I wanted to love these pads because the price is great but they are tiny and so thin and flimsy that they're difficult to use. Neither side of the pads are textured so you can really only use the pads to apply product but cannot use them to 'clean' your skin. To their credit, they are extremely soaked in product which I always appreciate.
