My initial perception of the product was great - lovely packaging, enticing product description and reasonably priced.It smelled amazing when I opened it and the wipe itself is soft and thick.
Here's the downer: right after I started using the wipe on my face, my skin started stinging, and not just mildly, but it hurt to an extent of making my eyes water! This is really strange as I don't have particularly sensitive skin and I've used many variations of makeup wipes (some very cheap and nasty ones) but have never felt stinging skin! My skin also felt very tight after my face dried, if I didn't wash my face after.
The product claims to be gentle on the skin, safe for all skin types and moisturise the skin, but I can't say I personally experienced any of this. I also don't feel 100% safe to use the product on my skin due to the stinging. Such a pity!
