Taking off makeup with Pond’s cold cream is a distant memory at this point in time, but not all makeup remover wipes were created equal — some brands just have the edge.
Neutrogena has had the cleansing facial wipes category in a chokehold for decades, but its Hydro Boost With Hyaluronic Acid Ultra-Soft Cleansing Towelettes have become the ultimate fan-favorite — and right now they’re 30% off at Amazon.
You can shop this top-rated 2-pack (coming with 50 wipes total!) for just $12 and get free overnight shipping on top of the sweet $5 discount, provided you’re an Amazon Prime member.


As the days grow longer and the sun shines brighter, our skin faces a whole new set of challenges. Spring and summer bring warmth, adventure and outdoor fun, but also sweat, sunscreen buildup, allergens and environmental grime.
That’s why facial cleansing wipes become more than just a convenience during these seasons — they’re a self-care essential. And when it comes to combining hydration with effective cleansing, Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Ultra-Soft Cleansing Towelettes with Hyaluronic Acid seem to be a standout choice.
According to Neutrogena, these wipes gently but thoroughly remove up to 99% of makeup, oil, dirt, and even waterproof mascara, all without the need to rinse afterward.
They’re even more impactful because they’re infused with hyaluronic acid, a powerhouse ingredient naturally found in the skin that helps it retain moisture.
Neutrogena says this addition helps boost hydration for up to 24 hours, leaving your skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed, not tight or stripped. That’s a big deal, especially in warmer months when frequent cleansing can easily lead to dryness or irritation.
The towelettes themselves are made from 100% plant-based cloth, which makes them ultra-soft and gentle enough for daily use, even around the delicate eye area. They’re also hypoallergenic and free from alcohol, parabens, sulfates, phthalates, soaps, and dyes, so they’re a pretty safe choice for sensitive skin.
And because they don’t leave behind a greasy or sticky residue (you can cross-reference all the customer reviews that say so), you can use them anytime, anywhere.
Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost facial wipes reviews
If you need any encouragement, just take it from a fellow baby-wipes-or-bust cleansing wipe convert. “I have been STRUGGLING to find one wipe that can remove all my makeup. The ones that removed my foundation left a sticky residue,” the anonymous customer says.
“The only thing that could touch my eyeliner without irritating my eyes were baby wipes. But y’all these are AMAZING! I used one wipe and cleaned my whole face, eye makeup and all! My skin is soft and not sticky. They smell so good and they really hydrate!”
