Here are the wipes we like… https://gimmethegoodstuff.org/?s=Wipes

What are your thoughts about attitude natural baby wipes or attitude little one (eco) baby wipes?

Oops. I should have read the other comments before I asked my question. Pls disregard.

yes we’ve moved them to Sneaky Stuff, unfortunately.

Yes! I’d like to know more about pampers pure. They get a 1 on ewg but I know that’s not the ultimate resource

Yeah, I agree. It would be nice to have an updated list. Info on pampers pure, hello bello, etc.

This artical is pretty out dated. There are so many new things.

Yes would love to know more about this as they have their version of a water wipe.

I just saw that on my wipes. If you were using them did you switch? If so to what? More research ☹️

Water (wets cloth & carries ingredients), Sodium Benzoate (maintains product freshness), Glycerin (moisturizes skin), Coconut/Cocos Nucifera Oil (moisturizes skin), Sobitan Caprylate (blends oils & water together), Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside (cleanses skin – removes oils & oily dirt), Sodium Citrate (minimizes ingredient odors), Xanthan Gum (maintains uniformity of formula), Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate (boosts freshness), Citric Acid (balances pH)

Hi Vanessa,
Thanks for the question.
Here are the ingredients for the Pampers Aqua Pure Baby Wipes, and the EWG hazard rating for each (ranging from 1-10 with 10 being highest hazard): Water (1), citric acid (2), PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil (3), sodium citrate (1), sorbitan caprylate (1), sodium benzoate (3), and disodium EDTA.

Generally speaking we don’t like any EWG rating above a 2. Pampers Pure Wipes have 2 ingredients with a 3 rating. While these are not horrible there are other much better options out there.

Thank you

Would you mind looking at Natracare organic baby wipes and giving your opinion? I’d like something as organic, pure, and natural as possible, but that is very difficult to find. I looked up each ingredient on EWG and the ones that were concerning to me were Glycerin (rated 2), and Potassium Sorbate (rated 3). It’d be nice to find something with ingredients that were all rated 1, but I’m having a hard time with that. Here is the website with the full list of ingredients for these wipes: https://www.luckyvitamin.com/p-24079-natracare-organic-baby-wipes-50-wipe-s?LanguageCode=EN&locale=en-US&utm_source=google&utm_medium=PLA&scid=scplp73857&sc_intid=73857&utmp_campaign=SC_Shopping_Campaign_CS21_Brand&branded=yes&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5t7UBRDaARIsAOreQthlQx5nkUP9AkgF5HE2s0s_IR3F4CaBrWDCzl1tnIEJ6LCcteufDmYaAk1XEALw_wcB

Thank you so much!

I was wondering about these. Need flushable wipes for potty training.

I have not heard that about Vitamin E and sodium benzoate.

Can you lead me to a respectable source? Vitamin E and sodium benzoate together is cancerous. I can’t find anything from a respectable source to back that up. I know vitamin C and Sodium benzoate together is cancerous.

Do you prefer Waterwipes or the Jackson Reece? And why?

Thank you!

Yay! Thank you!

These actually look pretty good!

I had left a comment before about the latest seventh generation formulation and it didnt seem to post…? Do you consider these good stuff? I currently use jackson reece which are great but seventh seems a lot cheaper….please advise if you think I could switch…

Also, do you have a recommendation for flushable wipes for potty training?!

Thanks so much and keep up the good work!

This is what I use!

New ingredient, but not one I would worry about–but thanks for letting me know!

Looking at the ingredients list for Bum Boosa, it seems as though there is sodium benzoate – is this a new addition to their ingredients? Or is it in a low enough concentration to say that these wipes are in the “Best” category?

Yes, they are Good Stuff.:)

Hi! Any updates regarding the latest version of Seventh Generation wipes?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0067GKHQS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_RJsEzbCFD25VH

I also considered purchasing this to avoid bacteria:

Thank you!

I’m also curious about Honest Wipes after their change. Any other suggestions for wipes with the same texture? All the others that I’ve tried seem thin compared to Honest.

That “parfum” actually only contains natural essential oils. The rest of the ingredients are decent:).

You mean Earth Mama Angel Baby? If so, yes that’s Good Stuff:).

Seventh generation changed their formula when they changed their packaging. I used to use their wipes all the time but they added sodium benzoate which on its own is fine but these wipes also contain vitamin E and when those two are combined they create benzene which is carcinogenic. Apparently whenever a brand you use changes packaging you should recheck the ingredients because they often also change those at the same time. Such a shame.

Thank you

I need some help trying to find a new brand of wipes. Up until recently I was using honest wipes, but due to their recall, it’s not an option. I was wondering if you know anything about seventh generation wipes. They’re affordable (I’m a single mom with 2 toddlers) and say that they’re made for sensitive skin. Also they’re fragrance free, with no alcohol, parabens or phenoxyethanol. My girls have super sensitive skin.
I would love your feedback when you get a chance. Thank you!

I wanted to know what your opinion was of bumboosa being made from bamboo from China?

