QV Face Cleansing Wipes Reviews

Being a fan of QV products and having spotted the QV wipes on sale I eagerly bought a packet expecting to be pleased. Unfortunately I was not! Sold in a plastic resealable rectangular packet of 25 wipes that equates to just under 30¢ per wipe at RRP it is one of the cheaper wipes offered.
The wipe itself did not smell of anything at all, was a decent size and did not dry out when properly sealed.
While my face appeared cleaner after using quite a few wipes, it did sting the slightest bit. Although it’s supposed to be gentle I didn’t see any benefits as such and didn’t notice any difference between this and other brands. Considering the premise of suitability for sensitive skin in QV products I don’t believe these wipes are worthy.
I did use these wipes over a month and experienced a slight stinging, I thought it may just be my skin and ignored it as it wasn’t very painful. However I still don't think the QV wipes are particularly effective or useful. Their facial cleanser is much better and if you need an easy method to clean your face, remove makeup or travel suitable product in the form of a wipe, look elsewhere. I was expecting much more from a QV product.

Probably not the most natural of face wipes, but my face was suffering from sensitive issues recently and these wipes were awesome for removing make up, super cheap and easy to use. I used this in conjunction with the QV face cleanser - I would apply the cleanser to my skin and then use the face wipes to remove it. It worked really well and helped to remove all my make up, including eye make up.

When my irritation was really bad I did find this product stung a little bit. It would usually pass fairly quickly, but if it didn't I just washed my face with some warm water. In saying that, I did find it to soothe irritation and redness and leave my skin feeling relaxed and clean. They are really hydrating too, so you won't be left with the dry, tight feeling you sometimes get with cleansers.

I am familiar with QV products as my son has eczema so when I needed a new face wipe I just grabbed these thinking they'd be fine. Well I was wrong! These smell awful, don't really clean that well and burn my face, especially my eyes. I don't really have super sensitive skin so I was surprised they made me feel like this. I have put this packet in the car for emergency kiddy clean ups because i can't put them near my face again! RESPONSE FROM QV: Dear Amanda,
