It’s also common that most baby wipes are suitable for sensitive skin and skin-related problems or rashes. You can use baby wipes to remove dirt from your toddler’s hands and nails after bathing by wiping their hands and gently wiping it off with a soft towel.

Marketers market these wipes as antibacterial or antifungal wipes made with naturally derived ingredients. Your skin will be left clean and healthy after using them. They are suitable for regular use to remove dirt from hands, face, feet and other sensitive areas.

Some wipes may contain alcohol, which kills harmful bacteria or spores. The alcohol in them evaporates and leaves your skin clean and healthy after using it. There are other wipes which do not contain alcohol to eliminate any bacteria that may be present.

 

4) Facial Cleanser Wipes

They are also great for removing makeup residue on the fingers after applying makeup, especially eye make up remover.

Facial cleanser wipes are gentle on the skin and don’t feel sticky at all. They are mild to use but will leave your skin clean and healthy. Most of these wipes are also pH neutral, which means they are suitable for sensitive skin. This means that you won’t have to worry about burning your skin after using it on your face.

These are great for sensitive skin and people who have allergies to perfumes or strong scents. They are also great for removing makeup when you are in a hurry, so you won’t have to purchase makeup wipes.

However, if you have babies or young children at home, we would advise that you don’t use these wipes for them as they can cause irritation if their skin is sensitive or has allergies to plant-based ingredients.
