Rated 5 out of 5 by Morgan2 from Super soft and non irritating I love these wipes. They’re moist and wipe everything away. You don’t need too many wipes either. They don’t rip like other brands. So your hands stay clean. They have a light scent nothing too powerful. I definitely will be purchasing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Laughter8 from These are incredible They don't roll on the skin when using, like cheaper baby wipes do. They are sturdier and do not rip, unless I want them to rip. They have almost no scent. I found myself using less than I normally would have to use.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Stormie3 from A bit on the dryer side The wipes are thick and soft, which I like, however I feel like they could be more wet. It takes more wipes than I’d like to clean my baby’s bum. Aside from that issue, they’re great! They truly are fragrance free and super gentle on sensitive skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bekah8 from Love these wipes These wipes are amazing! They are not dried out at all and they claim to be gentle which they have proven to be. These are great if your baby has sensitive skin or if you’re just wanting something that is not too harsh on their skin when cleaning them up. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a good wipe that’s easy on your baby’s skin.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Evie6 from Great ingredients, not biodegradable I received this item for free from Home Tester Club in exchange for my honest review. This item doesn’t contain any ingredients that upset the skin. It also has the National Eczema Association Seal of Approval! My only complaint is that it is not biodegradable (or flushable) and it should be better for the planet! I wouldn’t buy this product because disposable wipes shouldn’t fill up our landfills.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jkleinhardt4 from Great wipes for sensitive skin I really enjoyed these wipes! They work great, are thick enough not to have to use multiple wipes and are safe for sensitive skin. My daughter battles eczema and can only use wipes that don't irritate her skin. These wipes are great for that reason alone!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mariaa553 from Excellent Wipes! I was really excited to try these as Huggies usually has good products and these wipes were no exception and did not disappoint! I really love that these are 20% thicker compared to Huggies Simply Clean Wipes, it really helps get everything clean and as a result you don’t use as many wipes as you would. I am so happy these don’t have harsh ingredients, are free of fragrance, and pH balanced to help maintain heathy skin. I can really tell these help with sensitive skin and it’s phenomenal! I would definitely recommend this product to others!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sylvia7 from Soft and good for sensitive skin Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes are amazing. They're thick and soft, and they don't leave any residue on my baby's skin. I also love that they're hypoallergenic and free of harsh chemicals. As a mother of many kids I’m always looking for wipes and baby products that aren’t harsh or harmful to my children’s skin. I highly recommend these wipes to any parent looking for a gentle and effective way to clean their baby's. These wipes are so great that I also use them on my face when removing makeup and it does an amazing job.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mandy7 from Huggies wipes Huggies is always my go to brand for my son. I love that these wipes have no fragrance since my son does have sensitive skin. The wipe material is a perfect in between its not to soft to the pint where it rips apart when wiping or pulling out of package and not to rough to the point my son gets irritated. These are JUST RIGHT! Ill refer to everyone!

Rated 5 out of 5 by LilCrumSnatcher2 from Essential for Baby Care I can't say enough good things about Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes! As a parent, finding the right wipes that are gentle on my baby's skin and effective at cleaning is crucial, and these wipes exceed all expectations. First off, the texture of these wipes is incredibly soft, perfect for delicate baby skin. They are moist enough to clean thoroughly without feeling too wet or leaving any residue behind. I love that they are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, which gives me peace of mind knowing they won't irritate my baby's skin. Another standout feature is how strong and durable these wipes are. They don't tear easily, even when dealing with messes that require a bit more scrubbing. This strength also means I use fewer wipes per diaper change, which is great for my budget. The packaging is smartly designed with a flip-top lid that seals securely, keeping the wipes fresh and moist. It's easy to grab one wipe at a time, even with just one hand, which is a huge plus.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tiff9904 from Quality wipes for sensitive skin The only wipes that I do not need to keep pushing back after pulling. The packaging makes it so easy to pull only one sheet at the time. Very gentle on my baby’s skin and the sheet is thicker than other brands out there.

Rated 5 out of 5 by PrincessPeach2 from So in love! I am absolutely in love with these. I love how thick they are. How easily I can hold them in my hand and not have them crumple or make my hand run through the disgusting mess in the diaper. I love that they are 99% water and no harsh ingredients. As well as the fact that they have no fragrance in them. My child is very sensitive to fragrances. I also read that they are accepted by the National Eczema Association and I thought that was just wonderful my smallest child does not have eczema but my older one does and I can only wish that I had this when he was younger. I will absolutely be buying these and recommending them to my friends. Thank you so much for showing me my new wipe. I am also considering them for myself to use as face wipes!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Fatema6 from Good and essential thing Huggies Skin Essentials wipe is one of the best that I used before. It contains water and no ingredients and when used I feel its softness. One wipe is enough for one time because of its thickness. Thank you Home Tester Club for sending this amazing product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by ValerieT4 from Great as always I love these wipes. Perfect on the go and just always come in handy. They are not too wet nor dry and help to keep my sons skin clean without drying it out. Wipes don’t have harsh scents or ingredients, which is amazing, because my son has sensitive skin. Overall, I think it’s a good choice for kids wipes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Eiii279 from Love them I love most things Huggies. These did not disappoint. I love the small packaging. It fits into the babies bag without taking up too much room. Also love the opening. It’s well constructed and not something that will break easily. I also used one to clean my pups paw and she didn’t have any irritation/reaction to them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Berettama3 from Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes These wipes are amazing. I love the thickness of them and that they're 99% water so I don't have to worry about what I'm wiping my child with. He seems to really take to them during his diaper change he didn't have any issues that I'm seeing they felt very good to use very sturdy reliable. I'm actually surprised at how good these are and these will actually be a normal purchase now that I know being able to try them how good they are and how my child reacted to them I'm pregnant now with our second child and will incorporate these wipes on a regular basis now because I prefer water-based wipes thank you so much for letting me try these.