Also, what your thoughts are about seventh generation’s actual wipe cloth being made of wood pulp, polyethylene, and polypropelene ?

Lastly, the honest company’s wipes are “responsibly made in China.” Have you heard of this phrase?

I would love your feedback on these questions. I greatly trust your judgement, appreciate your blog and refer to it frequently as a new Mom suffering with nuerocism.

Thanks for your kind words. I’d go Water wipes out of those:).

I’m sorry in advance if you’ve already answered this question. Which wipes would you use yourself on your baby if it were up to these? Honest, water wipes, 7th gen., or pampers natural unscented?

Thank you!

I’m also interested in knowing about this too! Thanks so much!

Yes would love to knoe about the boogie wipes!

Boo Bamboo looks Okay. There are a few things I don’t like in Aleva–The PEG chemical and the cocoamidopropyl betaine in particular

Water/Aqua/Eau, Tocopheryl Acetate, Vegetable Glycerin, Bamboo (Bambusa Arundinacea) Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Citrus Sinensis (Sweet Orange) Oil, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Natural Fragrance, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Polysorbate 20, Citric Acid.

or Aleva Naturals?
Aqua (Water), Aloe barbadensis* (Aloe Vera), Cocoamidopropyl Betaine, Potassium Sorbate, Glycerin, Lavender Oil, Lauralkonium Chloride, Didecyldimonium Chloride, Citric Acid, Tea Tree Oil, Citrus Medica limonum Oil (Lemon Oil), Chamomilla recutita Extract*, Green Tea Extract, PEG 40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil.

Hi Darlene! I’m so sorry to hear that and hope you stay in good health. Unfortunately, since I’m not a medical professional, I strongly recommend you consult with your doctor to make sure none of these options are harmful to you.

Thank you

I would go with 7th Generation over BabyGanics if it were my baby.

I was just wondering whether you know if Boogie Wipes are good or not – I am assuming not. Unfortunately, they are the only wipes my son will let me wipes his face with. If they are no good to you, do you happen to know of any other saline wipes that are not toxic? I use the Jackson Reece wipes on his bottom, but he won’t let them near his face :/

Thanks,

Holly

I was just wondering whether you think Boogie Wipes are toxic? They are the only wipes my one yet old will let me wipe his face with when he has a cold. We currently use Jackson Reece for diapering, but he doesn’t like those on his face :/

I look forward to your response!

Holly

One thing I don’t like in these wipes is the cocamidopropyl betaine.

The ingredients are the following – aqua (water), aloe barbadensis (aloe Vera), cocoamidopropyl betaine, potassium sorbate, Laura Loki I chloride, didecylsimonium chloride, glycerin, citric acid, green tea extract, citrus media limonum oil (lemon oil), chamomilla recutita extract, tea tree oil, lavender oil, hydrogenated castor oil

Hi there-I don’t see a list of ingredients on the site. If you paste them here I can weigh in.

The wipes are Okay Stuff–they do have a bunch of synthetics, including sodium benzoate. I haven’t looked into the diapers closely enough to make a call!

How ’bout Nice ‘n Clean wipes?

http://nicencleanwipes.com/index.php/baby-and-toddler/baby-wipes

Here is a list of the ingredients for the wipes: Water, Glycerin, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile) Flower Extract, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Althaea Officinalis (Marshmallow) Root Extract, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract, Sodium Laurylglucosides Hydroxypropylsulfonate, Sucrose Cocoate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Polyglyceryl-4 Caprylate, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate, Decyl Glucoside, Diglycerin, Sodium Citrate, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Potassium Hydroxide, Gluconic Acid, Sodium Benzoate

I would recommend you try Water Wipes (here: http://amzn.to/2cNe5LP). Or skip wipes entirely and use just a washcloth with some water and see if that solves the problem.

Looks fine to me;)

I was looking into some organic baby wipes with the below ingredients. Could you please advise if these ingredients are 100% natural? Thank you!

Purified Water, Coco Glucoside (Plant Derived Surfactant), Guar Gum, Organic Aloe Vera Juice, Organic Glycerin, Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, Organic Avocado Oil, Organic Evening Primrose Oil, Organic Olive Leaf Extract, Organic Calendula Extract, Organic Chamomile Extract, Organic Lavender Extract, Rosehip Extract, Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate, Coconut Absolute.

I am also wondering about the up and up wipes. It’s been challenging getting information on them. I am currently using Pampers sensitive. I had no idea they were so bad. I am looking for a reasonably priced alternative

We will add those to our list for when we update this Guide:)

Not yet–we are bogged down with other Safe Product Guides. But we will update the Wipes Guide this fall.

Any update on your thoughts on Up and Up wipes?

Under “Okay Stuff” Seventh Generation was listed but when I looked at their ingredients, it has both Potassium Benzoate AND Sodium Benzoate. So is Seventh Generation really “okay?” In the comments, I noticed some other people list ingredients of other products that again had both potassium benzoate and sodium benzoate and you said other than the sodium benzoate, it looked ok. I’m just a little confused and would appreciate any guidance! I have been eliminating any wipes that list both those ingredients but I’m not sure if I should be so quick to judge. Should I be concerned about wipes that contain both those ingredients? Thank you in advance!

