Rated 5 out of 5 by Vanny9 from 5 star wipes As a parent, I’ve tried my fair share of baby wipes, but Huggies Skin Essentials wipes truly stand out. From the moment I opened the pack, I could tell these wipes were something special. The packaging itself is sleek and convenient, with a flip-top lid that ensures the wipes stay moist and ready for use. But it’s not just the packaging that impressed me; it’s the wipes themselves. Huggies Skin Essentials wipes are incredibly soft and gentle on my baby’s delicate skin. They’re thick enough to handle even the messiest clean-ups without tearing or leaving any residue behind. What sets these wipes apart, though, is their formulation. Infused with natural ingredients like aloe and vitamin E, they not only clean effectively but also nourish and protect my baby’s skin. I appreciate knowing that I’m using a product that’s not only safe but also beneficial for my little one.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Laurent4 from Truly Fragrance Free and Soft These baby wipes are incredibly soft and work pretty well for cleaning sensitive bottoms. I love that they are truly fragrance free, as a mom sensitive to fragrance I can't stand wipes that smell. I wish they were a little more textured and tough for hard messes. My daughter tries to grab wipes and for some reason these aren't very strong and pull apart very easily. However I'd buy them in place of my regular wipes for a decent price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DominiqaP2 from Great product. These nappies are very comfortable and pretty much leak proof. My child seems very comfy in it and she sleeps through the night without nappy changing. It has a good, stretchy bands so it's not to tight. Highly recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Griff8 from Wipes I really like these wipes. I didn’t know Huggies had wipes like these. They’re 99% water which is nice. My child has sensitive skin so other brands, especially ones with scents, break their skin out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gwen334 from Great wet wipes I really have already went through these and I will be repurchasing. The quality of the wipes themselves are great considering it doesn’t have harsh fragrances, and it’s moisturizing as it’s literally 99% water. I only want to buy the best and this is up there.

Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kellykyra87109 from My family and I love Huggies wipes I received Huggies Skin Essentials wipes from Home Tested Club In exchange for my experience and feedback. My family and I have been a fan of Huggies wipes for quite awhile. I used their wipes on my first baby when changing her diaper or to clean up any mild sticky or dirty skin from other activities. We also use them occasionally as wet wipes while traveling or if needed when any of us use the bathroom and if course I am using Huggies wipes for my second child in diapers now. These are a very good quality product that are made to clean and nourish your babies skin. My family and I highly recommend these.
