Review: Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes

Press Sample 

Over the years, I've sort of stuck to my favorite facial towelettes and really haven't explored too much when it comes to other brands (three or four years ago I think I was on a kick and reviewed several different brands, if you've been with me for a while and remember that!).

But over the last year or so, I have heard from several of you here on the blog and on social media who have been raving about these Simple wipes. So when I had the opportunity to receive some for review a while back, I jumped on it. I've been using these wipes for over four months now, and today I'd like to give you my verdict!

The Simple Multi-Benefit Cleansing Oil Has (Finally!) Landed

It's here! It's here! Remember way back in January of 2014 when I posted a sneak peek at the new Simple cleansing oil? Well the release date got pushed from January 2014 to May 2014, but then May 2014 came and went and...nothing. I don't know why it took another year for this one to hit stores, but who cares because it's finally here!

Review: Simple Cleansing Micellar Water

Purchased by Me 

As promised, I mentioned when I first posted about the new Simple Micellar Water back in the beginning of January that I would review it for you ASAP, and here we are! I found this at my local Target right after I posted about it, and I've been using it regularly for a little over four weeks now. So let's see how it's been working for me, shall we?

NOTE: If you're unfamiliar with micellar waters and not sure what they're all about, please refer to my previous post here for an explanation and some background history. Thanks!

Spotted: NEW Simple Skincare Micellar Water

Well this is very exciting news. The new Simple Micellar Water has landed! I believe this is the very first Micellar water to hit the US at the mass-market level (La Roche-Posay has a micellar water that you can get at Ulta but it retails for around $20, and I wouldn't really consider that mass-market). L'Oreal and Garnier have micellar waters available in the UK and Canada, but I don't know of any mass-market/drugstore micellar waters in the US. Well, until NOW, that is!

Before I get into this sighting, I should back up in case you're new to micellar waters. For a quick definition, check out this article. According to Marie Claire UK, micellar waters originated in France in the 1990s and they were created to help Parisian women gently cleanse their faces (according to that Marie Claire UK article, Paris has "notoriously harsh water"). According to Best Health, micellar waters are "non-rinse, soap-free cleansing waters that contain micelle molecules" and they are generally applied with a cotton pad to cleanse the face and remove makeup.

Now that you're up to speed on micellar waters, let's take a look at this brand new one from Simple, shall we?
