Rated 4 out of 5 by Amanda10 from Strong but soft The Huggies Skin Essentials wipes seem to be very strong. We have not had any problems with them ripping during diaper changes. They also seem to do a good job without damaging babies skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JetsetterJ5 from Better than original I really like this version of Huggies wipes it’s softer than the original ones. And have a lot more moisture. It does a really good job cleaning my baby’s bottom and doesn’t cause dryness or irritation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Elizabeth2 from Love these! These were great wipes for my little one. I loved that these were thicker than the regular ones because those ones tend to rip easily but these ones do not! I also love that they don't have any harsh ingredients or fragrances so I know there better for my newborns skin!
