After using about half of a tub of Stridex pads, I do believe in their effectiveness. They're also cheap (less than $5 for a tub of 50) and easy to find, so I highly recommend for people on a...

I have used these every night for about six months... I remove my make up using an oil massage to loosen the makeup and then a gentle soap to wash it off, then tone my face with 1-2 of these...

Seemed to make me break out less, and when I did get acne they quickly surfaced and easy to pop. I started using this every morning and every night but my skin started to flake.. right now I'm not...

Glad I tried these, they're nice. I was afraid they would leave my face sticky or tacky but nope, they don't. The pads are a little bit on the super-wet side so I gently squeeze each one out into...

This is another wonderful product I would have never even looked at if it wasn't for MUA. I bought these for $2.45 at my local dollar store. They were 3.00 but had a .55 cent coupon. These have...

I appreciate that these pads are alcohol-free. My face felt nice and clean after using, without getting that greasy rebound that happens after using an alcohol-containing product. However, it...

HG. I've been using these pads for at least the last 6/7 years. I don't use them daily anymore, but whenever my skin is misbehaving I reach for this. For me it works best when I use it at night...

I've used this acne treatment on & off for years. I've found it to actually be irritating to the skin unless just used as a spot treatment in a tiny amount. It actually caused my pores to clog,...

I love these pads, but I don't use them on my face. I use them on my feet and they really help my dry, cracked skin there. They keep my legs soft and help get rid of ingrown hairs; they also got...

I dunno, these really did a number on my skin. They dried me out terribly. I aged at least 5 years once I started using these. Now, being fair, I couldn't use them long enough to gauge their...
