Tesco Cucumber Facial Wipes

RRP: £1 for 25 wipes

--What does the promo say?--
"Tesco cleansing wipes facial have been enriched with soothing cucumber and aloe vera. They have been specially formulated to gently ease away make-up (including water-proof make-up), cleanse, tone and moisturise, without upsetting the skin’s delicate balance."

--Packaging--
The white and green colour scheme is clean and unisex, with the circles evoking the cucumber inclusion perfectly.

--Usage--
Sweep over face to either remove makeup or freshen up on the go. Alternatively, they could replace your usual cleanser - particularly useful if travelling on hand baggage only this summer and not wanting to encumber your suitcase with liquids.

--Appearance--
The wipes are white and leave no visible residue on the skin.

--Scent--
The cucumber aspect is definitely there without being overpowering.

--Texture and consistency--
The wipes are sufficiently abrasive to remove makeup or excess oil without being abrasive. Equally, they are soft without being ineffectual.

--Effects on the skin--
Seems to cleanse well, getting rid of dirt accumulated throughout the day. However, for makeup you might need 2 wipes depending on how thick your foundation is, if you use primers or not, and so on. For me, 1 wipe was not always enough.

--Value for money--
While not perfect, at £1 per pack these are excellent value, refresh the face, and are perfect for travel.
