Cleansing wipes earned themselves a pretty bad rap for a few reasons. Most of them do not deliver a sufficient cleanse. Many are simply non environmentally friendly. Some fall apart during use or feel abrasive on the skin leaving the face red and irritated. And then there are Koh Gen Do Spa Water Cleansing Cloths, which are none of the above. As someone who is on his 20th pack or so, allow me to shed some light on why these reign supreme as my #1 travel staple that is completely splurge worthy.
Also, may I mention that while I’ve been writing the blog for over 10 years and receive countless PR mailers daily, I was never once gifted by Koh Gen Do. I’m not saying this to shade anyone but please understand that my enthusiasm is entirely backed by personal out of pocket purchases. Every. Single. Time.
About cleansing wipes…
Nobody should be using cleansing wipes daily. They do not and will not replace a proper cleanser in your everyday skincare routine. Cleansing wipes (face wipes, facial towelettes, cleansing cloths, etc.) are acceptable during certain skinmergenecies. Like travel. As in you’re in transit and the only portable solution needs to be disposable and fit in your pocket. Luckily, nothing rivals the performance of Koh Gen Do.
What makes Koh Gen Do cloths so special?
Let me count the ways. No, seriously, the only way this will make sense is if I list my arguments as bullet points. Let’s go.
- Saturated to perfection but without being drippy, each cloth feels like a luxurious cleanse in a single sheet.
- One cloth does the job effectively.
- These actually remove all my tinted sunscreen, grime, dirt, and excess oil in a single step.
- The cloths are free from alcohol, and synthetic fragrances, reducing the risk of irritation and allergic reactions.
- Totally safe to use around the eyes.
- Whether you’re traveling, heading to the gym, or need a quick cleanse during a busy day, Koh Gen Do Spa Water Cloths offer unparalleled convenience.
- Ultra faint and barely noticeable aroma that leans clean/herbal.
- These feel hydrating/soothing and never feel the skin tight/dry.
- They stay fresh in their pouches (even once you start using them) for an absurdly long time.
- Each cloth is fully biodegradable.
- Make for the most perfect gift for the skincare-obsessed friend who is always on-the-go.
What’s in the Koh Gen Do Spa Water cloths?
Koh Gen Do Spa Water Cloths are infused with the brand’s signature mineral-rich spa water, sourced from the thermal hot springs in Japan. This water is renowned for its rejuvenating properties, packed with natural minerals that promote skin health. Additionally, each cloth is enriched with Japanese Mugwort and Ginger Root Extracts as well as Birch Sap, and a touch of Lactic Acid. This powerhouse blend helps to soothe and nourish the skin, providing an exceptional cleansing experience.
