Okay, I don't know about you ladies, but sometimes I just hate to wash my face at night. Kind of gross I know, but I just get too tired and all I want to do is go to bed and not take the time to put my hair up, wait for the water to get warm enough to put on my face, wash my face, dry it and put on moisturizer, and any other lotions or things I might be using. It just seems like too much of a hassle. I have tried those face cloths like by Ponds, where you don't have to use water, and I like those because they are quick, but they are expensive and then you are throwing them away when you are done.

I was thinking that maybe I could make my own face cloths like that using thin washcloths. I make my own baby wipes using baby washcloths, so that is kind of where I got the idea. Does anyone do this, or know of a recipe so that I could make my own?
TIA!

I don't know about making your own, but what I do with the Dove type ones is cut them in half. I can clean my whole face with it, and it doubles the amount in the package!

I can relate. In fact, I could have written what you wrote. Some nights, I just want to plop into bed rather than wash my face, but I really try to do it because I love the way my skin feels after I moisturize, and love the scent of it.

I use Cetaphil, usually with warm water and a wash cloth, BUT it can be used without water, too . . . for those nights when you're just pooped.

I hear you! I am always too tired at night to wash my face or floss my teeth. So... I started doing both when the kids are in the bathtub at night. The water is already warm, I'm not exhausted and flossing and brushing then really helps stop me from snacking after dinner.
