Campanelli FreshFace towel - wow!! Rave

Mrsq2022 · ‎03-10-2010

I purchased this beauty set A284209 which includes a variety of products as well as a Campanelli FreshFace makeup remover towel. I didn't think much of these towels when I saw them online before....but wow! I can't comprehend how this towel works so well!

It removed my entire face of makeup including mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow. I used just one corner of the towel and the makeup came off gently and effortlessly. No raccoon eyes, just swiped the towel under each eye gently and it removed everything that remained after I had wiped off my mascara.

Does anyone else use these towels? I've been using those makeup remover towelettes to remove my makeup each night for years so to think that these microfiber towels can do the job using only water and no chemical is just shocking to me. I don't use a heavy oily foundation (just the BE complexion rescue and a little mineral veil) but the magic it did on my eye makeup was enough to impress me. I have not used waterproof mascara, so can't say that it works with waterproof.

I'm thinking about ordering the set of 5 towels A340743. The reviews are just as I would expect - that these are little hidden gems

I think this set A284209 is well worth $24 for the towel and lip products alone, but wanted to rave about this FreshFace towel because the results were so darn unexpected to me!

I have not tried the Campanelli microfiber cloths. My daughter buys microfiber makeup remover cloths at Walmart. They have some really ciute designs. Three towels come in a pack for $2.35. She loves them, says them remove all her makeup including mascara and eyeliner with no irritation either. They launder great too.

@Mrsq2022,

I have one of those PLUSH mf towels for makeup removal. It's not Campanelli but it's made of that same fiber. I love it. Works really well and gets all of my makeup off quickly.

That towel set is a steal! I paid around 14 for ONE towel. Mine came in a package that said it was "antimicrobial" ..what ever and it never gets stained!

I might have to get Campanelli's set. Thanks for the rec.

Do you understand how they work!?! LOL It is the strangest product to me! I expected to need to add soap or a cleanser...but was shocked when it wiped my makeup right off with tap water!

The kit I purchased came with a brown one and I think that I will pick up the pink set. They are large towels and you could easily use one towel for 3-4 evening cleaners using a fresh section of the towel each night.

I'm so glad that someone else has good experience wit these because after 3 nights, I suspect it's a "game changer" for me. I can bring one of these towels when I travel and use it each night instead or carrying around a little bottle of eye makeup remover, cotton balls and face towelettes...

So, is this cloth just for the makeup removal step prior to cleansing or are you considering it an all-in-one type thing, makeup removal and cleansing altogether?

@Mrsq2022,

I'm not exactly sure how these towels work. The fibers are super tiny and it's these fibers that pick stuff off your skin. When I read that they "clean your pores" I was sold on them. At first I thought the towel would be like any other microfiber towel. But I was so wrong! I also read somewhere that they are good for acne-prone skin because they clean your pores.

btw...I just placed my order for that towel set. Thanks.

How can a cloth clean your pore when it's just being rubbed over the surface of the skin?

I don't really know yet. They are really strange to me, and I'm still having a tough time comprehending how they work.

I wore a full face of makeup today with BE complexion rescue (this is a lightweight gel foundation) with mineral veil, mascara, eyes, etc. The towel wiped everything off of my face and my face appears bare. I just swiped a cotton ball covered in Paula's Choice BHA liquid all over my face and the cotton ball looks pretty clean, just a very faint tan if on the cotton after wiping all over my face (I've also been fake-tanning so I'm not really sure whether it is makeup or skin-stain...I'm not a good trial subject right now with my fake tan)

My eye makeup is completely gone. Not a trace left.

I'll continue to experiment with different foundations, but the towels are worth every penny to me even if I only use on my eyes, and clean my face with a cleanser afterwards, but I'm not actually sure you NEED a cleanser.

@SilleeMee I ordered the purple! Super cute. I wish that they had a video up for this product. It feels like cleansing your face with a stuffed animal lol.

@JeanLouiseFinch,

I really don't know how it does it. Has something to do with the tiny fibers in the towels. They are so small that they can get in small places. I have found that after I use mine my white cosmetic pad that I use for my toner has nothing on it! Completely white.
