Enjoying two products from this brand.

1. Skin quenching sleeping cream: says night cream, I use day and night.

Non-greasy, soaks in feels incredibly hydrating.

2 Micella Make-up Remover Wipes: Wonderful! Hydrating as well.

Plan checking more products from Simple: Walgreens, Bogo this week.

I am an ingredient snob, unfortunately they use mineral oil and C 13-14 Isoparaffin which is also mineral oil, I dont buy anything with that in there, just my personal preference. Not in all of their products, though.

I have used some of the skincare and some I liked and some I didn't.

I did not care for the Cleansing Facial Wipes or the Micellar Cleansing Water but I don't ever care for wipes or any cleansing water. I got the wipes free so figured I'd try them. They just weren't for me.

I have used the Foaming Cleanser but it wasn't my favorite. My skin got a little too dry with it.

I am using right now and do like the Protecting Light Moisturizer with SPF 15. I go back and forth between this day cream and a Garnier day cream.

@Sweet_Serenity

I have been alternating their Face Gel Wash with Isomers Tea Tree Oil cleaser & their Water Boost Cleansing Micellar Water.

I bought these 2 products after trying the eye makeup cleansing wipes I received in a Targer Beauty Box. I really like the products. My face has been more hydrated after using them.

Looks like I need to try their Hydrating Booster & their Skin Quench Sleeping Cream.

They have a $3 off coupon on their site.

@Shelbelle I know you said they are not in all their products but I don't see it in any of the ones I'm using. Which products of theirs have that?

Of course they don't have the ingredient label available on their site so I looked at some on Walgreens site.

I know they say mineral oil can clog the pores & damage the barrier that increases water loss.

I looked at a few of the product ingredients on the Walgreens site randomly, the few I looked at either had mineral oil or isoparaffin C13-14 which is the same thing as mineral oil.

@Shelbelle Guess it does not matter if it's not in the ones I'm using. I don't need clogged pores that's for sure or anything that will increase water loss.

My skin was so dry no matter what I used until I started using the Boost Miceller Water. My face looks & feels so much better using it.

It's keeping all these dry patches I seem to keep getting on my face at bay.

Mineral oil gets a bad wrap. Most pros say that highly refined cosmetic grade mineral oil is fine

I Iike and use the wipes nightly. Dimitri's are good but too expensive.

Returned Simple products, Felt hydrating, then shortly after my face felt dry.

Thank you, Sharing your thoughts, and experiences. Have a wonderful day!

@Sweet_Serenity So sorry you did not have good luck using their products. I have not tried their Skin Quench.

I received their eye wipe pads in a Target Beauty Box. After using those I wanted to try the Boost Hydrating Micellar Water. It really helps my face. After I wash my face with their Gel cleanser or Isomers Tea Tree cleanser I wipe it across my face & blot in which leaves it looking & feeling moisturized. That's all I have on my face right now.
