I'm one of the laziest people when it come to anything. So when I see a product that could potentially save time, I'm all over it. I was introduced to the idea of nail polish remover wipes through the Josie Maran ones that I picked up through Sephora's Black Friday/ Boxing Day sales. (You can see the wipes here). I will be comparing these wipes to the Josie Maran ones throughout this review.
Overview
They worked mostly, but I would not repurchase.
Price:
$6 CAD for 20 wipes at Sephora. (I actually remember buying mine for around $10. It lists $6 on the website though).
Rating:
6 / 10
Would I Buy Again?
Nope!
Rambling Review
After trying the Josie Maran ones, I was pretty surprised with these. They are almost the exact opposite. The Josie Maran ones are drenched with oil (almost to the point of grossness) whereas these ones are drying. The very first time I used them I was surprised. After less than a minute after opening the package, the wipe was totally dry. It was quite a weird realization! I was completely unprepared so I had to open up another one. After I learned that they dry up like the desert in t-minus 60 seconds, I was able to use them a lot better. I am able to use 1 wipe for both of my hands. (But that is literally me furiously scrambling to remove the polish! It's like a race.)
What I can say about these wipes is that they work decently well. I do not have to tug or strain to take the polish off. I have not tried these with glitters though.
Even though these are cheaper, I would much rather use the Josie Maran nail polish remover wipes. They make my hands feel a lot nicer (after rinsing the excess oil off). Even if I'm feeling too cheap for the Josie Maran one's I guess I could go back to just putting nail polish remover on a cotton pad. ;)
Hope that was semi-helpful if you were looking into nail polish remover wipes! Have an awesome day!
