There was enough moisture in the wipes to clean my face which dried fast. However, they felt drier than some wipes I've used. They are made in the UK, so perhaps they had lost moisture in transit.
The cloths removed grease from my face and hands. They felt smooth afterwards. Unlike some wipes with strong alcohol in them they did not sting or leave the skin feeling cold because of fast evaporation.
They claim to have skin-loving ingredients. Most are typical cosmetic ingredients. Another claim is that oil and alcohol are absent.
Here is a list of ingredients in order:
Water
Cetearyl Isononanoate used as an emollient or moisturizer
Betaine permits water retention in cells originally came from sugar beets
Glycerin
Polysorbate 20 stabilizes the ingredients
Mangifera Indica Fruit (Mango) this is touted as a leading ingredient
Bisabolol an oil, anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial helps absorption
Ceteareth-20 used as an emulsifier
Phenoxyethanol oily liquid, kills bacteria and preserves
Cetearyl Alcohol mixture of fatty alcohols cleaner and stabilizer
Glyceryl Stearate emulsifier, thickener
Ceteareth-12 allows deeper skin penetration according to the Environmental Working Group SkinDeep database it is safe in low quantities, but is not safe on damaged skin if used in products for skin damage
1-Methylhydantain-1-Imide creatinine
Methylparaben some people don't like parabens as they are concerned that it might cause breast cancer, it is used as a preservative.
Disodium EDTA preserves and prevents cosmetics from going rancid
Sodium Citrate salt of citric acid helps preserve
Propylparaben another paraben
2-Bromo-1-Nitropropane-1, 3-Diol preservative
Benzoic Acid helps balance acid/alkali, i.e. PH and acts as a preservative
Citric Acid helps balance acid/alkali, i.e. PH
Zingber Officinale (Ginger) Extract
From the ingredient list the No Alcohol, No oil claim seems only half-true. There is no alcohol as used in popular parlance such as ethanol or isopropyl alcohol, yet there is fatty cetearyl alcohol. Also it seems there are some oily liquids, but maybe not as much oil as some other cosmetics.
The wipes have a mild, pleasant fragrance. Whereas, hot water and soap may remove dirt and some makeup faster with less wiping, these wipes are practical when a sink isn't readily available.

My skin has been very dry lately, but I often still feel the need to wash my face. These cloths leave my face feeling fresh without making it feel dry and tight. I also use these to soothe my skin after waxing. They feel nice and cool and there is no burning or irritation at all. I don't know how it cleans off makeup, as I do not wear any, but it did do a fantastic job of completely removing coconut oil from my face. I really like this product a lot. It also works on my dog's face to gently remove tear burn.I absolutely love these wipes! I received them free from BzzAgent to try them out. It took me three days to become a believer in using them. On day one, the wipe was extremely abrasive and I wasn't sure they were for me. On day two, I decided to give it another chance and still scratchy but not as much as day one. On day three...nothing! Well, something did happen. I fell head over heals! The wipe was no longer an irritation to my skin and left it feeling smooth, looking healthy, and most of all moisturized. I have sensitive skin and have to admit I was a bit discouraged the first two days of use but, if I had not stuck it out I wouldn't be as happy as I am with it now. I choose not to go a day without using this product.I recieved this product for free and found i really enjoyed using the radiance wipes.The wipe itself is a perfect size it is so soft and gentle and glides so smoothly across my face while removing any make-up or dirt.The wipe did not dry out my face and seems great for daily use.The scent of the wipe is very light so it did not irritate me, I think these wipes would be perfect for any skin type.
