Facial Wipes?

[deskrider]

I'm wondering if there is a quality product that's gentle and good for the facial skin that comes in a foil packet or something portable to use as a facial wipe after rides when you may be eating lunch at a restaurant but haven't been home to shower yet? I can't believe the amount of road grime that sticks to my sunscreen during a ride--for that matter I'd like to remove the sunscreen with these wipes too! Obviously I'm not interested in anything with alcohol or other drying ingredients.

I carry a couple of packets of Basis Facial Cloths. I have sensitive skin, and I've not had a problem with them.

I like the Olay wet wipes. Just look for one that says Sensitive Skin. You can put it in a piece of foil, or in a plastic bag. I use them every night to take my makeup off and they are very gentle.

+ 1 for Olay. I used them morning and night while camping in S Mississippi two weeks ago.

I use the Neutrogena Deep Clean Sport (http://www.neutrogena.com/product/deep+clean+sport+on-the-go+cleansing+wipes.do?sortby=bestSellers&from=Search)on-the-go wipes. They are invidivually wrapped in a foil wrapper and the perfect size to throw in my jersey pocket or keep in my workout bag for after the ride.

I'm a big fan of the Ponds face wipes. I have rosacea and they don't seem to irritate my skin at all. You can purchase a travel sized pack that has ~15.

I've been using these as my post-commute "shower".

I like baby wipes for just about everything. They are awesome for cleaning chain grease off my hands, too. Cheap and plentiful.

+1 for the Action Wipes. Martha is totally awesome and the product works really well. Large wipes, they smell great, and they can be repurposed to clean other things.

I use the Ponds wipes at home, but never thought of bringing them along on a ride...I'll have to try that. I do like the idea of the individually wrapped Neutrogena Sport Wipes...I'll have to look for those the next time I'm out shopping.

I like to use Wet Ones in the individually wrapped packages. They have reformulated it so that it doesn't leave a sticky residue and with it being antibacterial it cuts down on blemishes post ride. Also does an excellent job getting chain grease off the calf if you happen to get marked.

Good post. I usually just rinse off my face to reapply sunscreen during a ride, but this might be better.

:p I thought of this today at the end of our mtb event which was pretty dang dusty!

I looked in the mirror & giggled at the sight..:D and thought..Ha ha ...Quite a bit of dirt build up on my face(nose & mouth in particular), legs, feet, arms etc but it's just a part of doing dirt time..;)

So in answer to your question..no facial wipes for us on the dirt :D and no way am I going to carry anything that removes the evidence! The staff at the cafe I go to after know me now & don't bat an eye when i show up covered in dust :)

I used Ponds wipes. I keep some in my bike bag as well as my purse, they are great for post-ride cleanup, especially if our group goes out for food after a ride.

I use Wet Wipes. They pack small and light, and won't dry out in the packing if left in a bag for a loooong time.

Me too. They're also good for a quick wipe-down of the bike. We buy in bulk from Sams.
