Around October/November of last year, 2009, I bought three makeup wipes from Epielle (click here to see the other things I bought or received at the Korean Festival). It's not a popular brand but you will see this often in a lot of stores or at least I have... hehe~ I think I will review these since I'm on my third wipes. :)

Information on the back: Before I start, I don't have the package for the Green Tea one. I threw that one away but I believe it's the same one as the Aloe Vera.
Make-up Remover Cleansing Tissues have special dirt-trapping fibers that gently cleanse away dirt, oil, make-up, and even the toughest waterproof mascara. With the convenience of pre-moistened cloths, they work in seconds to leave you feeling smooth, fresh and completely clean-anytime, anywhere!
The cucumber one had different information.
Epielle Cucumber Cleansing Tissues have special dirt-trapping fibers that gently cleanse away dirt, oil make-up and even the toughest waterproof mascara. With the addition of Cucumber extract, the convenient pre-moistened tissues not only provide exceptional cleaning, but also leave your skin feeling smooth and refreshed. Freshen up without water-anytime, anywhere!
All of them have...
* Hypoallergenic
* Won't clog pores & moisturizes skin
* Safe for contact lens wearers
* Oil Free
* Refreshing
Direction on the back: Gently wipe face, using both side of cloth to deep clean and refresh, leaving no residue. Best if used within 45 days, after opening. Keep package tightly close, and store in a cool, dry place when not in use. After use, dispose of cloth in a trash receptacle. (do not flush)
Ingredients: There's a slight difference between the Green Tea/Aloe Vera and Cucumber. I will post both. This one is Green Tea/Aloe Vera.
This is for Cucumber.
My thoughts: When I first used the Green Tea, I liked it but towards the end of using the wipes I wasn't happy. For some odd reason, towards the end the wipes were dried. It was tough on my skin and it tugged. That doesn't help my wrinkle faced... lol~ :P I was kind of skeptical when it came to using the other two I have left, Aloe Vera and Cucumber. I was wrong!... lol~ The Aloe Vera one didn't dried out towards the end. Either I didn't close the Green Tea one well or I just had a bad bunch. I would like to think it's the second... lol~ :X I also noticed the wipes of the Cucumber one is different from the other two. I'm not too sure why but the Cucumber is more softer. It's also more flexible. In all, I think they're good wipes. They remove the makeup well! :)
Pros:
* Cheap.
* Cheap.
* Made from Korea (being biased here... lol~).
* Removes the makeup well.
* Easy to carry around.
* Cucumber has softer wipes.
* Cucumber one smells like cucumber.
Cons:
* Green Tea dried out towards the end.
* Some have strong scent.
Would I buy this again? Yes.

I'm going to end with couple of nail polishes I got in the past few months.
This is Nicole by OPI in Fresh Squeezed! I've been into peachy/coral colors... hehe~ I think the color is hot and do I need more in this color. Nope!... lol~ :X I got this free through the Seventeen magazine. They had a special towards the end of May for a free Nicole by OPI nail polish at Ulta. I believe it's over. Sorry my bad I should have posted this earlier!!!
I received two Etude House nail polishes from a friend.
This one is in #PK006. It's a metallic, pastel pink color.
This one is in #PK008. It's a light pink with glitters.
Thank you friend for these!!! :)
