I recently tried Nivea’s 3 in 1 Sensitive Cleansing Wipes to remove my make up and I think I’ll stick to my usual skin routine.
Gone are the days where I used makeup wipes to take off my makeup. I was never satisfied with how my skin felt after using them.
I felt I still had half of my foundation smeared on my face. Because of this I said goodbye to make up wipes and began a more structured routine that suits my skin's needs.

After reading mainly positive reviews online about the make up wipes, I was keen to give them a go and see how well they took my makeup off.
The full product description read: “NIVEA 3 in 1 Biodegradable Cleansing Wipes for Sensitive Skin – Caring yet effective plant-based cleansing wipes. NIVEA Biodegradable Cleansing Wipes are the ideal cleansing wipes for sensitive skin, enriched with soothing Dexpanthenol to effectively remove even waterproof make-up and mascara, leaving the skin thoroughly cleansed and refreshed.
“Soft biodegradable plant-based fibre wipes, made of naturally-derived ingredients with 0% alcohol. The formula is fragrance free to gently and thoroughly cleanse the face, especially designed for sensitive skin.” The wipes are rated 4.1 out of 5 on the Nivea website.
The wipes:
The wipes state on the outer packaging that they are ‘fragrance free’ which I was happy about as some make up wipes can smell too overpowering. I think we can all agree that sometimes when products state ‘fragrance free’ on the packaging, they actually turn out to be fragranced, but I can confirm the wipes didn’t have a hint of fragrance.
I can’t comment on them taking off waterproof mascara like the product description states as I have semi-permanent eyelashes but I would love to know if they did or not.
I had a shower and decided to test the makeup wipes to make sure my skin was clear when I was out. . The face wipes did remove unwanted fake tan that I thought had been washed off in the shower, ew.
When testing the wipes with a full face of makeup on, I had to use a lot of wipes until I felt the majority of my makeup had been removed. This means, if I was to use these wipes every day, I would finish the pack in no time.
I must add, my skin did feel extremely smooth after using them though, but I will be sticking to my usual routine of cleansing.
