Most Helpful Positive Review Refreshing! I have come to enjoy the Skyn Iceland products and these wipes are no exception! I generally take off my waterproof eye makeup before I use these wipes (or any other wipes). These Glacial Cleasing Wipes need to be rubbed together to activate the foam and then you can wipe your face clean with a nice fresh, yet light scent. There is also a slight cooling sensastion that is left over once you've finished. I highly suggest storing any wipes upside-down, this trick keeps all wipes from drying out.
Most Helpful Critical Review Please go back to the old formula and cloth design I am in 100% agreement with the other reviewer about the product change being a huge disappointment. These cloths used to lather great and you I could get the product in my waterline with no irritation at all. They also felt - to me at least - as though one side was slightly softer while the other side was a teeny bit more exfoliating, which was really helpful. Now the texture is slimy and feels like baby wipes and leaves a residue behind like baby wipes, without lathering at all. Even the scent is different. I can't buy these anymore even though I've been using them for well over a decade. The only good thing about the product change is the original cloths used to be so good at their job that the adhesive would cease to work on the packaging and I would need to store the pack in a ziplock to keep them from drying out. Please let those of us who have been loyal customers and used to love this and many other products that have been changed when they are changing, how they are changing, and if/when it might be a temporary batch issue or a permanent thing.

Brianna from Mobile, AL
I used to get these in bulk back in 2015-ish and they basically saved my skin during a lengthy depressive episode. At some point I ran out and I completely forgot they existed, just occasionally wondering "which wipe was it that I used? It was amazing". I just happened to be in Ulta a week ago and saw these and it all rushed back.
I was actually really worried because my skin has gotten insanely sensitive since then and I've had the Skyn facewash burn my face in the last year, but they didn't. Just a nice frothiness and one wipe cleaned my face, neck, and decolletage.
To be clear, I don't know if they remove a ton of makeup. I remove mine with an oil cleanser and use a face soap afterwards, so these are for the mornings or just to make sure there's none left behind.
They seem like they could be kinda drying, but if you're using skincare it's not very noticeable. They may burn sensitive skin due to the ingredients, but they haven't irritated my face and it burns if the wind blows too hard. Everyone's skin is different.
My favorite! 5
Nancy from Phila Pa
I use this product every night to remove my makeup and/or clean of my face to prepare for my daily Skyniceland products. It leaves my face feeling super clean.
Not for sensitive skin 1
Redhead girl from Napa,ca
Do not use. I was told by the Ulta girl that these are the best for people with sensitive skin. Wrong. Burned my face and for the past week i have been dealing with peeling raw skin. Run from this product
Sensitive skin made happy 5
Scary Sarah from Reno, nv
I use these after a long day at work (summer heat kills) they are refreshing, cooling and gentle enough that if it's a long day my skin doesn't suffer if I use more than one a day— real sensitive skin, I usually can't get away with things like that. Love them
LOVE! 5
Maria from Texas
Rarely leave reviews but I got these in a whim & I'll never go back to the Neutrogena wipes I normally get! These lather & actually clean to the point that toner afterwards comes up clean, it's pretty impressive. They didn't dry out my face nor leave any residue or any kind of product, my face, back & chest were clean enough to put on my nighttime product without the hassle of actually washing my face. My new go-to!!

Bu Al from alabama
I use these every day when I get home and they are great for getting most make up off and then I wash my face at the end of the night. These leave a really clean feeling
Skyn 5
Lyss from Bergen county, NJ
Great product for a quick clean face feeling when you're in a rush. I wouldn't use this for make up remover. But more as a clean face with out having to wash your face. Really removes dirt and stuff.
Not liking the product change 1
Catherine from PA
I used to buy these all of the time. Unfortunately I will not be buying the new version of these. There is a huge difference. Switch back to the old formula and I will buy again.
2nd fave 5
MommyMeCO from Colorado
If you can't afford Koh Gen Do, these are the best alternative. Not as plush, but they do a GREAT job. They don't bother my sensitive skin or interact with my actives. Love these!
I will this product again. 5
TC from FREDERICK MD
Try it you'll like it. I did.

