We were really delighted to be given the opportunity to test WaterWipes. When I first heard about this product I was really intrigued; they claim to be the world’s purest baby wipe, free from chemicals and consisting of 99.9% water and 0.1% fruit extract. I remember all too well the early newborn days of cotton wool and water which I found quite difficult; the cotton wool balls were too small, the rolls of cotton wool too stringy and I always seemed to spill the little pot of water I’d filled. In short, for me, cotton wool and water was a bit of a faff. So to be able to be able to use a wipe right from the very start is wonderful and makes nappy changes a whole lot easier.
Now, I’m as fussy with wipes as I am with nappies. I like a wipe to be really soft; if not then I find it drags at their delicate skin. I like the wipe to be wet, which sounds obvious, but I’m amazed at how often wipes can feel quite dry to the touch, and I like the wipes to retain that wetness throughout the pack. I can honestly say these wipes ticked all the boxes. They were soft and sufficiently wet. In fact because they were so wet, I felt that you needed to use less wipes meaning the pack lasts a lot longer. The wipes are approved by Allergy UK which gives you a real peace of mind when using on your precious bundle and are perfect to use if they have sensitive skin.
The wipes retail at £2.70 in Boots which may seem a little on the pricier side but remember, because of how wet they are, the pack will last you a lot longer. I’ve often seen them on offer in the shops too.
So, if you’re looking for a gentle, soft and natural wipe then I can’t recommend these enough. Not only can you be reassured that the wipes are pure enough for your precious baby but you will also find that these are so much more convenient than cotton wool and water.
