Best Facial Tissue (AKA Kleenex) period
Puffs Ultra Soft & Strong tissues can be sometimes difficult to find, but generally I prefer them to the competition. First, they don't have lotion in them, lotion is nice when you have a cold, but for normal use it just is oily, both on your nose, fingers, and if you put these in pocket or purse, there too, not a good thing. Second, and perhaps most important, these hold together better when you are blowing your nose. It seems a simple thing, but too much of the competition, in efforts to have high tissue counts per box, or save money, produces tissues that are not strong enough, and so you can have "blow-outs". You don't want to be blowing through a tissue when you use it, not a good thing. And more times than not, when one of these tissues makes it into the wash, these will survive, losing a bit of their lint, but not falling apart in a million pieces. That's nice, as try as you might, one always gets missed once in a while, and gets into the wash. In terms of Softness, these are soft enough, the competition from Kleenex and others is pretty much a match there. There is one down side to these tissues, they do tend to have a bit more lint then the Basic variants, but that's only noticeable occasionally, like in very strong sunlight in an enclosed space. Another thing I prefer about these tissues is that they don't smell. Some of the competition goes way overboard, almost make you want to sneeze from the smell. So in summary, the Puffs are just what you want in a tissue, and none of what you don't want. Read more
