Rated 5 out of 5 by Jade3 from Very pleased Let me say I was not expecting too much from these wet wipes. I've noticed the more natural a product is, the less efficient. I was absolutely wrong! These were gentle and powerful. They cleaned up my daughter's diaper messes wonderfully and were safe for her sensitive skin. Also I used some to remove my eye makeup and they work great. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lolalyyn7 from Hugs for huggies! Very well moisted and definitely thick which is great for #2 diaper changes especially as they get older, very durable!They of course have the famous huggies wipe design on them and I don't know how they do it but the design doesn't Eggert the wipes texture.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2xboymomma9 from Gentle yet durable These wipes came right on time for me and my baby as he has started pureed foods and its getting messy. These wipes help keep his hands and face clean after learning to eat and his bottom clean long after the food is gone. Also, since they are so safe to use I don’t feel bad using them on his hands since he often keeps them sticky from teething. Plus they are so well made that they can clean up high chairs without ripping. I have tried many store brands that cant do all that these can. I love this and will be buying some to use from now until he is a big kid.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lanny1 from Very soft These were super thick and soft, glide very well and smell great. There is a reasonable amount of wipes I personally pay little for things and the supply is not enough for the price but the quality is great so if your into paying a decent penny for quality these are a great option

Rated 5 out of 5 by Aaronsgirl5 from No chemicals! Let me start by saying I absolutely love that these wipes have no chemicals in them. These wipes are nice and wet and clean well. It is basically like a disposable washcloth. I wish these were available when my older children were babies.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Rachel292 from Huggies skin essential wipes These Huggies wipes are thicker than the regular Huggies wipes which I stopped buying because of how easily they would rip when using. These wipes are more durable and come out easier in my opinion as well, the only thing I dislike is the opening circle, I find that these end up never closing fully and drying out the wipes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by ApolloBeauty1 from Highly Recommended for all I’m loving the Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes, they are thick wipes, but not overly saturated/wet and smell wonderful. Gentle and fragrance-free, perfect for sensitive skin. Perfect for little ones and adults. I find that they are effective at cleaning without leaving residue behind. Perfectly convenient and easy to use on-the-go. I highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by samanthakay2 from Excellent wipes These wipes work great. They have just the right amount of moisture - enough to clean effectively but doesn't leave baby feeling wet afterwards. They are gentle on my newborn's skin and I appreciate that they are unscented. I was shocked that I was able to clean a particularly dirty diaper with just one wipe, making them a great value. I will continue to use these wipes in the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Charli3 from Gentle and Effective I couldn’t be happier with their quality. These wipes are incredibly soft and gentle on the skin, making them perfect for sensitive areas. They clean effectively without leaving any residue or causing irritation, which is a huge plus for anyone with sensitive skin. The packaging is also well-designed, with a resealable lid that keeps the wipes fresh and prevents them from drying out. I love that they’re fragrance-free and made with natural ingredients, so I feel confident using them on my family. Highly recommend these wipes for anyone looking for a reliable, gentle, and effective wipe!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Callmepink201310 from I prefer Huggies I've tried a few different baby wipes brands and I prefer Huggies. The have more moisture and they are thick and soft. It's my go to. These were unscented but my preference is the cucumber scented ones they are so refreshing. We use them for the baby but also for the adults.

Rated 5 out of 5 by WhitP44 from Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes Looks smell and feel amazing! I was waiting to give them to a friend with a baby, but she took so long to come and get them, I ended up taking them to work where I tend to sweat heavily at my dirty job. They were just what I needed as opposed to rough paper towels.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Javi6 from Clean ingredients for my babys skin When I saw this product existed, it never called my attention because I thought it wasnt gonna be as effective as other brands but I was wring. The peace of mind that I am using a very clean product on my baby and its still effective as your regular wipes makes me for sure to prefer this one next time!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Brittany10 from Always love Huggies wipes!! I have always used Huggies wipes! I used them on my son and I also use them on myself. They make me feel clean and they get the job done. I think that maybe the wipes could have a little bit more of the solution on the wipes for a cleaner feeling but overall I love these!
