Is it worth a spot on your shelf?

These cotton pads come in a pack of 165 for applying skincare liquids or removing makeup.

The appeal: A softer feel during your daily routine. Fashionista's reviewer liked how gentle the pads felt and how little lint they left behind. Fashionista review (2018)

The tradeoff: Paying more may not make a big difference. Beauty Skeptic found they worked only a little better than the cheaper pads used in its comparison. Beauty Skeptic comparison (2018)

Our take: Worth considering if you want a softer-feeling pad. If you're happy with the ones you already use, you may be just as happy sticking with them.
