Last month, I made my way through three different brands of facial cleansing cloths: Pond's Clean Sweep Cleansing Towelettes, Olay Daily Facials, and Garnier Nutri-pure Wet Cleansing Towelettes. This week, I have regressed to my high school days and have turned to Clearasil's Daily Cleanse Acne-fighting Cleansing Wipes.

Normally, I don't use skincare products that are so blatantly "acne-fighting" (I am in my thirties, after all), but I thought I'd give the 2% salicylic acid formula a try since the seasonal transition from chilly spring to hot summer weather was making my skin react in horribly teenage-angst-ridden ways.

The wipes are much drier than the other three, which I didn't like as much, since it didn't feel like there was anything on them to clean off my makeup and dirt. The fact that they were also "smooth" as opposed to textured (the way a paper towel is textured) also felt like it was doing less work.

Overall, I didn't like the results of these. I had to use two wipes each time to fully get my makeup off, and they left a strange, filmy, oily residue on my face. As far as it working to fight acne -- well, let's just say I'm still relying fairly heavily on my concealer.
