The Tarp
This minimalist tarp tapers in width to provide more coverage where you need it and less where you don't. The curved ridge and edges produce a taut, wind-shedding, pitch in the classic a-frame configuration.
- Tapered shape uses space efficiently
- Curved ridge and edges provide a taut pitch
- Recycled fabric option
- Silpoly won't sag when the temperature drops
- Lower water retention than SilNylon
- Reflective tie-outs
- Great for partnering with your Bug Bivy or our 1P Bug Shelter.
Tie-outs
Perimeter tie-outs are located at each end of the ridge (2), the corners (4), and the midpoints of each side (2). There are hang loops located at each end of the ridge (2), the middle of the ridge (1), about 12" in on the ridge at the head end (1), and about 10" in on the ridge at the narrow end (1).
There is an additional tie-out (1) on the ridge about 10" in from the narrow end to allow the option to pitch with an improvised rear beak. To make the beak, move the guyline from the rear apex to the shock cord loop on the ridge tie-out. We recommend using a fastline clip (included in the optional rigging kit). Stake out the rear corners so the rear edge is pulled taut between the corners.
Note that the color of the UltraGrid reinforcements may vary from what's shown.

- Bug Bivy: Y-zip, Chest zip, Ridge zip
- Wind Bivy
- Simple Tub
- Tub-floor

Ouch!! Update: Mold inside?
Update: I reduced my three star review to one star due to finding black specs all over lid inside my second jar with some black specks on the top pads. Mold? Mildew? I don't know have mold in my cabinets and I keep this in my top vanity drawer which is on its own wall nowhere near the tub or shower. I was so disgusted I threw out the whole jar plus my third one. I hate to write a bad review on a product that is such a good value and so needed in this market. Maybe it's just a one-off but either way I will not be repurchasing due to the soapy, stinging pads - mold or no mold. My conscience is telling me to warn people.
Original review:
They sting like there is micellar water in them? Plus soap. They are very sudsy and make you feel like you have to rinse your eyes before they dry out, which defeats the purpose. They do work well to get mascara off but so does soap. Sadly will not replace the old Almay oil-free remover pads which I have used for years. Have not found a good replacement for my dry, sensitive eyes. I will have to use them on other parts of my face but not my eyes.

My last batch has changed - be aware!
I have used these pads for several years now. They are generally very good and do the trick. I don't even look at other products because they are so good.
However, in this last order, they no longer have a smooth side and a bumpy side. They always had the different texture which helped in using them. I agree they are a little small which I have gotten used to, but now with both sides being smooth, they are much harder to use to wipe. Plus you don't have the advantage of the texture. This is a dowgrade for sure.

Oil and fragrance free for sensitive skin
Oil free which is good for contact lens wearers. Relatively thick textured material so I can use just one pad for both eyes. Ok for sensitive skin with no fragrance. I've used these for years and the quality has remained consistent despite the reasonable price.

A 5-star product is now barely 2-stars. Shame!
I have used these makeup remover pads for years as I wear contacts and have sensitive skin around my eyes. However, the last 3-pack I ordered (Feb 2026), the pad is noticeably sub-par. They are much thinner, there is no quilted texture on one side, and they roll up immediately when you start to rub your eyes with them. In addition, I have to use 4-5 pads to get everything off vs. previously I could easily just use one on each eye. Obviously I will go through them much faster and every time I use them, I get frustrated by how bad the quality is now. Another product victim to shrinkflation and using cheaper materials, but charging the same amount or more than before.
Do they do the job removing the makeup - yes.
Do they do so without burning my eyes or leaving an oily residue - yes.
But knowing how great they used to be, I can only give the current product 2 stars.

Excellent product!
I have used this product for years but since retired much less. However when I actually needed it again I couldn't find it anywhere and when I did buying just one was pretty expensive. So I decided to wait until the price dropped...but it never happened. I never even thought of trying Amazon but I did and got an amazing deal of a 3 pack at a very reasonable price. The oil is rich, soothing and so emollient and cleans my brows and eye lashes perfectly! I keep one in my fridge which is especially soothing during warm summer days and helps to reduce under eye puffiness. Accolades to Amazon...you never let me down!
