Q: Why are the buff sponges so much thinner and softer than the previous ones? They aren't as good at exfoliating and cleaning as the older sponges. The price went up and the quality went down. I don't mind paying more, but why change a good thing?

A: They’re perfect for me since i have more sensitive skin. The old ones scratched my face and most of my friends and i love these!
submitted byJefffy - 2 years ago
A: I agree! Have been using them for years, and the new ones are awful!
submitted byMichelle R - 2 years ago
A: AGREE! The new ones suck! Can only be used 1-2 times.
submitted byJo - 2 months ago
A: Totally disappointed with the new product being sold in the same packaging... the new ones are made in China and are terrible quality. The ones previously sold were amazing and made in Canada.

A: Yep, see a lot of people try to use it multiple times and complain about it falling apart but it’s literally called a DISPOSABLE.

Q: What is the size of the sponges?
submitted by Tracy - 6 years ago
A: SMALLER THAN A COMPACT BUT LARGE ENOUGH TO GENTLY BUFF OFF DEAD DRY SKIN CELLS, NEEDING TO BE EXFOLIATED. SOFT AS A CLOUD. I'M IN LOVE BUT OLE TARGET DISCONTINUING THEM!
submitted bydanigordon2 - 3 years ago
A: Hello Tracy – Thanks for viewing our cosmetic accessories! These sponges will gently exfoliate to remove makeup and dirt. They are about the size of a compact. Thanks for dropping by. - Anita
The recent changes to the facial buffs have left many guests disappointed, as they no longer provide the effective exfoliation that was once a hallmark of the product. Guests have noted that the new version is thinner, falls apart quickly, and feels more like a cotton round than a buff. Despite the negative feedback, some guests still appreciate the gentle cleansing aspect, making them suitable for sensitive skin. However, the overall sentiment leans towards a desire for the original formulation to return.

Falls Apart
They have changed this product, and now the quality is absolutely HORRIBLE!! It barely holds together through one cleansing. It’s flimsy and falls apart very easily. I’ve tried several sponges now and don’t apply hard pressure. All of the sponges come apart and don’t hold their shape and are essentially worthless. I won’t be buying these again b/c they’re basically unusable. Please change them back!

Good to bad
I actually love these things but the last times I have bought these the quality of them is horrible. I barely get it on my face and it’s falling apart leaving white fuzzy remains everywhere. Recall them and try again

I have purchased this before and they were much better. These ones are thin and it breaks down the first wash they are cheaply made. It has a new packaging and not very strong. That was a waste of my money. Bring back the other version. my money should be refunded.

The material of the buffs has changed and is absolutely awful. As others have said, they ball up, disintegrate, fall apart, and leave fibers on your face. They also do not exfoliate at all. I won’t repurchase unless Target goes back to the original material/manufacturer.

Falls apart. One use. Awful producf.
Fibers loosen after the pad touches water. Literally disintegrate and leaves fibers all over your face. It is the worst facial pads ever.

Did not get everything in my package I got the face sponge, but did not receive the lip balm. I guess you call it Carmax.

Very happy
Ordering was easy on line. Really like that there’s no extra charge for pick up. A big plus. Not sure how good the puffs are I haven’t tried them yet, but they look like they will work great. Great price too. My order was swiftly brought out to my car. Excellent service. Thank you.

Great exfoliating pad. If you have sensitive skin or prefer a smooth buffer, this may not be for you. It actually gets the dead skin off, but the texture is a little rough. That is why I buy it though, lol. Hope this helps!

Fell apart after one use. Provided no exfoliation on the skin at all. Used to be a much better product.
