Thoughts: When I first received this product, I was curious but at the same time not too excited. I'm not a huge fan of coconut especially the smell.

Here's a closer look at the opening of the wipes. Since this is a sample product, it only came with 10 counts not the original 30. I also noticed the color on the packaging is different versus the original.

Here's a closer look at the cleansing wipes.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the scent is strong. Every time you open the package, you can smell it a foot away. While wiping the face, the smell diminishes and you don't notice anymore. With that said, it smells like coconut. I am not a fan of coconut in any way. I don't like the smell and I definitely don't like the taste. If you are, you will like this. Plus coconut is supposed to be good for the skin. It's hydrating. Secondly, the cleansing wipes is half the size of the normal wipes. It might be good for small faces but someone like mine, it wasn't big enough. I had to use two wipes for each time I use to remove makeup. Plus, it's not that moist. I wouldn't say it's dry but it's definitely not wet. It's possible it's slightly dry because I haven't used this product since I got it in May 2015. Lastly, it did remove my makeup and I felt clean afterwards. When it comes to removing waterproof makeup, I cannot say. I didn't use any waterproof products but from what I have noticed, it'll take some effort.

Pros:
* Removes makeup.
* Feel clean afterwards.
* Vegan.
* Cruelty-free.

Cons:
* Strong scent.
* Smells like coconut.
* Half the size of the most makeup wipes.
* Not completely moist.

Would repurchase: No.