I have not found any evidence that potassium sorbate (a food-grade preservative) is a problem in the quantities present in these wipes.

Yes, it’s fine to use them on the face.

Thanks for the suggestion! Will add to the list of future research:).

It shouldn’t have a sour smell. If you ordered it from our store, email suzanne@gimmethegoodstuff.org to schedule a return.

I bought a 2go tube of 12 wysi wipes at my local babies r us store to try them out before I order I large case online and I actually really like them. They have a very natural fresh plant like smell when wet and the cloth itself is soft and gets the job done. I plan on buying a case soon. They aren’t as cheap as kirkland wipes but I feel better about cleaning my son with wysi wipes. I think if you purchased their 1000 pack is works out to about 7 cents/wipe I also purchased some of the unscented Jackson Reece Wipes there as well and I like them for when you need something really convenient. For at home I purchased some organic cloth wipes for pee’s and for baby wipe downs when he gets messy.

I don’t like the phenoxyethanol that they contain.

Wow, thanks for putting these on my radar. They definitely look like Good Stuff;).

Haven’t looked into those yet, but will do:)

I’m using Jackson Reece wipe, however, it contains a ” sour” smell.. is it normal or can’t use already?

Thanks.

I also wanted to add that there are other brands such a Green Sprouts Disposable Compressed Wipe Tablets and also EZ Wyp, possibly more but I found these three right off the get go. I think they are all the same but I am just starting to look into them. My plan would be to use them for dirty diapers and on the go while using clothe wipes at home for wet diapers. Also are there cloth wipes that are better for baby and eco friendly? Should organic cloth wipes be used? Where do the companies get their materials and are they exposed to any bad or questionable substances during the whole process from raw material to shelf/home? A guide for cloth wipes and diapers would be great (if you don’t already have them). Also adding a typical cost per unit comparison is really awesome especially for those on a tight budget.

Have you heard of these? What do you think?

Okay that will be great! Thanks so very much. KC

I don’t know those ones, but will look into them when we update the guide.

Yes, I use these for my kids. EWG rates potassium sorbate–a food grade preservative–as a 3, but I have found no evidence that it’s toxic, particularly in small concentrations and when not ingested.

Jackson Reece Herbal and Biodegradable Wipes are now given the score of 2 on EWG. I thought they used to be 1. Did they recently change the formula? Do you still recommend them as one of your top picks for diaper wipes?

Thanks,
Nat

These are both listed above as Okay Stuff.

actually not bad! other than sodium benozoate, looks pretty good!

I don’t know about all brands, Lindsay, but the one we sell in our store (Jackson Reece) is good for about 2 years.

Purified Artesian Aquifer Water , polysorbate 20 , Vegetable glycerin , Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil , Citrus Sinensis Oil (Sweet Orange) , Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract (Organic Aloe Vera) , Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract , potassium sorbate , Sodium Benzoate , Citric Acid

Okay, thank you for all your help! It’s much appreciated. : )

Hi there! I like either variety of wipes (and sort of switch back and forth)–the herbal scent is very very subtle and pleasant:)

Neither is Good Stuff, unfortunately:(. (Phenoxyethanol, sodium benzoate, etc.)

Also, the reviewer comments suggest Costco has changed their wipes again. Are they any better?
http://m.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature™-Baby-Wipes-900Ct..product.11489346.html

They look okay–the only once I’m not psyched about is phenoxyethanol.

here is a link http://www.samsclub.com/sams/bloom-baby-premium-luxury-jumbo-wipes-for-sensitive-skin-640-ct-travel-clutch/prod19911342.ip

try to zoom in to see the ingredients.

Thanks much 🙂

We’ve chosen not to carry Bambo wipes because I actually don’t like some of the ingredients they use:(

Hi Natalia-
I would personally feel okay using Jackson Reece wipes in a warmer, but definitely it’s a good idea to be on the lookout for mold. I haven’t tried a warmer myself.

Hi Natalia-
Unfortunately, no. We sell Bambo diapers, but have chosen not to carry their wipes as I don’t like some of the ingredients they use and think the wipes listed above are better.

Hi there! EWG considers ylang-ylang oil and potassium sorbate to be low-risk ingredients. My research leads me to believe that both are safe. Thanks for asking, and for your vigilance!

Melissa-
I’m so sorry for the delayed response! I only now noticed your comment. Those wipes don’t sound so bad–sodium benzoate is an ingredient that I lot of people worry about, but which I think is of relatively small risk. Overall, this sounds like a better bet than conventional Huggies!

Hi Mella-
I’m not aware of a formula change. Have you tried Jackson Reece wipes? These are the only ones I’ve been really happy with.

Thanks! We will look into it.

Thank you!
Melissa
