A Must Have
-05.21.13
I received a sample of these and they are great! I was using the Bare Minerals Luminous Brightening Pads, which had left my skin a little dry and red afterwards. The BE pads have alcohol in them so I wanted to try these because they are alcohol and paraben free.
All i can say is they are wonderful. I use at night after cleansing with my clairosonic and BE Purifying Facial wash. I swipe these on and my skin does not feel irritated afterwards. It leaves my skin glowing and soft, I can definitely see a difference after two uses! Also, these have not caused any breakouts unlike the BE pads I was using.
After use, I follow up with my Josie Maran Argan Oil and my skin looks vibrant and younger. I highly recommend these. They are cheaper and work better than the other pads on the market. I will definitely be buying the full size.

Nice pads for everyday use
-05.20.13
Quick Take: refreshing
These facial pads are great, especially for someone with sensitive skin. I suffer from the occasional breakouts, my skin in super oily in some areas, but also dry and sensitive in others. I never thought I could find a pad to address all of these issues, but these work great. Smell is pretty neutral, not too bad. Doesn't dry out skin, but make sure to follow up with a moisturizer or serum just in case. Good price for the amount of pads you get.

Truly are good for sensitive skin
-05.20.13
These didn't irritate my sensitive skin and didn't leave behind a sticky feeling that I often find with other facial wipes. Most skin cleansing/makeup removing wipes - even those marked "for sensitive skin" - leave me red, itchy, and with that tight-faced feeling. Not these, although they do smell a little odd. It's not a huge drawback.
These are just my initial impressions from using the wipes a few times. I'll have to wait and see if I witness a big difference in my skin over time.

good but smelly
-05.19.13
I love the effects this had on my skin, and love that this toner comes in pads rather than a bottle. I'd give 5 stars but I find the smell to be really unpleasant. Luckily the odor it does not last long.

Very Impressed
-05.19.13
Quick Take: effective yet non irritating
I just tried a sample of these and I have to say, they are wonderful! I was currently using Bare Minerals luminous pads and they left my skin sticky and sort of dry. My skin always felt slightly irritated from them but I thought that was normal because of the acids in them. However, The FAB pads leave my skin exfoliated without the dryness or irritation, SCORE! These pads contain no drying alcohol which can wreak havoc on the skin. I am highly impressed by these as they leave my skin smooth and exfoliated. I will definitely buy the full size the next time I go to Sephora. And the fact that they are cheaper and work better than most pads on the market is unbelievable

I was skeptical of these but I really like them. So much more gentle than noxzema pads or the like, and they don't dry out my skin or burn, but they exfoliate nicely. I use them once daily in the early evening since I think they make you a little more sun-sensitive. Like others had said, I cut them in half and they're just enough, and they work out to be less overwhelmingly expensive that way. I will buy them again.

Surprised
-05.12.13
Well, I must say, I do enjoy these. I was a bit confused at first. I thought it would be more of a scrub pad, but it's much more gentler than that, well, unless youre really just giving your skin a go.
I'm still not sure whether I should wash off or just leave on, since I prefer to use these at night and then put on my night creams.
Since these were samples, i'm considering getting the gift set.

Horrible packaging
-05.10.13
First of all, I absolutely love this product. I usually have pretty clear skin, with a few blackheads on my nose. These little guys do wonders for tightening pores and clearing everything up. I had a few breakouts on my chest too that these took care of no problem. Only downfall is that the packaging is too large; it could probably be 25% smaller. Just takes up too much room in my makeup bag.

How did I function without these!
-05.09.13
Quick Take: a daily renewal for my skin
The pads are exactly as advertised - a daily renewal - my skin is as soft as it would be after a chemical peel - there is a brightness to my skin even without makeup and the frosting on the cake is the disappearance of those nasty blackheads that have plagued my nose since I was in my teens. The product accomplishes what would take bimonthly visits to an aesthetician for the same results. My original introduction to the product was a sample so make sure you are taking advantage to those wonderful samples available with each order.

Love - Gentle but Effective
-05.09.13
I really like these - they are nothing like those pads you used in middle school, that are laced with so much alcohol, you could choke - instead, they are gentle, with a subtle scent of sugar (I think) - I can't speak to the Radiance yet, as I've only been using them for a week, but I really like them so far!

After reading the reviews for this and reading about it in a magazine, I was SO excited to try it. The first day I used it, my skin hurt really bad, and intense burning to where I had to wash it off. I tried it again though and ended up breaking out and had a few red spots on my face.
I'm not sure what caused it, I don't have super-sensitive skin and can usually use anything on my face, so I was really disappointed I had to take this back.

OBSESSED
-05.07.13
I LOVE this product! I was very on the fence about trying it, but I am so glad I did! I noticed an improvement in my skin's tone and texture within two weeks! I use it every night before applying either FABs Ultra Repair moisturizer, or FABs Dual Repair moisturizer. Yes, it does leave a slight tight feeling, but I feel like that's how I know it's working. That's also why I use it at night when I use my heavier moisturizer. I am completely satisfied with this product, and the whole line of FAB products!

refreshing
-05.07.13
I love these. They're not like those strong Stridex pads you used to use that dried out your face and stung your eyes. I couldn't imagine my skincare routine without these. I took the advice from other reviews and cut them in half because half of one has more than enough to put on your face. The only reason I didn't give it 4 stars was because it does leave kind of a sticky film but it's not really an issue considering it has done wonders for my face.

I love these pads. I feel like they give me a mini-facial each morning. My skin feels soft and clean and looks bright and fresh. These pads are not drying.
