoliator. I really can't believe how fantastic the products are, and how low the prices are too!! I'm going to get the Rebalancing Night Fluid once I'm out of my current Shiseido night moisturizer (that costed me 3 times more than the Boots version!).
BTW, I just checked Target.com, and a lot of the Boots items are on sale!
ohhh i heard those are great!
Annie- I love these too! They're perfect after a late night when I'm too lazy to go through my usual nighttime ritual.
Even if I don't moisturize afterward, my skin is not tight at all. Last time I went to Target I bought 4 packs of them :)
I love wipes, they are becoming so popular lately.
i like these, too. i have sensitive eyes and a lot of wipes are too full of suds, and make my eyes burn. i thought these were a nice mix--not too sudsy but also had enough moisture in them. took my makeup off awesomely, i like the witch hazel, you can kind of feel it. i also like the pond's wipes, but less so since they made them textured. i liked them flat. i can't use most liquid makeup removers so these are like a godsend to me.
These are so great! I have gone through three packs already. They take off all my eye makeup and face makeup (I use one side for eye makeup and then flip the wipe and take off the rest). Also, my skin looks great (I swear I hardly ever get a pimple since I started using them). Highly recommended!!!
