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?

Additional product information and recommendations

Guests are saying

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.

    Not what it used to be

    I used to get 3 weeks to a month out of one of these. I got out a new one on Feb 1 and by the 6th it was in worse shape than the one I had just thrown out. By the 8th, it had a hole in it, which had never happened before. Change them back!

    Canada-made version is the best facial buff and nothing else compares!

    Please bring back the one made in Canada! This is hands down the best facial buff. The quality of the Canada-made version is amazing and nothing else compares. I can’t live without it!! I use it every morning and night, and it cleans my face so well. My skin feels deeply cleansed and refreshed after every use. Please bring back the Canada-made version!

    Bring back the OG Buffs 😭

    I used to love these facial cleaning buffs. Stocked up, recommended them, the whole thing. Then the material changed, and now they feel like some Temu brand version of themselves. They’re thinner, slippery, and kind of just… skate around my face instead of exfoliating it. The old ones actually did the job, these feel cheaper and way less effective. If the original material ever comes back, I’m in. Until then, I’m out.

    i want that old thang back

    i rarely leave reviews, unless i have an exceptionally good or exceptionally bad experience with a product or service. in this case, it’s the latter. the reformulation of these is awful, as they are way too thin now and fall apart after one use. y’all have reformulated these so many times over the years and frankly i’m tired. please just MAKE AN ASSORTMENT OF TEXTURES available instead of reformulating them for everyone. as a black male, i’ve historically bought these specifically because they were very abrasive. people who have thicker skin like myself, tend to need more texture to slough away the dead skin cells. please consider us next time y’all wanna mess with the formula. tysm 😬

    Not good!

    I’m not sure what happened with these, but they literally hurt my skin. I bought these in the past and I don’t have to buy them that often so I was very surprised to find that they are as hard as a scratcher that you would clean your pots and pans with. Very unhappy with this purchase! I would give a zero if I could.

    Not effective.

    These have changed. They are too soft now and not effective for exfoliation. They are thin and fall apart after only a couple of uses. The old version lasted for many many uses. I will not purchase again.

    A great face scrubber. Lately they have thinner, softer sponges in a package or thicker, rougher sponges. Not sure why the difference. I used to buy them and use the drive up pick up method but when I need to purchase these I go in the store to make sure I get the thicker sponges. They have gotten a bit pricey like everything else.
