Yes To Grapefruit Facial Exfoliating Towelettes!

The Yes to range is pretty new to the UK but can now be found in most Boots stores. 

I believe the original line that Yes to brought out was Yes to carrots and now they have several lines including Yes to cucumbers, blueberries, tomatoes and grapefruit, each designed to benefit a different skin type. 

The Yes to grapefruit products claim to correct and repair uneven skin tone for a brighter more glowing complexion. These wipes are supposed to cleanse, exfoliate and leave the skin feeling soft and bright, they are also textured to add extra exfoliation. 

All of the Yes to products say that they are at least 90% natural! But what other pros and cons do these wipes have?...

As you can see from the picture above, one of the best features of these wipes is the plastic clasp seal which keeps the towelettes fresh and prevents them from drying out. The wipes also smell really nice and feel refreshing on the face. Although they claim to brighten the skin I have not seen a huge noticeable difference since using them, but I have only been using them for the past two weeks.

The picture below shows one of the exfoliating textured wipes, in my opinion they give a slight chemical exfoliating effect but if you want a deeper cleanse and exfoliation I would suggest a wash with physical exfoliating properties such as exfoliating beads...  

In addition to this, as this is a chemical exfoliator if you have sensitive skin I would not recommend this product! I tend to have sensitive skin particularly when I am in the sun or swimming in pools with a high concentration of chlorine. As a result, a rash developed on my face when I first tried these wipes on holiday. Whether the wipes reacted with my facial sun cream or whether it was due to my sensitive skin I do not know! 

But I would advise using these wipes with care as although 98% of the ingredients are natural some products can irritate particularly sensitive skin!

Another aspect of the wipes that slightly disappointed me was that although my skin does feel cleansed after using these, they do not always remove makeup effectively. I know they do not claim to remove makeup but generally I use face wipes to remove my makeup and cleanse my skin...

As face wipes go these aren't too expensive! In the US they retail for $5.99 and in the UK they are £3.99. There are 25 in a pack and the wipes them selves are large which is good as one is usually enough to cover the whole face!
