Unfortunately, these from Ebelin of the DM have been a bit disappointing. Thought now I got the dupe of the Face Halo pads but no... they absorb the water well but there's some kind of cavity in the pad that will suck up too much water at once. Then squeeze it out and the pad isn't wet enough again 🤭. Can lie on me;). They're also too soft so you don't get your makeup off well enough. The fabric becomes too smooth so it does not penetrate deep enough onto the skin. Face Halo is a lot rougher that I personally like better. This makes me easier to remove all makeup even my mascara. All in all Face Halo is nicer but I still think it's too expensive. OH! and one more tip. Don't buy them from AliExpress (also tried) but these aren't worth it at all. Too small too soft and too slippery. Plus, you don't get them clean easily.
