Love these things
I live on a pretty tight budget, so I tend to check Amazon reviews whenever buying a new product whether I'm actually buying it from Amazon, or in this case Walmart. However, these were so cheap ($3 for a two pack) that I didn't even bother checking Amazon first. I figured even if they were awful, not a huge loss.
Surprisingly enough, this simple little product is probably my favorite new thing I've tried this year. Very easy to use and very effective. I simply wet both my face and the scrubbie, and applied a few drops of CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, 12 Ounce to the scrubbie. I then worked the cleanser into a lather on the scrubbie, then applied it to my face in a circular motion. I have rosacea and tend to react to anything even remotely harsh. Because they are made of silicon they aren't abrasive no matter how hard you press, yet, somehow, are capable of removing dead, dry skin from your face. My face has never felt softer.
Anyway...time will tell how long they will last, but I suspect, providing you clean them and dry them after each use, they should last for several months, if not longer. I own an exfoliating, electronic type brush and these things perform just as well, without the need for batteries, replacement spinning heads, or worrying that you might get some electronic component wet. Not to mention, these are a fraction of the cost. It is strange to think that a $3 item can actually be better than a $100 one...sometimes simplicity is just the way to go. I will mention one tiny con, and that is that the suction cup (on the back) while great for holding onto the scrubbie while using it, does not really stay suctioned too well to a mirror as it is not strong enough to hold. Not a big deal for me, as I wouldn't really want to store it that way anyhow, but maybe worth noting.
