Some of you may not know that Kleenex were originally made famous for their facial tissue in the 1920's, when they were marketed as the best way to remove cold cream cleanser and makeup remover, being strongly associated with actresses and celebrities and as the 'luxury' way to treat your skin.
Well now they're going back to their roots (albeit with a little more technology behind them!)
Kleenex are releasing a new line of facial care products including face wipes, eye makeup remover wipes, blotting sheets and facial tissues. The first three are pretty standard staples in today's market, it's the facial tissues I'm excited about.
Essentially they are dry face wipes, so why am I excited about them?
These soft, quilted cloths are made from natural fibres and are much larger than even the large sized cotton wool pads. They are not only soft, but also durable when wet or dry so you can use them for cleansing and toning, but also for removing nail varnish and facemasks (using just one tissue at a time rather than 5 cotton pads!)
My one gripe is the boring packaging design. I really think they could have made them more eye catching...
On the subject of packaging, check out some of the Kleenex boxes of the past!
1920's...
1930's...
These are a new staple in my bathroom... thank you Kleenex! Kleenex Facial Tissues are available now in Superdrug, £1.99 for 30 Tissues.

Oh, that's pretty interesting! I've been using Kleenex practically my whole life, and I never knew they were famous for their facial tissues!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great product! I tend to avoid using cotton wool pads at all costs because I really do think they are so wasteful! These seem like a great alternative. I'll definitely be popping into Superdrug tomorrow.. the packaging really is ridiculous, though, why use cardboard in a bathroom where it's bound to get wet and soggy from steam. Yuck! I'll be decanting these...

I love that you posted the retro boxes. The one from the 30s is fantastic - it would be amazing to see a revival of that kind of package design.
ReplyDeleteI love all the old packaging! These would be good to remove cleanser, I hate having to use so many cotton pads so these would be a good alternative xx

ReplyDeleteWho cares about packaging? It doesn't affect the product whatsoever. I'll keep my eye out for these.
ReplyDeleteDo these have an FSC logo on them? I only ever use organic cotton pads but would prefer something like this x

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try these, I get through so many cotton wool pads in a month, hopefully this will help reduce how many I use!
