Advantages: Effective make-up removal, great quality wipes, good re-sealable function
Disadvantages: None to speak of
With all of the different make-up removal wipes available, with varying ones on price offers each time you need to stock up again I don't tend to remain loyal to a particular brand. However, I would certainly buy these again.
THE PRODUCT
Johnson's wipes come in the usual resealable packs of 25 wipes. The re-sealable function is good - some packaging often stops resealing after the first few times, and these need to be resealed over 20 times so the adhesive needs to be good to prevent them drying out and becoming unusable. Mine lasted to the end of the pack - much better than most which can often fail before halfway!
The wipes have a great thickness - the pack looks a lot chunkier than the others on the shelf and this is reflected in the fact that the individual wipes have a close weave and feel very strong. The wipes feel very fresh and there is no oilyness or scent. The main function of this product in my daily routine is to remove make-up, rather than simple cleansing, and these certainly do the job there. They don't require much pressure to remove eyeliner and mascara and there is no oily residue left on your face after usage. A great product.
THE PROMISE
The 'daily essentials' line on the packaging is certainly accurate, as these are a daily product for me. The blurb on this pack also makes a few other promises...
100% perfume free - this is very true of these wipes. They feel very natural and clean which is exactly what you want from a product like this.
The quality guarantee is warranted as, as mentioned above, these wipes have a great thickness and it only takes one to remove a whole face of make-up, without having to resort to trying to find a clean patch on the wipe.
Finally, the 'removes even waterproof mascara' line - this is another fair claim. I always use waterproof mascara and these wipes did the job well every day. It's not an effort to remove all of your make-up with one of these wipes, even the stubbornest black waterproof mascara - again, doing the job you need it to.
THE PRICE
Johnson's wipes are available in several other types (oil balancing, nourishing etc) but I prefer make-up removal products to be as plain and simple as possible so as to feel like they're really working. All of the variations tend to be the same price - around £3.15 in Boots. They're pretty much in the average price range for all brands - only the supermarket own brands tend to give much more competitive prices. However, right now these wipes are £1.51 on the Superdrug website, definitely worth snapping up!
There are so many different wipes available, but Johnson's certainly hold their own amongst the range - a product that does exactly what you need it to do. I would definitely use these again.
