Rated 5 out of 5 by Shannon3 from Comparable to Kirkland wipes These baby wipes are one of my new favorite to use. It's fragrance free and doesn't cause a diaper rash on my baby like a majority of wipes do. It's super thick that it won't break so I don't need to worry about poop. It also remains moist and hasn't dried out on me yet, even with me leaving it in the car. Highly recommended!

Rated 5 out of 5 by AliM4 from Great Wipes for Our Little One! I’ve tried many, many different types of wipes over the course of raising kids and these are standouts to me! They feed well without getting stuck, they don’t have any pungent odor, they didn’t irritate my son’s skin, they stay perfectly wet in the package, and they work great. That checks all of the boxes for me! I would recommend these to all parents!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Myamoon16 from Good enough! These wipes are gentle on the skin, which is perfect for my little one. Plus, they’re thick enough that I don’t need to keep grabbing more , just one or two does the trick. I love that they’re fragrance-free, too, so no worries about irritation. Just a heads up, these aren’t flushable, but it’s no big deal. They’ve been a total lifesaver for us!

Rated 4 out of 5 by awat58 from Very thick and gentle These baby wipes are so thick and gentle on the skin. It has a quilted feel that helps remove things from the skin effectively. They are also large sized wipes so you don’t have to use multiple wipes. My only complaint is that there are only 24 wipes in the pack.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Monei8 from soft, gentle, and fragrance-free great option for parents looking for a soft, gentle, and fragrance-free wipe to clean their baby's delicate skin. The wipes are made with 99% water and a touch of natural aloe vera extract, which helps to soothe and moisturize the skin. The wipes are also free of parabens, phthalates, and alcohol, which can be irritating to the skin. I have been using Huggies skin Essentials baby wipes for a few months now, and I am very happy with them. My baby's skin is very sensitive, and she used to get rashes from other brands of wipes. But since I started using Huggies skin Essentials baby wipes, her skin has been clear and healthy. The wipes are also very thick and absorbent, which makes them easy to use. I also like that they have a soft, rounded edge, which helps to prevent irritation. Overall, I highly recommend Huggies skin Essentials baby wipes to any parent looking for a gentle and effective way to clean their baby's skin

Rated 4 out of 5 by Sadie7 from Good for Sensitive Skin The product didn't worsen my son's diaper rash by any means, but I don't believe it was as gentle as the water wipes because he fussed a bit when I was wiping him with these wipes. However, they worked, and they did not irritate his skin at all when he didn't already have a diaper rash - this is a great accomplishment given that my son suffers from very severe eczema.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Varsha2 from My daughter loves it The Best Ever! Trusted brand as well. They aren't overly scented or overly soapy. They are gentle enough for use at every changing. Nice and thick fabric, soft and stays moist and definitely would buy again.
