Sephora's Eye Make Up Removing Pads are Pretty Awesome

Sephora's Eye Make Up Removing Pads

I'm always looking for that next best make up remover pad that is quick, not messy and easy to travel with. I travel quite a bit for my job, so as many of you have read in many of my reviews, product that is easy to travel with is very important to me and I always voice this aspect when I'm doing just about every product review I do.

  I don't like products that I have to worry will break when I travel with them.  Eye make up removing pads or some equivalent are pretty much a requirement for the frequent traveller.  They are easy to transport, can be taken on a plane and great for those overnight plane flights out of country.

I was in Sephora purchasing some product and the sales person told me that the Sephora Make Up Removing pads were good, so I thought I'd try them.

Product Details:
There are 30 pads to the container at a price of $9 which is kinda steep in my opinion.
The pads are pre-moistened (convenient) and are for removing your make up while strengthening and moisturizing your lashes.  

These are actually advertised that they are "ideal for travel".  The product advertisement reads that they are a "formula that includes HydroSenn+, a natural ingredient proven to deliver immediate and long lasting hydration that is suppose to be more effective than hyaluronic acid.  The product contains lash strengthening complex that's rich in flavonoids and olive wood extracts.  It does not contain parabens, sulfactes, synthetic frangrances or phthalates. HydroSenn+ is a plan derived ingredient that leaves the skin feeling."  

My Thoughts:
With all the above advertisement being said, here's what I think....they are very convenient, not messy, easy to travel with and do work for removing eye makeup, however, I feel they are a bit expensive given that there are so many other competing products on the market.  I found it very difficult to remove my eye make up with just one pad.  So, you are talking a 15 day supply (2/day) for $9 which is 30 cents a piece times 2 pieces, so .60 per day.  I don't know, this is a hard one for me to swallow when there are so many other products on the market that serve the same purpose and are quite a bit less expensive.