Product Change Resulted in Poorer Quality 1
TheProfW from Birmingham, AL
I used to buy Skyn Iceland's Glacial Cleansing Cloths all the time. Despite the price, I found the cloths to be soft, easy to use, and took my makeup off in a single swipe. Now, the wipes have been changed. It feels like I'll pulling out a WetNap and scrubbing my face with it. It pulls on the skin too much and is very drying. The new formula is also smaller in size and very poor quality. It also has a different scent which isn't pleasant. Unfortunately, Skyn Iceland just lost a longtime customer. Go back to the original formula and you might get me back...
Why the product change? 0/10. 1
Lindsay from Toronto
Let's just start off by saying I don't usually write any reviews.
Like most people, I have my go-to faves/would never replace/always stocking up/continuously recommending products. My CORE, NEVER FAIL products.
These wipes used to be on that list.
This was until for some illogical reason, Skyn decided to completely overhaul what was the best cleansing cloths in the market.
The new cloths are COMPLETELY different. Paper thin like the cheap removing wipes you'd find at the drugstore which you'd only buy because you.are.desperate. Instead of using one cloth to take my face off, I now need two.
The formula is also different. The residue feels like your face isn't clean once done and a double-wash is a MUST need before bed.
Huge mistake whomever was in-charge of product development here. Do you even know your consumers?
I'll be returning the 3 containers of this new & NOT improved product and will need to find another reliable, fool-proof cleansing cloths product.
favorite 5
beautyjunkie from Vestal NY
Was so sad when local store stopped carrying. Bought them all on Friday because they had 3.
Must have for travel 5
Marta from Los Angeles
Love love love these ! Perfect for when you've had a long busy day and don't have the energy to wash your face. Also, amazing for travel. Always make sure I have these. Please never discontinue them !
my go to wipes 5
lorena from la habra
I love these and use them all the time! I definitely recommend these wipes.
Great wipes. Meh packaging. 4
Leah from Boston
These wipes are great. They do exactly what they say. They are a face wash without added water. They lightly exfoliate skin due to the texture of the cloth which is great. They make my skin feel like it has been washed as opposed to make up remover wipes that just feel like the makeup is gone. 4 stars only because the packaging leaves something to be desired. I'm not even half way through my pack and I had to put it in a sealed ziplock bag because it doesn't stay closed anymore.
mehhh 2
julie from chicago,il
I know this brand is really popular so when this was on sale, I grabbed one. But holy smokes, it burns! my face is kinda sensitive and it didn't not remove makeup that well either. But maybe I was just distracted by how much it stung. I didn't like the smell either. Not a fan. The eye patches are pretty good though.
My absolute favorite cleansing cloth! 5
J FO from Danville, VA
I am usually a budget buyer, but this brand is worth every penny! I received this as a sample in my birchbox subscription and I have been hooked ever since. I throw a pack of these in every order I place.
Exquisite product that you need in your Life! 5
Smartaschic from Maryland
As a busy healthcare executive I have finally found the best cleansing wipes. These are truly sensational. The self lathering element raises the caliber of the cleansing experience and the quality is superior to anything on the market. Plus your face feels super fresh and healthy. Please know I have never written a comment about anything and I am amazed at this line and want to explore more of their products. These are everything!
Perfect for travel 5
Yoga girl from Sacramento, CA
I've been using these for years and will continue to. Happy the formula hasn't changed (If it ain't broke, don't fix it.). Nourishes your skin while gently removing makeup. These are perfect for travel.
These are a lifesaver 5
Jenny from Atlanta, GA
My new go to facial cleansing wipes. They actually 'suds' up- removes all cosmetics from you face, leaving your skin clean and fresh. Also, great for travel. I love the fresh scent! Leaves my face feeling clean and smooth.
Buy 2-3 packs at a time 5
Duchesse from Jersey
I've used lots of different wipes and cloths over the years. I like these best. They do exactly as they claim. Great for travel. Great for makeup removal.
Camping Must-Have! 5
Batgirl129 from Hudson Valley, NY
They are expensive for wipes but they foam up and that is very appreciated during two days of camping without a shower. So worth the extra money. I got a sample pack in a makeup bag subscription a couple years ago and got hooked on them.
Feels so fresh and clean 5
