Rated 5 out of 5 by JessicaS9 from Gentle and Effective Huggies Skin Essentials Wipes are a wonderful change from other popular wipes. These wipes are mostly water and are nice and thick. There is no alcohol in them. They smell nice too. These can be folded and used again. A great product.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Rebs6 from Huggies Wipes I received the Huggies wipes to try out, and in my opinion they’re not my favorite. They are a little too dry for my liking. Overall Huggies brand remains my favorite for diapers for my daughter.

Rated 4 out of 5 by OTMAVEN6 from Works pretty well Our baby has sensitive skin so we're always on the hunt for wipes that work well with his skin. These wipes are thick and clean well. We haven't noticed any negative skin reactions since switching over to these. We plan to continue using these in place of our usual wipes and hope for ongoing good results!

Rated 5 out of 5 by VEILLETTE866 from Love! These are amazing. I can't say enough good things about this product. They are super thick and absorbent so you only need to use one, two for a real mess. They stayed together well and the quality was outstanding.
